LMS 4.0.1 - DFM issue

HI,
I installed the LMS 4.0.1 and I'm facing a problem with DFM. None Fault is showed.
The Fault Discovery Process never finishes, it is always Running, according attached file.
I checked the LMS Process MAnagement and 4 process are as "Transient Terminated". The  process are: CSDiscovery, DCRDevicePoll, FHPurgeTask,UTMajorAcquisition. I started all process but 2 minutes later the process goes to "Transient Terminated".
All Windows Services related with CiscoWorks are UP.
Someone knows this issue?
Thanks for your help.
Luis

Hi duong,
I'm using the ping sweep. not using the "Use DCR as Seed List" as there were more than 5000 devices.
Earliar LMS pick the devices. once the discovery was running for a long time . to stop the same we have restarted
the CSDiscovry process. After this we are facing the issue.

    HI all
    I have a Cisco Works LMS 3.2 with DFM 3.2 on a Server 2008 Service Pack 2, and the email notifications on the DFM are not working, I recived emails from others modules but didnt from DFM, And I checked all the configurations and seems ok for me.
    I have the same CiscoWorks on a Server 2003 and the notifications are working properly.
    Could you help me with this issue
    Thanks for your help

    Hi,
    Have you set the SMTP server under  DFM > Configuration > Other Configurations > SMTP Default Server & set up a Notification Subscription?

  • LMS 4.0 DFM issue

    Hi Experts, Recently I have installed LMS4.0 and we are facing issues with DFM. All devices are in DFM in known state. recently our link from HQ to branch went down and all branch devices were unreachable but we did not receive a sinlge alert from DFM and when I go to DFM to see if alerts are there but I dont see any alerts related to reachability..its only showing interface up/down message....even though i checked the availability report in HUM and uptime report in HUM it does not show there as well that device was not reachable or some downtime....
    attached is the version of applications installed in LMS4.0... Please help me to resolve this issue ?

    MDF isn't something that needs to be configured.  It is an architectural component of LMS.  The most likely reason you cannot create VLANs is that LMS does not know what your read-write community string is.  Discovery only populates DCR with the read-only string.  Go to Inventory > Add/Import/Manage Devices and edit the credentials for your switches.  Add the proper read-write community string, and then you should be able to configure the VLANs.

  • LMS 4: DFM issues

    As suggested by Joseph Clarke, I started a new thread regarding Fault manager issues in our LMS 4 installation.
    The original post: https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/3233282
    The following menus do not open (error messages are shown instead):
    Monitor> Fault Settings> Setup
    Monitor> Threshold Settings> Fault
    Reports> Fault and Event> History

    I just checked the affected menus and it now seems the issues are gone. Could it be that the IPM patch (which fixed SNMP v3 and IPSLA issue) also fixed DFM?

  • LMS 3.1 - DFM Issues

    Hi There,
    I'm having a few problems with my setup, some more important than others, but causing troubles for me all the same (I've listed them in priority)
    1) Right now I have the default Scheduled rediscovery set in DFM to run weekly. That's all well and good, except that when it runs, less than 10 of my 664 devices get put into the "known" state, while the rest - after 6-8 hrs - get thrown into the "questioned" state. When I try to suspend the schedule, I get an error (see attached: rediscovery_error.jpg, and associated Rediscovery.txt). I have a case open with the TAC right now about this, but it has not been resolved. The only fix I have at the moment is to rebuild the DFM DB, then re-add all the devices, and then I have to unmanage all the interfaces/ips that I'm not using. Seems like an incredible waste of time.
    2) When adding a new device to the DFM (automatically pulled when I add it to the DCR) all the existing devices return to their default managed/unmanaged state. Again, at this point, I have to go back and unmanage all the interfaces/ips, etc... (May be related to above, I'm not sure.)
    3) My jrm.log file is currently sitting at over 650MB (not KB). This equates to roughly 7.3 million lines of text, where 99% of the lines are "Test Exception is : java.sql.SQLException: JZ0S2: Statement object has already been closed." (see attached: jrm.jpg)
    4) I would also like to know if the emails that are sent out by the DFM can be changed - a lot of the information included in them is not relevant to me, and I would like to add the information that is.
    I've also attached the output of pdshow and systeminfo, which seems to be the first thing most people are asked for.
    I'm running LMS 3.1, with an updated DFM (3.1.3) on Windows 2003 Enterprise.
    Please let me know if there is anything else I can provide that may help.

    I should also point out that once you upgrade to LMS 3.2, there is a consolidated patch for DFM to apply at http://tools.cisco.com/support/downloads/go/ImageList.x?relVer=3.2.0&mdfid=282640771&sftType=CiscoWorks+Device+Fault+Manager+Patches&optPlat=Windows&nodecount=2&edesignator=null&modelName=CiscoWorks+Device+Fault+Manager+3.2&treeMdfId=268439477&treeName=Network+Management&modifmdfid=&imname=&hybrid=Y&imst=N&lr=Y which will fix quite a few DFM bugs which are still present in 3.2.  You should download, and apply this patch, and that should give you a much better DFM experience.

  • LMS 4.2.3 Update Issue

    Is anybody else seeing an issue in applying package updates in LMS 4.2.3?
    I am getting an error whether going via the GUI or CLI. The key issue appears to be (acroding to the PSU.log):
    [ Sat May 11 16:41:25 EST 2013 ] ERROR  [PsuPkgResolver : pickUnselectedBasePackages]  : Consistency check failed for base package SharedSwimRtr800(2.2)
    I have the version 2.0.1 of SharedSwimRtr800:

    2.0.1
    SharedSwimRtr800 device package
    ...and I can't seem to find 2.2 anywhere in the downloads section for LMS 4.2.

    The patch is a zip file which includes both the patch and a readme file. Follow the instructions (excerpted below) and the patch will invoke Perl to run a script that copies a bunch of files from one location to another on your server 
    It takes about 10 minutes to complete - wait until you are presented with your command prompt again to know that it's done.
    The readme states, in part:
    Patch Install Instructions:
    Step 1. Download the patch to any temp directory other than NMSROOT, the directory where CiscoWorks is installed.
    Step 2. Untar/Unzip the patch.
    Step 3. Go to the directory to which you Untarred/Unzipped the patch.
    Step 4: Execute the following command:

    On Windows: NMSROOT\bin\perl CSCue69689-1.pl
    On Soft Appliance: NMSROOT/bin/perl CSCue69689-1.pl

  • Acrobat Connect Pro LMS 7.5 server cache issue - displaying old content

    Our Adobe Acrobat Connect Pro server is showing old Captivate-created content from about 4-6 weeks ago.
    I loaded 35+ sets of Captivate 3 (SCORM 1.2, HTML, zipped) content onto our Acrobat Connect Pro LMS about 6 weeks ago.
    I converted all training content from Captivate 3.0.1 to 4.0.1, 4 weeks ago by opening each file in Captivate 4 and following prompts to "Save As" new files with different file names.
    I reloaded all content 4 weeks ago, and again 2 weeks ago.
    I reloaded about half of all content again last week.
    End User Acceptance testing performed this week showed that most of the courses are showing old content, ranging from 2-6 weeks old
    Attempted fixes and workarounds:
    Deleting content entirely and reloaded from scratch - this will not work long term, as we lose usage data each time we reload completely new files.
    Contacted Adobe, provided times to track incidents of the issue.  We reached Tier 2 - who told us it was our problem and that everything appeared to be working fine from their side.
    New workaround - load new content and reattach course to new content.  This presents the same long term issue as the first workaround, but enables us to retain older versions of content in the system, should we need to revert or report on it.
    Gaining server side access is a bit challenging due to the hosting situation we have, so I am looking (ideally) for a solution that can be performed from the Administrator/Author Frontend.  However, I want to learn the real cause of the problem, wherever it might reside, so that it can be properly corrected and avoided in the future.  I am calling this a server cache issue, as it seems the server has somewhere retained unwanted old versions of content, preventing current content from being displayed to end users.  Viewing content as an end user = see old content.  Viewing content from the Content area (Author view) shows the current files, so I know they are on the server and are loading correctly, up to a point.
    I am preparing all content for another round of loading/reloading due to other issues and updates, so republishing and reloading all 35+ files into the LMS is unavoidable at this point.
    This issue is keeping our LMS from launching to several thousand users across the country, so any suggestions or helpful tips are much appreciated.

    I think I have isolated the source of this problem. It's the Pitstop Professional 9 plug in. I un-installed this, and everything opens quicker than greased lightning. I re-installed it and it's back to slowsville.
    Unfortunately Pitstop is essential to my workflow.
    Until recently I did my pre-press on a Mac G5 with Acrobat Pro 7 and Pitstop 6.5. I never had this problem with slow file opening. But it seems that the delays would occur when I used the plug-in with large complex files.. So it would open files as fast as you'd expect from an elderly machine. But starting to use Pitstop would result in a prolonged period of staring at a spinning beachball.
    I wonder is there any way to stop the Pitstop plug-in from initializing until it is used? So the plug-in stays inert until you select the tool from from the menus.

  • Ciscoworks LMS 3.2 SP1 upgrade issue

    Dear all,
    I've recently upgraded our CW 3.2 to 3.2.1 and I'm having a strange issue with HUM application registration with ACS. The privileges options such as 'Super Admin' etc are no longer there! All the privilege options for all of the other LMS components are there, it's just the HUM module! This is having a knock on affect on the server as Common Services DCR is now failing as it reports the System Indentity User configuration as not having all the privileges assigned!
    Anyone else seen this?
    Regards and thanks in advance,
    Col

    So I worked this out. I decided to try and re-register the Ciscoworks applications within ACS. The major issue was that Common Services just refused to talk to the ACS servers. I then remembered that we closed down the tcp port range on the ACS to a manageable number of sockets to firewall. This appartently is the issue, Ciscoworks registration with ACS wont work unless you re-open the port range! Once I did that Ciscoworks re-registered with ACS and I could re-register the applications and HUM was restored back to how it was!

  • Lms 4.2 , Config Archival issue

    Hi
    Please have a look to the below image , what is the reason for this failed Archival and  how to solve this issue
    thanks
    Ibrahim

    The 25 success means LMS is working fine.
    The 277 failed means LMS has problems communicating with these devices.
    Causes can be:
    Bad credentials
    ACL's on the device not permitting LMS ip address to talk to the device.
    protocols (TELNET, SSH, RCP, SCP) not running on the devices.
    firewalls or ACL's on routers not permitting LMS protocols.
    Pick a single device, test the protocols comming from the server to the device, test credentials.
    Cheers,
    Michel

    Hi,
    The unidentified trap message in fault manager is expected when LMS receives a trap that is not in the list of traps that the fault manager is capable of processing.
    Here are the traps that fault manager can process:
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_lan_management_solution/4-2/user/guide/lms_monitor/lms_mnt/TrapFwd.html
    The SNMP traps are only processed by the fault manager and as per the document above the ones that will be identified are pre-defined and the list cannot be modified.
    Clearing an Unidentified Trap
    You can manually clear Unidentified Traps from LMS. To do this:
    Step 1 Select the Unidentified Trap and click Clear.
    A message appears prompting you to confirm the clearing.
    Step 2 Enter your user ID.
    This will be used as a reference to identify who cleared the Unidentified Trap.
    Step 3 Click OK to confirm.
    The Unidentified trap is cleared.
    To retain the trap click Cancel.

  • LMS 4.2 Disk Space issue

    Hi
    I am getting alerts showing that I am out of disk space in the /var directory on my LMS 4.2.1 server.  The offending file seems to be a
    tmp_000000 in /var/adm/CSCOpx/files/.SQLAnywhere/upmdbengine/tmp which is > 50Gb in size.  Can anyone tell me :
    a) why has this file got to this size (and how do I stop it happening again)
    b) Can I safely delete this file.
    Thanks

    The corresponding temporary file is created on database server startup and it will be deleted  on shutdown. The file will hold the query transactions that happened with the corresponding database while the database is running and used when there is not enough cache memory available for executing the queries.
    You can delete this file after stopping LMS daemon.
    Most probably the reason behind this would be UPM is polling more MIB objects than supported on your server, which is doing a lot of transactions on DB.
    As a try to address this issue, you can try to re-initialize the UPM database, which resets the DB to like a fresh installed server. All custom settings like templates and pollers will be removed and UPM/Performace module will be like Factory reset.
    If not details are needed from it, you can re-initialize using following commands :
    Stop the LMS severices : 
    /etc/init.d/dmgt stop
    /opt/CSCOpx/bin/dbRestoreOrig.pl dsn=upm dmprefix=UPM
    Start the service:
    /etc/init.d/dmgt start
    The root cause of this file growing is unknown yet and have not been seen on many installtions. It is very rare. Open a TAC case to get it troubleshooted as LMS Development team would be involved to troubleshoot Database transaction file. But mostly their one of the first try is the re-init of DB.
    -Thanks

  • LMS 4.2.2 DFM still not possible to disable Duplicate IP false positives?

    I found one discussion about Cisco Works 2.6 where it is pointed out that duplicate IP alerts cannot be disabled in LMS.
    Now I have a installation with 2 core switches, one has all VLAN Interfaces up, the second one the same interfaces with SAME IP addresses in shutdown state.
    DFM still recognizes these similar IP configuration on two boxes as duplicate ip situation, but it shouldn't because they are all shutdown.
    Is it possible to disable these false positives in DFM?
    Thanks for any hints!

  • Ciscoworks LMS 4.1 Inventory Collection issue

    We are having an issue with device inventory collection when a device or component in a device is replaced. The inventory collection job appears to be successful but the changes to devices or modules are not retreived. Short of deleting an object and adding back in, are there any configuration changes that can be made or patches that can be applied to LMS to pick up these inventory changes?

    Yes, deleting and re-adding the device works. However, changes have been made to multiple devices in the environment and aside from a bulk delete and re-add there is no guarantee that all changes to all devices will be identified and captured. the side effect will be a loss of historical data.
    Are there any options other that deleting and re-adding that will allow the application to identify the inventory changes, or is this a limitation of the product?
    Are there any items we should check to identify a potential underlying issue?
