Events Lifecycle for Resources

Illumio resources progress through the lifecycle stages (creation, updating, deletion) and the Illumio Core records them with the appropriate event types.

About the Lifecycle

Many resources have a lifecycle from creation, through update, to deletion. For example, the events related to a security policy rule (identified by the resource name sec_rule) are recorded with the following event types.

  • sec_rule.create

  • sec_rule.update: Update events record with the values of the resource object both before and after the event for a lifecycle audit trail.

  • sec_rule.delete

Other Resource Lifecycles

Some resources have unique characteristics and do not follow the create-update-delete pattern. For example, workloads have the following event types:

  • workload.update

  • workload.upgrade

  • workload.redetect_network

  • workload.recalc_rules

  • workload.soft_delete

  • workload.delete

  • workload.undelete
