Prime Infrastructure 2.0: Running an inventory sync removes "snmp-server location" in running-config

Hello,
we're running Prime Infrastructure 2.0 (version VA-2.0.0.0.294).
I was scared as I figured out one hour ago that running an inventory sync (Device Work Center) removes the command snmp-server location and adds the command snmp-server host "PI-ip address" "snmp rw community" in the running-config.
Has someone the same behaviour or can reenact this scenario?!
Can someone imagine that this behaviour has something to do with a configuration setting in PI?
I'm perplexed and got gray hair now.
Thank you for your answers or tips.
Bastian

Hello Rob,
I just successfully installed the patch. The snmp-server location is not touched anymore while running a inventory job.
But PI still enters this string in the running-configuration:
snmp-server host "PI-IP address" " our snmp RW community- string"
although there already exists the entry:
snmp-server host "PI-IP address" version 2c "community-string (not the snmp rw-community-string)"
Do you or anyone else has the same behaviour that PI adds automaically himself as snmp trap receiver with the SNMP-RW community?
Regards
Bastian

  • Prime Infrastructure 2.2 snmp-server location

    We have implemented Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.2 in our facility.  We have each switch loaded in with an "snmp-server location" set for the switches for easier identification and quicker troubleshooting.  We would like that location to show in the network topology map as well as in the email alerts it sends if one of those switches goes down.  Is this something I am overlooking, and if so, can someone please explain to me how to make this happen?

    Hi William,
    snmp-server location is synced from the devices & also the info available in various report.
    But, if i'm not wrong you want to customize the e-mail body of notifications sent out from the prime.
    This functionality is no where discussed in PI user guide & i'm afraid not possible as of now.
    Also, there's bug related to snmp-server location even retrieving it from the reports

  • Prime Infrastructure 2.1: Report - Device - Inventory

    Hi there,
    we want to have an inventory report of your device database.
    The infrastructure is a wild mix of Catalyst 6500er, 3560X, 3750X, N7K, N5K, WLC, etc.
    We are using the prime infrastructure 2.1 Report Launch Pad and the API site. The maximum we get of a N7K:
    UDI serial number
    FAN serial number
    The whole Module serials numbers are missing. How do we get this data?
    br,
    chris

    Hi,
    here is an update:
    There are more than one Report you need to start to get data for Device, FAN, Power Supply, Module - look at these reports:
    Report > Report Launch Pad > Device > Inventory
    Report > Report Lauch Pad > Device > Wired Detailed Device Inventory
    Report > Report Lauch Pad > Device > Wired Module Detail > Wired Module Detail Report Details
    SFPs and GBICs cannot be reported til now - there are working on it.

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3 (1.3.0.20) Custom snmp

    After importing custom snmp MIB and deploying it I cannot find where can I see the pulled data?
    Where do I go to create custom report or custom dashlet to show data pulled through custom mib and custom snmp template?
    thx

    Hi Bart
    Take a look on the PI user guide for version 2.0.
    On page A-7 you see how to Add the Generic Dashlet and map it to your custom SNMP template.
    For me it works OK for table display the attributes.
    When I change for Chart display I can not choose the attribute to plot.
    I allways get ifIndex as attribute to plot.
    I am using the RFC1213 mib and the ifTable.

  • Prime Infrastructure 2.1 NCS Physical Appliance as a Syslog Server

    Hi,
    I have a PI 2.1 NCS Physical Appliance and a client want it as a syslog server too, routers and switches have been configured to send the log to PI but I can't see anything in Operate > Alarms & Events; click Syslogs. Anybody knows what could be the issue or if it's necesary enable a check box.
    Thanks.

    Hi ,
    So far PI can only show Severity 0 ,1 and 2 syslogs under Operate > Alarms & Events >syslogs
    If you are not able to see them also then try to restrat the PI services (ncs stop and ncs start ) and check the issue again

    Hi Jeremy,
    SNMP traps are shown in the events and alerts section of PI.
    SNMP config looks fine. Can  you run the SNMP debug (debug snmp packets ) .check the logs and see if the device is actually sending the TRAPS to the PI server.
    Thanks-

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.1

    Hi Team,
     I have a doubt for version PI-1.1.
    PI 1.1 is installed on the VMware i.e. on the virtual platform
    The customer has bought the following:
    R-PI-1.1-K9 ------Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.1
    R-PI-1.1-100-K9-----Prime Infrastructure 1.1 Software - 100 Device Base Lic 
    L-PILMS42-100------------- Prime Infrastructure LMS 4.2 - 100 Device Base Lic
    L-PINCS11-100------------- Prime Infrastructure NCS 1.1 - 100 Device Base Lic
    L-PINCSW11-100---------- Prime Infrastructure NCS WAN 1.1 - 100 Device Base Lic 
    As it is the 1.1 there is no lifecycle and assurance licenses. 
    Currently L-PINCS11-100 is installed on the server.
    How do I install L-PINCSW11-100 and L-PILMS42-100.
    Can this both licenses be installed on the same server or do they need additional server.
    Thanks in advance..

    If you install PI 1.1 you need a base licence. You must have a single base license to run the software. The base license here is R-PI-1.1-K9.
    After this you need a Device license which decides how many devices you can manage on your application. Here Device Base License is R-PI-1.1-100-K9 which is Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.1 Software - 100 Device Base License.
    So to run your Cisco Prime Infra 1.1 you need only these two licenses (more if you want to manage more that 100 device - using add-on license).
    You can check CPI 1.1 License guide here.
    So server 1 = CPI 1.1 :
    R-PI-1.1-K9 ------Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.1
    R-PI-1.1-100-K9-----Prime Infrastructure 1.1 Software - 100 Device Base Lic 
    Other Server's, if you want these applications:
    1 for = NCS Application/software (L-PINCS11-100)
    1 for Ciscoworks LMS application/software (L-PINCSW11-100)
    -Thanks

    I have two wlc 5508 in HA with image version 7.4.110. These two WLC are connected on two 6509 Catalyst Switch VSS system. On the WLC the LAG are enabled for the connection to the VSS. When i am trying to add the WLC to PI 2  once is succsessful. The connection continew working for a wile and after 3 hours or 5 hours or 1 day lost the connection between these two (WLC 5508 & PI.2) . After this trying again to add the WLC to PI.2 with no success . It became unreachable but the ping between the WLC & PI.2 its working fine.
    It realy importand for me to add the WLC to PI.2 becouse it is the eyes for the APs for me.
    Also the image of WLC 7.4.110 is compatible for PI.2 . I check it at cisco matrix files. Cisco also sugest 7.4.110 image for PI.2
    any idea........?

  • Upgrade Cisco Prime LMS 4.0 to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1

    My company has asked me to migrate Prime LMS 4.0 to Prime Infrastructure 2.0 for a client and can not find the guide, the questions are? the migration is possible without an intermediate step? and There is a guide to update LMS 4.0 to PI 2.0 ??
    Thanks in advance.

    Export Data for Prime Infrastructure
    Cisco Prime LAN Management Solution supports data migration to Prime Infrastructure 1.2. This feature enables user to export the Device Credentials Repository (DCR) data from LMS 4.2.x versions to Prime Infrastructure 1.2.

  • LMS 4.1 (Windows) & NCS 1.1 (VM) Upgrade to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2

    Hi All,
    Im getting a bit confused about the whole upgrade migration process for the following config to Cisco Prime Infrastructure:
    LMS - Version 4.1 , 500 devices. Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard SP1
    NCS – version 1.1 , 50 devices  Red Hat Linux ( 64 Bit)  (Installation software - NCS-VA-1.0.1.4-small.ova)
    I want to be able to backup databases and migrate licensing from LMS and NCS to one platform. Does anyone have experience of this and could possible guide me thorugh this process. LMS has SAS and NCS has SAU.
    Help will be very much appreciated!!   

    It's a couple of steps but can be done. You may want to reconsider getting off of LMS since the latest Prime Infrastructure (PI 1.2) does not have full feature compatibility with the latest LMS (4.2.3). Have a look here for the comparison.
    If you still want to do it:
    1. Upgrade your NCS to PI 1.2 (instructions). If you're going with a total of 550 devices on a combined license you should use the medium ova file to get the correct server resource allocation. You will need to get the new license from the TAC or via the licensing portal. I'm not sure if you can get the PI license for your LMS upgrade directly via the portal but you do have the entitlement for LMS 4.2 and PI 1.2 (combined licenses not to exceed the original LMS number) if your SAS is current. You may need to contact the TAC and ask for the licensing team.
    2. Upgrade your LMS to 4.2 and patch it to 4.2.2 (instructions). Once you've done that, there is a simple menu command to export your device credentials to Prime (Admin, System, Export Data to PI in LMS and then Operation, Device Work Center, Bulk Import in PI - instruction on Page 18 here). Do that and then in the new PI installation import the devices.
    Verify everything is working and you can decommission the LMS server.

  • Prime Infrastructure - Automating the change "mac@ - AP name" with CSV file

    Hi,
    We are going to deploy a lot of new LAP. For each site our  customer will give us an excel file with the MAC @ of the AP and the  target name.
    I was wondering if it was possible to automate the  injection of this file "mac <-> ap name" and then apply the  predefined template with P.I ?
    If yes, could you explain how, as I am new to Prime Infrastructure.,The goal is to avoid to rename each AP individually on prime as there is a lot of AP to deploy.
    Many thanks in advance !
    Oliv.

    Hi Oliv:
    In the Classic View of Prime Infrastructure, under Configure > Access Points, there's a menu option for Import AP Config.  This uses a .csv file to match APs by the MAC address and make changes in bulk.  From the online help:
    Sample File Header:
    AP Name,Ethernet MAC,Location,Primary Controller,Secondary Controller,Tertiary Controller
    ap-1, 00:1c:58:74:8c:22, sjc-14-a, controller-4404-1, controller-4404-2, controller-4404-3
    The CSV file can contain following fields. AP Ethernet MAC Address is mandatory, Optional fields are           AP Name, Location, Primary Controller, Secondary Controller and Tertiary Controller.            
    Optional fields can be empty. AP Config Import will  ignore empty optional field values. However, if Primary Controller and  Secondary Controller entries are empty then Unified AP update is not  done
    Ethernet MAC: AP Ethernet MAC Address
    AP Name:AP Name
    Location:AP Location
    Primary Controller:Primary Controller Name
    Secondary Controller:Secondary Controller Name
    Tertiary Controller:Tertiary Controller Name

  • Can Prime Infrastructure 2.0 enable port 8080 for Browser access?

    By the offical document, port 8080 is pre-defintied for the Browser access but it is disabled by default.
    I am finding a way to enable the port, but I cannot find any guide on cisco site.
    Did anyone know how to enable the 8080 port?
    Thanks in advance.
    Louis

    HIi Hoi;
    As per cisco document :  http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/prime/infrastructure/2.0/administrator/guide/config_server_settings.html#wp1082023
    Configuring Server Settings
    The Server Settings page allows you to enable or disable the TFTP, FTP,  HTTP, HTTPS, or Compliance Service. To turn the server settings on or  off:
    Step 1 Choose Administration > System Settings.
    Step 2 From the left sidebar menu, choose Server Setting.
    Step 3 If  you want to modify the FTP and TFTP directories or the HTTP and HTTPS  ports that were established during installation, enter the port number  (or port number and root where required) that you want to modify and  click Enable or Disable.
    The changes are reflected after a restart.
    I am not sure but try to change the port number 8080 in HTTP Forward option and save it, then restart it.
    I think it will work.

  • Does Cisco Prime Infrastructure supports monitoring CPU,Memory, HDD for UCS , VMWare?

    Does Cisco Prime Infrastructure supports monitoring CPU,Memory, HDD for UCS , VMWare?

    Prime Infrastructure/ Assurance is  positioned today more towards managing network elements and network performance,  rather than server infrastructure. We are in the process of adding Datacenter  component support, with more focus on Nexus and UCS- due later this  year.
    Having said that, Prime Infrastructure allows the system user to  add custom SNMP polling templates, which can then be used for polling any SNMP  based values from any SNMP enabled device. These can be used to collect the  information you specified below and the polled information will be available in  dashboards and reports.

  • Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1

    HI All,
    Hopefully a very easy question that i cannot get to the bottom of - VG224
    I am trying to push out an snmp-server location to all my devices in Prime. The devices seem to accept the config but in the menu i cannot select the VG224's as devices to push the config to.
    The VG224's are managed and Prime can back them up ok so it is not connectivity. I have also looked in the supported devices and can see them there also.
    I made a previous mistake and pushed the same location to all the devices on the network. The VG224's seem to have this config! but now i cannot go back to my templetes and push it again
    Any help on where i am going wrong would be fantastic
    Thanks in advance
    Alex

    Hi Alex,
    If you look at the available devices for selection in the CLI template design (Design > Feature Design) there isn't an option to select VG224's.  For my company we have to log into these devices and manually enter changes to the configs.  Image management is all that I have been able to do with these devices at this time.
    Regards,
    Brandon
