Nexus Envirometal & Cisco Prime LMS4.2.5 ISSUE

Hello
I have 3 cisco nexus 5596 and lms 4.2.5. I need to check the temperature of these nexus devices through LMS but i cannot. For chech the temperature i have to enter the nexus and run the coresponding command sh env. The version of nexus OS is the
software
BIOS:      version 3.6.0
loader:    version N/A
kickstart: version 5.2(1)N1(1b)
system:    version 5.2(1)N1(1b)
power-seq: Module 1: version v5.0
uC:        version v1.0.0.2
SFP uC:    Module 1: v1.1.0.0
BIOS compile time:       05/09/2012
kickstart image file is: bootflash:///n5000-uk9-kickstart.5.2.1.N1.1b.bin
kickstart compile time: 9/17/2012 11:00:00 [09/17/2012 21:38:53]
system image file is:    bootflash:///n5000-uk9.5.2.1.N1.1b.bin
system compile time:     9/17/2012 11:00:00 [09/17/2012 23:38:22]
How can i take the results of the sh env command through one poller (Enviromental Template) ?

Cisco support was able to provide me with a one time download link for DCNM 6.3(2) and the error still persists there. So maybe this isn't an issue of using old software but something else.
In the device name field I'm putting the IP of our network switch. Is that what we're supposed to use or is that expecting something else?
Thanks

Cisco Prime Infrastructure MESH LINK ISSUE

Hi,
a Customer of us has a trouble with cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2.0.12 and AP mesh link.
There is an huge database ( i suppose the issue can be here ) and when we display some map ( each floor has about 6 RAP and 24 MAP ) we cannot see the MESH information and link draw.
The only way to dipley them is to disable "refresh from network": this way I'm able to show these link..... until a click before.
What i noticied when all was working fine, after i click to some floor:
1) the software started to show the map with normal color and no mesh info displayed ( just ap and coverage cloud )
2) after few time ( less than 1 second ) the map was becoming a little bit lighter and the mesh info was merged to the map
We are missini the second step
Anyone had the same issue ?
best regards
Luigi
PS: I opened a case with WCS version 6.0 ( same issue ) but, after some months, no risult. The last version working fine was WCS 5.2

Just to add some more informations:
- disabling "refreshj from network" ( building properties ) the link and mesh info are showed
- while I'm on a floor, after some refresh, i loose the mesh link draw and, if i click on an AP, i loose also mesh info in the popup. It' s like, after some refresh, the AP are no more recognized as Mesh ( !?!? )

Cisco prime infrastructure 1.1 issue

hi：
i purchase a R-PI-1.1-K9 with R-PI-1.1-100-K9,but now i find the cisco website can't download Prime infrastructure 1.1 anywhare,only 1.2 and above version exist.but the device base licences(R-PI-1.1-100-K9) is based RI version 1.1.how do we resolve this issue.somebody tell me that R-PI-1.1-100-K9 can use in prime infrastructure 1.2 ,anyone can help me and tell me how to use it and give me the step by step guide,thanks very well.

A 1.1 license file should work with PI 1.2. See the note at the bottom of Table 3 here.
Hopefully your product was ordered with Software ApplicationSupport with Upgrade (SASU) option. That will further entitle you to upgrade to PI 1.3 and, soon, to PI 2.0. Each release ins incrementally more functional and many bug fixes are incorporated.

Shutdown port with CiscoView - cisco prime LMS4.2

Buenos dias.
No puedo realizar ninguna actividad con los puertos a traves del cisco view. me sale un error.
Message
Cannot access the required SNMP object due to restricted SNMP view setting.
Ya configuré en el sw cisco la version snmp3.
Good morning.
I can not perform any activity through the ports cisco view. I get an error.
Message
Can not access the required SNMP object due to restricted SNMP view setting.
Since I configured the cisco sw version snmp3.

Your question as a double aspect and sides:
1. Can you retrict access to help-desk users from device side?
2. Can this be retricted from LMS point of view.
Answers:
Possible from both the ways :
1. From device side, you need to configure SNMP view for the only MIB you want access to help-desk and associate it to the community string (snmp v2) or password (snmp v3) they'll use.
For example, as per your last configuration :
snmp-server view Bg123456 iso included
Coinfigure it with only MIB required for this operations:
snmp-server view Bg123456 <mib_name> included
Example :
snmp-server view Bg123456 iso excluded
snmp-server view Bg123456 ifMib included
**ifMIB is needed to do the interface operations, like port shut or no shut etc.
2. From LMS point of view you can configure the user profiles and give them custom authorizations. It is known as user role. A role is a collection of privileges that dictate the type of system access you have. The Manage User Roles workflow allows you to add, edit, copy and delete user-defined roles in LMS.

Flushing / Deleting Devices from Cisco Prime LMS4.1 - How ?

Hello,
Discovery got a little messed up when importing from LMS 3.1
Basically I want to flush all devices from all the different LMS modules.
If I delete all devices from Device Management they seem to stay in Topology Services / Device Discovery / Data Collection etc.. They keeps the old device in their own database.
Is there a way of flushing all devices from all these different modules. I'm going to re-import them with a clean CSV import file.
Cheers
Barry

It is confusing to everybody I think (except perhaps Joe Clarke). Perhaps Joe will jump in with a solution to this last bit.
Starting back when CiscoWorks instituted a DCR (ca. CiscoWorks 2000?) things began to integrate across the components but under the covers there are still separate bits. Alerts (e.g., those from Fault functions or the old DFM, based on the EMC SMARTS product) are notorious for using settings and a repository different from the rest of the suite. I've had good luck using a local hosts file for that component to work properly (i.e., generate fault records with the proper host name vs. the device IP).

E-mail will be suppressed up to 30 minutes for these alarms. Cisco Prime

Hi
I'm trying out the email notification in the cisco prime and encountered this issue.
E-mail will be suppressed up to 30 minutes for these alarms.
This causes the other AP's that I restart to not send an notification, and I cannot find a way to remove this email suppression.
I want all the critical emails to be sent and not get dropped.
Or am I misunderstanding this? I cant find any threshold to change / disable
Cisco prime 2.0 fyi
thanks!

This is still a problem in Prime 2.0. I opened a case asking how to change the email suppression time period from 30 minutes to 4 hours so that alarms tripped overnight that won't be acknowledged wouldn't result in a flooded mailbox, and was told this is not a configurable option. So apparently the only "fix" is to turn off the alarm, or change the category to a lesser one that won't result in an email being sent. I hope in a future release they will decide to make this configurable.

Problem Exporting Backups from Cisco Prime LMS 4.2 deployed as software appliance

Hi,
I'm trying to backup a Cisco Prime LMS4.2 based on soft appliance. I have the backup stored on destination disk://localdisk/backup/, but i can't export it via FTP to external server. When I perfrom the transfer only the folder is stored in the destination path, the files aren't included. I think that i have to compress files on the backup folder as .tar file using linux shell, but i can´t find the backup folder from this shell.
It´s correct my procedure, if not What is the procedure and commands to export a backup to external server via FTP?
Thanks,

Hi Dave,
If your Goal is to upgarde the IOS of the devices via LMS then MANUALLY download the IOS Image from cisco.com
and use the FILE SYSTEM option to add the Image in the Software Repository
Then try to upgrade the IOS and see how it works.
Thanks

Cisco Prime 2.0 - Nexus clients not discover

Dear all,
I've installed a Cisco Prime infrastructure 2.0 and it's working perfectly except for Nexus 7k : I canot see the wired client connected (useful for traking) while it's working fine on many other devices. The devices are managed with an inventoy collection completed (No data vailable in Device Details/ clients / current associated wired clients).
any idea ?
regards,
vincent.

Hi Vincent,
I have this problem too. I found this related information about supporting "clients and Users" for Nexus in PI2.x/LMS4.2.4.:
Cisco Prime LMS 4.2.4 - User Tracking for N5K: https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/12155236/cisco-prime-user-tracking-n5k, User Tracking require the SNMP-BRIDGE-MIB on the target device(s). That was introduced in NX-OS 6.02 on the Nexus 5000 platform.
LMS 42 user tracking: https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/11605281/lms-42-user-tracking.
Nexus 7k and 5K in LMS 3.2.1. “When adding the Nexus devices to DCR, provide the “netadmin SNMP RO credential”. When other SNMP RO credential is provided, user tracking will not collect end host data. The Nexus device should be running NXOS 5.1(1), 5.1(3) or later. 5.1(2) is not supported.
Configure the device to map community with context using the below command: snmp-server context vrf, snmp-server mib community-map context
Please let us know what the progress is of the TAC case. I'm very interested.

Issues with Cisco Prime LMS 4.2.3

Hi,
I'm trailing Cisco Prime LMS 4.2.3 Soft appliance on ESXi before I deploy it into a live environment and am having some issues.
I've upgraded to version 4.2.3 and the box was working fine after the upgrade however on power it up today the Apache service will not start.
If I look at the LMS application I see this for the Apache service.
"Apache Administrator has shut down this server 0 "
I have tried to starting it.
CiscoLMS42/admin# application start Apache
% Application failed to start
CiscoLMS42/admin#
If I run an application operation debug at the same time I get the following output.
CiscoLMS42/admin# 6 [5343]: application:operation cars_install.c[1145] [admin]: Application initialization initiated for appname: Apache, operation: 0

I'm at a complete lose as to where to look next, failing anything else I'll have to rebuild it, but it would be nice to know how to get the Apache up and running again.

Hi Richard,
I see the following:

It looks like the hostname cannot be resolved. Can you try to add a static entry in /etc/hosts for the IP of the server and CiscoLMS42?
Restart the daemon manager and it should work.

Issue with backup NCS via NFS (Cisco Prime NCS 1.2.0)

Hello,
Does someone have issue with backup NCS via externally mounted location (NFS)?
I have Cisco Prime NCS 1.2.0 and tried backup it to external resources, but I have issue with my free space:
NCS/admin# backup ncs repository backup_nfs
% Creating backup with timestamped filename: ncs-130131-0534.tar.gpg
INFO : Cannot configure the backup directory size settings as the free space available is less than the current database size.
You do not have enough disk space available in your repository to complete this backup.
DB size is 25 GB
Available size is 12 GB
Please refer to the command reference guide for NCS and look at the /backup-staging-url/ command reference to setup the backup repository on an externally mounted location
Stage 5 of 7: Building backup file ...
-- complete.
Stage 6 of 7: Encrypting backup file ...
-- complete.
Stage 7 of 7: Transferring backup file ...
-- complete.
I have tried to add additional space and use command backup-staging-url (my configuration: backup-staging-url nfs://server2008:/nfs), but it didn't help me.
NFS share works perfect. I have checked it via NFS repository:
repository backup_nfs
url nfs://server2008:/nfs
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
NCS/admin# show repository backup_nfs
NCS-130130-1135.tar.gpg
NCS-130130-1137.tar.gpg
NCS-130130-1157.tar.gpg
NCS-130130-1158.tar.gpg
test-130130-1210.tar.gz
Everytime when I try create backup I receive error message "You do not have enough disk space available in your repository to complete this backup".
Does someone know how can I backup NCS system?
Thank you

How much space is availabe on that NFS mount point? It looks like to me from the error message that there is only 12 GB....
The backup-staging-url is just for a space used to stage the backup before it is written-----

Cisco Prime NCS 1.3 Licensing issue

Hello,
I am installing Cisco prime NCS x 2 servers. I downloaded the licenses which are ordered allong with the devices as follows.
Product Name                : L-PI12-LF-50-LIC
    Product Description         : L-PI12-LF-50-LIC:Prime Infrastructure 1.2 - Lifecycle - 50 Device Lic PAK
    Product Qty                 : 1
    UDI                        : PID: PRIME-NCS-APL-K9
The issue is, the NCS appliance was not started properly and then I used the CD which came along with the server (NCS 1.3). Now my system is up and running but it is NCS 1.3 and when i upload the licenses, it shows that the UID is not matching with the system. Is this because the licenses are issued for NCS 1.2 and my system runs on 1.3? If so, what do you suggest, do i need to download NCS 1.2, install it, add the license and then upgrade to 1.3?
Thanks for your advise,
Regards
Jay

Cisco Prime Infrastructure patch 2.1.1 - HA issue

Hello,
I have a problem with the Cisco Prime Infrastructure patched to version 2.1.1. I did exactly what Installation Guidelines say:
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/net_mgmt/prime/infrastructure/2-1-1/release/notes/cpi_rn.html
– Install the Prime Infrastructure 2.1.1 patch by using the Administration > Software Updates page on the primary server.
– Restart the primary server.
– Verify that the patch installation is complete. If you find the installation complete, decommission and reinstall the secondary server and add it back to the primary server.
I reinstalled HA server and I'm trying to add it to HA but I get "Failed to authenticate - Primary(xx.xx.xx.xx) and Secondary(xx.xx.xx.xy) PI version does not match"
Can you help me with that? What I'm doing wrong? or maybe this patch is not prepared to work in HA mode?
Regards

Symptom:
The installation instructions of PI 2.1.1 patch in a High Availability environment are not accurate and following these steps will result in the inability to re-pair the Primary and Secondary servers.
Conditions:
If the instructions are followed, then when the user attempts to re-pair the servers, an error will be encountered:
"High Availability Registration Failed - Failed to authenticate - Primary (x.x.x.1) and Secondary (x.x.x.2) PI version does not match".
Instead, the following steps have proved to work correctly:
1. Upload and install patch on primary.
2. Upload and install patch on secondary.
3. Stop NCS services on secondary
4. Stop NCS services on primary
5. Start services on secondary
6. Start services on primary
7. Re-pair HA servers from primary
Workaround:
Workaround 1:
On the secondary, go under root and issue:
# cd /opt/CSCOlumos/bin/
# ./hamode.sh primary
Answer 'yes' when prompted.
Go to admin user and execute
# ncs stop
After the services are stopped:
# ncs start
When the services are back up, login to the secondary GUI as you would login to a primary server
Go under Administration > Software update, upload the patch and install it.
Go to admin user and execute
# ncs stop
After the services are stopped:
# ncs start
When the services are up, go under root and issue:
# cd /opt/CSCOlumos/bin/
# ./hamode.sh secondary
Answer 'yes' when prompted.
Go to admin user and execute
# ncs stop
After the services are stopped:
# ncs start
After the message that services started successfully on the secondary, initiate a new High Availability configuration from the primary. Now the synchronization between the two servers should succeed.
Workaround 2:
Redeploy or reinstall the Primary server, restore the backup which was taken prior to applying the patch, reconfigure the High Availability and continue with the steps described in the Conditions section.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 and Aironet 1250 + VSS issues

Hi,
I am new to the NCS implementations and configurations. I have one very specific case with Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 and autonomnous APs and several issues with Cisco VSS on 6500 switches.
So here is the version from Prime:

Compiled Thu 11-Aug-11 03:23 by prod_rel_team
Well the issue what we have now is that access point has been added but its not recognized by the NCS prime. I have tried all three versions of SNMP but I get the same result. The SNMP configuration is valid since I use the same for my switching infrastructure. When I enter "debug snmp packets" and "terminal monitor" I can see the SNMP communication between Prime and Aironet 1250 which is standalone.
When I switch to Lifecycle theme and go to Operate > Device Monitor Center I see all devices I have added. The Aironet 1250 is reachable but under collection status I get Managed with Warnings. When I hover over with my mouse I get "None available".
I have successfully added my switching infrastructure in total, which is operating perfectly for Catalyst 2960/3650/3750/4500 series but for 6500 under VSS I have some warnings. The device is recognized by the system which is excellent and all is operational. I get the following errors under Collection Status:
feature_sensor
SNMP request timed out
feature_powerSupplyFanStatus-6k
SNMP request timed out
IdentityCapability
The device is unreachable.
feature_flashdevice
SNMP request timed out
sam_ipsla_feature
The device is unreachable.
What can be done to resolve these issues ? I have attached a screenshot of this particular issue. The affected access point is 172.16.165.241.

Hi rajeeshp,
Currently I am not allowed to upgrade it because of internal procedures involved in upgrading a specific piece of software (obtaining permissions from various departments). Is it free to upgrade from 1.2 to 1.3 or there is a specific charge for that.

Cisco nexus 6001 not a supported device on cisco prime infrastructure 2.1?

I have installed Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.2 and Prime Infrastructure still doesn't seem to support the Nexus 6001 platform? Can someone tell me if Cisco Prime Infrastructure will ever support the Cisco Nexus 6001 platform or is there any plans to support it in any future device packs?

The Nexus 6001 isn't currently supported in PI 2.1. There's no workaround except to wait for a device or product update that adds support. Right now I know the 9000 series is on the 2.2 roadmap but I haven't seen any reference to the 6001 and PI.
Interestingly, Prime LMS does support both the 6001 and 6004. Reference.

Cisco Prime 1.4.0.45 in HA issue

Hello experts,
I detected an issue for the Cisco Prime Infrastructure about 1 of our customers.
They have 2 Cisco Prime Infrastructure with v1.4.0.45 code in HA configuration.
The problem they have is they receive an email saying that the primary server has failed and needs to be manually failed over. But the primary server is healthy !
This is not the 1st time they have this issue and each time they need to re-build the HA (remove/create).
Have you ever seen this issue related to this version of Prime ?
Can it be solved with a patch or something else ?
Please find some screenshots joined.
Thanks in advance,
AL

Can you please check that the issue is may be due to DB crash.
