Cisco Prime Provisioning 10

hi,
we are facing a problem with cisco prime provisioning 10, which is to add or update an endpoint without username. As we are working in a company with many users using one endpoint ( end point which is not associated to any user like help desk).

Thanks Jamie
Wishful thinking I guess. It would have been seamless if they added that form of email notification to end users when auto provisioning. Anyways to get around that I used MS word mail merge and used the same spread sheet I used to batch provision the users to send the Self-service ID to the email contacts.

    Finally, the solution of the problem was:
    1-stop the daemon manager “net stop crmdmgtd” 
    2- Delete the xml files available under(please take backup from them) :
    CSCOpx\objects\sir\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

  • Cisco Prime Collaboration Usage

    Hi,
    Many Asia costumers complain it is very difficult to maintain the Cisco Collaboration system.
    So we are considering the Cisco Prime Collaboration system, see which can help or not.
    I have few questions about the Cisco Prime Collaboration Provisioning (CPCP) for SME customer / Cisco Prime Collaboration Assurance (CPCA) for Big customer.
    1. CPCP Standard version is free? one cluster? no adv. features? What is the adv. features on adv. versions?
    2. I see the CPCP will deploy the new configurations into the CM clusters, that is fine on the new CM, but the existing CM will access the CPCP push into new configurations? Any impacts will happen on delopying the new CPCP into the existing CM?
    3. CPCA lic. counted by every end devices, that is really expensive. Any cost effective methods to deploy the CPCA?
    4. If we want to monitor the TP endpoints or DX video phones, I have to plug the lan to the 37XX or above switches? 29XX cannot?

    Hi,
    Been out of the office but see that no one has yet responded to this. I can answer some of the questions.
    1. CPCP Standard version is free?
    CUCM 10+ users are entitled to use the Standard version.
     one cluster?
    Yes
     no adv. features?
    Not missing a lot, especially for smaller one cluster networks.
    What is the adv. features on adv. versions?
    The Standard and Advanced versions are pretty much the same except for the following:
    Advanced can handle multi-cluster networks
    Advanced allows administrator delegation. This means that different administrators can be assigned to different groups of end-users.
    Standard does not have advanced workflows (Approver, MAC assigner, Shipper and Receiver).
    Advanced provides a northbound API for integration to another network management application, HR system or custom UI.
    2. I see the CPCP will deploy the new configurations into the CM clusters, that is fine on the new CM, but the existing CM will access the CPCP push into new configurations?
    CPCP can push configurations to new or existing clusters. Changes made directly on a cluster will be pulled back to PCP so they stay in sync.
    Any impacts will happen on deploying the new CPCP into the existing CM?
    CPCP was designed to add to a UC network at any time. When added to an existing network, CPCP can use it's reverse sync process to import users and CM configurations.
    3. CPCA lic. counted by every end devices, that is really expensive.
    List price may appear really expensive but you need to work with a sales person to determine the actual price. There is also the option to have an enterprise license agreement which might be more cost effective if this is for a Big Customer.
    Any cost effective methods to deploy the CPCA?
    ELA as mentioned above, or use the free standard version.  It the standard version provides enough functionality, it might be an option.  Cost effective may be hard to define.  If the product significantly lowers the cost to operate the network (faster fault resolution, less administrators, usage reports, resource utilization savings, etc.) it would be cost effective.  I don't know how big the Big Customer is or what/how many endpoints/devices/apps are in the network so I cannot provide any better advice.
    I am not sure how to answer the last question so will leave it for a TME or other expert on CPCA.  It looks like a medianet question. CPCA is not completely dependent on medianet to monitor TP environments and can provide some call trace and performance without it.  This is best answered by someone on the Assurance PM/TME team.

  • Cisco Prime Collaboraiton Standard Licenses

    Dear Team,
    I have a customer purchased Cisco CUWL PRO & Enhanced Licenses for 10,000 Users for Unified CM version 8.0 and now he is asking for upgrade to version 10.5. The question is :
    1-since he did reinstatement for different type of licenses and already has the order, Should the customer entitle Cisco Prime Collaboration licenses by default or he has to purchase them separately?
    2-Does the customer going to receive Cisco Prime Collaboration Standard (Porvisioning and Assurance only) ?, If so for How many license Users it comes by default?. If less than 10000 ,then how to order the remaining?.
    Thanks in advance
    Regards,

    Prime collaboration standard is free and does not require any licenses. Advanced license is separate from any UC user licenses:
    Cisco Prime Collaboration Packaging: Standard and Advanced Options
    Beginning with version 10.0, Cisco Prime Collaboration is provided in two different offerings. Cisco Prime Collaboration Standard is included with all Cisco Unified Workspace Licensing and Cisco User Connect Licensing, and Cisco Prime Collaboration Advanced is available for upgrade. The Standard option is only available and compatible with Cisco UC 10.0. The Advanced option supports Cisco UC 8.x - UC 10.x. The Standard option enables provisioning of all voice and video services purchased and fault monitoring across voice and video for a single cluster environment. For deployments that require more advanced management, Cisco Prime Collaboration Advanced offers multi-cluster scale, additional automation, deeper diagnostic capabilities, and long-term reporting. This order guide addresses Cisco Prime Collaboration Advanced only.
    Customers who are interested in Cisco Prime Collaboration Advanced may activate the “Advanced Evaluation” from within the Prime Collaboration Standard GUI, for a 60 day term, or may purchase a permanent Cisco Prime Collaboration Advanced. For more information about license installation, please refer to the Cisco Prime Collaboration Quick Start Guide 10.0 posted on Cisco.com under ‘Install and Upgrade Guides.

  • Cisco Prime NCS v1.1 Eval Download

    Hello,
    I've been trying to download the evaluation of Cisco Prime NCS v1.1 from the eval page located at the below address so I could, well, evaluate it.
    https://cisco.mediuscorp.com/market/networkers/productView.se.work?/nxt/rcrs/proieidentity/=19841
    But I've been getting corrupt downloads and can't extract the .OVA file.  I've tried this on a few computers and 2 different OSs, but to no success.
    Am I doing something wrong?
    Thank you in advance and sorry if this is the wrong forum to ask this question.

    @wireless.wlc
    I installed it on a Cisco UCS server running vSphere 4.1 (ESXi).  The template wants to make it thick provision, but for testing purposes I just made it thin provision.  After only adding maybe... 20 switches, 18 APs and 1 WLC it takes up just shy of 40 GB.
    If you try to install on a 50GB hard drive or a datastore that's less than 200GB available, it will probably just give you a warning.  But I'm not 100% sure since this is being deployed from from an OVA template.
    I'll install it again on a datastore with only 100GB to test and see if it works that way.

    Or it has any OVI template like CUCM or how do I install and integrate  it?
    Please help me to proceed in this case..
    Rgds,
    Rebecca
    God bless u all!!

    Hi Rebecca,
    Well....at least you're getting there
    I believe you'd need glabaladmin for the UI as admin is for cli;
    User Accounts
    For  Prime Collaboration, you will be required to specify various passwords  at different instances. This section is designed to help you specify  appropriate passwords in several scenarios that demand your login  credentials (applicable for both converged application and standalone  Prime Collaboration Assurance and Prime Collaboration Provisioning  applications).
    •globaladmin- A superuser who can access both Prime Collaboration Assurance and Prime Collaboration Provisioning UIs.
    •globaladmin  password- Specify this password when you configure your virtual  appliance for either standalone or converged applications. See Configuring the Prime Collaboration Assurance Virtual Appliance and Configuring the Prime Collaboration Provisioning Virtual Appliance. You are also required to specify this password when you log in to the UI (see Password Rules for root User and globaladmin).
    In  Prime Collaboration Provisioning, this password is synched with the  password of postgres admin (to perform backup and restore operations).  The password is then updated in the database and in the /opt/cupm/sep/dfc.properties file. You must log in as a root user to access the dfc.properties file.
    Note If  you plan to install both Prime Collaboration Assurance and Prime  Collaboration Provisioning, ensure that you specify the same password  for both applications during installation.
    •CLI Admin Username—The default username is admin. However, you can specify the username of your choice.
    •CLI  Admin Password—Specify a password for the SSH CLI admin. This password  is used to log in to the CLI to check the application status and perform  backup and restore (see Password Rules for CLI admin).
    The  CLI is supported only through SSH; Telnet is not supported. You can log  in through SSH using port 26 for Assurance and port 22 for Provisioning.
    •Root user—A superuser who has all privileges in Linux shell.
    •Root password—Specify a password for the root user (see Password Rules for root User and globaladmin).
    Password Rules for root User and globaladmin
    •Must contain at least one of each: lowercase letter, uppercase letter, number, and special characters.
    •No character in the password may be repeated more than three times consecutively.
    •Cannot contain non-ASCII characters, %, +, and &.
    •Cannot be cisco or ocsic or any variant obtained by changing the capitalization of letters therein, or by substituting 1,!, or | for i, substituting 0 for o, or substituting $ for s.
    •Cannot be same as the username, and cannot be the username reversed.
    •Must contain from 8 to 80 characters.
    •Cannot end with these characters: *, ; or #.
    Caution We recommend that you write down the root password, as it cannot be retrieved.
    Note•To  change the root password, you must log in as root user and execute the  "passwd" command, which prompts you for a new password.
    •If  you are planning to integrate Provisioning and Assurance servers, make  sure that you adhere to the Assurance-specific globaladmin password  rules while setting up / creating the password for globaladmin in  Provisioning.
    Password Rules for CLI admin
    •Must contain atleast six characters.
    •Must contain at least one of each: lowercase letter, uppercase letter, and number.
    •Must not be the same as the username itself.
    Installation Prompts
    We  recommend that you find out the values beforehand for the following  parameters, as you will be required to enter them at the console prompts  when you configure the virtual appliance:
    •IP address—The IP address of the virtual appliance. If you wish to change the IP address, see
    •IP default netmask—The default subnet mask for the IP address
    •IP default gateway—The IP address of the default gateway
    •Default DNS domain—The default domain name
    •Primary nameserver—The primary name server. You may add a name server. To configure several name servers, enter y.
    •Primary NTP server[time.nist.gov]—The primary NTP server. To enter a secondary NTP server, enter y at the next prompt.
    Note Prime Collaboration 9.5 supports three NTP servers. To configure a tertiary NTP server, enter y at the next prompt, after you specify a secondary NTP server.
    •Timezone—The  timestamp that is displayed on the UI is the server time. By default,  the configured timezone is UTC. For a list of supported timezones, see Supported Timezones for Prime Collaboration. You must use the same timezone for Prime Collaboration Assurance and Prime Collaboration Provisioning servers in converged mode.
    •Username—The CLI admin username. The default is admin. However, you can specify the username of your choice.
    •Password—The  CLI admin password. This password is used to log in to the CLI to check  the application status and perform backup and restore.
    •Root user—A superuser who has all privileges in Linux shell.
    •Root password—Specify a password for the root user.
    •globaladmin—A  superuser of the application who has all privileges, and whose account  used for initial login to the application (UI).
    •globaladmin password—Specify a password for the globaladmin.
    •Network deployment mode-Select the network deployment mode you need. Specify E for Enterprise Deployment or M for Managed Service Provider Deployment (E/M).

  • Cisco Prime on UCS/VMware

    I have provisioned a VMware environment for Cisco Prime. The Network Engineer has already created the Prime 2.1 VM. However the environment created is a 5.5 environment. Now there is some doubt as to Prime 2.1 is supported on VMware 5.5. At present the VM is running. However is there any compatibility/support constrains ? The Servers are C240M3 s.
    Regards,
    Naleendra

    Naleendra, 
    This is a question to Prime folks, here we'd deal with UCS and vmware compatibility. 
    That being said, quick google search away I found this for prime 2.1 
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/net_mgmt/prime/infrastructure/2-1/quickstart/guide/cpi_qsg.html#99048
    This seems to indicate ESX 5.5 is not among the supported by prime 2.1.

  • How to choose Cisco Prime NCS

    Dear Cisco Team,
    I would like to know what are the main facts to choose Cisco Prime NCS.
    And how many kind of monitoring system are there in Cisco.
    Best Regards,
    Thet Htar

    Hi Thet,
    Cisco Prime Infrastructure simplifies the management of wireless and wired networks. It offers Day 0 and 1 provisioning, as well as Day N assurance from the branch to the data center. We call it One Management. With this single view and point of control, you can reap the benefits of One Management across both network and compute.
    Prime Infrastructure enables you to configure and monitor one or more controllers, switches and associated access points. Prime Infrastructure includes the same configuration, performance monitoring, security, fault management, and accounting options used at the controller level and adds a graphical view of multiple controllers and managed access points.
    Read the below link  for more detail::
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/prime_infrastructure/1-2/configuration/guide/pi_12_cg/ovr.html
    You can download it from here and use it under evaluation period for testing::

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 OVA - URL/FTP not working

    The ESXi install of the theNCS  OVA was successful. NCS seems to load and activate interfaces. The console session is working. Using compliant browsers; https://<ip address> does not work. When I stop "ncs" or halt the vm the web page responds shortly but then the connection is lost.  I used "show ports" and tried https://<ip address>/8082 and get a login from the Cisco Prime Infrastructure Health Monitor URL. There is a prompt for the authorization key. How can I confirm the installation is complte and all services are up and running
    Thanks
    Terry

    After digging almost 1 month, I found the answer.
    When you do provision from ESXi with ova file, you have to create "Thick Provision" otherwise, you wiil have same problem such as "some services are not up"
    In my case, I am running ESXi on the top of VM WorkStation since I don't have any ESXi server. When I added 250GB into the WorkStation and did provision with "Thick" it works !!! 
    Since my testing envrionment is little complicated (ESXi with VM WorkStation), I added first 250GB HDD into ESXi, and tried. It didn't work. So I added 250GB into VM WorkStation and did provision through Workstation, it worked (If you don't understand this statements, do not worry. If you have ESXi server, you don't need to worry about)
    As far as cisco ova is concerned, when I talked to one of my my friend who was working for new ACS (Virtual Appliance) he had same issue. He also solved with "Thick Provision"
    FYI, even if when I installed with "Thin Provision", PI 1.2 used only 10GB out of 200GB, so I did not think that I should use "Think Provision". But definitely not.

  • Cisco Prime 2.1-Traffic Classification

    Hi Experts,
    In cisco Prime 2.1, under Performance->service assurance, Top N Application shows 'unknown traffic' as highly utilized. How to find out what is that type of traffic..?
    Thanks in advance

    You can thin provision. Trying to change the overall profile though will most likely result in issues sooner or later. When you run out of disk space it will fail in ungraceful ways.

  • Cisco Prime 2.1 Archive Search

    in past versions of CiscoWorks I was able to search configuration archives.
