Problem restoring LMS 2.6 data to LMS 4.0

Hello,
I'm trying to migrate from LMS 2.6 on a Windows 2003 server to LMS 4.0 on Windows 2008 R2.
Two things I'll note here which might help future people attempting to use the LMS 4.0 backup/restore scripts as detailed in the migration document:
1) Make sure nobody has installed cygwin on the server before you run the backup scripts. If they have, remove it and the reg keys.
2) On the target server make sure to run the restore script CMD session using runas or disable UAC on Windows 2008 or the restore scripts will fail
My next problem I can't get past. I've been running the restore since yesterday morning and it still hasn't finished. It hasn't moved from 40% complete migrating the IPM data but in the last 24 hours it has eaten up 6Gb more RAM.

Should I just wait? Is this something that might take days if I've got a lot of IPM data or is it broken? I don't really care about keeping IPM data so could I do something to complete the data migration for everything else? Any advice appreciated.
regards,
Aaron

The restore can take a long time if you have a lot of data. The problem is the database needs to be completely unloaded and reloaded to convert from ASA 9 to ASA 10. However, if you do not care about IPM data, and you still have LMS 2.6 running, you can take a new LMS backup not using the wrapper.pl script (this will keep IPM from being backed up).

Problem Restoring to Correct Backup Date

I want to restore my iphone to my most recent backup. However, when I right click my iphone in itunes and choose restore to backup it says a different backup date (Feb 14th 2012 12;15 am) than what my summary page says (Feb 13th 10:15pm). The last backup I did was Feb 13th at 10:15 and thats want I want to restore to.
Note: Even if I try to restore to the Feb 14th it says, cannot restore because backup did not complete.

Im experiencing the same issue. Was having some problems syncing music to iPhone 4 so, backed up data, and restored software.
Now, the backup I made (30 mins prior to restoring) restores but incompletely and doesn't have any of my apps or data. Has all standard apps.
For some strage reason, attempting to restore a backup creates a new backup.

LMS 4.2 data migratiom from LMS3.2 SP1

Hi,
We would like to do data migration.
The lms4.2 is a soft appliance version. The lms3.2 is windows version.
The restore process exits and the log file shows the rme.db file copy is failed.
But the backup contains rmeeng.db file instead of rme.db.
The data migration is possible based on lms 4.2 data migration doc but restore script is bad.
Has anybody got same experience?
How can we do data migration?

Problem with user tracking in cisco prime Lms

i attach my senario pic ,
i use snmp v3 for my switch ,,
discover -- ok
synchronization ---- ok
net config and config edit ----- ok
but my problem is
report / inventory / user tracking / quick report ---------------------------------------- i take this notification for all report : no end hosts found
i install UTU but this program can not found any record too .
please help me

NMS servers access the Bridge-MIB data from devices, to get the MAC/CAM table. Because MAC-address or CAM table is maintained on device/VLAN basis, so query needs to be made per VLAN based.
In snmp v1/v2c SNMP Community String Indexing is used. Where vlan is polled by adding VLAN number after community string after @ sign. Example to see all the mac-address table from VLAN 1, if the community is test123, device would be polled like :
snmpwalk -v2c -c test123@1 10.10.10.1
The syntax is [community string]@[instance number].
For snmp v3 this is not an option, as it cant use SNMP community string indexing. So all the MAC/CAM table needs to made snmp v3 context aware, which exposes BRIDGE-MIB data to SNMP v3.
You must use contexts to get per-VLAN data from the BRIDGE-MIB with SNMPv3.Not all the IOS switches support this. In general, if the device supports the "show snmp context" command, contexts will work. If not, an upgrade is needed. However, some switches (e.g. 2950 series) will never support SNMPv3 contexts. You must use v1/v2c with these switches.
Very simply, you need to add the context to the SNMP group to allow your users to poll the given context. For example, to allow users to poll the BRIDGE-MIB for context vlan-6, you would add something like:
snmp-server group v3group v3 auth context vlan-6 read
You should add all those exact name after context which you see in output of show snmp context.
Also, about UTU, it is just a small utility tool to access the LMS User Tracking DB externally to show the UT data, so unless LMS has UT data in its DB, UTU won't a difference either.

I'm waiting for my new iPhone 5s to be delivered. I lost my iPhone 5 but did have it backed up on my MacBook Pro. I was using iOS6 at the time. Will I have a problem restoring the data to my new iPhone 5s assuming it will come with iOS7?

No, you should not. There are problems trying to go the other way, but updating a newer iOS release from a backup of an older iOS release has always been supported and is the basic means of setting up a new device from a previous one.

Release date of LMS 4.1?

What is the expected release date for LMS 4.1?
-David

Hi David,
New releases of LMS typically have come out around the May / June time frame , but so far I haven't seen anything definitive regarding the date when LMS 4.1 will be released. Do you have an urgent requirement ? I'd suggest you keep watching this forum / re-post you question in say 3 months time.

Migrating DFM data from LMS 3.1 to LMS 4.2.3

Hello, I need to migrate DFM alarm settings data from LMS 3.1 to LMS 4.2.3 and I want to use this method, http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_device_fault_manager/3.1/user/guide/useAAD.html#wp1433848 , to extract the data from 3.1 and then inport it into 4.2.3.
I successfully performed it for IP settings, it was easy since the data format was the same.
But the format differs quite alot for Interface and Port data, here is an example:
export from LMS 3.1
IF-hostname/17 [Gi0/0.524] [10.55.254.3]; INTERFACE:;IF-hostname/17; MANAGED_STATE:;EXPLICITLY_UNMANAGED
export from LMS 4.2.3
INTERFACE:IF-hostname/17 MANAGED_STATE:MANAGED GigabitEthernet0/0.524
It looks like I have convert interface names, sort and delete stuff to make it look the same.
Have anyone done this before and can give me some advice?
BR /Crille

Just want to report back that I found an answer to this, it is enough to import this string:
INTERFACE:IF-hostname/17 MANAGED_STATE:MANAGED (or EXPLICITLY_UNMANAGED).
So what i did was use Notepad++ and regexp to filter out the needed data:
Search for: ^.+(INTERFACE.+$)
Replace with: \1
and then another replace for ";" with nothing.
Then I ended up with:
INTERFACE:IF-hostname/17 MANAGED_STATE:EXPLICITLY_UNMANAGED
which could be imported with the mentioned scripts in my original post.

Migrating data from LMS 3.2 to LMS 4.2

I`m trying to migrate data from LMS 3.2 (windows) to LMS 4.2 (linux) I have run the backup job which contains many directories, I have created a .tar file to be able to ftp to LMS 4.2 but cannot get it to un-tar. Anyone been in this same scenario before?

Share more details on what error do you see. Do you still have the old backup files, without tar? What tar utility are you using?
I can suggest to use the tar utility available within LMS. Go to NMSROOT/bin directory and use:
1. To create tar : tar -cv <filename> <source_files>
2. To untar : tar -xvf <file_name>
Being the same utility it may be good. Anyways, this seems less of an LMS issue. If possible use an WINSCP and copy the entire directory without compressing.

Thunderbird runs very slowly after latest round of 11 updates from Microsoft, restoring computer to earlier date fixes problem.

Thunderbird version 24.4.0
Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1
Microsoft uploaded 11 new updates ( 7 updates for Windows 7 and 4 for Office 2010) on 9 April 2014. After automatically installing updates on my computer Thunderbird runs very slowly, i.e., every time anything is selected, Thunderbird give error "Thunderbird fails to response" which takes about 1 minute to clear. I restored computer to earlier date that did not have these updates and Thunderbird works OK.
Also updates changed default search engine in Firefox 28.0 from Google to Bing ! ! !
Marti Sarigul-Klijn, Ph.D.

Appears that you are right.
McAfee was running a scan continuously. I uninstalled it. Then ran all of the Microsoft updates. Finally I reinstalled McAfee and turned off real time scanning of e-mail.
Thunderbird appears to be working OK now.
Thanks for your help.

How can I restore 3rd party app data from my backup in the cloud

First a brief history. I use the iCloud to backup my iPad 2 and hardly ever synch it to itunes on my computer. I got the new iPad and restored the backup of my iPad 2 onto it. All was fine except that an issue I had on my iPad 2's Safari had transferred over to my new iPad. That's is for another discussion. Anyhow I went to the genius bar and they said to just setup my new iPad as a new device and then manually install everything back on it. Stuff like mail, contacts, etc, would be reloaded from the cloud. So I did and I noticed that one of my 3rd party apps, MadPad, had none of my saved data. Does anyone know of a way to restore 3rd party app data from the iCloud? Is there some sort of utility out there that would do this? I don't want to restore it from my previous iPad 2 backup because it will reintroduce the Safari problem back onto my new iPad.
Thanks!

Assuming that you even have a backup with the data in it, you have no choice but to use a backup in order to restore that data. That is the idea behind backing up to iCloud. If that is the only backup that you have - then that is the one that you have to use.
But if the backup is bad - or had corrupt data - then you will end up with the corrupt data again. You cannot selectively restore app data from a backup. you restore all settings and data - or nothing at all.

I just bought a brand new iPhone 4s from a Three store. When I used the cloud restore to put the data from my old 3gs onto the device, it's prompting me for an Apple ID login with an email address that isn't mine!

I just got a brand new iPhone 4S on a contract from my local Three store. When I used the cloud restore to put the data from my old 3GS onto the device, it's prompting me for an Apple ID login with an email address (hotmail) that isn't mine! My old phone has NEVER had any Apple ID other than mine log into it, and the new one's a sealed box that I've opened and set up from scratch. Can anyone please explain this? I'm worried there's some kind of problem with my iCloud data being mixed with someone else's or something... Since I logged in with my own ID, it's downloaded the data perfectly fine, but I just got the Apple ID prompt again a moment ago with this same hotmail address in it... I'd be very grateful for any explanation!

In iTunes on your computer, select the Purchased section under STORE in the left column. Click on the first track and choose "Get Info" from the "File" menu.
In the "Summary" tab you'll see details of the purchaser of the track. Click Next to go through all your purchased music one by one until you find the ones you need to get rid of.
Unfortunately, there are no smart playlist rules that can filter tracks by the purchaser that I know of.

Using Time Machine to restore external hard drive data

I have been using a Mac Mini running 10.6.8 for years as a media server. I have always been very careful to maintain backups of everything, and the inevitable did happen - the hard drive containing all my media did fail.
To clarify my set up, my Mac Mini internal hard drive is insufficient to store all my media, so I have been using an external 2TB drive to store it. I then set up Time Machine to back up both the Mac Mini and the 2TB external drive to a second 3TB external drive. Now that the 2TB drive with my media has failed, I seem to be having problems restoring all the media from 3TB drive. This is because the Time Capsule interface is designed to display finder windows at various points in time so you can go back to when your missing files existed and restore them. The problem is that I need the entire contents of the dead 2TB drive restored to a new drive, but I can't open a Time Capsule window that shows the contents of the old drive. I have tried opening /Volumes in a finder window, then invoking Time Machine, but my dead hard drive does not show up in the list of volumes. When I open the 3TB drive in a Finder window I can clearly see that it has backups of the 2TB drive, but they are spread out among 83 different snapshots of various dates.
How can I use Time Machine to easily restore the entire contents of the dead 2TB external drive to a new external drive?

Try recovery mode again and see if it will work. Quit iTunes and restart your computer and them try again. Are you using the latest version of iTunes on your computer?

OSX Journaled-Can I use journal to return/restor settings to specified date

OK, so I've got my drive set to journaled mode. How to I make use of this.
Let's say for example, I wake up one morning and I'm told by my iPhoto that it can't find my iPhoto Library(it was there the night before)...Unstead of all this round about investigative work and two hours on the phone with Apple support and dozens of posts and replies in Apple Discussions, not to mention, untold hours and hours and hooouuuurrrrssss of searching my computer, draging...coping...rebuilding...ARRRGGGHHH!!!
Can't I simply "ask" my journaled drive to return/restore itself(settings and data) to it's original condition (based on giving it a specific time and/or date) as it had been the night before...before the evil computer gremlins plied their dasterdly deeds to my iMac while I slept!
Am I being nieve to imagine that the solution to so many and varied problems could actually be that simple...just go back in time?

Can't I simply "ask" my journaled drive to
return/restore itself(settings and data) to it's
original condition
NO.
You are confusing journaling with the future Leopard Time machine's feature.
