In conjunction with the migration to Cisco SCM, AppDynamics customers will be making use of the Case severity definition as determined by Cisco in the table below.
|
Case Severity |
Description |
|
Severity 1 (S1) |
Critical impact on the customer’s business operations. Cisco’s hardware, software, or as a service product is down. |
|
Severity 2 (S2) |
Substantial impact on the customer’s business operations. Cisco hardware, software, or as a service product is degraded. |
|
Severity 3 (S3) |
Minimal impact on the customer’s business operations. Cisco hardware, software, or as a service product is partially degraded. |
|
Severity 4 (S4) |
No impact on the customer’s business operations. The customer requests information about features, implementation, or configuration for Cisco’s hardware, software, or as a service product. |
