Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 import image via WAN link failed.
Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 behind NAT that can copy image on device to Cisco Prime infra but can not deploy from Cisco Prime Infra import image from device. How to solve problem,please ?
Have you downloaded and applied the latest Device Pack updates?
PI enhanced ASA support after the initial 2.0 release and the Device Packs incorporate that change.
The README file for Device Packs explains how to install them. (A bug currently does not allow the direct download in PI so you need to follow the method for installation from local storage after you manually download. Here is a link to the download location.

Hi,
I want to access Cisco PI 2.1 GUI using my AD credentials, so on PI I've enabled RADIUS AAA Mode and added RADIUS servers (two ISE nodes in our case). On ISE I added PI as RADIUS client and configured the same keys. Next, on ISE I created authorization profile PRIME_ADMIN_ACCESS with only attribute settings defined:
My authentication and authorization rules relating that case are as on following screenshots:
So when I open GUI of PI and enter my AD credentials to log in I have no success and I receive following message:
Looking in ISE's Authentication section I can see following:
Time difference between these two authentication/authorizations is just 25 msecs and clicking on each of them reveals following:
So at first I can authenticate and authorize (authorization profile has necessary attributes defined for PI management access (NCS:role0=Root, NCS:virtual-domain0=ROOT-DOMAIN)) and after 25 msecs I am getting failure. So what could be cause of such things and how I can successfully log in to PI GUI authenticating via ISE using AD credentials?Hi,
-- Please Go to Administration > Logging > set the Message level to TRACE > Click save
-- Then try to add the ISE.
-- Once it fails, collect the logs from Administration > Logging >
check the "ncs-0-0.log" & search the file for "ERROR" & paste the results here. This will give us exact reason.

Can i install Cisco prime infrastructure 1.3 with 1.1 license.
Can i install Cisco prime infrastructure 1.3 with 1.1 license.To be more precise it will be fresh installation
but the licenses I have is of 1.1.As per my overview from Cisco prime Infrastructure 1.2 NCS and NCS(WAN)
has been bundled into one service.But both were seperate entities in Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.1.It doesn't matter if you want to make a new installation or an upgrade. The questions is the license.
The base license is necessary for network management nodes (devices). But to get updates for your system you need the additional to your Base License the Lifecycle License (which can be ordered for 12, 24 or 36 months).
The Lifycycle License is also based on the number of managed devices. In your case 50 devices. So you have that License - congratulations!
Otherwise order the Lifecycle License for 50 devices (L-N-PI12-50-M). This generates CON-PSUU-PI12LF50 for 12 months, list price 414,81$. Then Upgrade from 1.1 to 1.2, patch the system and upgrade to 1.3.
Have fun,

Can't import images in cisco prime infrastructure 1.2
- Any job , trying to import images, in my cisco prime infrastructure fails with :

My Cisco Prime Infrastructure ver. 1.2.1.12
Cisco Prime Infrastructure - I can't see the hardware virtual image when I selected a device managed by Prime Infrastructure. See attached picture.
Please let me know how to access or enable the feature.
Thanks,
TekThis is by no means a full solution, but deleting and re-adding only takes a few minutes if you use the "Export Device" and "Bulk Import" features from the Device Work Center. You can export the desired devices to a CSV file, delete them, then import from the CSV.
Of course, you might lose historical data when deleting the devices, but I'm guessing that's not as relevant since the devices themselves have been replaced by different hardware. -
Hello everybody,
we have updated cisco prime infrastructure from 1.3 to 2.0. When we now import a floor plan (autocad-file, dwg-format), the background from finally image, that is show in prime, is black. Previous imported floor planes has a white background. We also tried to import a previous imported floor plan again, the background is now black. Is there a possibilty to change the background to white? ThanksHi,
Look no further, these issues are related to know bugs. It seems that autocad files have multiple issues with PI 2.0, Only feasible way is to convert them to JPGs and import them. Lets hope these will get fixed to the level they where at PI 1.3.
CSCuj63017, PI 2.0 dwg(AutoCAD file) import reports Tailormade is for Demo use only
Symptom:
When dwg files are imported to Prime Infrastructure, they report
"For Demonstration Purposes only
Tailor made software"
Conditions:
Prime Infrastructure - 2.0.0.0.294
Use of dwg (Auto cad) files
Workaround:
None at this time
Further Problem Description:

Symptom:
On PI 2.0 when we try to import autoCAD .dwg file to map, the map appears in black background.
Conditions:
On PI 2.0 when we try to import autoCAD .dwg file to map
Workaround:
use 3rd party tool like Draftsight or AutoCAD Trueview to change the file to .jpg and import again to PI, after that the map appear in white background in PI 2.0.
Further Problem Description:
However, the same .dwg file when we imported it to PI 1.3 appear in map with white background. -
Software images Cisco Prime Infrastructure
Hi,
I have Cisco Prime infrastructure 2.0 and all it works ok except when i try to get software image from device. I don´t see any device, so i can´t select any device and I get "RSL error".
When i try to access "Operate" > "Configuration Archives", i get the same error.
The machine from where I navigate has last "flash player" version and it has all requeriments.
Which can be the problem?
Thanks.Hi!
I have experience the same problem under different tools in PI. I did notice it first under “Deploy>Monitoring deployment>Interface Health template>deploy and I get the 2032 error.
I have learn that this occurs when you use a client with no internet connection and you try to start above deployment tools.
What happens is that when you try to open such page in PI web interface, the flash player starts and try to get some files on the PI but the URL it get from the PI application points to a library that do not contains the file (Bug in PI?). The files the flash player looks for is called something like framework_4.5.1.21328.swz and spark_4.5.1.21328.swz and so on. The url from PI looks like https://PI_Server/webacs/applications/SAMDeployTemplate/js/framework_4.5.1.21328.swz but the file is missing.
The flash player have a backup way to get the xxxxxx.swz files it needs. If it can’t find the files in the application, it try to get it from Adobe http://fpdownload.adobe.com . But in my case my client can’t access internet so I get the error 2032.
I have another installation at another site that allows internet access everything works fine. The flash player can load the files it needs and store them locally on the client PC. Then I can take that PC back to the another site with no internet access where I did get the 2032 error and now It works fine because the flash player have the files it needs to handle the PI application.
I have a case open and it has not been solved yet.

UPS monitoring support with Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2
Dear Members,
Good day,
I am having a project implemented wherein i have the UPS power redudancy solution for our network devices.
Now can anyone gide that is it possible for below :-
UPS units installed with SNMP cards be monitored via Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 as our monitoring & management solution is Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 ?
if yes
Can you guide if following action would be possible to export the below logs from UPS unit to our Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2
a) UPS fault status information
b) UPS operational status(input power available Y/N)
c) Battery fault status
d) Battery charging current
e) Battery charge level
f) Output current
Conclusion is we need to confirm that would it be posible to achieve remote monitoring of these UPS units via our CPI 1.2
Thanks in Advance for your support & replies to this query.
Regards,
Muzammil N.Prime Infrastructure 1.2 can manage non-Cisco devices in a limited fashion via SNMP query and trap processing. It cannot import logs and does not have a generic syslog server,
So if your devices have snmp read only support and can generate SNMP traps for the above you can add them to PI. Follow the manual add device procedure here. -
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,

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.

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. -
Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 is not working https & ncs
Hi, I have just deploy Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 in a virtual appliance (Vmware Esxi 5.1). Console is ok & setup is also completed. but there is no NCS application. only app is shwoing: NCSPNP
Cannot access from https also.
Please suggest how to Starting Prime Infrastructure ServeFrom what you describe, it sounds like you have installed the Plug and Play (PNP) ova image. You need to install the Prime Infrastructure image.

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 -
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,
ChristianPI 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 -

We've recently installed trial version of Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 Express. We hoped that it already supports Cisco ASA 55xx series (especially 5505, we have pretty amount of them). But we had some problems with PI and asa durind the exploitation process.
First, I've added ASA to PI, and Inventory Collection Status is Completed, but I can't see CPU and RAM utilization graphs. Inventory.logs are non-informative.
Also, config backup is success, but when I try to watch the backuped configuration at Configuration Archive PI says "Failed to fetch raw configuration". And so on.
ASA version is 5505, image is 9.1(2).
So, I have a question: is it possible to manage ASAs with PI 2.0?
UPD: I've just tried to upgrade asa to 9.1(4), and behavior of the equipment is quite the same. Seems we shall wait for 9.2 to be released.Have you downloaded and applied the latest Device Pack updates?
PI enhanced ASA support after the initial 2.0 release and the Device Packs incorporate that change.
The README file for Device Packs explains how to install them. (A bug currently does not allow the direct download in PI so you need to follow the method for installation from local storage after you manually download. Here is a link to the download location. -
Ciscoworks LMS 3.0 to Cisco Prime Infrastructure LMS 4.2
In order to complete the upgrade the LMS 3.x runs over a physical server that ends with the upgrade(server its gona be retired), the think is that the Cisco Prime comes with an UCS and its gona run over a VM. The question here is the "Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.1 - Maj Upg from LMS 2.x/3.x" media could be runs as clean install, I mean with no LMS 3.x intalled before? an the "Prime Infrastructure LMS 4.2 - 1.5K Device Maj Upg Lic" could be registered with no license installed of LMS 3.x?
There are a couple of things to distinguish:
1. The product SKU you need to order to migrate from LMS 3 to LMS 4.2.
2. The license file that is installed on that new LMS server.
#1 is based on Cisco agreeing, usually through the partner or reseller you are working with, that you are entitled to order the upgrade SKU (vs. buy a complete new product). The upgrade SKUs are all listed in the ordering guide here.
L-PI12-1.5K-UP (note - NOT the 1.1 product description you noted in the original post) would be the SKU for a major upgrade from LMS 2.x/3.x to the current Prime Infrastructure 1.2 release at the 1500 device license level. That upgrade includes licenses for both PI 1.2 and Prime LMS 4.2. You may choose which to install - most LMS customers stick with LMS for now as PI 1.2 does not yet have full feature parity. Your managed devices should not exceed 1500 combined (in this case) but that combined number is not enforced technically by the product's license daemon.
Once you have purchased the product and have the media you can install it on any host that meets the installation prerequisites as far as OS, memory, disk etc. A clean installation of LMS does not check for or require a previous installation as far as technical checks.
#2 - Once you have installed the new LMS server (and optionally a step near the end of installation, you need to add in the license file (*.lic file). That is obtained through the Cisco licensing portal (or via the TAC if you prefer) using the Product Activation Key (PAK) received with your product.
