Prime Infrastructure 2.0 - Email alert when device is unreachable

Is there a way for PI to send email alerts when a device becomes unreachable? I know there are alerts when an interface goes down, but I can't find how to get prime to alert me ONLY when a device becomes unreachable.
Does anyone know how to do this? I can't believe such a simple feature would be so difficult to configure...

PI also generates an event when it finds unreachable device. An event is an occurrence or detection of some condition in or around the network. An event is a distinct incident that occurs at a specific point in time. Examples of events include:
Port status change
Device reset
Device becomes unreachable by the management station
You can view the list of events using the Event Browser.
Choose Operate > Alarms & Events , then click Events to access the Events Browser page.
Prime Infrastructure discovers events by automatically polling devices and discovering changes; for example, device unreachable.
For more details on Events, please check here :

Prime Infrastructure 2.0 email alerts with hostname?

I have configured email alerts however in the message it shows up with the IP address instead of hostname.
Is there a way to configure the hostname to be added? Custom text or adding the switch differently (added by direct IP search)?
Thanks,
Chris

I see now, this is a poor carry over from NCS. The option that says include "controller" in email does provide the switch hostname. Hopefully by version 3.0 they will have all the wireless naming fixed when it applies to converged.
Thanks Rob!

Email alert when calc scripts are done

Hi - I have Essbase 6.5 and wanted to know how do I setup an email alert when one of my calcs are done running?

Hi CLAU,
we use second method suggested by Glenn.
instead of BLAT we use SendMail
here is the sample batch file which call a maxl script (which can be your calc script) and then emails the log.

No email alerts when post are replied to

I don't get an email alert when I get a reply to a post. Please can anyone tell me why and how to change this.

Other uses have reported the same problem. This occasionally happens and there is nothing you can do. It has been reported to Apple.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1 not send email alert when link down

Hello everyone
I use PI to monitor 1 switch and 1 firewall . When a link up/down on switch , PI immediately sends an email alert .
But when a link up/down on FW , PI not send any email alert . PI knows link up/down on a FW is a critical alarm ( it's show up on "Alarm Browser") , but not send email.
I enable all SNMP trap on FW , i tested that event on SolarWinds and it immediately sends an email alert . So there is no problem about FW config

Causes of Errdisable
This feature was first implemented to handle special collision situations in which the switch detected excessive or late collisions on a port. Excessive collisions occur when a frame is dropped because the switch encounters 16 collisions in a row. Late collisions occur after every device on the wire should have recognized that the wire was in use. Possible causes of these types of errors include:
A cable that is out of specification (either too long, the wrong type, or defective)
A bad network interface card (NIC) card (with physical problems or driver problems)
A port duplex misconfiguration
A port duplex misconfiguration is a common cause of the errors because of failures to negotiate the speed and duplex properly between two directly connected devices (for example, a NIC that connects to a switch). Only half-duplex connections should ever have collisions in a LAN. Because of the carrier sense multiple access (CSMA) nature of Ethernet, collisions are normal for half duplex, as long as the collisions do not exceed a small percentage of traffic.
There are various reasons for the interface to go into errdisable. The reason can be:
Duplex mismatch
Port channel misconfiguration
BPDU guard violation
UniDirectional Link Detection (UDLD) condition
Late-collision detection
Link-flap detection
Security violation
Port Aggregation Protocol (PAgP) flap
Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) guard
DHCP snooping rate-limit
Incorrect GBIC / Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) module or cable
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) inspection
Inline power
Note: Error-disable detection is enabled for all of these reasons by default. In order to disable error-disable detection, use the no errdisable detect cause command. The show errdisable detect command displays the error-disable detection status.

Prime Infrastructure 2.0 Automatically add remove devices

Dears,
I'm basically looking for a dcrcli equivalent to use on prime infrastructure 2.0.
Customer has a central repository of devices that must be monitored. When devices are added or removed there, they automagically appear or disappear in the other systems.
Does something like this exist or is this on the roadmap?
Cheers,
Michel

Hi Scott,
Upto 7.3 config guide it was documented we have to reboot WLC when we configuring SNMP v3 which is wrong. (here is 7.3 config guide link for reference). May be older version (prior to 7.0) had that requirement, not too sure about it
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/7.3/configuration/guide/b_wlc-cg_chapter_0100.html#d16741e4514a1635
From 7.4 onwards config guide does not talk about it all. I deleted the default SNMPv3 user & create a new user in 7.4 & add it to prime without rebooting WLC.
Once you configureed a SNMPv3 user on a WLC, I do no think you can edit/change the password. You have to delete the user & recreate it with modified username/password.Then re-add the WLC to prime
The behaviour you mentioned is with any of later codes of WLC ?

Added all devices via Bulk Import (Inventory>Device Management>Network Devices)
Problem 1:
The Cisco 5500 WLCs are not listed in Inventory>Device Management>Network Devices (see screen shot) but listed under "All Devices"!
The Cisco 4400 WLCs and the 8500 WLCs are listed within their subgroup.
Devices are in "Managed State"
Problem 2: fixed! (Browser issue)
Problem 3:
Unable to run "Wired Detailed Device Inventory" report because I get the error message: Failed to run report: Unable to retrieve data for: Chassis Information (if Chassis Information is selected, if System Information is selected I get the error message with ...retrieve data for:System Information)
All devices do have an "Admin Status = Managed" and the Last Inventory Collections Status = Completed.
Has anyone the same issues or a tip for me?
Another topic, the "User Defined Fileds" are not exported when with running a "Device Export" (Inventory > Device Management > Network Devices). ;-(

Hallo Bastian,
I think you still have browser issue, Using IE is still the best with Prime.
I have exactly same prime 2.2 and installed fixes/software/device packs.
I have no problem I can see all views. I use now IE 11, with Chrome 42.0.2311.90 and firefox 37.01 I have problems too with lots of views. You have not tell what browser + version you have.
Since you have same prime 2.2 as me. I have other problems, can you check yours?
Can you see a functional CLI template page at Configuration > Templates > Features & Technologies:

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1 to setup Discovered Devices in Dashboard Detail auto refresh in 3 minutes

Hi all:
I found out that the discovered devices (after successful scanning) in the main Dashboard Detail cannot or take very long time to auto-refreshing the status change.
May I know is there any way by Command Line at the "Root" (I am using an OVA version) or by setting inside the Prime Infrastructure with GUI method to do scheduled Refreshing on the Dashboard Detail?
Thanks!

Prime Infrastructure 2.1 - Out Of Sync Devices

Hi all,
We are running a Cisco Prime Infrastructure Appliance (Version 2.1) to mange/monitor/configure our wired network infrastructure. We have been able to successfully add all of the network infrastructure devices to Prime and have had relative success in image deployment, reporting etc.
However, my query is in relation to the Configuration Archives. Currently Prime is indicating that 90% of our devices are 'Out of Sync'. I know that this means that there are discrepancies between the startup and running configs. I have compared the startup and running configs on some of the affected devices and the only differences I can see were in relation to the snmp-server contact XXXX entry and the self-signed certificate entry.
Can anyone tell me how I can go about troubleshooting this or how to bring the device configurations back into sync.
Many thanks,
John P

Hi John,
If you navigate to Operate > Configuration Archives it will display a list of all your devices that are listed as out of sync. From here you can sort to the devices that are listed as Out of sync, select the ones that are listed as such and schedule an overwrite. There is also an option to archive immediately after it overwrites as well. It may take a bit for it to update through this page, but navigating to individual devices through device work center and clicking on the configuration archive tab, will yield that the out of sync (startup/running mismatch) message will switch to no.
Regards,
Brandon

WRVS4400N - Logging and Email Alerts when I use a VPN client - Firmware bug?

Hi folks -
I've got a problem with my WRVS4400N that has been dogging me for a long time now, and I'm finally fed up with the email alerts.
My wife has a VPN client for her work, on her laptop. It is nothing fancy, normal IPSec VPN, details on it I can get if needed, but it's just VPN.
My WRVS4400N is running 1.1.03 firmware, latest on the site. I have all VPN pass-throughs enabled. VPN connectivity for the wife works great, no problems that I'm aware of for her functionally.
The problem is, that I have logging turned on with email alerts. When my wife uses her VPN connection, I get flooded with alerts from the router with all sorts of goobly goo information. It's almost like there is a bug in the router firmware that is parsing information incorrectly.
Log levels are set to 0,1,2,3. Email alerts enabled. DoS threshold is 50, Log Queue is 100, Log Time is 60. SMTP information for my mail server populated of course, and Local Log enabled.
Below is a sample of the email body that gets sent. My wife has been using her VPN connection for about 3 hours tonight, and already I've been flooded with over 1000 emails.
Here's some body content:

Does anyone have any ideas? This seems like a code bug to me, but how do I go about reporting to Linksys?
Of course, I can turn off email alerts, but then that defeats the purpose of the router being able to tell me when something is awry.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,

SharePoint 2010 Workflow: Email alert when item is due to expire

Hi Guys,
I have a library which contains a number of customer records. In this library I have a custom date column called End Date which is used to hold a date when the record is due to expire. I would like to create a solution which would send an email alert to someone
when the record is 30days away from expiring a sort of warning, and another email once the expiry date had been lapsed and the record had expired. Can you please advise how best to create this solution, I should imagine that this would be easily achieved in
designer however, I've really not got much experience with using designer 2010.
If someone could help me out with what code to use, or some useful how to's it would be much appreciated.
Many thanks

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.2 Email frequency (alert reminders)

Hi,
We have deployed a Cisco PI 2.2 and are able to receive emails when alerts are generated in the network, but emails are ony sent once. Is there any way to set the email frequency for alerts? In the case an alert hasn't been cleared in a certain period, to have the PI send another alert notification.
Thanks.
