Cisco Prime 2.0 to conduct a Predictive Survey

I´m looking for where are made the "Planning Mode" to conduct a predictive site survey in Cisco Prime 2.0 but I can´t find. I´ve already read a lot of documents but I was just more confuse.
I knew that in previous versions you could enter in "Planning Mode".
Someone know where is this inside the Prime 2.0 ?

If your familiar with WCS or NCS, then change the theme from lifecycle to classic mode. You can change this by clicking on the top right in the GUI by the login name:
Prime Infrastructure provides two different graphical user interfaces (from which you can switch back and forth by clicking the downward arrow next to your login name):
Then you can follow this guide.

1600 and 2600 series aps no heatmap on cisco prime 1.4.0.45

after plotting 1600 series and 2600 series aps on the respective uploaded maps, there's NO heatmap coming out.
setup composed of:
1600 series aps
2600 series aps
wlc running HA (7.4.121.0)
cisco prime 1.4.0.45
i noticed some errors from prime:
error 1: Exception while computing Coverage Heatmap. Message: COMMON-1 Try Recompute RF Prediction - this error message shows after positioning the aps on the map and clicking save button. it took sometime to display then this error message shows.
error 2: Error in Recompute RF Prediction: SyntaxError:syntax error - this error shows after running recompute rf prediction option
i tried 802.11a/n and 802.11b/g/n protocols but still no heatmap. i tried unselecting ap heatmaps option and select it again but still no heatmap.
anybody have an idea what is going on? tia

Hi,
Try removing both APs from the map and saving. Next, go back into the map an assign the APs. If they still do not map then I would look at the traps on the controller and make sure that the AP is fine. I would also look at performing an on demand refresh from the controller to the WCS. You can do this from the management page in WCS.

Creatng New Objects in Cisco Prime Wireless Planning

Does any one know if it is possible to create new types of Obsticals in CISCO Prime?
My new buildings are laboratories that have various thicknesses of concrete walls boht internal and external that I can get Db loss figures for. I would really like to be able to add these in to Prime so I can more accuratly predict covereage early on in the design.
Cheers

Hi Deb,
I would do a fresh install of PI 2.0 & go from step 5 onwards. Even though customer purchased PI 1.2 he is entitle to go to PI 2.0 or any other upgrade. You can talk to TAC & get any licensing if any differences what was purchased & what is required in PI 2.0.
These migration will be not smooth as far as I know. Also you are not gaining any thing (since you are adding maps fresh & no data migration)

Trouble With Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3

Hi,
I have installed the Evaluation Version Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3.
There are a few problems that i am facing;
I am trying to push a simple configuration to WLC using Prime Infrastructure. But it is failing as PI doesnot have RW SNMP access.
My question is that can I use PI to push configs without using SNMP. Like do it using ftp or something.
Also do the Wired Devices also need SNMP RW access on PI's part.
2. I tried running discovery for WLC and it worked fine where all the controllers were discovered. But when I try to discover a Switch, the reachability tab says Reachable but in Collection Status tab it shows Unmanaged. When I click on the Unmanaged tab it says " Pre-collection check failed because: ". I have configured the SNMP correctly.
3. I have the CAD files for all the maps in our environment but when I try to upload it to Prime it converts it into GIF, so the maps are uploaded as plain image with no knowledge of walls and obstacles.
So we would have to add the walls and obstacles by ourselves. Is there any way it can automatically pick up on the walls and obstacles and thus provide a better way for predicting RF profiles.
All your help is greatly appreciated.

TAC Case! Sounds like a bug to me...

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

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.
regards
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.

Hello Jason,
Thank you very much for welcoming me to your expert discussion :) I feel to be in the right place, at the right time. Thank you also for answering question beyond your scope here, much appreciated. The information received will help me to go further as such I have submitted a 5 start rating for your first reply.
That sounds promising about the LMS part so yes, I stay tuned and wait patiently.
Ok, now let’s revert to the actual topic discussed here. Cisco Prime Service Catalog and Process Orchestrator solutions I have briefly read up on this on CCO (where elseJ) and picked out the following quote
---- Quote from the Cisco Prime Service Catalog Data Sheet
Today’s end users want self-service and easy access to IT tools and services.
Simultaneously, organizations are seeking ways to extend their cloud management
platforms beyond self-service delivery of virtual machines and infrastructure resources
while increasing their use of cloud-based solutions to enhance business agility and effectiveness.
Cisco Prime™ Service Catalog offers tremendous benefits to organizations that want to unify the ways in
which all types of IT services are ordered and fulfilled, not just infrastructure requests
---- un quote ---
I try to understand what (at high level of course) happens in the back ground when an order is raised and which vendor solution your product can interact with.
As mentioned in the quoted text, this service catalogue goes beyond the standard infrastructure.
Let’s say, a user wants to deploy a new email services, or in your example, extends or create a new web-portal (i.e. for HR to view and manage holiday, staff absence and benefits).
Your solution will need to interact somehow with the 3rd party vendor application that is capable building such portal I believe.
Without disclosing to many information, I assume the portal is linked to backend VM,s that spin up requested resources (and more magic of course). Perhaps I am mixing this up with another cisco product where a user can go on the portal and spin up virtual Firewalls, virtual Routers can be provisioned in now time.
Out if interest; Is this product also known as Mozart? (project code within Cisco?)
I hope query is ok.
Best wishes
Markus

What are the features supported in Cisco Prime Infrastructure for WLAN for autonomous AP's?

What are the features supported in Cisco Prime Infrastructure for WLAN for autonomous AP’s?

• PI provides visibility for autonomous clients within the same list view as lightweight and wired clients (client list page).
• Rogue AP detection for autonomous AP's is not supported (it's supported in CUWN).
• Alarms/events for client authentication issues (e.g. authentication failure) are displayed in PI.
• Config management for autonomous AP's is via CLI template. Config comparison and archiving functionality in PI leverages these same features that were brought in from LMS, so need to defer to others in terms of whether this is a cross-platform feature in PI or is only supported on a subset of platforms. Config comparison/archive is supported in CUWN.PI supports both infrastructure (e.g. AP Tx Power and Channel, busiest AP, AP utilization, etc.) and client (e.g. client count, client sessions, etc.) reports, and there are extensive reports for CUWN

Replicate in the Master controller and creation of new user with cisco prime infrastructure 2.1.

Hello!!
We have multiple controllers Cisco WLC 5508 (all running software version 7.6.120.0) distributed in various buildings and a controller in other control building (also Cisco WLC 7.6.120.0 5508) operating as Master and backup of the buildings's controllers .
Each building is radiated such an SSID that is used as a validation of the user connected to that SSID web portal each controller (in the WLAN, Security -> Layer 3 -> Web Policy), using the local database to validate the user.
The problem is that the local database of users is not being replicated between controllers buildings and the Master controller, so if you drop the controller of a building, the Master controller begins to provide service to the buildings access points, but the equivalent radiated SSID cannot able to validate users.
I need know if it's possible through Cisco Prime Infrastruture 2.1, first replicate in the Master controller on the basis of existing controllers buildings each local data and, second, that the creation of new users are automatically perform both the controllers like to the Master .
Thanks.

As noted earlier, it is not advisable to use the root user to log in for normal use. New users and groups can be created by navigating to Administration > Users, Roles & AAA as shown in the preceding figures. It would help to chalk out what are the various levels at which you want to distribute the users, and to create those roles first. It doesn’t really matter whether you create users or groups first. New users can be easily added by going to Administration > Users, Roles & AAA > Users > Add Users > Select “Add Users” from the drop-down on the right side. Once you get into the add user workflow, fill in the username, password, and local authorization for this user as shown in the figure below.
A virtual domain can also be assigned to the users when you define their roles by selecting the virtual domain on the left side and moving it to the right side as shown in the image below (left).

Cisco Prime 1.2 - cannot delete "Unassigned" Campus

Hi,
has anybody an idea how to delete Unassigned Campus?
I went through I think all documentation and they are speaking that only "System Campus" cannot be deleted, but not a single word about "Unassigned" campus.
All the campuses below behaves like a child of Unassigned campus. I know it's just cosmetic issue, but still I would like to get rid of it.
I attached a screenshot.
Thanks!
K.

Yes you can add building and floor diagrams in Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2. For the same you can see the below link

Issue with backup NCS via NFS (Cisco Prime NCS 1.2.0)

Hello,
Does someone have issue with backup NCS via externally mounted location (NFS)?
I have Cisco Prime NCS 1.2.0 and tried backup it to external resources, but I have issue with my free space:
NCS/admin# backup ncs repository backup_nfs
% Creating backup with timestamped filename: ncs-130131-0534.tar.gpg
INFO : Cannot configure the backup directory size settings as the free space available is less than the current database size.
You do not have enough disk space available in your repository to complete this backup.
DB size is 25 GB
Available size is 12 GB
Please refer to the command reference guide for NCS and look at the /backup-staging-url/ command reference to setup the backup repository on an externally mounted location
Stage 5 of 7: Building backup file ...
-- complete.
Stage 6 of 7: Encrypting backup file ...
-- complete.
Stage 7 of 7: Transferring backup file ...
-- complete.
I have tried to add additional space and use command backup-staging-url (my configuration: backup-staging-url nfs://server2008:/nfs), but it didn't help me.
NFS share works perfect. I have checked it via NFS repository:
repository backup_nfs

test-130130-1210.tar.gz
Everytime when I try create backup I receive error message "You do not have enough disk space available in your repository to complete this backup".
Does someone know how can I backup NCS system?
Thank you

How much space is availabe on that NFS mount point? It looks like to me from the error message that there is only 12 GB....
The backup-staging-url is just for a space used to stage the backup before it is written-----
