Location Appliance Help required

Hello,
I have a WCS,WLC and LOC deployed. The integration betwen the WLC and WCS is working perfectly. We didn't put a lot of access points in the deployment because we didn't need acurate location tracking but at least we need some.
The problem is the location appliance is not able to pull any information about the connected clients. No clients shows on the map eventhough the APs report connected clients.
One issue I had is when I try to synchronize the network design with the location appliance I get the below error:
"Element found and will be pulled to WCS".
I appreciate any help with issue as it is quite urgent,
Regards,

Hello Sabhasin,
The message I was receiving above was due to time difference between the location appliance and WLC. Now all systems are using an NTP server and in sych.
As for the location on the map I was able to point the problem to the following:
If you delete the location from the WCS and add it again and then go to the MAP you can see the clients and the rogue stuff within a two minutes time range. When the two minutes pass you no more able to see the last two minutes info from the location.
If you choose the past 5 minutes then you see the information on the map. When 3 more minutes pass you no more see anything for the last 5 minutes data.
If you choose 15 minutes after 10 minutes pass you no more see anything on the map.
If you delete the location appliance and add it again you will be able to see the information again starting with two minutes and again same pattern.
Therefore, the issue is that the info is pulled from the location once you add it and after that nothing is pulled.
I tried synchronizing all the servers and no luck,
I appreciate your response,
Regards,

please explain to me that

Hi Ahmed,
This is the upgrade License SKU for upgrading WCS to WCS Location;
WCS-LOC-UPG-K9
Supports deployment of Cisco WCS on a single server only.
For customers upgrading from their existing Cisco WCS base licenses to equivalent Cisco WCS location licenses running Cisco WCS Software Release 4.1 or later.
Available as Cisco WCS location in increments of 50, 100, or 500 lightweight access points.
Customers currently using this license with Cisco WCS Software Release 4.0 are encouraged to upgrade to Cisco WCS Software Release 4.1, but they are not required to do so.
Order the Correct Cisco WCS SKUs
The process to order Cisco WCS SKUs for WCS-STANDARD-K9, WCS-LOC-UPG-K9, WCS-WLSE-UPG-K9 and WCS-ENT-K9 is presented below. To request help with ordering, please contact Cisco Customer Service: http://www.cisco.com/go/customerservice.
1. Login to the Cisco Ordering Tool.
2. Enter the family SKU of WCS-STANDARD-K9 or WCS-LOC-UPG-K9 or WCS-WLSE-UPG-K9 or WCS-ENT-K9 into "Enter Product" in the Ordering Tool and then press "Enter."
3. The family SKU will display in the ordering area. (Figure 6).
4. Select the "Line" for the family SKU
5. Once you have been taken to the configuration screen, select one of these options from the left side (Figure 7):
For WCS-STANDARD-K9 select one of the sub-SKUs based on the following:
Base: WCS Standard AP Base Option
Location: WCS Standard AP Location Option
For WCS-WLSE-UPG-K9 select one of the sub-SKUs based on the following:

The WCS-CD-K9 contains one software image of Cisco WCS Software Release 4.1 on a CD for Windows and Linux. This CD is shipped by U.S. mail to the purchaser's address. The optional CD is not available for WCS-WLSE-UPG-K9 because this SKU family already ships in CD format.
6. The right side of the screen will display the licenses available (Figure 7). The price for each SKU is displayed in the Ordering Tool.
7. Each license is orderable in a quantity of one (1) for the quantity blocks specified. To add multiple quantities of license blocks, you must go back to the main screen and order additional family SKUs and then select the sub-SKU option and license quantity block required. Repeat this process as needed, until the correct quantity of license blocks for your sub-SKU have been ordered.

WLC, WCS. Location Appliance upgrade order

Folks -
I am about to upgrade my system from 4.1 code to 4.2 code. I am wondering if it's possible to have the WCS and 2700 Location Appliance upgraded to 4.2 d-cubed revs first while still running Concannon WLC code 4.1.185? I am hoping to be able to upgrade WCS/2700 several days before doing all of my controllers.
So in summary, will the following combo work? WCS-4.2.97, 2700-3.1.38.0, WLCs-4.1.185.

Hi Charles,
Yes, this would be the supported method :)
Upgrading to a New Software Release

â¢4.0.66.0
â¢4.0.81.0
â¢4.0.87.0
â¢4.0.96.0
â¢4.0.97.0
â¢4.0.100.0
â¢4.1.83.0
â¢4.1.91.0

Wireless Location Appliance

Hi,
We have a central WCS server. One of our remote offices has purchased the 2710 wireless location appliance and 2 WLC's
Where is the best place to situate the appliance? In the remote site with the WLCs or centrally with WCS?
In addition we have purchased WCS licenses with "location" for all our other AP's. So we would like to utilise their 2710 for other WLAN's at other remote sites. (However, they (the remote site) should be the primary beneficiary). Does this affect the location of the appliance?
Appreciate your help,
Andy

I really don't think it matters where the location appliance is. However, since it is WCS that is sending the information to the Location Appliance for processing, it would probably be more logical for the location appliance to be located with the WCS server. I'm sure from a bandwidth perspective, the best option is to keep the two devices in close proximity.
I can't really think of a situation where you would even need to "prioritize" the benefits of the location appliance. Expect from an installation perspective, focusing more on the remote site before adding the others systems.

Querry on Location Appliance Server

Hi,
I need a help on the below :
Can we upgrade the Location Appliance to any version which is compatible with both WCS servers (4.2.110) and (5.2.100).If yes then which version would we go for location Appliance.
Please let me know.
Regds,
Lalit

The location appliance software is tied to the version of WCS that is running. The release notes for WCS tell which
version you should be running on the WLA.
For 4.2.110:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/wcs/release/notes/WCS4_2MR3.html
recommended code is: 3.1.42.0
For 5.2.110:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/wcs/release/notes/WCS_RN5_2.html
recommended code is: 5.2.91.0 (for both MSE and LA )
You should also keep in mind that location is tied to a range of code on the controllers and should be checked against the release notes
for location:

Location Appliance software on vmware?

Is there any way to run Location Appliance (2710) software on a virtual machine with a trial license for testing and/or educational purposes?

Not unless the location sw is available under special file access from CCO.
Otherwise you will have to get the location appliance (cisco colored ibm server running redhat ES 4+location server)
I haven't toyed with it that much, but it would not be too hard to build a redhat vm and try to pull over the location sw from a location appliance; whether it works or not is another question! But that would require that you purchase the location appliance.

WLAN Controller and Location appliance graceful shutdown?

Does anyone know if there is a supported graceful shutdown method/command for the
4400 series WLAN Controller and 2700 Location Appliances?
This weekend our server room will be undergoing maintenance and will experience a total power outage for a 4 hour period. It is our intent to manually bring all equipment down (hopefully in a graceful manner) and then back up once the maintenance is completed. As a result does anyone know if special precaution is needed to shutdown these 2 appliances, or can we simply bring down these devices hard which is the case with most other Cisco equipment?
Thanks in advance

Hi Mark,
Channel 1, 6, and 11 are just about as non-overlapping as 1, 7, and 13. There's an insignificant amount of overlap, so it's just as plausible of a solution, even in Europe. I honestly don't know why you wouldn't use the extra channels to eliminate the minor overlap - every bit helps.
The "channel blanket" or "virtual cell" WLAN design philosophy is rapidly spreading. Cisco maintains that it's a standards violation and I've heard no talk of them purchasing the not-to-be-named company or of them adopting the same design philosophy. I sincerely hope that they do one of the two soon, however, because it's very good design that's difficult for Cisco to compete against.

Wireless Location Appliance to Nexus

Hi dear,
I have a question about our wireless location appliance 2700, I want to connect it in dual attachment to our two nexus 2000 as all of other servers/appliance, I didn’t find any doc about this, could someone help me for that, if it’s possible or not and if yes how can I do that.?
Thanks in advance

There are two kinds of RFID tags: Active tags, which have a battery or other internal power source, and passive tags, which have no power source and work by reflecting the energy from an RFID scanner (basically). At the energy levels and distances used for WiFi location detection, passive tags will not return a detectable signal.
Take a look at http://www.aeroscout.com/ for more info on WiFi RFID tagging.

Urgent help required: Query regarding LC Variables

Hi All
Sometime earlier I was working on a performance issue raised by a customer. It was shell script that was taking almost 8-9 hrs to complete. During my research I came across a fact that there were some variables which were not set, the LC variables were impacting the sort funnel operations because of which the script was taking a long time to execute.
I asked them to export the following commands, after which the program went on smoothly and finished in a couple of mins:
export LC_COLLATE=en_US.ISO8859-1
export LC_MESSAGES=C
export LC_MONETARY=en_US.ISO8859-1
export LC_MONETARY=en_US.ISO8859-1
export HZ=100
export LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO8859-1
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
Later I did recover that setting the LC_COLLATE to C, is not helping and the program was again taking a lot of time. Few questions that I want to ask are:
1. Can someone please tell me, what each of these variable mean and how these values make a difference.
2. When I exported LC_COLLATE=en_US.ISO8859-1, it worked fine, but when i tried with the defalut value LC_COLLATE=C, then why the program didnt work.
As this issue is still going on, hence I would request All to provide their valuable inputs and let me know as much as possible.
Appreciate your help in this regard.
Thanks
Amit
Hi All
A new development in this regard. The customer has send us a screen shot in which they were trying to export the locale variable using the commands which I have pasted above. I can see in the screen shot that while exporting LC_COLLATE and LC_TYPE, they get a message that ""ksh: export: couldn't set locale correctly"".
Request everyone to please give their inputs as it's a bit urgent.
Thanks for all the help in advance.
Thanks
Amit

I keep getting this error,
A page item on page 'SCHEDULE' at location 34,488 requires rasterization, but is too large to rasterize. Resize it smaller and try again

This basically means that there is an object that has its top left corner at x: 34 y: 488 which is too large to be rasterized, it could be due to any large object that is extreme wide or tall.
Try to check page content and then resize it to verify the behavior. Please let me know how it goes.
