It looks like you're seeing CSCte49301. Follow the release note steps to solve this:
Symptom:
The EssentialsDM daemon hangs in a Waiting to initialize state (as seen in the output of the pdshow command). Additionally, one might see "Error connecting to JRM" in Resource Manager Essentials applications.
Conditions:
This occurs on Windows servers after the patch for KB968930 is installed, and only if the Windows Remote Management service was started prior to starting CiscoWorks Daemon Manager.
Workaround:
Shutdown CiscoWorks Daemon Manager with the following command from the server's command prompt:
net stop crmdmgtd
Delete the following two files:
NMSROOT\MDC\tomcat\webapps\rme\WEB-INF\lib\ctmregistry
NMSROOT\MDC\tomcat\webapps\rme\WEB-INF\lib\ctmregistry.backup
Restart CiscoWorks Daemon Manager with the following command:
net start crmdmgtd
If that does not work, then the Windows Remote Management service must be stopped, and disabled. Then, CiscoWorks Daemon Manager must be restarted.

Changing server for Cisco Prime LMS 4.2 installation

Hi,
I am planning to install Cisco Prime LMS 4.2 with 50 device license on a temporary server. My question is:
Can we install Cisco Prime LMS 4.2 on Server A, applied the license for 50 devices, and then several months later we uninstall LMS on Server A, reinstall it on Server B, and applied the same license for 50 users?
Is it possible and legal to do that? I am worry if the LMS license is binding to the first server's MAC address.
Thanks in advance.

also :vmversion 4.1 and 5.1 both checked, hdd 256, scsi , memory 8 gig,

Cisco Prime LMS 4.1 - Do access points use up a node count license?

Hi Everyone,
I wish to purchase Cisco Prime LMS 4.1, particularly Cisco part # R-LMS-4.1-500-K9 which support 500 Cisco nodes.
We have about 360 Cisco switches/routers/ASA/FWs/WLCs so the 500 nodes license would seem to suffice for now & for future growth.
We also have about 200 lightweight APs that are managed & monitored by our WLC/WCS/Navigator environment.
According to the device support documentation for LMS, it supports and I assume will auto-discover these APs.
Does that mean these APs will use up node licenses on LMS even though management of the APs is done by WLC/WCS? If so is there an easy way to suppress discovery of APs by LMS so we don’t have to purchase extra node licenses for LMS? Or, does LMS offer additional support features for wireless APs not already offered by WLC/WCS/Navigator?
Just trying to understand how many network node licenses for LMS I have to purchase.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Ian.

Thanks but I just heard back from my Cisco SE and he assures me that an AP will NOT use up a license.
I've asked him to verify his answer for me.
Is your answer based on real world expereince (the best there is)? That is, are you running Prime LMS 4.1 and does it indeed use up a license for each light-weight AP it discovers & manages?
Thanks for mentioning options 1-3 but I do not wish to employ any of them. I don't mind buying the additional licenses for APs ... I just need to know if I have to or not.
Ian.

Issues with Cisco Prime LMS 4.2.3

Hi,
I'm trailing Cisco Prime LMS 4.2.3 Soft appliance on ESXi before I deploy it into a live environment and am having some issues.
I've upgraded to version 4.2.3 and the box was working fine after the upgrade however on power it up today the Apache service will not start.
If I look at the LMS application I see this for the Apache service.
"Apache Administrator has shut down this server 0 "
I have tried to starting it.
CiscoLMS42/admin# application start Apache
% Application failed to start
CiscoLMS42/admin#
If I run an application operation debug at the same time I get the following output.
CiscoLMS42/admin# 6 [5343]: application:operation cars_install.c[1145] [admin]: Application initialization initiated for appname: Apache, operation: 0
7 [5343]: application:operation cars_install.c[1146] [admin]: Operations: O-APP_START, 1-APP_STOP, 2-APP_STATUS
6 [5343]: application:operation cars_install.c[1150] [admin]: Verifying app (Apache) is installed ...

3 [5343]: application:operation install_cli.c[281] [admin]: Error while starting application - Application: Apache ErrorCode: -999
I'm at a complete lose as to where to look next, failing anything else I'll have to rebuild it, but it would be nice to know how to get the Apache up and running again.

Rich

Hi Richard,
I see the following:
[ Thu Apr 18 20:53:11 GMT 2013 ] TomcatMonitor After gettingAJPPort : ajpPort = 9009 and host =CiscoLMS42
[ Thu Apr 18 20:53:11 GMT 2013 ] TomcatMonitor theMgr constructor successful.

[ Thu Apr 18 20:53:11 GMT 2013 ] TomcatMonitor Tomcat is not ready, it's coming up Connection refused
It looks like the hostname cannot be resolved. Can you try to add a static entry in /etc/hosts for the IP of the server and CiscoLMS42?
Restart the daemon manager and it should work.

NCS & Cisco Prime LMS 4.X

Hi,
We have got preinstalled Cisco prime NCS appliance, is ts possible if we can insall Cisco Prime LMS 4.X on the same appliance and upgrade the existing running LMS 3.X which is running on Windows server on the appliance or do we need seperate appliance for cisco prime LMS 4.x.

I am not sure if I understand you correctly but if you go for a physical appliance, NCS and LMS both needs their own dedicated appliances. Have a look here:
Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.1 Ordering and Licensing Guide
that's what is written in section " Ordering Information for New Customers" point 5.:
5. Purchase the physical appliance if the desired deployment option is a physical appliance rather than a virtual appliance. Both Cisco Prime NCS and Cisco Prime LMS support the physical appliance deployment option. Each product requires its own dedicated physical appliance. Refer to Table 2.

Migrating from CiscoWorks LMS 3.1 to Cisco Prime LMS 4.2

Hi Everyone
My client was formerly having CiscoWorks LMS 3.1. Recently, they purchased Cisco Prime Infrastructure v1.2, which comes with Cisco Prime LMS 4.2. Can I migrate the database (equipment list, usernames etc.) of the CiscoWorks LMS 3.1 to Cisco Prime LMS 4.2? If yes, how do I do this? Please kindly advice.

Thanks Marvin for your advice. Just one last question, there's a statement in the URL that you've provided
"Ensure that the passwords, HTTPS port and SMTP server details are same in both LMS 3.2 SP1, LMS 4.0.1 or LMS 4.1 server and LMS 4.2 server with Symantec Veritas implementation, while migrating data from non-HA to HA environment."
Does this mean my client need to purchase Symantec Veritas, as well?

Error coming while installing Cisco Prime 4.2 on Windows Server 2008 R2

Hi,
I'm trying to install Cisco Prime 4.2 on Windows Server 2008 R2. While initiating the installation, message box "Error: csv not found" appears, and the installation terminates.
Is there any csv template need to be copied at any location before hand?

Cisco Prime LMS appliance Compatibilty with Cisco Prime NCS

Hi,
Is it possible if we can install Cisco Prime LMS 4.2 in the appliance which is inbuilt with Cisco Prime NCS .
We have PILMS42-1.5K-U license available with us.
Rgds,
Kamal

One can install either LMS 4.2 or NCS on the a physical (software on PRIME-NCS-APL-K9 hardware) or virtual appliance (software installed on customer-provided VM).
The two products (NCS and LMS) cannot coexist on a given appliance instance. This is due to change in the future as LMS and NCS merge under the Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 release but for now they are distinct and separate products with a common approach and similar look and feel but requiring separate servers, whether physical or virtual.
Please refer to the ordering and licensing guide here.

VMware Tools on Cisco Prime LMS 4.1

Hello,
I have just installed Cisco Prime LMS 4.1 from .ova file on a VMware architecture. My customer wants to know if the server is compatible with vmware tools.
I looked over Cisco documentation but it is never mentionned.
Has someone allready take a look into that ?
Thanks,
Regards,
Abel JULIAN,
Nextiraone FRANCE.

Yes, the datastore is located on a remote SAN so the original source won't be impacted by the loss of the ESXi. But in a perfect world (with VMtools), Vmotion will move VM from one ESX to another in case of failure, performance problem etc.
Those functions won't be accessible here, and the VM will need to be restarted manually and reaffected to another ESXi in case of failure. Like I said before, the LMS server is not a critical application so that is not a huge issue. The important is to know that Cisco does not support this feature.
Anyway, I have my answer so it is ok for me, I will notify my customer.
Thanks you for your time,
Regards,
Abel

SYSLOG Cisco Prime LMS

Hi friends,
I have a question about my syslog from Cisco Prime LMS 4.1, the hours from this syslog in the LMS is diferent from my switch log. I dont kown why.. I verified the hours betewen switch y the Cisco Prime is the same(the LMS is over Windows Server 2008R2) . both are the same log but in diferent hours about 5 hours.
maybe I have to configure the hours for Syslog in the Cisco Prime.
Log from Switch
Log from Cisco Prime LMS

If you have LMS, i am not sure, but if you have PI 1.2. Take a look at my post.
Basically, syslog feature doesn't work well. I could see couple of syslog through event / alarm, but syslog itself is not working properly.

Cisco Prime LMS 4.1 - /cwportal/group/lms/lms not found error after login

After upgrading the MDF (Common Services) and the device packages on our Cisco Prime LMS 4.1 installation we now get an error after logging in. The error is as follows;
Status
Not Found The requested resource was not found.
https://X.X.X.X/cwportal/group/lms/lms
The top of the page is the normal menu and anything we choose there works fine so we only see this just after logging in to CiscoWorks.
Has anyone experienced this problem or do you have any idea what might be causing it?
The installation is running on a Cisco appliance.
kind regards,
Michel

It's being access from a client using Internet Explorer 8 (which is what I'm forced to use due to company policy) by access the DNS name of the ciscoworks server and logging in.. It worked previous to installing the patches so I'm not exactly sure what has happened. I'll try to get another PC to test from though to see if it's something to do with my browser or PC.
If I add -configuration to the url it works just fine.
