ACS database sychronization possibility

We have in a central site two ACS 1113 version 4.2 working fine. We are going to install a brand new ACS 1121 version 5.2 in a alternate site. We checked the hardware profile for both ACS (1113 and 1121) in Cisco documentation and the ACS 1113 doesn't support version 5.2 and ACS 1121 doesn't support version 4.2.
For us is mandatory to have the database synchronization (replication). Is possible to do the replication between both ACS 1113 version 4.2 and ACS 1121 version 5.2? what need to do in order to provide replication? any configuration? any additional device?

You're correct. neither we can upgrade 1113 to 5.x nor we can downgrade 1121 to 4.x.
The worst case is replication won't work between inter version that is 4.2 and 5.2.
Hope this helps.

Jatin

  • Cisco ACS database tuning

    Hi
    I would like to know best ways for tuning Cisco ACS database.  Now the database size has grown up and causing performance problems.  We are running Cisco ACS 4.2 on Windows server 2003 R3. SP2
    What is the best possible way to tune Cisco ACS performance.
    What is the best possible design consideration in deploying 6 ACS servers and in replicating mode? Can i use one database for all the 6 ACS servers. Is this feasible?
    Any docs which talks about all these would be helpful.
    Thanks in advance.
    SK

    Hi there,
    About the database size growing issue, I have seen issue similar in the past and could be related to the Service Control option, make sure it's configured Low. This option is located under System Configuration.
    Regards the replication issue, in the past I have seen even 7 servers in cascade replicating fine, although depending on different factors like distance, devices in between, amount of data, etc. The replication may flow may get affected. I am not sure which will be your requierements but using one server to replicate the information to the other units is a good option, I prefer this one than cascade replication.

  • ACS database reporting permissions issue

    Hi,
    I have an issue with my testing of the ACS reporting in two test environments (SCOM 2012 SP1). One has SQL installed on the same server as the MS and the other is a separate SQL install on its own server with multiple MS’s. On both SQL servers
    the ACS database is running on the same server as the other SCOM databases under an instance called SCOM. When we go live the intention is to run on a separate SQL server so not sure if this would still be relevant at that point.
    First off all my normal reports are running fine from the console and from SQL reporting services. My understanding is that the reports are running under different contexts at this point – the web reporting with the account I am logged in
    with and from within SCOM console trying to use the data reader account.
     When trying from the web reporting services or SCOM console I get -
    “An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
    Cannot create a connection to data source 'dataSource1'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection)
    A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote
    connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)”
    With regard to the account I am using for the web reporting. It’s a domain admin account. However what I also did was create a global security group called “SCOMACS” and gave this group “db_datareader” permissions within SQL.
    I also gave the data reader service account permissions to see if this fixed the issue from the console.
    Wonder if anyone could help?

    Hi,
    This seems more like a SQL issue, please make sure your database engine is configured to accept remote connections
    • Start > All Programs > SQL Server 2005 > Configuration Tools > SQL Server Surface Area Configuration • Click on Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections • Select the instance that is having a problem > Database Engine >
    Remote Connections • Enable local and remote connections • Restart instance

  • ACS database

    Hi,
    I have ACS and is running with windows database integration. But i have some issue the users are created in active directory and then acs ask if the user exists and then it hold the users mappings in his own database (normal operation) but the question is when i delete users from active directory the users still in acs and they can still authenticate i have to block the user in acs or delete manually the mappings is there some procedure that when i delete the user in active directory i do not have to delete the user in acs too?

    Hi,
    It is suggest to change the Default retention period of ACS Database of SCOM. By default database retention period is of 14 days, when installing the ACS Services, we can specify days to keep. If you choose to keep the database for long
    time and the drawback is the hard-disk may start filling up very quickly.
    The retention day option is saved under (ID 6) in the “dbo.dtconfig” table of the ACS Database.
    Query SELECT * FROM dtConfig, we can see the retention period.
    The below links should be helpful for you, please refer to them:

  • ACS Database Replication over VPN with overlapping Network Addresses

    We currently have two co-locations each situated in different provinces. We have two ACS servers which we want to deploy at each co-location. All our network equipments are behind PIX/ASA devices. Getting them to replicate over the VPN should be easy but in our case we have overlapping Network Addresses at both ends of the tunnels.
    As per Cisco data does not transit a NAT device when the two Cisco Secure ACS servers communicate and a successful database replication can occur only if the secondary ACS server perceives no change in the IP header or content of the data it receives. So that means we will not be able to Implement NAT to achiever this.
    Has any one of you faced this problem of replicating ACS Database over the VPN with overlapping Network Addresses and was anyone able to successfully solve this issue using a work around ?
    All provided info and comments are greatly appreciated.

    I can help with the 3005 setup if you decide to go that route.
    You will need to add 2 network list entries under Configuration>Policy Management>Traffic Management>Network Lists.
    You will need to configure a local and remote address. The local will be one of the public ip's for the site.(Provided by your ISP)The remote will be the device you are connecting to on the other end.
    You will also need to add a Nat Lan to Lan rule under Configuration>Policy Management>Traffic Management>Nat>Lan to Lan.
    Use a static Nat type. The rest will look similar to my example.
    Source(Local address)Translated(Public Ip Address used in the network local list)Remote(Ip address of the device on the other end)
    Now just create an Ipsec lan to lan tunnel. You will need to agree with the ISP on des type and auth type. Use you local and remote networks you created earlier.

  • Migrating a Cisco ACS Database

    Hi,
    Can there be any potential problems, if we want to migrate an existing Cisco ACS Database to a different physical Server (Keeping the same IP information etc) ?
    We were running Cisco ACS evaluation version for Cisco NAC (CTA) and now want to make it production while moving it to a different server.
    Regards \\ Naman

    Hi,
    I'm not an expert for the ACS but when you look into System configuration you will find the feature 'Database Replication'. With an eval version you should be able to test this feature.
    Cheers,

  • ACS database users and passwords.

    Hi, i need to get all users and passwords from a acs 3.3 database unencrypted.
    How can i do it?
    Could you help me ?

    To get a list of the USers in the ACS database use the CSUTIL tool on Windows platform.
    go to bin directory under the ACS install folder and do
    CSUtil.exe -u
    this will generate a file "users.txt" in the same folder.
    But I dont think you can get the password in unencrypted form.

  • How to migrate multiple ACS database into one ACS database ?

    Hey All,
    we just purchased several companies and as IT/network department, we need to consolidate all the ACS from the HQ and the purchased company into one ACS,  I read the cisco docs. mentioned, I can export the migration file from the old acs and upload it into the new acs serve.
    but my concern is we have multiple acs server, will the the muliple acs migration files overwrite each other during the upload into the new server.
    thanks

    Raghavender -
    I am not an expert on MySQL migration, but you would look to migrate the database to a local Oracle Database and then move that to your Database Cloud Service.  However, keep in mind that at this time you can only access the Database Cloud Service from outside the Cloud via RESTful Web Services, so you might have to modify the application that accesses the database.  Hope this helps.

  • Read ACS database

    Hello There,
    Where does ACS hold all the authenticated user? Is there any way to read these authenticated information?
    Thanks and regards,
    Lahki

    Hi Lahki
    ACS holds users in its internal database (pre v4 and in a SQL Anywhere DB post v4)
    The data isnt human readable, so you need something like extraxi aaa-reports! which can import the database (csutil dump file or cssupport package cab)
    Once imported you'll be able to report on the users, last authentication date, account status etc.
