Prime Infrastructure 2.2 Released

For those who haven't noticed, Prime Infrastructure (PI) 2.2 was released on 17 December. The Release Notes, Quick Start guide, etc. are all posted on the PI product support page.
I downloaded the 3.2 GB ova and deployed / installed via vCenter into a VMware ESXi 5.5 environment without issue.
The migration path is to backup your supported earlier version to a repository and then restore from that repository onto the new host. I grabbed a fresh backup of our PI 2.1.2 and followed the guide to restore. It took a while (about 1-1/2 hours to restore and then 30 minutes more to start completely - see output below) but the process ran without a hitch. You do need to make sure that the new host meets or exceeds the hardware specs of the old one - i.e. amount of memory, disk and vCPUs.
My initial look at the new system seems to indicate all is well - I see all the expected maps and devices and old configuration archives were pulled over. I have quite a bit of exercising the new feature set to do but initial indications are promising.
It's good to finally see the Topology map.

When is Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 released, and what does 2.0 offer?

We are running Prime Infrastructure 1.3 primarily for wireless management at this point. We have enough licenses to add all our switches, routers, and firewalls, but we're hesitant to do so until 2.0 comes out. While there are some features for backing up and configuring switches and routers, 1.3 still seems pretty limited in regards to non-wireless features. For example, nearly every report in 1.3 is for wireless controllers or AP's, there are no reports I've found relevent for switches and routers. I've read a lot of blogs, cisco posts, and white papers talking about how Cisco Prime Infrastrucure 2.0 will finally consolidate Prime into a truly all-in-one network management suite that can manage the entire Cisco environment. Does anyone know when it's officially being released? Does anyone have an tech sheets on what's new in 2.0, or what its capabilities are? I want to better understand what 2.0 has to offer, when it's coming out, how to upgrade, so I can start planning for the upgrade and eventually importing all our network devices to Cisco Prime for centralized management. Any useful information or links would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Christian

PI 2.0 is in Beta mode for testing in closed group already. However it may still take some time to get released on CCO for FCS.
I think it is expected to be released between aug-sep. BU has also started working on CPI 2.1, which you can see test uploads on CCO.
For what does it have for customers?
> As Cisco have a vision of one network Management software for both wired and wireless infrastructure, which started getting real partially with Cisco PI.
As WCS got evolved to NCS and eventually to Cisco Prime Infrastructure, but it doesnt yet have full Management capability for wired infra., which is there with LMS.
With CPI 2.x Cisco plans to blend entire LMS and WCS features together.
-Thanks

Prime Infrastructure 2.2 release date

Hi
I would like to know the release date of Prime Infrastructure 2.2.
Its mentioned that it's needed to get lightweight 1700 series AP to Prime
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/compatibility/matrix/compatibility-matrix.html#31079

Middle of the year... Or so:)
v7.4.121.0 is a good stable code. If you need to support the 3700's or need features, then v7.6 is your only choice.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 release date

What is the release date for Cisco Prime Infrastructure ? What are the improvement from 1.2 to 2.0 ?
thanks
Morgan

It's currently due out 31 August 2013.
I haven't seen the final release notes but it will incorporate a lot of the features currently in LMS 4.2 for wired infrastructure management that are currently missing in PI 1.x.
I have heard it will not include Topology or template compliance reports and jobs at 2.0 - those features did not make the development cutoff date for 2.0 but they are projected for 2.1.

Prime Infrastructure 2.1 Release

I just noticed that PI 2.1 Release Notes, User Guide etc. were published 14 April 2014.
The Release Notes describe the new features and open/resolved caveats. It looks like the topology feature and a fix to the often-discussed syslog severity levels did not make the cut.
The software download center does not appear to have the update posted just yet (as of 16 April 2014)

The Prime LMS End-of-sales/engineering/support announcements I know of (link) are for 4.0 and 4.1.
LMS 4.2 is still being "sold" (included as part of Prime Infrastructure bundles) for the very reason that PI does not have feature parity with Prime LMS (even - so it seems - as of the upcoming PI 2.1).
When Cisco announces EoX for Prime LMS I would expect it to follow the usual 3 year timeline for cessation of the sales, engineering and support activities.

Hi,
Does anyone know when PI 2.1 is being released?

Cisco prime infrastructure 1.3 to 2.0

Hello Guys I have an NCS (cisco prime) 1.3 in appliance model (IBM server) and we are wondering if we could upgrade it to 2.0 (with out virtualization)
The 1.3 covers the 2.0 requirements.
The reason for the upgrade is that we are hitting the cscud26027 Bug.
Regards

check the following link and also you can see to upgrade path from the diagram given below

Ciscoworks LMS 3.0 to Cisco Prime Infrastructure LMS 4.2

In order to complete the upgrade the LMS 3.x runs over a physical server that ends with the upgrade(server its gona be retired), the think is that the Cisco Prime comes with an UCS and its gona run over a VM. The question here is the "Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.1 - Maj Upg from LMS 2.x/3.x" media could be runs as clean install, I mean with no LMS 3.x intalled before? an the "Prime Infrastructure LMS 4.2 - 1.5K Device Maj Upg Lic" could be registered with no license installed of LMS 3.x?

There are a couple of things to distinguish:
1. The product SKU you need to order to migrate from LMS 3 to LMS 4.2.
2. The license file that is installed on that new LMS server.
#1 is based on Cisco agreeing, usually through the partner or reseller you are working with, that you are entitled to order the upgrade SKU (vs. buy a complete new product). The upgrade SKUs are all listed in the ordering guide here.
L-PI12-1.5K-UP (note - NOT the 1.1 product description you noted in the original post) would be the SKU for a major upgrade from LMS 2.x/3.x to the current Prime Infrastructure 1.2 release at the 1500 device license level. That upgrade includes licenses for both PI 1.2 and Prime LMS 4.2. You may choose which to install - most LMS customers stick with LMS for now as PI 1.2 does not yet have full feature parity. Your managed devices should not exceed 1500 combined (in this case) but that combined number is not enforced technically by the product's license daemon.
Once you have purchased the product and have the media you can install it on any host that meets the installation prerequisites as far as OS, memory, disk etc. A clean installation of LMS does not check for or require a previous installation as far as technical checks.
#2 - Once you have installed the new LMS server (and optionally a step near the end of installation, you need to add in the license file (*.lic file). That is obtained through the Cisco licensing portal (or via the TAC if you prefer) using the Product Activation Key (PAK) received with your product.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1 - WS-C2940-8TF-S and WS-C2940-8TT-S supported ?

Hello community,
I've got a question just to play safe.
I'm running a Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1, we still do have a bunch of WS-C2940-8TF-S and WS-C2940-8TT-S with running images 12.1(22)EA12 , 12.1(22)EA13 and 12.1(22)EA14.
I know these switch types already have a End-of-Sale and End-of-Life Announcement for the Cisco Catalyst 2940-8TT-S and 2940-8TF-S Compact Switches ("http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/switches/catalyst-2940-series-switches/end_of_life_notice_c51-510224.html").
The inventory collection status in the device work Center is for these switch types "Collection Failure", the error message is this one:
An unexpected error has occurred:
# Check the device is in supported device list in deployment guide -> not listed in "http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/net_mgmt/prime/infrastructure/2-1/release/notes/cpi_rn.html#pgfId-43885"
# Check there is connectivity between the device and PI -> Checked adnd OK
# Check the device credentials provided are valid -> Checked adnd OK
# Finally if the problem still persists then contact Cisco System's technical assistance center -> not done yet, looks like these switch types are not supported any more in PI 2.1 ?
Can anyone confirm this or answer back because these switch types are supported in her/his PI2.1 installation?
Best regards
Bastian

Prime Infrastructure won't support those legacy models.

Prime Infrastructure importing templates

Hi all,
We have an existing WCS setup (7.0.240.0).
I have built up a Prime Infrastructure server running release 1.3.0.20.
Originally I was going to look at migrating our existing WCS configure but the two stage process (WCS -> NCS -> Prime) looked prone to errors. Dediced to skip it and concentrate and building up from blank slate.
The only exception was the floorplan maps for Wifi, I was able to export these straight from WCS to Prime without any hicups.
I then added our main WLC and assigned the APs to the correct maps.
Sweet!
Now I would like to get the templates going for our WLCs as i have a couple more to deploy. The issue is that I dont want to manually configure templates in Prime. WCS had the ability to import templates from an existing WLC, a goldern WLC config. I cant seem to find any doco indicating this ability. Anyone come across something similar or another way I might acheive?
Cheers
Chris

From the Classic Theme:::
Go to Configure> Controllers, Select the Controller(s), select Discover Templates from Controllers

Prime Infrastructure to manage WLC 5760 with IOS XE 03.03.03

Hi there Is IOS XE 03.03.03 on WLC 5760 to be managed via Prime infrastructure 2.1 or what version do I need? It seems to be not fully supported with 2.1... Thanks and best regards Dominic

Hi Dominic,
The release notes http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/net_mgmt/prime/infrastructure/2-1/release/notes/cpi_rn.html#pgfId-43893 show support of up to 03.03.02
I have got a 3850 WLC running on IOS XE 03.03.03 managed by Prime 2.1
The release might not be up to date. When the release notes for Prime 2.1 came out, the highest supported is 03.02.03 and a few days later got changed to 03.03.02.

Jeen Chew

Running Prime Infrastructure in HA mode but the primary server won't take over from the secondary

We're running Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3 in High Availability mode, or atleast we're supposed to.
At first everything seemed fine. We were using the primary server and the failover worked without a hitch when we tried it.
Then the problems started. I think it was at the same time as we increased the disk-size and therefore had to fail over.
When looking into the primary server using CLI everything seems fine but the service doesn't fail back to it. We've even tried to restart the secondary server in order to force the primary server to take over but it didn't work.
In about 2 weeks we need to upgrade Prime and while doing that we would prefer to have our HA working so that we can continue monitoring our network.

Cost of Prime Infrastructure 1.2 upgrade to 2.0

A customer is willing to buy the following Prime 1.2 configuration:
R-PI12-UP-K9
L-PI12-1.5K-UP
L-PI12-LF-1.5K-LIC
L-PILMS42-1.5K-U
R-PI12-BASE-K9
They want to know if by buying the following SKUs, they will be able to updgrade via the PUT tool to the 2.0 with no additional cost:
CON-SAU-PI12LMSU
CON-SAU-PI1115K
CON-SAU-PI12BASE

You are correct that you used to not have the option of a support contract-based entitlement for major release upgrades of the LMS product. Cisco has changed the support contract offerings with PI 1.2 / LMS 4.2 and later. Please refer to the ordering and licensing guide here which states:
CiscoWorks LMS 2.x/3.x and Cisco Prime LMS 4.0 and 4.1 were offered only with Cisco Software Application Support (SAS). When upgrading to Cisco Prime LMS 4.2 through Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 you can continue with your existing SAS contract for LMS. If you have an LMS 4.x release covered under an SAS contract you are entitled to this and future Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.x releases at no charge. You also have the option of canceling your existing SAS contract on LMS, obtaining credit for the balance, and purchasing a new SASU contract for Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2, which entitles you to free minor and major release upgrades to Cisco Prime Infrastructure.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 - Third Party NetFlow

Hi,
is it possible to collect on the Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 NetFlows from Third Party Devices, like a SonicWALL Firewall?
I mean it is possible to poll SNMP informations from a third party device, so maybe it is also possible to get the NetFlow from this Device?
Best Regards,
Sven K.
Sent from Cisco Technical Support iPad App

Hi Sven,
As per my understanding for 3rd party Only below thing are supported:
The following support level is available with Prime Infrastructure :
• Auto Discovery of a 3rd party Device
• Basic Inventory collection
• Basic lifecycle management of 3rd party device
• Ability to show traps and syslog for 3rd party devices
• Device reachability status polling
• Ability to load new MIBs & to create new monitoring templates
• For both Cisco and any SNMP device
