Cisco Prime: Event Larm Port 'x' is down on device.

Hi,
I'm writing regarding; event-larms; that is reporting from Cisco Prime; connected to controller. Interfaces is reporting via event-larm; that they are down.
"Virtual Domain: ROOT-DOMAIN
PI has detected a change in one or more alarms of category Controller and severity Critical in Virtual Domain ROOT-DOMAIN.
The new severity of the following items is Clear:
1. Message: Port '3' is down on device '10.1.1.2'.
(6 times)
2. Message: Port '4' is down on device '10.1.1.2'.
(6 times)
3. Message: Port '5' is down on device '10.1.1.2'.
(6 times)
4. Message: Port '6' is down on device '10.1.1.2'.
(6 times)
5. Message: Port '7' is down on device '10.1.1.2'.
(6 times)
6. Message: Port '8' is down on device '10.1.1.2'.
(6 times)
E-mail will be suppressed up to 30 minutes for these changes."
Is there a solution how to not recieve those event-larms? The only LACP interfaces that is configured is 1 & 2, in a group.
See attached screenshot, when trying to disable the other interfaces.
The LACP is enabled and configured on "management" interface.
Best Regards,
David

CISCO Prime Infrastructure 2.0 Link UP DOWN ALERT

Hi,
I want to monitor core switch link up down status and ignore all the access switch link up down. How do I do that? My core switch is nexus 7009 and my access switch is 2960s.
I have tried configuring port group for core switch and access switch and only deploy interface health template to my core switch port group but I still receiving link down alert from my access switchport even without deploying the template to my access switch.
Am I doing it the right way? Help please. Thank you.

Including Interface Description in Cisco PRime Infrastructure Alarm Message

Hi all,
i succesfully configured a Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1 applliance to display an alarm and to send me an e-mail when switch uplink ports goes down.
The text displayed in alarm message is :
port 'interface_id' is down on device 'device_ip_address'
I'd like to include in this text also the interface description so the text will display :
port 'interface_id' 'interface_descriprion' is down on device 'device_ip_address'
Is this possible?
Thankyou in advance

Hi,
i followed these steps :
SWITCH SIDE
- configured Prime Infrastructure as snmp-server host;
- enabled snmp-traps for linkup and linkdown events globally;
- disabled snmp-traps for linkup and linkdown on non relevant interfaces using the no snmp trap link-status command
PRIME INFRASTRUCTURE SIDE
- under "Deploy/Monitor Deployment" i deployed template "Interface Health" for all the interested switches
- under "Administration/System Settings/Mail Server Configuration" configured my internal SMTP server to make Prime Infrastructure able to send e-mails
- under "Operate/Alarms & Events" click on "Email Notifications" , then on "Switches and Hubs"
- check the "critical" box , insert the destination e-mail address into the "To" field then click "Save"
- check the "switches and Hubs" box and then click Save
As i know is possible to avoid to configure every single not-interesting port on the switches with "no snmp trap link-status" command (it's a bit annoying when you have tens of switches), using Port Grouping configuration on PI but i tried it without success.
Hope this helps.
Best Regards,

Cisco Prime 1.2 device interface alarms

Hello All,
I am working on Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2.1.012. I have enabled prime to report interface up and down messages.
But I am seeing some strange messages such as below,
Alarm Condition:Link down
Message: Port '{0}' is up on device '{1}'.
This is happening for some of the interfaces of the switch. For the same switch if there is any interface activity I can see alram message as,
Message: Port 'GigabitEthernet0/43' is up on device '10.104.xx.xx'
which is good and undestandable. Why the interface name is shown as {0}?
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Girish

Just found the solution to the problem!
Bug ID: CSCuf55719, Incomplete link down detection: Port '{0}' is down on device '{1}'.
It seems this issue will be fixed in PI 2.0.

WCS and LMS to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3 Upgrade

Hello,
Our customer is currently having WCS for 500 devices and LMS 3.2 for 1500 devices. We are planning to upgrade to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3.
I want to check is the upgrade procedure that we have planned is ok or we have missed something.
Phase 1: WCS to CPI 1.3 upgrade
1. Check that WCS is at 7.0.230.0 version
2. Export WCS database
3. Install NCS 1.1.1.24 software
4. Contact cisco to obtain trial license for NCS software (L-WCS-NCS1-M-K9 license).
5. Migrate WCS license and import it in NCS software
6. Migrate WCS data to NCS software using ncs migrate command
7. Patch NCS software
8. Inline upgrade to CPI 1.3 software
9. Install proper licenses on CPI 1.3 (WCS and LMS device count)
My concern in this first phase is should I use NCS large image since our Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3 software should manage 2000 devices at the end.
Or is it better not to perform inline upgrade and insted go with exporting data from NCS and then importing them to CPI 1.3 that is going to be installed separately?
Phase 2: LMS 3.2 to CPI upgrade
1. Export LMS 3.2 database
2. Install LMS 4.2 software
3. Install license to LMS 4.2
4. Restore data from LMS 3.2 to LMS 4.2
5. Direct upgrade from LMS 4.2 to 4.2.2
6. Export the device list with credentials from LMS 4.2.2 and import it as a Bulk Import in CPI 1.3
At the end we will have CPI 1.3 and LMS 4.2.2 software running.
Is it possible to directly upgrade from LMS 4.2 to LMS 4.2.4 and then import data to CPI 1.3 or we need to go with 4.2.2 version?
Regards,
Jelena

Are this errors going to affect our LMS 4.2 operations?
Then we have upgraded to LMS 4.2.2 and exported data and credentiales for PI import.
On PI 1.3 we have installed WCS 500 devices upgrade license and LMS 1500 upgrade license and now we are having 2000 devices lifecycle license. We have successfully restored WCS data in PI and we have imported LMS devices as bulk import. What is strange is that we have this message in prime regarding licensing:
On LMS 3.2 our customer had saved unlimited number of configuration versioning. After upgrading to LMS 4.2 we can only see last 3 configurations regardless of unlimided number of configurations in previous LMS, so my question is where can we find older configurations in LMS 4.2?
We are planning to turn unlimited versioning on CPI 1.3 now, so our customer will again have feature that they need. Do you have some experiance regarding disk space when all device configurations are stored forever?
Thank you for your help.

Cisco Prime Infra 2.2 + Third Party Inventory and configuration backup

Hi All,
I am having a doubt related to Cisco prime solution capability to do a discovery and config backup for non-cisco devices.
Requirement is to use Cisco prime to do a discovery, inventory and take configuration backup for non-cisco devices. Is it something possible out of the box ?
If not possible out of the box, is there any method to do that using any custom API ?
Can we monitor 3rd party( Non-cisco) devices using Cisco Prime 2.2 ?
Skr

Hi,
Below is supported-device list, check if your device is listed there.

Can we Monitor third party Windows servers through Cisco Prime

Hi Team,
We are using Cisco Prime assurance and are currently monitoring Cisco UCCE Components through it.
Meanwhile we have few third party windows servers , which we would like to monitor it through Cisco Prime , just to maintain a single monitoring tool.
If yes, please share the steps or link.Also highlight the limitations in that.
Regards,
krishna

Seems Cisco Prime Assurance Manager is now obsolete and end of life already.
It is replaced by Cisco Prime Infrastructure. CPI supports third party/vendor devices to some minimum extent with limited management details collected via SNMP Templates.
-Thanks

Cisco Prime Infrastructure, Express, licensing

Are there any funcionatility limitation between each edition of the Cisco Prime Infrastructure other than supported number of devices?
Does it support turning APs on and off on a predefined scheduled?
I read in the manual "Cisco Prime Infrastructure Classic View Configuration Guide for Wireless Devices" that it is possible to Managing WLAN Status Schedules. Does it require the assurance license feature set or will lifecycle license will be sufficient?

I believe you could create a scheduled Lightweight AP Configuration Template job and have it simply turn off the radios on the selected APs. Make it recurring (every night at a certain time) and add a complementary recurring job to turn the radios back on at the desired time.
See the following screeenshot from PI 2.0 (click to enlarge):

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 - Third Party NetFlow

Hi,
is it possible to collect on the Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 NetFlows from Third Party Devices, like a SonicWALL Firewall?
I mean it is possible to poll SNMP informations from a third party device, so maybe it is also possible to get the NetFlow from this Device?
Best Regards,
Sven K.
Sent from Cisco Technical Support iPad App

Hi Sven,
As per my understanding for 3rd party Only below thing are supported:
The following support level is available with Prime Infrastructure :
• Auto Discovery of a 3rd party Device
• Basic Inventory collection
• Basic lifecycle management of 3rd party device
• Ability to show traps and syslog for 3rd party devices
• Device reachability status polling
• Ability to load new MIBs & to create new monitoring templates
• For both Cisco and any SNMP device
More info is available in the link given below:

I am only obtaining the packages.conf file (bootvar is configured to boot from that file (boot system flash bootflash:issu/packages.conf)).
Any idea in order to get the correct image?
Thanks a lot and best regards,

Hi Scott,
Thanks for the response but I got to know that LMS and NCS are combined in single ISO image from PI 1.2 and can be installed on the same physical NCS appliance.
Can you pls check this.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 Alarms (switch port down)

We have a cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 managing switches, routers and AP.
By default, when a port of a switch goes down, the cisco Prime Infrastructre generates a Critical Alarm for that. (this is a problem, because every phone of laptop disconnection will generate a critical alarm for me)
I found out that if we go to Administration --> Alarm Severity --> Link down, I can change the Alarm from Critical to another type of alarm.(ex: warning)
The problem is that I want to keep the Critical Alarm for my Uplinks ports and for some important switch ports, and I would like to make the alarm as warning for the normal user ports.
I know that I can create Port Groupping and add ports to each group and apply monitoring templates on those groups. But This couldn't Help me solving my alarm problem.
So I just need to know how to manage the alarms severity for each group of ports.
Thank you

Hi,
Same problem here.
I am using Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 (evaluation version for 60 days). I want to deploy port monitoring for my trunk ports between switches and some other important ports e.g. servers. Basically I want to get alarms when these ports are down, there are errors on ports and etc.
So in Design>Port Grouping I created User Defined group with important ports. In Deploy>Monitoring Deployment I selected Interface Health (default)>Deploy selected Port Groups and when selected port group I created.
Now the rule shows Deployed: Yes and Status: Active. After that I just pulled out one port which was in monitored group, waited 5min as it is set in Interface Health (default) template, and nothing happened, and worse, alarms started to show up of other ports where regular users are connected (computers was turned off), which I do not want to see at all. I tried redeploy template, I even created my own template but still no desired result.
Any suggestions how to make port monitoring work?

Cisco Prime LMS 4.1 - Monitoring events

Dear all
I have a problem to see the events in the Cisco Prime, for example when an event occurs (port-shutdown) in the switch I receive this information:

I don't see the details of the port that was done, or other deatiled that give aditional information abut the event. I have configured the Cisco Prime in this way:

- Admin> Network > Notification and Action Settings>Fault Notification Group : is configured

Cisco Prime Infrastructure - Is there a report of unused switch ports?

Hello,
Is there a report in Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.4 showing the unused switch ports?
There used to be one in Cisco Prime LMS (Reclaim Unused Up/Down Ports Report).
Thank you,
Luke

Hello,
I now have Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 running, and I don't see a report like the "Reclaim Unused Up/Down Ports" report that existed in LMS.
I found one called "Interface Capacity", but it only shows the number of ports that are "connected", "notconnect" or "disabled".
Does anyone know if a report of Unused ports exists in Prime Infrastructure 2.0 or if it will be available later on?
Thank you,
Luke

Cisco Prime Infrastructure and no new events / alarms since update to 2.2.1

Hello,
I have upgraded our Cisco Prime Infrastructure from version 2.1 to 2.2.1 (with a backup and restore). We have round about 700 APs and three 5208 Controller. So far everything seems to work really fine. The only problem is that there are no new alarms/events under "Monitor", "Alarms and Events".
The last entries (events and alarms) are dated before the upgrade. Other informations (like client counts for example) are correct.
Is there a known bug related to my problem? Can anybody help?
Thanks

I have done some research:
I see the following problems in the log-package (downloaded from Prime):

I think that there is a problem with a too small tablespace. But I can´t fix that. Anybody? ;)

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,
Regards,
Milton Tizoc.

Cisco Prime: Event Larm Port 'x' is down on device.
