CiscoWorks RME - Telnet Failed

We are trying to create an archive of our device configs. When we try this we get the following error:
TELNET: Failed to establish TELNET connection to 10.0.8.2 - Cause: Authentication failed on device 3 times. PRIMARY-RUNNING config Fetch Operation failed for TFTP. SSH: Failed to establish SSH connection to 10.0.8.2 - Cause: Authentication failed on device 3 times. Failed to fetch config using RCP.Verify RCP is enabled or not.
CiscoWorks LMS 3.2, RME 4.3
The following config is on the router:
line con 0
login local
line aux 0
line vty 0 4
privilege level 15
login local
transport input telnet ssh
line vty 5 15
Not sure what to do to fix this.

Remote into the LMS server, and from there make sure you can telnet into this device. If so, you need to enter the same credentials you just used to telnet to this device under CS > Device and Credentials > Device Managment > Edit Credentials. Enter the proper username and password under "Primary Credential". Then try to backup the configuration once again.

TELNET: Failed to establish TELNET connection

Hi,
I've launched a NetShow job against several routers. The job result is successful but appears the following message:
Deploy successful (TELNET: Failed to establish TELNET connection to 10.253.49.34 - Cause: Authentication failed on device 3 times. Primary Login Succeeded / Primary Enable Succeeded )
We have only access by ssh to the routers, no telnet is configured, so that message is OK. But, how could I configure CW to try only ssh connection mode to routers? Swiches use telnet instead of ssh...so I should configure only telnet as connection mode...
Thanks in advance.

You can set the protocol order for Configuration Management applications such as Archive Management, Config Editor, and NetConfig jobs to download configurations and to fetch configurations. For NetShow, you can set the protocol order to download configurations.
You havent mentioned the LMS version as path to this feature would differ. I will provide navigation link for both lms 3 and 4.

Ciscoworks RME 4.0 SNMP Config Change

Hi,
I was locked out one of my routers. I cannot access it via Telnet, SSH, TFTP, SCP, etc. However, I remembered once I reconfigured the router via SNMP community string. Does anyone know how I can change router config via SNMP community string using CiscoWorks RME 4.0?
Thanks!

You can use RME ---> Config Mgmt --> NetConfig --> NetConfig Jobs . For specific steps, read the users guide below for information about different user defined task you can use.

Ciscoworks - RME 4.3.1 Sotfware distribution needs 32MB minimum in Flash

Hello,
I’m having the need to upgrade over one hundred Cat2900 to a newer image. When I run the software distribution application on Ciscoworks (RME 4.3.1) I get the “catastrophic” warning described below. The new image is only 7MB and there are 22MB free in flash. Is there any way to by-pass this requirement checking???
Catastrophic - SWIM1200: Selected Flash partition requires minimum (32 MB) to upgrade selected software/image. Select a different Flash partition for upgrading the image.

Hi,
Try the below steps and I hope this should work:
1- Go to RME > Software Management > Software Repository
2 - Select the image you are trying to push (Click on the file name)
3- Change the Minimum RAM to a lower value than the RAM you have on the
device
4 - Click on Update
5 - Try the SWIM job again

CiscoWorks RME 4.3 syslog forwarding

Hello,
We are running CiscoWorks RME 4.3 and forwarding syslog messages to another syslog server. To forward messages we use script from https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-11592
All is working great at the begining of month. With growing of syslog.log file, forwarded messages are delayed more and more. Because of Syslog Analyzer monthly reports we have log rotate at every 1st day of month.
So question:
Is it possible to write syslogs to two different files? One which will rotate as described above, and other which will be used by syslog_forward.pl and rotated every day?
Thanks in advance!
Regards!
Marko

You cannot do this on Windows with the LMS syslog server. All messages will be written to one file. Logrot in LMS can archive the log files instead of just rotating them. This way, you can keep messages as long as you want. Just specify a non-zero number of backups when configuring Log Rotation. The archived files will be created with a numeric extension (e.g. syslog.log.1, syslog.log.2, etc.). Those files can be further archived manually to long-term storage.

CiscoWorks RME 4.1.1 - CRIN0014 Error

Hello,
Not sure when this started, but I noticed the following error when trying to go to the report generator in RME:
CRIN0014: Operation failed while connecting to JRM. Make sure jrm and/or CTMJrmWrapper services are running.
I went and made sure all that I downloaded and applied all patches available to Common Services and RME and this did not do anything. The server is connected to ACS and I re-joined them and re-registered all my applications. The other thing I am noticing is when I go to do practically anything in RME that involved the device selector RME shows 0 devices, but in the RME home page I see all 900+ of my devices listed as "normal".
This is a weird issue that just came out of nowhere. Has anyone seen behavior like this in the past? Not sure what I would need to post as far as log files, etc. but I can provide them as needed.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
AJ Schroeder

AJ,
With this version of RME you MAY be hitting bug CSCte49301. Based on the release note there is a workaround you can try (see below):
--Workaround
Shutdown CiscoWorks Daemon Manager with the following command from the server's command prompt:
net stop crmdmgtd
Delete the following two files:
NMSROOT\MDC\tomcat\webapps\rme\WEB-INF\lib\ctmregistry
NMSROOT\MDC\tomcat\webapps\rme\WEB-INF\lib\ctmregistry.backup
Restart CiscoWorks Daemon Manager with the following command:
net start crmdmgtd
If that does not work, then the Windows Remote Management service must be stopped, and disabled. Then, CiscoWorks Daemon Manager must be restarted.
It also could be a permission issue with teh system identity user and its permission on ACS. Ensure the system identity username is configured in ACS with full access privileges in the Ciscoworks "Shared Profile" components.

Using CiscoSecureACS with CiscoWorks-RME

I need help in configuring CiscoWorks to use CiscoSecureACS for login authentication. I have specified TACACS+ as the login module. I am able to login with a account from the ACS server. However, the permissions aren't configured correctly. When I login with the ACS server account, options aren't displayed (e.g., under RME, Administration, Inventory, Add Devices...the Add Device option isn't present). Please advise.

To be succinct, ACS doesn't have all the fields that are required by Ciscoworks. That is why you still need to define the user profiles in ACS.
ACS is simply an authenticator. Ciscoworks still handles authorization. Look at the fields available in Ciscoworks and you'll see there are a number of roles that each user can take. I suppose Cisco may someday include extensions in ACS to handle the specific CiscoWorks profile fields but that isn't the case today.
I think the advantage to using ACS is the centralized authentication. Users don't have to change their passwords in multiple places. Logon violations are recorded in one place.
You'll find that once you define the profiles in CiscoWorks they will remain quite static.

CiscoWorks LMS Backup Failed - Insufficient Disk Space

Hello,
I am experiencing backup failure on the LMS 3.2. Following is the message
Backup failed on 2010/08/14 at 23:11:11. REASON: Insufficient disk space on backup destination volume. Available Space is 65367892Kb and required space for backup is 78515097Kb.
Could you please assist as to why is 78GB of space required for the backup. The total size of main CiscoWorks folder 'CSCOpx' is only 33GB.
How can I identify which processes, folders are occupying more space thereby increasing the backup capacity. Also, are the previous backups, backed up again on subsequent runs. Please assist.
Thanks.

The LMS backup destination partition needs twice the space the backup will take (plus 10%) to copy out the files first before archiving them in the backup. Therefore, if the CSCOpx directory is 33 GB, your backup partition will require around 72 GB of free space.

Ciscoworks RME - RICS001 error

Hi,
Kindly Enable the Debugging for Inventory and send me the log files:
If LMS 3.2:
Go to RME > Admin > System Preferences > Application Log Level Settings under Application select ICServer
If it is LMS 4.0 : Go to
Admin >debug settings > Config and Image Management Debugging settings >>
Application Log Level Settings under Application select ICServer
Change the Logging level to DEBUG for all the Modules > Click Apply
Then ran a new Inventory Job and send me the IC_server.log   (Location : NMSROOT\CSCopx\Log)
In the meantime try to Increase the SNMP Timeout and RETRY ,if you have not tried this yet:
LMS 3.2:
go to RME>Admin >system prefernece >RME device attributes :
LMS 4.0 :
Admin > Collection Settings > Inventory > Inventory/Config Timeout and Retry Settings
change the SNMP time out to 14 and SNMP RETRY to 3
and ran the job and see how it works !!!
Thanks

Ciscoworks RME Syslog Automation Actions

I set up RME several years ago on our Ciscoworks several running LMS 3.2 to notify us on any BGP flaps via email notification.
I noticed the last couple maintenance period where we had perform Circuit work with our ISP's. We haven't received any emails....I verified those
routers are configured to send notifications in the Device Selector and even checked the router logs.
004161: Nov 20 05:04:52 EST: %BGP-5-ADJCHANGE: neighbor X.X.X.X Down BGP Notification sent
004162: Nov 20 05:04:52 EST: %BGP-3-NOTIFICATION: sent to neighbor X.X.X.X 4/0 (hold time expired) 0 bytes
The syslog collector status appears to be normal.....is there anything I need to do the fix this?

Hi,
Are you receiving any emails from your LMS server? If not, navigate to Common Services > Server > Admin > System Preferences to enter your SMTP settings.
Identifying the syslog message is one step but there are more.
AUTOMATED ACTIONS
Set Up
By default, Automated Actions are used to notify via email, using the `sampleEmailScript.pl` as the script to run. If you do not want to use this, you could write or use your own scripts to perform the action that you really want. In this case please note that we do not provide support for any custom scripts if the problem seems to be related to the script that you are using.
You still need the following settings:
1. Select Devices
In *RME > Tools > Syslog > Automated Actions* and click on create and select the devices that you wish to use.
2. Define Message Type
Please give a name to the Automated Action and then click on add to define a message type. In here, please specify the following values:
    Facility: BGP
    Sub-facility: *
    Severity: 5
    Mnemonic: ADJCHANGE
    Description: *
3. Select Automated Action
Select the default script or the script that you wish to use. Please note that this script must be located in the *CSCOpx/files/scripts/syslog* file and needs to have only write/execute permissions for casuser/Administrator in Windows.
This way when a message matching the above is generated, the Automated Action is triggered and this will run the script that you choose and do the commands that it has specified.
Here is an example:
If you verify that your setup is correctly configured then take a look at the smtp.log found under ../CSCOpx/log.
Thanks.

Old devices in Ciscoworks RME

I'm using LMS2.6. RME is version 4.06. I have a number of devices show up in my reports that no longer exist. I can't delete them as they don't appear in the DCR. When I try to add them back in, I get an error saying they already exist.
Can someone please tell me where I can delete these old devices?
Thanks!

I have finally found the answer after hunting high and low.

Once I added the devices into ACS, they appeared in my DCR so now they can be deleted

Ciscoworks RME 4.2 rmeng databases

Wondering how I can truncate, purge, rotate etc the SyslogFirst, SyslogSecond, SyslogThird database files.
They are currently huge (14 GB, 12 GB, and 28GB) and I could use the space.

Hi Kristen,
Procedure for cleaning up the db space:
Prerequisite, execute the following commands in the server, under
NMSROOT\CSCOpx\bin:
STEP 1) pdterm RMEDbEngine
STEP 2) pdexec RMEDbEngine
This is to ensure that there are no active connections to the database which is a must for dropping/recreating db space.
STEP 3) I'm attaching a DBSpaceReclaimer.class file. Please copy it to a temporary directory, example: e:\Temp and issue the
Following command:
STEP 4) E:\Program Files\cwlms3\lib\jre\bin\java -cp ;E:\Program Files\cwlms3\lib\classpath;E:\Program
Files\cwlms3\www\classpath;E:\Program Files\cwlms3\MDC\Tomcat\webapps\rme\WEB-INF\classes\;E:\ProgramFiles\cwlms3\MDC\tomcat\webapps\rme\WEB-INF\lib\log4j.jar DBSpaceReclaimer
STEP 5) Restart daemon manger after completion of above task.
For example:
E:\Program Files\cwlms3\lib\jre\bin>java -cp e:\Temp;E:\Program
Files\cwlms3\classpath;E:\Program Files\cwlms3\www\classpath;E:\Program
Files\cwlms3\MDC\Tomcat\webapps\rme\WEB-INF\classes;E:\Program
Files\cwlms3\MDC\Tomcat\webapps\rme\WEB-INF\lib\log4j.jar DBSpaceReclaimer
NOTE: this is one command.
Thanks-

CISCOWORKS - RME netconfig error

When I go to RME>Config Mgnt>NetConfig>User-Define Task i receive the follow error:
CFG0053: No User-defined tasks are available.
I don't can do any configuration.
the version of RME is 4.1.1 and the licence is for 100 equipments, I must update the module? or someone know why appear this error?

I think the problem is more serious
as seen, does not allow me create any task: in the menu, "Tasks" on the left can not deploy any device.
When i go create a task in RME>Config Mgmt>Netconfig>Netconfig jobs i cant not select ALL the devices as shown in the picture below: the host ING_C58_Sw_P2_03 can not choose, instead the other can choose
which will be the cause?

RME Archive Sync fails

I have two 7206 routers that I can't get the configs from. I have double checked credentials. The failures show as:
CM0151 PRIMARY RUNNING Config fetch failed for ber10 Cause: TELNET: Failed to establish TELNET connection to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - Cause: Authentication failed on device 3 times.
I can login to the Ciscoworks box and manually telnet to these using the Windows Telnet client.
I collected a sniffer trace and have attached it. Appreciate any comments/help. It looks like the Ciscoworks server just closes the connection after it sees the Password: prompt.
Steve

OK, I figured out the problem. These 2 devices do not use TACACS but all our other devices do. These 2 use the password on the VTY lines and an enable password. In the device credentials I was specifying the VTY password as the USERNAME and then the enable password as the password and enable password. So RME was looking for a Username prompt and never got one. I changed the credentials to specify a password and enable password only and this works. Thanks for your help.
