Anyone upgraded a Cisco Concentrators image before?

Hi, I have a Cisco 3015, what is the best way to upgrade the image? The current image info is below, I go this from the web admin tool. If everything is running fine should I update it?
Current Software Revision:
Cisco Systems, Inc./VPN 3000 Concentrator Version 4.7.2.A Aug 18 2005 22:40:40
Type in the name of the image file below. The current image file is vpn3000-4.7.2.A-k9.bin.

I have upgraded images on Cisco VPN concentrators a number of times. The process is relatively straightforward: you download the new image to the hard drive on your PC, connect to the concentrator using the web interface, navigate to the Software Update screen for Concentrator. On that screen it shows what you are currently running and gives you an option to give the name for a new image file. I use the browse option to locate and select the new image from the hard drive of the PC, and then click the Upload option on this screen. The concentrator retrieves the new image that you have specified. After the new image is transferred to the concentrator then you go to the System Reboot screen and you schedule a reboot of the concentrator. The concentrator will automaticalyy boot the new image.
The aspects of this that took me a little while to get used to are that it is not doing a transfer from a TFTP server the way routers and switches do. And that we do not need to configure any boot system commands like the routers and switches do.
I do not believe that there is a clear cut answer about whether you should upgrade the image from what you are running. On one hand it seems to be running ok. On the other hand there have been a number of enhancements and fixes supplied in the releases since the one that you are running. For example the new code supports the new dates for Daylight Savings Time where the image that you are running operates with the old dates. There have been some fixes for security issues. If it were me I would upgrade the image.

Has anyone upgraded the Ironport ESA to 8.5.6-074 and had the issues of Raid status showing unknown?

Has anyone upgraded the Ironport ESA to 8.5.6-074 and had the issues of Raid status showing unknown? After we upgraded our appliances we are having issues with our ESA appliances showing the RAID status as unknown. When we reported the issue to CISCO we were updated there were no issues reported at all. Could anyone please confirm if you have experienced the same issue.

You should see OPTIMAL - meaning the drives in the C170 are in good health/status:

Upgrade from Cisco Prime infrastructure verion 2.0 to 2.1

Request you all to please let me know if i have to install point patch before upgrading the cisco prime infrastructure 2.0 to 2.1.

After moving to 2.1, there is a 2.1.1 point patch currently available.
You should install that and the latest device package (4.0 as of this posting).
As always, the Release Notes are the best place to check the current available updates.

What is the best format to import images into iBA? How should I compress my images before importing? What is the best file format? PNG? Jpeg?

What is the best format to import images into iBA? How should I compress my images before importing? What is the best file format? PNG? Jpeg? I'm trying to figure out the best file format / compression for importing images into iBA. Also, does anyone know how iBA will compress the file? Are the assets attached (like a website) or flattened out? Does anyone know how iBA handles this? Many many thanks to anyone with insight into this.

This question is largely answered by the following thread...

Upgrading from cisco LMS 3.0 to a latest version

Hello,
Upgrading from cisco LMS 3.0 to a higher version.
Whatdoes it require?.
What is the current version?
What do we need for upgrading?
Are there specific codes or new need to buy new products?
In case of buying new products, which are the configurations?

H Malik,
You are correct! Latest version is Cisco prime LMS 4.2. There is no direct upgrade from LMS 3.x to LMS 4.x.
The procedure is simple:
Take backup orf old LMS --> Un-install (if same machine)--> Install new LMS --> Restore backup to get old data.
You would need to purchase new license for it.Cisco Prime LMS is now part of the Cisco Prime Infrastructure bundle and is not orderable separately. Cisco Prime Infrastructure bundle follows a size-based incremental licensing model. Device licenses can be combined and added when applied to a single server installation instance. Customers have the option of adding incremental licenses for additional devices as their network grows.Refer to the Cisco Prime Infrastructure Ordering Guide located at http://www.cisco.com/go/primeinfrastructure for the exact part number that matches your requirement and placing the order.
Currently even SmartNet or SAS contracts does not cover major upgrades from LMS 2.x and 3.x; an upgrade part number will need to be purchased to move to Cisco Prime LMS 4.2. These upgrade part numbers reflect a significant discount to protect customers' investment in the Cisco Prime product line.
The data migration process will vary depending on the LMS version from which the data need to be migrated. Migrating data to LMS 4.2:
• LMS 4.2 supports local upgrade or direct inline upgrade only from LMS 4.0.1 and LMS 4.1.
• LMS 4.0 customers are encouraged to install LMS 4.0.1 before doing inline upgrade to LMS 4.2.
• LMS 3.2 and LMS 3.2 Service Pack 1 customers can do a remote upgrade through the LMS backup and restore mechanism.
• LMS 3.1, LMS 3.0, LMS 3.0 December 2007 Update, LMS 2.6, and LMS 2.6 Service Pack 1 customers need to do a remote upgrade to LMS 4.0.1 and then upgrade to LMS 4.2.

Anyone upgrade ISE to 1.1 yet?

Has anyone upgraded to 1.1 on ISE?
How did the upgrade go? Any issues? How long did it take?
TIA
Scott

We took the plunge last week because we needed the FIPS mode. Let's just say this... it didn't go well. It took a 5 days to get it back into functional shape, and I still have one major outstanding issue.
We have 4 nodes in a distributed deployment, 2 admin/monitor, and 2 policy nodes. You cannot upgrade a node if it is distributed.
Here's what we finally figured out (we have no posture nodes at the moment):
1) BACKUP - This saved our butt, so make sure you do this.
2) Gather all certificates and private keys (assuming you aren't using self-signed certificates). You will need these if you have to re-image a box.
3) De-register secondary admin node.
4) Upgrade (application upgrade )
5) Convert to primary node (from standalone)
6) De-register a policy node.
7) Upgrade.
8) Register with v1.1 admin node.
9) Repeat steps 5-7 for other policy nodes
10) Convert remaining 1.0 admin box to standalone.
11) Upgrade
12) Register as secondary node in 1.1 distributed deployment.
13) Make primary if required.
NOTE - We ran into several 1.1 issues. After upgrading, we had one policy node which lost it's paid-for certificate (we exported them prior to upgrade). However, it could not be loaded while registered to the cluster. If standalone, the cert was fine. Also ran into an issue where FIPS mode could not be enabled due to a certificate with <= 1024 bit security. However, none of those certs were actually installed. We ended up re-imaging the admin node to 1.04, restoring the backup, re-upgrading to 1.1, and this time all of those issues are gone (5 days after starting the upgrade).
NOTE 2 - The docs show using an SFTP repository to perform the upgrade. Using SFTP, the upgrade took 2.5 hours (2 hours to transfer the file over). We could backup over the SFTP repository in 10 minutes, for the same size file. Changing the repository to HTTP caused the transfer to complete in 2 minutes (vs 2 hours). I tested this on 3 systems.
We are still experiencing an issue where guest users get authenticated, but the user isn't actually allowed to go anywhere. It looks like the controller isn't receiving an update from ISE saying the user authenticated properly. The ISE logs show successful logins.
Bottom line, be ready for issues. I'm sure the upgrade has been great for some people, but it's one of the most frustrating upgrades I have ever performed. On the plus side, I have learned a lot about ISE.

Anyone upgrade to Snow Leopard and runs CS3 or CS4?

Hi all. I'm looking to upgrade my Mac from tiger to snow leopard, but I wanted to make sure there weren't any problems beforehand. Has anyone upgraded to Snow Leopard? Have you had any problems running CS3 or CS4 since?
Thanks.

Works fine for me on a 2008 unibody MBP. Only a couple bugs that I can live -- neither affect workflow or CS4 functionality.
A) As with Leopard, some programs have an issue with closing. About half the time when you close Ai or Dw the program closes fine -- then it tells you it crashed. A bit annoying, but I just go ahead and send the error report, dosent affect much, although if you've changed any preferences they might get lost. Adobe's prob gotten several hundred crash reports from me on that one :∫
B) Occasionally when you switch from one app to another and you try to go back it only will switch only when you click the icon on the bottom -- otherwise the app you want will just switch back to the other app -- I think it's a snow leopard bug, but seems to affect Flash and AE. Very rarely however.
I've been using Snow Leopard w/ CS4 since release day for prob 14 hours a day 6 days a week and these are my observations.
Go for it dude, you'll love 10.6 -- Use CCC before that way if it's not functioning properly you can aways go back.
It should be noted, I have not tested any third party plug-ins yet. After Effects by itself 9.0.2 has no issues that I can tell.

How do you prepare still images before importing into FCP?

I'm working on a WWI documentary, so there are a lot of photos that need to be imported. Also each image needs to have movement set to them. The images are in a few different formats: JPEG, GIF, TIFF and PDF's. Their file sizes range from 28 KB - 102 MB. I thought of importing them into Photoshop, where I can resize and save as a PNG file. Then I thought I could open the images in Motion, put movement on the images and export each image as a quicktime file using compressor. My settings in FCP are as follows: AJA Kona LH: 525 29.97 Apple ProRes 422 (HQ). Frame size is 720x486. Does anyone know which is the best way to prepare images before importing them into FCP? Does anyone have a different workflow that works better?

Just make sure that they are bigger than 720x486 if you intend to be doing moves on them. an 28KB? As MASTER pics? Way too small...those will look like crud. But if you can make the images larger, about twice as large as your canvas, then you are fine.

Anyone upgraded their gx60 hitman edition?

Well I have had my gx60 hitman edition for a couple of months now and I love it MSI has a customer for life here. I also had a MSI gx630 before this which i hold a over clock world record with I got it to 2.65 GHz on air. but this brings me to my point has anyone upgraded their gx60. the single channel ram is killing me I think the system would be much more responsive in dual channel mode. also I plan on putting a ssd in for a boot drive and to put my more demanding games on. but I was just wondering before I void the warranty if any one has already upgraded and what kind of performance gains did you get? Also is there anyway to over clock the 5750m I can't find a way? P.S. did everyone get a free mouse because I didn't :(

Quote from: farzulnizam;49140
So u're suggesting that gx60 user should upgrade their DDIM for a better gaming performance? Is is true gx60 is weak in cpu? Rts and mmos are not compatible with gx60
Dual-channel will squeeze some more juice from the CPU...Low latency RAM would also squeeze a little bit more...but the improvements will not be so much until you suddenly get 40-50 fps from 20fps...
To put things to perspective, a10-5750m is weaker than ivy bridge i5, and about 3x slower than haswell i7...It is the compromise that one has to make when picking GX60...i7+mid range GPU or AMD + high end GPU...
it is not that GX60 is not compatible with RTS and MMO..it is just so happen that RTS and MMO demand much more CPU power than say first person shooter...a lot of cpu power is needed to render the units and environment

Anyone upgraded to 3.1 without issues?

Has anyone upgraded to iTunes 9.0 and upgraded their phone to 3.1 without any issues? I've downloaded and installed iTunes 9.0 and I've downloaded but NOT installed 3.1 for my phone.

I just got done updating both itunes 9 and iphone 3.1. After reading many of the problems on this board I had to build up enough courage to attempt an upgrade, as I didn’t want to become another member of the bricked phone club. I decided to document the process just it case I needed to call Apple support later.
Computer:
Imac 20” late 2007
1GB memory upgraded to 4GB (myself)
Time Machine 1TB MY BOOK hard drive (left connected with all software updates)
Linksys WRT160N wireless router
NO 3rd party Apps installed
MS OFFICE 2004
ALL updates have been through “Software Update” OS 10.? through 10.5.8
itunes 8.2.1
iphone 16GB 3G 3.0.1
So here is my upgrade history timeline.
I logged on to my computer and clicked on to Software Updates and got:
itunes 9 > 85.5mg
Quicktime 7 > 59.34mg
Security update 2009-005….. > 93mb
11:39 Hawaii Time 9/10/09 I clicked on update.
11:39 – 11:42 itunes 9 downloaded
11:42 – 11:44 Quicktime 7 downloaded
11:44 – 11:46 Security update downloaded
Instructed to restart, then the computer restarted and installed updates.
11:52 – 12:15 I repaired permissions then opened itunes 9 watched a few of the videos of the new features, then backed up my iphone before upgrading to 3.1.
Leaving the iphone connected I clicked on update in itunes.
12:16 – 12:22 downloaded 3.1.1
12:23 Preparing software update.
12:23 the Apple logo appeared on the iphone.
12:24 the update bar on the iphone came up and started updating.
12:27 Verifying updated iphone software.
12:28 – 12:32 updating iphone firmware.
12:32 the itunes screen appeared.
12:33 itunes synced and backed up iphone
12:35 after clicking info in itunes 3.1 displayed for my iphone.
The whole process took about an hour and I have no problems to report.

Hello, can someone tell me where i can find a document how to upgrade a cisco 6880 running vss

I copied the ios to bootdisk, but when I change the boot system and reload my standby peer de standby peer starts up in rommon mode. I need the correct parameters for the boot command for a 6880. On the cisco site I can only find how to upgrade a 6500 with vss,but I need the documentation how to upgrade a cisco 6880. Can someone please help me to find this . Thank you.

There are several methods. Both methods has downtime. One method is FSU/eFSU, which I will NOT go into, is an "automated" method of upgrade. The automation, if it works, include booting each chassis one at a time.
The second method works well for me. Before I begin, it is very, very important that you check the MD5 hash value of the IOS file you've downloaded against the MD5 hash value found in the Cisco website.
1. Copy the IOS to the sup-bootdisk:.
2. Copy the IOS to the slavesup-bootdisk:
3. Change the boot variable string to point to the IOS of your choice. Additionally, you can specify a second boot variable string to point to your OLD IOS. This is very handy/important if your chassis attempts to boot the new IOS you've copied and failed. It is important to remove the old boot variable string before changing.
4. Ensure your config-registry is 0x2102.
5. Save the config first and copy the startup-config to an external media: CF or TFTP
6. Reboot the chassis.
Hope this helps.

I have an iphone 5, and the battery is so bad! I was just wonder if anyone had used an external battery before? are they good? can they do damage to your phone? what's the best one to get? any help would be great thanks!

I have an iphone 5, and the battery is so bad! I was just wonder if anyone had used an external battery before? are they good? can they do damage to your phone? what's the best one to get? any help would be great thanks!

I'd just like to say that ahs70's post on Dec 1, 2013 at 1:17am on Pg. 9 worked for me as well: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5338609?start=120&tstart=0
If your iPhone's battery is acting up you need to determine if it's a software issue or a hardware/battery issue. To do that, after syncing your iPhone, erase/hard reset all data and settings from your iPhone to what it was from the factory as new. This can be found in Settings/General/Reset/Erase All Content and Settings. Then test it out for a day or two. If it's still acting up then it's likely a hardware issue and you will need to get your battery replaced. If your warranty is done than check out this link to get a battery kit to replace your iPhone battery yourself: http://www.ifixit.com/Store/iPhone/iPhone-5-Replacement-Battery/IF118-001#produc tDescription
If your iPhone is now working properly after hard resetting it than it's most likely a software issue. This battery issue only started after upgrading to the new iOs7, so it is obviously related to the update not properly installing itself. What has worked for me and many others is to manually update to iOS 7.0.4 using the full downloaded version of the update which is about 1.32 Gigs.
But first you need to find out what model of iPhone you have, click here to determine if it's GSM or CDMA: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3939?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
Then go here and scroll down to download the iOS 7.0.4 complete update for your device: http://www.downloadios7.org/download-ios-7-0-4-ipsw-file.html
Then scroll up on the download page and follow the instructions of updating your iPhone manually following the instructions below: "IPSW with iTunes"
And your done.
Problem solved.
I only posted this because it was a very frustrating problem that no one really seemed to figure out a solution for.
I hope this helps.

Please add "resize image before uploading" and "do...

SOME of us do NOT want to send bothersome, huge images over mobile devices just to share a pointless moment with a friend - or an enemy.
Wechat already has this AWESOME feature, so maybe Skype should have one too - as it is so cumbersome to go into another program to resize and save an image before sending it.
Please add a button to have a possibility of sending a low resoluton version of all images and also before downloading an image to check out if it is worth the money and bandwidth.
Sincerely, The Wrath of Diego

You can resize some bitmap, or movieClip, etc. to a new size by making a new bitmapData at the desired size and drawing the source into the new bitmapData. When doing the draw use a Matrix to accomplish the scaling. Something like so:
var newBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(320, 240);
var m:Matrix = new Matrix();
m.scale(newBitmapData.width / originalBitmapData.width, newBitmapData.height / originalBitmapData.height);
newBitmapData.draw(originalBitmapData, m);

Anyone upgraded a Cisco Concentrators image before?
