SOme of the similar discussion happened here, which would be helpful.
To answer your questions :
A.> Yes all three of them are separate software.
LMS :--> Ciscoworks Prime LMS is about to be end-of-life software which will phase out in favour of its successor Cisco Prime Infrastructure. This Software was the key application from Cisco to help manage the entire Wired Infrastructure for cisco devices, like Routers, switches, VPN, FW's, etc.
NCS:--> Wireless Control System (WCS) was the LMS equivalent software to manage Cisco's wireless infrastructure. It evolved as a new Generation Network Control System (NCS).
Cisco Prime Infrastructure :--> Cisco felt market demand to have a unified experience to manage both Wired and Wireless Infrastructure, hence Cisco Prime Infrastructure was introduced which is NCS+LMS. Not all features of LMS are migrated, hence customer's are allowed to use LMS latest version 4.2.x for wired network devices, if required.
B.> Prime is now provided with an inbaked Linux kernel to remove dependency from Windows or Unix (Solaris) OS, hence it is only available as OVA deployment image to be used under virtualized environment and can take benefit of virtualized infrastructure.

  • Upgradding Prime Infrastructure version 1.2 and LMS 4.x to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0

    Hello,
    A customer currently have 2,500 Cisco Prime Infrastructure Lifecycle device license using Prime Infrastructure version 1.2 and LMS 4.x. the customer wants to upgrade to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0.
    Does anyone know if it is possible to upgrade to version 2.0 without additional cost? the licenses from
    Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 has to be upgraded or we need only to rehost the VUDI.
    Also could be possible to upgrade LMS 4.x to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0?
    thanks!

    The two features you mention are two big missing ones. Another is full syslog capability. I don't believe CiscoView or day one support via package updates is included either.
    Another is less tangible - the depth of experience and documentation available for LMS vs. Prime Infrastructure (particularly the wired management features). I agree for wireless PI 2.0 looks good. Some new features are coming for wired that look promising but they are new as of PI 2.0 so I'm taking a wait and see on them.
    I hope to get 2.0 up in my lab in the next week or so and will hope to be pleasantly surprised but that's seldom the case with a major new release.

  • When is Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 released, and what does 2.0 offer?

                       We are running Prime Infrastructure 1.3 primarily for wireless management at this point.  We have enough licenses to add all our switches, routers, and firewalls, but we're hesitant to do so until 2.0 comes out.  While there are some features for backing up and configuring switches and routers, 1.3 still seems pretty limited in regards to non-wireless features.  For example, nearly every report in 1.3 is for wireless controllers or AP's, there are no reports I've found relevent for switches and routers.  I've read a lot of blogs, cisco posts, and white papers talking about how Cisco Prime Infrastrucure 2.0 will finally consolidate Prime into a truly all-in-one network management suite that can manage the entire Cisco environment.  Does anyone know when it's officially being released?  Does anyone have an tech sheets on what's new in 2.0, or what its capabilities are?  I want to better understand what 2.0 has to offer, when it's coming out, how to upgrade, so I can start planning for the upgrade and eventually importing all our network devices to Cisco Prime for centralized management.  Any useful information or links would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Christian

    PI 2.0 is in Beta mode for testing in closed group already. However it may still take some time to get released on CCO for FCS.
    I think it is expected to be released between aug-sep. BU has also started working on CPI 2.1, which you can see test uploads on CCO.
    For what does it have for customers?
    > As Cisco have a vision of one network Management software for both wired and wireless infrastructure, which started getting real partially with Cisco PI.
    As WCS got evolved to NCS and eventually to Cisco Prime Infrastructure, but it doesnt yet have full Management capability for wired infra., which is there with LMS.
    With CPI 2.x Cisco plans to blend entire LMS and WCS features together.
    -Thanks

  • Cisco Prime infrastructure Change severity Switches and hubs - link down alarm

    Hi, I want to change the severity of the link down alarm in the Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3, but in the menu Administration -> System Settings -> Severity Configuration i can not find the alarm. Some body knows where is it? o where i can change the severity of that alarm?
    Thanks in advanced.

    Hi Rollin and Daniel,
    the first test i did changing the severity was with a new installation, with no devices added and it worked, when i did it in a Prime infrastructure with devices added it didn´t work, well, for this Prime with devices i upgraded it with the patch for 1.3 version and now it works too, the alarms is ok as the alarm severity, this is the link for the patch:
    http://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=284652876&flowid=38562&softwareid=284272933&release=1.3.0&relind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=&reltype=all
    i hope this helps,

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.2 clients and users IPs not detected

    Hi all,
    I have cisco PI2.2 and discovered all the network and i notified that there are some clients' IPs (Servers or PCs or Laptops or ....) not detected.
    please advice what may be the issue ? 

    Hi,
    does anyone happen to know if that problem is fixed? My currently setup looks like this:
    1. Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1 with updated device pack.
    2. Assurance license
    3. ASA5510 which has enabled netflow. Netflow is being sent to Cisco Prime 2.1
    I do receive netflow raw data within Cisco Prime 2.1 but any graphical display of netflow data is not working. Does anybody has an idea where the problem is? Could it be that the graphical data is only displayed when sending netflow 1, netflow 5 or netflow 7?

  • Prime Infrastructure 1.3 menu and dashboard customizing (via TACACS)

    Hi there
    I know the possibilities of virtual domains and group tasks in Prime Infrastructure. In this case, we have a PI 1.3 and I would like to ask, if someone know if there are ways to customize the following parts of PI:
    1. Define customized templates on PI itself (show or hide different dashlets) and apply them via a TACACS+ attribute?
    2. Show or hide specific submenu items on a menu in the lifecycle theme (for example, I would like to hide the submenu Wireless Configuration under Design)?
    In my opinion, I think this is not possible, but I want to get sure about it.
    Thanks in advance and best regards
    Dominic

    Hi Dominic,
    1.customizing template is possible ,however "show or hide different dashlet is not possible.
    when you create a new dashboard and add new dashlet into it , this will be specific to the use Only.
    2.Unfortunately it is also not possible.
    Thanks-

  • Prime Infrastructure no Interface Tx and RX Utlisation Graph on L2VLAN and PROPVIRTUAL Interfaces

    Hello Community,
    i'm wondering why don't get any interface statistics on subinterfaces or vlan interfaces on a router. On all other interfaces i see the graph.
    Any Idea?
    thanks in advanced
    Alex

    Hi Graham,
    What settings do you have checked when you navigate to here? 
    Operate > Alarms & Events > Email Notification 
    Also you can define within your network what the level of alarming should be through navigation to here: 
    Administration > System Settings > Severity Configuration
    It doesn't take much to become overburdened by alarms from Prime, I set only a couple of parameters as critical for switch and router state, and set to receive emails from those at this time. 
    Regards,
    Brandon

  • Prime Infrastructure Device Configuration

    I recently installed Prime Infrastructure to replace LMS and NCS, but I've encountered an issue with changing device settings.   I had a controller set up to pull configs with no issue, but I had to change the IP to move it to a different VLAN ("it" meaning the controller).   After I changed the IP, the device showed that it was unavailable in the device/operation dashboard in Prime INF, as expected.
    Now, I can't find a way to change the IP address of the controller in any way, shape or form.   It allows me to change everything else, but not the IP address.   The only option I have is to delete the object and add a new one, which will remove access to the saved configurations.
    I'm not sure if this is a bug or that it's defective by design, but if you can't change the management interface IP for a device without adding a new one, you've got a bit of a problem.

    That directory doesn't exist
    ade # ls -al /var/adm/CSCOpx/files/rme/dcma/shadow
    ls: /var/adm/CSCOpx/files/rme/dcma/shadow: No such file or directory
    ade #
    ade # ls -al /var/adm/
    ls: /var/adm/: No such file or directory
    I guess the configs are not in individual files but within the database

  • LMS 4.1 (Windows) & NCS 1.1 (VM) Upgrade to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2

    Hi All,
    Im getting a bit confused about the whole upgrade migration process for the following config to Cisco Prime Infrastructure:
    LMS - Version 4.1 , 500 devices. Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard SP1
    NCS – version 1.1 , 50 devices  Red Hat Linux ( 64 Bit)  (Installation software - NCS-VA-1.0.1.4-small.ova)
    I want to be able to backup databases and migrate licensing from LMS and NCS to one platform. Does anyone have experience of this and could possible guide me thorugh this process. LMS has SAS and NCS has SAU.
    Help will be very much appreciated!!   

    It's a couple of steps but can be done. You may want to reconsider getting off of LMS since the latest Prime Infrastructure (PI 1.2) does not have full feature compatibility with the latest LMS (4.2.3). Have a look here for the comparison.
    If you still want to do it:
    1. Upgrade your NCS to PI 1.2 (instructions). If you're going with a total of 550 devices on a combined license you should use the medium ova file to get the correct server resource allocation. You will need to get the new license from the TAC or via the licensing portal. I'm not sure if you can get the PI license for your LMS upgrade directly via the portal but you do have the entitlement for LMS 4.2 and PI 1.2 (combined licenses not to exceed the original LMS number) if your SAS is current. You may need to contact the TAC and ask for the licensing team.
    2. Upgrade your LMS to 4.2 and patch it to 4.2.2 (instructions). Once you've done that, there is a simple menu command to export your device credentials to Prime (Admin, System, Export Data to PI in LMS and then Operation, Device Work Center, Bulk Import in PI - instruction on Page 18 here). Do that and then in the new PI installation import the devices.
    Verify everything is working and you can decommission the LMS server.

  • LMS 4.0 and Prime Infrastructure..!

    Hi,
    I am using LMS 4.0 and as the licenses got expired I came to know that I need to buy Prime Infrastructure license as LMS 4.0 reached End of life.
    So now if I buy the prime infrastructure licenses, will it work on LMS 4.0 or I need to upgrade? and how can I get the upgrade?
    Thanks..!

    You would need to upgrade.  Prime Infrastructure 1.2 has LMS and WAN buildt in.
    Thanks,

  • Difference between Cisco Prime Infrastructure and Cisco Prime NCS

    Dear All,
    I am currenctly confused in choosing what type of Cisco Prime.
    1.Which one should I choose? should I order Cisco Prime NCS or directly purchase Cisco Prime Infrastructure (since Cisco Prime Infrastructure has the feature of NCS)?
    2, Why does Cisco not just  remove the Cisco Prime NCS ordering Part Number since Cisco Prime Infrastructure already cover the NCS?
    Please advice me

    Hortono,
    I started to write a long and lengthy msg about my experience with this, but instead, let me direct you to the horses mouth.  There have been weekly webinars in regards to Cisco Prime (many differnt products under this headline) including Infrastructure.  I believe the Cisco PI is actually scheduled for Thursdays, so hopefully you'll look at this in time to catch it and ask your questions from the gurus.
    https://ciscosales.webex.com/ciscosales/j.php?J=200462944&PW=NMzhhNjM5OGU3

  • Cisco Prime network and cisco prime infrastructure

    Hi,
    What is the difference between Cisco Prime Network and Cisco Prime infrastructure.
    Please advice.

    I assume you are asking about Cisco Prime LAN Management System (LMS) vs. Cisco Prime Infrastructure (PI).
    LMS is currently the leading Cisco offering for wired infrastructure management. It is the evolution of the earlier CiscoWorks LMS, CiscoWorks RWAN CiscoWorks 2000, CWSI, VLAN Director, original CiscoWorks classic etc. products going back almost 20 years.
    PI is the equivalent Cisco offering for wireless LANs and is the successor to NCS and WCS products.
    The overlap and confusion comes from the fact the Cisco is positioning PI as the overall wireless and wired management platform and gradually introducing wired network management features to make it equal (and eventually exceed) LMS's capabilities.
    There is a comparison table here that shows the current differences. A major new release of PI (2.0) is due out shortly which will close many (but not all) of the gaps on that table.

  • Future of cisco prime infrastructure

    We have upgraded our CiscoWorks LMS 3.2 to Cisco Prime LMS 4.2.3, and we are running another server for Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3.
    My understanding: Prime LMS 4.2.3 is mainly for wired network and PI for wireless network. We have to run two seperate servers to manage the network. Is my understanding correct.
    My question is:  Would Prime Infra still have two parts in future: LMS and NCS? Would Cisco move LMS functionality into NCS in future release? Could NCS be used to manage wired network?

    The roadmap is for more features to be added to Prime Infrastructure until it does everything the old WCS  and NCS products did for wireless (that part is pretty much done as of PI 1.3) and that the LMS product does for wired (not nearly as far along on that path).
    There is a major release (2.0) due out this summer for PI that promises to take a big step towards feature parity with LMS but it will still not be 100%. My experience is that as of right now PI does not have nearly the depth of features (for wired management) - and the documentation on what features it has is very scanty.
    While right now PI can manage a good number of wired infrastructure items, there are a good number of things it cannot do. So LMS will be a current and viable product for the forseeable future (1-2 years out in my estimation). It would be premature at this point for most customers to use a single PI installation for all wired and wireless management. That may change with PI 2.0, but we won't know until we see what features make the cut and how well-implemented they are. Already that product ship date has slipped at least 6 months.

  • Prime infrastructure 1.2

    Hi all,
    Yesterday I installed my first Cisco prime infrastructure 1.2.
    I'm a bit confused now, is this the integrated version of LMS and NCS? At first sight, there's not a lot LMS in it.
    I don't see topology services, netconfig etc.
    Since the release of LMS 4.0 I'm struggeling with the licenses every time. No exeptions this time, our customer has + 100 access points and + 100 switches.
    We have 125 NCS licenses
    Do we need separate licenses for the switches? Or are they included in the NCS license. According to a cisco licensing engineer LMS and WAN are not compatible with Prime Infrastructure 1.2.
    Can anyone clarify this for me?
    Thanks
    Best Regards,
    Joris              

    You are correct in saying there's not much LMS in Cisco Prime Infrastructure.  They are essentially still 2 different products even thought future plans are to combine both wireless and wired mgmt in future releases of Prime Infrastructure.
    Licensing will also stay separate for now even though Cisco is generating LMS and WAN license files with Prime Infrastructure...both of which are useless and have only confused the fact. 
    Certain contracts allow for migrating LMS licenses to Prime Infrastructure but it makes no sense to do that because the current version of Prime Infrastructure has only a couple of LMS features currently available.
