Prime 2.1 Logs CLI Template Jobs

Hi,
does anybody know by chance under which folder or in which file Prime writes executed CLI Template Jobs to troubleshoot failed jobs?
Thanks

Hi ,
You can find that information ( job failure ) in the below log files::
>>> jobManager.log
>> ifm_jobscheduler.log
Thanks-

Prime Infrastructure 2.1 CLI Template to TFTP Copy File?

I'm trying to run the following command on a range of devices:
copy tftp://10.10.10.10/new-acl.txt running-config
The command is in enable mode and interactive, it prompts for confirmation of the filename.
Here's the CLI template I've cobbled together:
#MODE_ENABLE
#INTERACTIVE
copy tftp://10.10.10.10/new-acl.txt running-config<IQ>Destination filename [running-config]? <R>running-config
#ENDS_INTERACTIVE
#MODE_END_ENABLE
However, it fails with:
Error : Exception while sending interactive commands to device, java.util.regex.PatternSyntaxException:Illegal character range near index 31 'Destination filename [running-config]? ' ^
I've tried escaping the string with single quotes, double quotes and backslashes for the []? characters, but nothing seems to work. Any advice from the community on how to proceed?

Based on what I understood your suggestion to be, I changed the template from:
#MODE_ENABLE
#INTERACTIVE
copy tftp://10.10.10.10/new-acl.txt running-config<IQ>Destination filename [running-config]? <R>running-config
#ENDS_INTERACTIVE
#MODE_END_ENABLE
to:
#MODE_ENABLE
#INTERACTIVE
copy tftp://10.10.10.10/new-acl.txt running-config<R>
#ENDS_INTERACTIVE
#MODE_END_ENABLE
Deploying the new template resulted in the error:
Error : Exception while sending interactive commands to device, Expect timeout: Failed to match expected device output due to Expect timeout current timeout 60000. Current output : Destination filename [running-config ]? Current expects : (<switchname>|<switchname>)$[^$]+\)#\s*\z <switchname>#

CLI Templates in Prime

I'm learning how to create CLI templates and have an easy question.
A few weeks ago a created a very simple template that configured a logging server (Prime). It had two lines:
logging facility syslog
logging xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (IP of my Prime server)
I wasn't sure if I needed to use the command 'configure terminal' or not and left it out. It turns out that Prime is smart enough to enter configure mode before running the commands but it did not write the new configuration and left all the switches with a mismatch between Run and Start.
I'm now writing another simple template and don't know how to put in the write command. Do I just put that after some configure mode commands and trust that Prime is smart enough to exit configure mode before executing 'write' or should I explicitly put an 'exit' before 'write' ?
This?:
no logging event link-status
write
or this?:
no logging event link-status
exit
write

do copy running-config startup-config
produces the error:
copy not allowed in config mode or submode
so instead I used:
do wr

Cli templates prime 2.1

HI
I was wondering. Is it possible to run a CLI template that does the following.
1. Running the CDP neighbor command to find out who the neighbors are.
2. And automaticly entering a description command on the interface with the hostname and IP that it has found with the cdp neighbor command.
Im having a big network where i have description on the trunk ports who they are linked to. With device name and IP.
But im running through my network now trying to get the hostnames a bit better and more aligned.. But everytime i change a hostname i has to follow up on all the trunk ports to make sure the descriptions there are correct as well. Would be really cool if a cli template could do that job for me.
Thanks :)

Not an answer per se but what you're describing reminded me of Prescriptive Topology Manager. It's built into Cumulus Networks' product and based on some open source work.
Ethan Banks also has a nice article on it at his blog.
(And - no, doing what you ask is not a feature that's available as of PI 2.1.)

Prime Infrastructure - CLI Template - SmartPort Macro

I'm hoping that someone can provide an example of a CLI Template for deploying a SmartPort Macro in Prime Infrastructure 2.0. I've tried multiple formats and can't seem to get it to work.
Macro to be configured:
macro auto execute TEST_MACRO {
     blah
     blah
     blahdeeblah
Example 1 Template:
#INTERACTIVE
macro auto execute TEST_MACRO {
<IQ><R>
<IQ><R>blah
<IQ><R>blah
<IQ><R>blahdeeblah
<IQ><R>}
#ENDS_INTERACTIVE
The above example runs successfully, however it does not actually produce a result.
Example 2 Template:
<MLTCMD>macro auto execute TEST_MACRO {
blah
blah
blahdeeblah
}</MLTCMD>
The above example fails with the following result:
Error : Exception while sending interactive commands to device, Expect timeout: Failed to match expected device output due to Expect timeout current timeout 60000. Current output : > >blah >blah >blahdeeblah >} mc-t307-acc06(config)# Current expects : blah blah blahdeeblah \}
I'm sure that all my troubles stem from '>' result that is sent to the CLI after each line of the function is entered, however I can't seem to work around the problem.
I've tried many more combinations without success... Any help would be appreciated.

Instead of
#INTERACTIVE
macro auto execute TEST_MACRO {
<IQ><R>
<IQ><R>blah
<IQ><R>blah
<IQ><R>blahdeeblah
<IQ><R>}
#ENDS_INTERACTIVE
Try
<MLTCMD>
macro auto execute TEST_MACRO {
blah
blah
blahdeeblah
</MLTCMD>
This works for me.

Cisco Prime 2.1 CLI-Template for Switch configuration Backup

Hello everybody,
I am trying to write a CLI Template in cisco Prime to save the running-configuration of our core switch to the FTP server,
I have already configured the FTP username and Password in the core Switch
ip ftp username cisco
ip ftp password cisco123
in Cisco Prime I have created a template as follow:
copy running-config ftp:
$FTP_IP_addrress >> the FTP Server
$name >> the name of file and the date
After deploying this template on the core switch,
I received Error Msg in Prime as follow:
Error : Command returned an error : copy running-config ftp: 172.16.30.30 Run_Config_Core_19_2_2015 ^ % Invalid input detected at '^' marker. QAF-DC-4507-CORE(config)#
I know that the backup files can be fetched directly from Cisco Prime in the Configuration Archives, But also I need to test if we can take a backup directly to the FTP server using Prime.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you Bkennedy for replying,
I changed my template to be as follow:
#MODE_ENABLE
copy running-config ftp:
$Mgmt_IP_addrress
$name
#MODE_END_ENABLE
but still I am receiving Error like :
Error : Exception while sending interactive commands to device, Expect timeout: Failed to match expected device output due to Expect timeout current timeout 60000. Current output : Address or name of remote host []? Current expects : (DC-450.{0,30}|DC-4507-AGG)$[^$]+\)#\s*\z DC-4507-AGG#
I believe that we have to tell the Prime how to send the variables to Switch, because the switch is waiting for the remote host IP address and the destination file name???
DC-4507-AGG#copy running-config ftp:
Address or name of remote host []? X.Y.Z.W
Destination filename [dc-4507-agg-confg]?

Prime infrastructure 2.1.2 cli template "copy tftp://..." error

I tried to copy a new ios image to several 3850 switche via CLI template but it failed.
The template lokks like:
#INTERACTIVE

The error message looks like:
Error : Command returned an error : copy tftp://10.x.x.x/cat3k_caa-universalk9.SPA.03.06.02a.E.152-2a.E2.bin flash: ^ % Invalid input detected at '^' marker. SLT-EGDV4-255-4(config)#
What is wrong here?

Prime 2.1 CLI-Template Copy to FTP

Hello everybody,
I want to write a CLI-Template to save the startup-config to a FTP-Server. So here ist my template:
#MODE_ENABLE
#INTERACTIVE
copy running-config ftp: <IQ>remote host<R>$ftpserver<IQ>filename<R>${IPAddress}.txt
#ENDS_INTERACTIVE
#MODE_END_ENABLE
My problem is: I want a filename, which include the hostname. Something like "switch-01-config.cfg". But I doesn't know the right way to get the hostname from a managed variable.
Finally I want to save configs from many switches to one ftp server I define.
I hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance.
Christian

Not sure if this is possible, as the script may not be able get a unique input for each device to write it to FTP server.
But there is one option, where you can run a script on PI server which can fetch configuration from database for all the devices and dump it into a directory.
You can use this latest configs to be exported to another FTP server at once.
This seem to be one of the viable option on what you're trying to achieve. I can wait for other community members to share their expert suggestions.
-Thanks

Prime InfraStructure 2.2 Configuration Template error

Hi All,
I'm facing Configuration template error . I can add the CLI template then after i press on Deploy i get error message and this is happening with all the CLI templates . ( also Attached the error )
The error message : "
Template Deployment- Prepare and schedule : HA With Virtual IP
There was an error while parsing and rendering the content. (updateLeftTreeOnce is not defined )
The HA With Virtual IP Template Body as below :

We are facing the exact same issue. Here are the version :

We tried restarting the NCS services, but it doesn't help. We have the issue on differents PC and browsers. Users told me they got the issue before but it disappeared by itself. We will open a case about it.

How do I know which commands have been pushed to switch by PI CLI template

We have PI version 1.3. I tried to deploy the built-in CLI template "vlan" just to create a vlan. I run the template and input vlan ID and name. The job is shown as successful in PI but the vlan is not created on the switch. In the transcript part of the job history, it only shows "configlet:response: config t". Please see the attachment for the screen shot. How do I know which commands have been pushed to the switch by the CLI template? How does PI push the CLI template to the switch? via snmp or telnet? I tried to run "debug tacacs authentication" and "debug tacacs accounting" on the switch because the switch is configured for command authentication and command accounting but I don't see any commands in the debug. It looks PI did not push any commands to the switch. Please help me to troubleshoot this.
Thanks.

Device reboot via CLI template in PI1.3

Hi together,
Is there any possibility to force a device (e.g. a switch/router) reload via Prime Infrastructure 1.3?
I tried using a simple reload command via cli template, but it doesn't work for me.
Thanks for your answers.
Regards
Sebastian

Did you get anywhere with this? I want to do something similar, configure just some port, not all ports. Prime seems to work by deploying templates to device groups, but I want it to deploy by device and port groups. Sadly it seems port groups are just monitoring filters only.
There only appears to be 17 DB variables in Prime at the moment and none of them are interface description.
I don't know if you can edit the CLITemplateDbVariablesQuery.properties file to add some more.
I don't understand why the port of port groups isn't available to configuration deployment.

Audit log trimmer timer job

HI
Audit log trimmer timer job
what this job do
I set the sitecollection audit settings to trim the audit data after 7 days
is this job before delete it generate Excel report and save in document library?
adil

The job 'Trims audit trail entries from site collections.'
It runs by defualt every month, which means you need to adjust the schedule so that it runs weekly so that it'll pick up your accelerated audit rules.
This is the job that exports the data to Excel and cleans up the entries from the database.

Audit Log Trimming Timer Job stuck at "pausing" status

Hi,
We have a SharePoint 2010 farm and our Audit table is growing rapidly. I checked our "Audit log Trimming" timer job and it has been stuck at "pausing" status for more than a month. Any advice to resolve this issue would be great.
Thanks,
norasampang

Hi Trevor,
Do you think the reason that the time job is failing is because the audit log table is big and the audit timer jod times out. I saw your reply here at this
post
where you have mentioned "
It may be timing out. Have you executed it manually to see if it runs without errors?
Can you please explain in more detail what you meant by that. I was thinking of trying to trim the Audit log using this script in small batch. Can you please let me know if this script seems right?
$site = Get-SPSite -Identity http://sharepointsite.com
$date = Get-Date
$date = $date.AddDays(-1021)
$site.Audit.DeleteEntries($date)
At first i would like to delete all datas that are older than 1021 days old and eventually get rid of the other logs in smaller chunks. Any advice and suggestion would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
norasampang

Help, How to view the error log of oracle Job

Thank you.

Hello,
Besides some views (with the scheduler) that you can get on the link below:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28310/scheduse002.htm#CHDGIDFD
You may use the LOG parameter with RMAN so as to generate a logfile on the server.
Also from EM DBConsole (starting with 10g) you may have the RMAN Backup Report.
Hope this help.
Best regards,

Suppress cron from logging a cron job

I have a cron job that I'm running once per minute. I don't want to have the /var/log/crond.log get updated 60 times per hour. How can I suppress the logging of the job?
I've tried adding the following to the cron line but they just get logged right along with it!
*/1 * * * * /path/to/script > /dev/null
*/1 * * * * /path/to/script > /dev/null 2>&1

@st - I can change the /etc/conf.d/crond to a lower level (default is CROND_ARGS="-S -l info") but I'm only interested in stopping the activity for a specific job; changing it from info to notice will be a global setting.
* debug - Debug level message
* info - Informational message
* notice - Normal but significant conditions
* warning, warn (depreciated) - Warning conditions
* err, error (depreciated) - Error conditions
* crit - Critical conditions
* alert - Action must be taken immediately
* emerg, panic - System is unusable
