Let me add to this list a number of issues that seem to be widespread with respect to the sync engine:
Sync engine does not recognize existing content on install of PSE7 if it's an upgrade from a previous version.  Changed photos get sync'd, but you have to make a change to everything to get it all picked up by the engine.
Sync stalls regularly.  No indication is given to the user that sync is no longer progressing (double green arrows remain).  However, the sync process stops consuming CPU and stops communicating with API.PHOTOSHOP.COM (both verifyable using resource manager).
Sync is extreemly slow.  The upload times are an order of magnitude longer than my available bandwidth would permit.  This appears to be due to the excessive handshaking necessary for each individual upload (no bulk transfer implemented).
Not necessarily a bug, but the lack of status information about the sync progress is dismal.
Let's hope the PSE7 team is as receptive to user help in troubleshooting as the PS.COM team turned out to be...

    Could you please send me an example how this can be done? Also could you please tell me where we can get the TaskID?
    I have tried this with an example service created. But when I hit the URL as you said I can see only a 500 error page on the browser. I have got the RequisitionEntryID by using the SOAP call getRequisitionStatus.

    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

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1 - User Tracking

    Hello All,
    I am facing some issues with user tracking for wired clients. I have configured PI to track one particular mac address, such that every time that mac is identified in the network an alarm should be generated.  I have configured mac notification also in the switch ports. I observed that when the device is connected the switch is sending the mac change notification to prime but alarm is not generated until I go to " Administration>Back ground tasks>wired client status" and manually execute the task. Our requirement is that the client should send some trap to prime and prime should poll the client on receiving the trap and update the client database, subsequently generate the alarm.
    Thanks
    Shabeeb Kunhipocker

    Programmatic access to PI's data is via the REST API.
    Check the help menu on your PI server to see documentation regarding the supported tables and fields that can be queried via that method.

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure and VLAN fetch

    I have about a dozen systems which are showing up under the Archive Failed Devices section of Device Work Center -> Configuration Archives.  The reason is Fetch VLAN configuration - Command failed.  All of the affected devices have something in common in that they are all managed by hitting a publicly routable IP address outside of the network on which the NCS server lives (NCS IP is 172.19.40.51).  To the devices, NCS looks like it is coming from an publicly routable IP address (because it is NAT'd by the firewall).  I suspected that the issue was that NCS was trying to TFTP the VLAN.dat file to the NCS server but that it was trying to send it to 172.19.40.51 instead of the NAT address.  I turned on debugs on one of the affected devices and sure enough I see that the device is trying to TFTP something to 172.19.40.51.  Of course that will never work.  I can find no way within the Admin UI of Cisco Prime to change this behavior such that NCS will try to collect the VLAN.dat file in some other way or use the NAT'd IP address for the copy attempt.
    Is there a way to get it to use something other than TFTP?  Is there some way to turn this off entirely so that it doesn't show up in the Archive Failed Devices section?  Prime seems to be able to parse the VLANs by way of the configuration file (since we use transparent mode throughout) so it seems like an extra step I don't need.

    Marvin,
    This is where everything goes off the rails for me when it comes to understanding Prime Infrastruction, Prime LMS and everything that you're talking about.  Refer to this link:  http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/cloud-systems-management/prime-lan-management-solution/data_sheet_c78-697479.html
    How should I interpret this?:
    "Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.1 bundles campus switch, branch, core routing, and wireless LAN management into a single, easy-to-order solution that enables businesses and enterprises unparalleled operational efficiencies and investment protection. The bundle consists of:
    ● Cisco Prime LAN Management Solution, which delivers simplified management of Cisco® Borderless Networks and reduces operations costs by aligning network management functionality the way network operators do their jobs
    ● Cisco Prime Network Control System, which provides complete wireless LAN management with converged user and access management, and integrated lifecycle management of branch routers
    For more information about Cisco Prime Infrastructure, please visit http://www.cisco.com/go/primeinfrastructure."
    Am I wrong to assume that the first bullet point, which states "Cisco Prime LAN Management Solution" is referring to Prime LMS 4.2?
    Thanks,
    Steven

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 -- Third Party Devices

    Hello,
    we are using cisco prime infrastructure 2.0. Is it possible to manage third party devices? (We have a lot of Enterasys Switches)
    When i want to Archive the config of the device there is an error --> No Device Package found for the specific device.
    It is necessary to install device packages for third party devices? Where can i find and install these packages?
    Thx in advance

    it seems not to be on the road-map according to the functional /feature comparison between LMS and PI 2.0:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/prod/collateral/netmgtsw/ps6504/ps6528/ps12239/guide_c07-729089.html
    ...and I doubt it will come (quickly) because config management has a lot of pitfalls and Cisco has a lot to do to get around all of them with their own devices..
    However, Inventory Management for third party devices is on the road-map
    older version of the document (feature comparison PI 1.2 - LMS 4.2) can be found here:

  • Cisco Prime - User Tracking for N5K

    Hi,
    We are using Cisco Prime LMS 4.2.4. It isn't getting any user tracking information from our Nexus 5K's. Should it be able to?

    Indeed.
    As I noted and Arfroz confirmed, the User Tracking functionality requires the target device supports the SNMP-BRIDGE-MIB. If that is important to you, then an upgrade is in order.
    It's not a big deal to upgrade - just schedule some downtime and knock it out. The actual upgrade process only takes about 15 minutes per Nexus 5k. I usually schedule 1-2 hours for a pair of them just to allow myself time for some testing (and backout if necessary). I've done about dozen or two 5k upgrades and never had a problem yet - it's a very straightforward process.
