Cloud Managed Networks

I have an open support case for this already but thought I would share here to see if I can get any faster traction.

I am in the process of building a proof of concept for our network, 2x 8320, 3x 6200 cx switches.  

The biggest issue I have so far is that changes to port statuses are taking absolutely ages to update in central.  I can unplug a port and it still shows as up 24 hours later in the UI.  The same happens if I plug a cable in. It shows as down for ages, despite central still receiving and showing usage stats for that port!

I've already checked firewall for blocked packets, checked the switches are all connected via show aruba-central and all seems fine.

Config changes are being pushed mostly within a few minutes to and from central.  I can even disable an interface using the cli on the switch and the config will be updated in central within minutes, but the port status will still show as up/enabled.

Has anyone encountered this behavior before or is there a detailed guide on troubleshooting central connection issues?  Something critical must not be reliably getting through from the switches to central.

Thanks in advance.

Have not seen that... did you get any further with TAC already?

We are also struggling with slowness regarding CX-switches as well.
VSF-stacks takes several hours to be updated in Central. Not just the first time the stack is created, but also after reboot of the stack. Takes several hours before Central is updated.
Changing name of CX-switches takes hours before updated in Central.

Have created a TAC-case. Hopefully they will find something.
CX and Central is not a good combo right now...
