If you notice that Policy Analyzer and Optimizer is not analyzing policies despite clicking Analyze Policy, try the following:
| 1. | From the Security Cloud Control Home page, click Firewall. |
|
| 2. | Navigate Administration > Integrations > Firewall Management Center. |
|
| 3. | Select the On-Premises Firewall Management Center or Cloud-Delivered FMC for which the policy analysis is not happening and choose Workflows under Actions on the right pane. |
|
| 4. | If you see that the latest workflow's Current State shows up as Error, expand the workflow and scroll to the last action whose END STATE is ERROR. |
|
| 5. | Click Error Message under the RESULT column to see a detailed error message or click Stack Trace to see the series of exceptions that occurred, which caused the error. |
|
| 6. | Resolve the error or contact Cisco TAC for assistance. |
