Cluster Management Software on Catalyst 2950

Hi There,
I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to provide me with some help on getting the CMS software running on a Cisco Catalyst 2950 Switch. I have followed all the instructions I could find on getting the software to load from the Switch, but it will not load. Can anyone help me?
Thank you in advance.

  • Lookin for a NMS such as CiscoWorks network management software

    hi everybody
    I 'm lookin' for CiscoWorks network management software or equivalent on support section on cisco website support.
    I want it to configure snmp on my catalyst 2950 and get some results likes input and output traffic rate on my catalyst, all trafic generated by equipment connected on my catalyst with some detailes likes equipement ip, input and output trafic rate, graph and son on.
    I don't find it on the cisco website so I think they'll have an equivalent on the website but I don't know.
    If someone has an idea or a link...
    Thank you

    Hi Serge,
    Are looking to obtain software that you can install and use, or are you looking for documentation for software you already have?
    One type of network management software freely available is MRTG, it will produce graphs of network traffic, a very handy utility:
    http://www.mrtg.com/
    Another freeware NMS, if I'm not mistaken, is Nagios:
    http://www.nagios.org/products/nagiospowered/
    We do have some software available for device configuration also (depending on the device). Perhaps the Cisco Netowrk Assistant? You can navigate there from http://www.cisco.com . Choose Support, and under Otion 2, choose "Download Software". Then select "Netowrk Management", "Routing and Switching Management", and "Cisco Network Assistant". Follow the navigation, and you should be able to have a tool to help configure your devices.
    Cheers,

  • Cisco Network Management software options

    Hi,
    I wanted to see if anyone can give me a quick breakdown on the differences between some Network Management software titles.  I dont know when you would use each one or what the limitations are of each.

    Has anyone used these and can give a quick answer for when you would use each and if there are any gotchas or limits to watch out for?
    It looks like Prime is a paid for product but will any of the free solutions (CNA, CCP, CCA) work with all enterprise level products (2950, 2960, 3560, 3750, 4948, 4900 4500 switches and 1800, 1900, 2800, 2900, 3800, 3900 routers) or do you have to use Prime to get a product that will mange these devices?

  • Network DR test causes Exchange DAG network to fail (Failover Cluster Manager reports comms errors)

    We have a DAG configured between 2 mailbox servers, one in each of our main data centres. Our comms team recently performed a DR test between our 2 data centres, switiching from the main production link to the backup link. During this outage the Failover
    Cluster Manager reported errors, with each mailbox server reporting the other as uncontactable. The Events that were logged include the following:
    Isatap interface isatap.{02ADE20A-D5D4-437F-AD00-E6601F7E7A9D} is no longer active. (EventID 4201)
    Cluster node 'MAILBOX_SERVER' was removed from the active failover cluster membership. The Cluster service on this node may have stopped. This could also be due to the node having lost communication with other active nodes in the failover cluster. Run the
    Validate a Configuration wizard to check your network configuration. If the condition persists, check for hardware or software errors related to the network adapters on this node. Also check for failures in any other network components to which the node is
    connected such as hubs, switches, or bridges. (EventID 1135)
    File share witness resource 'File Share Witness (\\WITNESS_SERVER\SHARE_NAME)' failed to arbitrate for the file share '\\WITNESS_SERVER\SHARE_NAME'. Please ensure that file share '\\WITNESS_SERVER\SHARE_NAME' exists and is accessible by the cluster. (EventID
    1564)
    Cluster resource 'File Share Witness (\\\WITNESS_SERVER\SHARE_NAME)' in clustered service or application 'Cluster Group' failed. (EventID 1069)
    The Cluster service is shutting down because quorum was lost. This could be due to the loss of network connectivity between some or all nodes in the cluster, or a failover of the witness disk. Run the Validate a Configuration wizard to check your network
    configuration. If the condition persists, check for hardware or software errors related to the network adapter. Also check for failures in any other network components to which the node is connected such as hubs, switches, or bridges. (EventID 1177)
    The Cluster Service service terminated with service-specific error A quorum of cluster nodes was not present to form a cluster. (EventID 7024)
    The Microsoft Exchange Information Store service terminated unexpectedly.  It has done this 1 time(s).  The following corrective action will be taken in 5000 milliseconds: Restart the service. (EventID 7031)
    Looking at the Cluster Events in the Failover Cluster Manager Snap-In i see a heap of Event ID 47 (cannot activate the DAG databases as the server is not up according to Windows Failover Cluster Service) and:
    Node status could not be recorded. This could prevent some network failure logic from functioning correctly. NodeStatus:IsHealthy=True,HasADAccess=True,ClusterErrorOverrideFalse,LastUpdate=5/2/2011 8:25:42 AMUTC Failure:An Active Manager operation failed.
    Error: An error occurred while attempting a cluster operation. Error: Cluster API '"ClusterRegSetValue() failed with 0x6be. Error: The remote procedure call failed"' failed.. (EventID 184)
    Forcefully dismounting all the locally mounted databases on server 'BACKUP_MAILBOX_SERVER. (EventID 307).
    Our Comms team doesn't believe it is a comms issue as they did not log any network communication errors between the servers in the two sites (using icmp). So if it is not a comms issue, how can I configure the Failover Cluster Manager to be resilient to
    this type of network failover event.
    Thanks
    Dan

    Isn't it also true that in a stretched DAG with even numbered nodes, the PAM needs to be in the same site as the active DAG node?  If the connection between both nodes goes down, and the PAM is in the "passive" site, the primary node will
    dismount the databases since it can't check with the PAM to make sure its safe for it to be up.  
    In a even-numbered node stretched DAG, the PAM changes to the DR/passive site everytime a failover occurs, but doesn't automatically switch back when you reactivate the primary node.

  • Missing a VM in Failover Cluster Manager

    We did eventually cut the power when shutting down the second of the two hosts in the cluster, because it got stuck at some stage during shutdown. The reason we shut down was that there were problems piling up while we moved VMs between the two nodes.
    After boot, we no longer see one of the virtual machines in the Failover Cluster Manager. In Hyper-V Manager we see it, and it runs just fine.
    How can we add the missing VM back in Failover Cluster Manager? Is there a simple way?
    All the servers are Win 2008 R2.
    Maybe a simple question - I don't know - but we just don't have enough knowledge right now, nor has searching the net resulted in anything useful. Appreciate a bit of help holding our heads above water while we learn to swim.

    You mean what I see in Cluster Events in Failover Cluster Manager? I saved it, opened it in Event Viewer, and saved it as tab delimited text. Is that ok?
    I have removed the text after the event IDs whenever the text was exactly identical to the preceding event with the same event ID, to shorten my post. I also cut away a long list of repetitive events where you see the ellipsis'.

  • Whats the storage management software for CSM200

    We have two node sun cluster using CSM200 storage and running out of space in shared filesystem. So we need to increase the space and there is no free space in metaset.
    In this case, planning to add disk in storage. We are unable to find the management software at OS level Solaris 10.
    Anyone please help me how can I find the free slot in storage?????

    Hi.
    CSM200 - is expansion for array 6140/6180/etc.
    But format report SUN-CSM200 for array *Sun StorageTek[tm] 6140 Array*
    You can have one array + expansion or 2 undepended array.
    For manage this array use software Common Array Manager ( CAM ).
    Docs for array and CAM: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E19381-01/index.html
    This software can was installed on any system on your network. Possible ever on nodes of the cluster.

  • AP541N Management Software?

    Hi is there any management software available to manage 5 or so AP541N running across a WAN. Eg we have a couple of VAP's setup on each access point 1 for staff and 1 for guests. I would like to be able to change all the WPA Personal guest access password centrally rather than having to log onto each box and edit it manually.
    Thanks
    Colin

    Hi Colin, there is not any supported software from Cisco for these units. I know CCA can detect the AP for the topology but I don't think you can actually manage them from there.
    If these AP's are installed at one location, you could cluster them and with any change made to one AP all the AP's will reflect the changes automatically.

  • How to install BDE cluster without software

    In BDE 2.1, it is documented that you can create the guests for a cluster and let the distro management software (such as Ambari) install the cluster.
    We are looking to upgrade to 2.1, but currently on 2.0.  Is it possible to simply create the VM's and then install the cluster from Ambari?  We tried installing the cluster, deleting the software (rpm --erase), and restarting the guests.  It looks like BDE reinstalls the software when this happens.
    It isn't the end of the world if we can't, as I said, we will upgrade to 2.1 this coming week.  However, is what I have above possible?

         Create a Basic Cluster with the Serengeti Command-Line Interface
    Yes, You can use BDE 2.0 or 2.1 to create a basic cluster in your Serengeti environment. A basic cluster is a group of virtual machines provisioned and managed by Serengeti. Serengeti helps you to plan and provision the virtual machines to your specifications. You can use the basic cluster's virtual machines to install Big Data applications.
    The basic cluster does not install the Big Data application packages used when creating a Hadoop or HBase cluster. Instead, you can install and manage Big Data applications with third party application management tools such as Apache Ambari or Cloudera Manager within your Big Data Extensions environment, and integrate it with your Hadoop software. The basic cluster does not deploy a Hadoop or Hbase cluster. You must deploy software into the basic cluster's virtual machines using an external third party application management tool.
    The Serengeti package includes an annotated sample cluster specification file that you can use as an example when you create your basic cluster specification file. In the Serengeti Management Server, the sample specification file is located at /opt/serengeti/samples/basic_cluster.json. You can modify the configuration values in the sample cluster specification file to meet your requirements. The only value you cannot change is the value assigned to the role for each node group, which must always be basic.
    You can deploy a basic cluster with the Big Data Extension plug-in using a customized cluster specification file.
    To deploy software within the basic cluster virtual machines, use the cluster list --detail command, or runserengeti-ssh.sh cluster_name to obtain the IP address of the virtual machine. You can then use the IP address with management applications such as Apache Ambari or Cloudera Manager to provision the virtual machine with software of your choosing. You can configure the management application to use the user name serengeti, and the password you specified when creating the basic cluster within Big Data Extensions when the management tool needs a user name and password to connect to the virtual machines.

  • Catalyst 2950 Switch flash_init error

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm new to Cisco products and have a small home lab set up. I have a Catalyst 2950 switch that I would like to restore to factory defaults. Here is the issue I'm having and can't figure out.
    I pull the power, telnet into the console port, hold the mode button and restore power. The boot loader (Version 12.1(11r) starts and says the usual message the system was interrupted prior to flash initialization (Paraphrasing here)
    I get to the switch: command line, enter flash_init. Flash states it initialized and then all I get is a < with an underscore under it prompt. Anything I try to type comes up as bizarre characters and I can not get back to a switch: prompt unless I reboot the switch manually. Unsure of what to do here.
    Thanks in advance!

    If no luck , the flash might be corrupted and requires a replacement.

  • W500: using the switchable graphics with vista ultimate without the power manager software?

    seriously, invest in a new hitachi travelstar 320gb for 49 bucks from that tiger place online and a usb hard drive caddy, pop in your free clonezilla cd and your rescue and recovery problems will be over!
    after reading all the problems with that software i figured my data was too valuble to get caught in that mess so for under 75 bucks problem solved and i rid my w500 of that bloatware. even cheaper then ordering the recovery disks from lenovo.
    working on getting rid of the rest of the useless software now.
    hey question, how do you use the switchable graphics on the w500 with vista ultimate without the power manager software? if you can thats next!!
    Moderator note: Question added to subject line for clarity.
    Message Edited by Agotthelf on 28-04-2009 08:45 AM

    That's because you are asking a T500/W500 question in the Thinkvantage forum. Anyway, the answer to your question is in this thread.
    ATI recently started packaging their switchable graphics driver together with their regular Catalyst. So downloading their latest driver Catalyst 9.4 from the ATI/AMD site and then modifying it with the Mobility Modder will allow you to use switchable graphics without the power manager. The little problem is just that the released version of the Mobility Modder stopped working with Catalyst 9.2 and you are on your own getting a modified Modder  working on 9.4, see here.
    So I decided not to make more work for myself staying on a modded Catalyst 9.1 and for the time being living without switchable graphics.

    I have 2 cisco switches model - catalyst 2950 series, i recently had an network issue regarding an ip conflict with one of my member servers, after being on the phone with microsoft support for 6 days, we were able to resolve the problem by locating the correct mac address and clearing the "OPT table on the switches" by unplugging and replugging the power cord. In order to prevent this from happening again, Microsoft had asked me to contact cisco and ask the following questions, " Are these swiches managable via the gui?  and we also need to make sure that the "Arp Cash is disabled on the switches" can anyone help in this matter?  Thanks in advance.

  • Catalyst 2950 Standard or Enhanced Image

    Hello,
    can someone, please, tell me the software difference between Catalist WS-C2950G-24-EI and WS-C2950C-24. The product adviser is not very clear about it.
    Thank you in advance.
    Cordially.

    Hello Maxime,
    basically, the EI has more advanced QoS and Security features.
    Check this document for a comparison:

  • Catalyst 2950 Protocol

    Hi,
    We received this question from our CSC Twitter community.
    Miles312
    @cisco_support Am a Netacad student; was working with a Catalyst 2950, and ping gave protocol not running error. How can I check protocols?

    Had Layer 3 up, as we could test that with other devices, and had a VLAN set, as management vlan and had native vlan through it with IP set.
    Even pinging from the switch to another directly connected switch with the management vlan address (same subnet, layer 3 unnecessary) gave me that error.
    However, two switches on either side of the one giving me this issue could ping one another, and the PC's connected to this switch could ping to one another, and to the management interfaces through layer 3.
    See my bafflement?
    Thanks for the reply, though! Will check the procs.

  • Catalyst 2950 - Radius

    Is it possible of crypter the password radius-server on a catalyst 2950. (example: "radius-server key 7 toto")?

    Tagging on to this discussion from another thread in the forum:
    Actually the answer to this question is very highly release dependent. Earlier releases did not support it. Current releases do. I am not sure where the change is and believe it may be a 12.3 (or maybe even a 12.3T) enhancement. I have quite a few routers (most with TACACS and some with Radius) where the key is encrypted. When I started with those routers the key was not encrypted. At some point in doing a software version upgrade the keys for TACACS/Radius started being encrypted.
    The encryption of the TACACS/Radius key is part of the service password encryption. The service has been enhanced several times to increase the number of keys that it protects. If you have service password encryption enabled (and in a live network I hope that you do) and have a release that supports the new enhancement your TACACS/Radius key will be encrypted automatically. If your version of IOS does not support it yet the key will not be encrypted.

  • Nexus 5000 Fabric Management Software

    Do I need the Fabric Management software to configure the FC & FCoE features on the N5K?
    Can I use the unlicensed version, if I just have (2) N5K's in a cluster?
    Do I still need to install the database, if I don't use the Performance Monitor?

    yes, you do. If you want to use the server version. There is another option, called "standalone", to pick during the installation. It was free as I know.
