LMS 3.2 and RME NetConfig Job - No Devices

I'm runnig CW LMS 3.2 on Solaris 10. If I go to Resource Management Essentials, click on NetConfig, and then select "create" as in "create a NetConfig job", it takes me to the Netconfig Jobs screen. On this screen, I check  "select all devices ", but afterwards it says that "0 devices selected". There are over 1000 devices in our inventory, so I cannot understand why they are not found. They are visible on the system module, and in RME-Devices. But they are not availalble for RME Netconfig jobs.
Any ideas?

When I enter the NetConfig jobs screen, I click on "create" ,which takes me to the next screen, where I click on "device" , which takes me to the next screen where I have a select "device box" and a "select task" box. Checking the "all devices" option results in "0 devices select". If I click on the "+" sign on the "all devices" option to expand a list of all devices, it changes to a "-" but does not show any devices.
About the screen shot, due to the confidential nature of my work environment, I may not be allowed to do that. I'm checking with the security manager about that now.

  • LMS 3.2 on Solaris 10 - New devices and RME archive job

    Hi All,
    I've created a RME job that archive syncs our devices. When I add new devices to Common Services, which updates RME, will those new devices have their configurations archived by that same RME job, or do I need to create a new job?
    When the existing job was created the option "All Devices" was selected.
    Thanks,
    Jose Ribeiro

    Hi Jose,
    If you really wants to track the devices configuration with the help of RME Jobs ( sometimes for auditing purpose we have to have a job ), then you can schedule a job as well but with the option Group Selector like (Select A Layer: Device SelectorGroup Selector ). You can see this option at the very top while creating the job. If you select this option, the membership of the group is dynamic in nature i.e this job will run on all those devices which exist in the group that you have selected at the time of running of job and not at the time of creation of job. For example, if you had created job on Normal Group of RME, then this job will attempt to take the backup of config of all those device which exist in Normal Group. So if your RME is synchronized with DCR (Common Services), and if you are adding the new device to Common Service, then you need not to add this device again for this schedule job since DCR will send this device to RME and once this device have inventory collected, it will automatically be in the normal group of RME and since we had selected Group selector option, RME will collect the config for this device too.
    However periodic polling and periodic collection is also desinged to acheive the same purpose and known as kind of administrative task for managing the devices in RME.
    Now the question arise what is difference between periodic polling and periodic collection :- Its very simple actually -
    Periodic Polling :- Under Periodic polling, RME will first poll the device and if it find any change in the actual configuration of device with the existing configuration in RME . it will trigger collection of backup config for the device. If it will not find any difference between the actual configuration on the device and the existing configuration in RME, it will not trigger any new sync archive on the device thus save your network resources.
    Periodic Collection :- Under Periodic Collection, it will not do any comparison and always trigger the sync archive on the device. However you will be able to see the new version of device configuration only when any change on the device happen since there is no point of keeping the same config many times in RME database.
    Hope it answer your querries.
    Thanks & Regards

  • LMS 3.2 and RME 4.3.1 telnet with tacacs+ fails

    I've tried to edit TacacsPrompts.ini also with suggestion to enter "," after last space character
    I'm using only TACACS so all prompts are the same. I'm using MOTD also.
    TACACS prompt looks like this example : "TEST username: ,TEST password: " so this looks obvious.
    The issue started to appear after some patching done to RME and CiscoView, but I'm not sure that this is connected anyhow.
    Thanks for all the help

    Hi!
    They gave me the solution like this:
    line vty
    timeout login response 90
    Ofcourse it helped but this it still inproper behavior from LMS side. It sends the username char by char for more than a minute! Guess the scenario with thousands of devices.... It will take ages to telnet to them. And network performance has nothing to do with that - i'm running the LMS on a powerful Sun and the network is mostly gigabit connected.
    Setting timeout login response is a workaround but does not fix the problem.
    Still waiting fot some fix to LMS not for fairly acceptable workarounds.
    This is NOT case with TACACS enabled on a router. The box responds within moment when telneted using commandline or other NMS software. This is a problem with LMS telnet login mechanism and prompt parsing (TacacsPrompts.ini doesn't seem to work at all, I could type there anything and it has no effect on the login proces).
    Besides this SSH to the same box wit TACACS works flawlessly. But then it parses only password prompt not the username - this is sent by ssh.

  • Netconfig jobs stuck on RME 3.5

    Hello fellow netpros,
    We currently have CiscoWorks LMS 2.2 installed and sometimes when a netconfig job is run it just get's stuck in the "Job Started" state for no reason.
    Then I restart the Change Audit deamon under Ciscoworks Admin, run the same job again and it completes succesfully.
    Sometimes jobs also stops and checking the job details the status appears as "Device was not attempted for update".
    The CW Server has:
    -RME 3.5 with IDU 13
    -CM 3.3 with IDU 11
    -DFM 1.2 with IDU 5
    -CiscoView 5.5
    The latest patches are applied
    This case has been on TAC's hands for 2 weeks.
    Also, I would like to know what is the current procedure for applying Microsoft patches to the CiscoWorks server, I mean is it advisable to run Windows Update on the CW server ? Is it recommended by Cisco ?
    I would appreciate if anyone can shed a light on this.
    Regards.

    Does it throw some other error message as well ?

  • LMS 4.2.1 Netconfig job CLI output empty

    Hi,

    Any ideas why there is no output although the job is successful?

    You Seems to be using incorrect module of ciscoworks to do this. You are using NetConfig.
    Netconfig is one of the Configuration Management applications, and it allows you to change the configuration of network devices, provided the configurations are archived. Netconfig automatically updates the archive when it changes the configuration. When you use it it will try to execute the commands to configure on device and would not be interested in collecting the output.
    For show commands you should use the NetShow (Nwtwork Show) module. Network show (NetShow) commands represent a set of read-only commands. These are primarily, show commands that you can run on devices that are managed in LMS.
    You can specify the commands that you want to group together and then run these commands on one or many devices. The output is displayed in a browser window.
    For more details see the Using NetShow Commands section of Monitoring and Troubleshooting with Cisco Prime LAN Managmement Solution 4.2 guide.

  • Cisco LMS netconfig job not saving running config to startup

    Hi,
    I'm running LMS3.2 and RME 4.3.1. I deployed a netconfig job to our network which consisted of approximately 800 devices.
    The report said that the job completed successfully however some of the devices didn't save thier running config to startup. Has anyone experienced this before?
    Is it possible to add a command or issue another netconfig job just to save the running config, so I can identify if the job fails on some devices? Using the tick box in the netconfig job doesn't seem to alert you if its not successful.
    Thanks,

    I have seen in the past where someone is running a netconfig job with the cmd to "wr mem" as a line in the netconfig job. 
    Sven is correct, there is an option; radio button/check box to save the running config to startup after the job is completed.
    if your job is strictly meant to "wr mem/write the config" then run a show command in config mode (non-enable) mode and select the option to save running config after job is completed.

  • LMS 4.1 Common Services and RME Question

    Hello,
    we are using Cisco LMS 4.1 and we going to deploy Cisco Security Manager 4.2 as well. Can CSM and LMS share RME and Common Services?
    thanks in advanced
    alex

    No that is not foreseen, so not supported. Use 2 servers.
    What can be done is having the DCR's in sync by having a common service as master and the other as slave.
    Cheers,

    Thanks

    Sorry for delay, I was on holiday.
    It is a change audit report job, scheduled daily. By mistake I hit Stop, and now the job is in status stopped. I thought I will find a Start, but I can't find it.

  • Unable to Select Devices in LMS RME Netconfig

    Hi,
    I am trying to apply netconfig to some devices through RME , however i can see the devices but not able to select them 
    the checkbox is disabled
    any suggestions

    These devices are probably put to 'unmanaged' or 'suspended' state.
    See "device management state"

  • Deciphering NetConfig job failure

    Have a job that simply runs "write memory". It recently started failing on a couple of rtrs:

    Was rtr1 running out of VTY lines at the time of the job execution?
    Was rtr2 really not responding on SSH?

    Do you mean IOS on rtr1 could be throwing up an unexpected prompt that NetConfig didn't know know how to respond to?
    At this point, I suspect rtr1's "write mem" took so long that LMS mistook it as a timed out session. Should I simply bump up the timeout under RME - Admin - Config Mgmt - Archive Mgmt - Fetch Settings, or would that not impact NetConfig jobs at all?
    Are there process debugs that could be turned on in order to capture the full interactions between NetConfig and the devices in a more readable output, or would I be better off getting a sniffer trace for both rtr1 and rtr2?

  • Ciscoworks lms3.1 -- netconfig job problems

    Hi,
    LMS 3.1,when i do a netconfig job for more than >5 devices, in the job tab the status is always showing as running. But when i do it for 2 or 3 devices as a batch it comes as successfull. Nevertheless the configurations are updated when more than 5 devices selected. We tried to reboot the server also. All the services are running in the common services>server>admin>processes tab.
    Pls find enclosed the netconfigclient & jrm log files. We started the jobs around Tue Nov 17 07:00:03 hrs

    Are you using SSH to connect to your devices?  If so, then you are most likely seeing a known bug where SSH sessions can lock up either deploying a config, or fetching a config.  All of the known SSH bugs are fixed in LMS 3.2, but patches for RME 4.2 are available from TAC.  The bugs are CSCsv95235, CSCsx24218, and CSCsw88378.

  • Ciscoworks 4.0, netconfig job, add instance problem

    I'm trying to make an adhoc job to some devices in ciscoworks.  I select netconfig jobs, select the devices I want to do a change to, and then select add instance, I get a new browser window saying loading and nothing more happens.
    I cannot create the config lines I want to perform to my switches.  I just want to change the vtp domain name to the switches, but cannot do this due to the blank browser window saying loading.
    Anyone know anything about this?

    I just updated my LMS 4.0 device packages, and I cannot reproduce.  I then noticed your SharedNetconfigIOS.zip package is larger than mine.  I suspect it's corrupt.  Go to Admin > System > Software Center > Device Update, check the boxes next to Common Services and Inventory Config And Image Management and download and install all available packages.  If none are available, you will need to contact TAC to get an up-to-date package repository to correct this problem.  You can click the "Open Service Request" link in the Actions panel of this thread to capture everything we've done here if you have to open a service request.
