Upgrading WCS from 4.2.62.11 to ?

Hello All,
I recently purchased 6 1142 AP's and added them to my controller, well since these are not LWAP but instead CAPWAP AP's they were not supported by my WLC with code version 4.2 (not the end of the world) so I upgraded the WLC to code 6.0.182 but had to sacrifice managing it from my WCS.
Now I would like to upgrade my WCS to support managing this WLC again and potentially upgrading my remaining WLC's, the thing is I would like to upgrade to the latest WCS version 6.0.132 but need some input as to the ease of upgading, and/or any potential problems that might surface, or if anyone is currently experiencing any issues using this WCS code. Will 6.0 be the best bet or is it sufficient to step up to 5.2? Are you satisfied with this upgrade? How many WLC and AP's are you managing? Is there anything I need to consider that isnt written in the Cisco documentation?
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

You do need WCS 6.0.132.0 to manage your 6.0.182.0 WLC.
To upgrade, its easy, just make a backup of your db, run the installer of 6.0.132.0 and you will be all set. There are not really issues in the upgrade and this should go smooth.
WCS 5.2 will not support your WLC running 6.0
WCS 6.0.132.0 release note:

Upgrading WCS to v7.0

I plan on upgrading WCS from version 6.0.181.0 to 7.0230.0
Is there any reason not to or concerns?

As Steve pointed out you should be fine. Here is a WLC and WCS software matrix if you want that warm and fuzzy ..

I have done the upload of the XML File from our WCS 7.0 installation to get the License File. But on the NCS 1.1 installation the following License is needed first (Cisco Prime Network Control System 1.1 Config Guide):
NoteBefore adding the licenses that are migrated from your WCS installation, apply the L-WCS-NCS1-M-K9 license. The licenses migrated from WCS are generated as “ADD” licenses, and you cannot apply them unless you apply the L-WCS-NCS1-M-K9 license.
L-WCS-NCS1-M-K9 is the Product Number to do the upgrade from WCS 7.0 to NCS 1.0, R-WCS-PI11-M-K9 is the product number to dothe upgrade from WCS 7.0 to NCS/PI 1.1.
If I try to install just the License File I get from Cisco using the XML file from our WCS 7.0 installation, I get the error "Unable to add any license without an NCS (L-NCS-1.0-K9) license.".
But how do a get this license if I ordered R-W-PI12-M-K9 (WCS 7.0 to PI1.2 Upgrade License)? What is the step to get the right License?
Many thanks in advance for any help on that issue.
Best regards,
Hans

Hello Joe,
no. The information in the deployment Guide (the link i proveded before) is wrong.
You still need to follow the upgrade path WCS 7.0 -> NCS 1.1 (here you have to use for example 1.1.1.24, because 1.1.2.12 cannot be upgraded to PI 1.2), then you can upgrade NCS 1.1 to PI 1.2 (if you upgraded the WCS to NCS 1.1.1.24 you need to install a patch ncs_patch-1.1.1.24-upgrade-12.gz, for other 1.1 releases you need a different patch).
The major problem was the licensing. Because with the order of the Upgrade Licenses from WCS 7.0 to PI 1.2 I got "normal licenses", for PI 1.2, a Base License and Lifecycle Licenses (the number of Lifecycle Licenses matches the number from the order).
Because we ordered the WCS 7.0 to PI 1.2 Upgrade Licenses I also ordered the NCS Appliance with the PI 1.2 (before I thought a direct upgrade from WCS 7.0 to PI 1.2 should be possibel, why not, if you can order the licenses with the description Upgrade License WCS 7.0 to PI 1.2 :-)). So I had to downgrade the NCS Appliance to NCS 1.1. After the downgrade the NCS Appliance came up without any licenses. So the major porblem was that I could not use the PI 1.2 licenses (they are not installable on NCS 1.1). So I got a demo/temporary license from Cisco for NCS 1.1 to do just the migration. After the final upgrade to PI 1.2 I installed the base and the lifecycle licenses and now everything is fine.
Best regards,
Hans

Upgrading WCS 7.0.164.0 to 7.0.172.0

I'm trying to upgrade my WCS from 7.0.164.0 to 7.0.172.0 but it keeps throwing me into the manual process because it detects multiple versions. Seems a previous upgrade from 6.0.132 to 7.0.164 did dot remove the 6.0.132 directory or files.
Am I safe to delete the 6.0.132 directory/files and trying again?
Thanks!

Surendra,
Thanks for the reply. By "clean upgrade" I presume you mean "manual upgrade" because the automated upgrade does not work?
Cisco Wireless Control System Configuration
Guide
Manually Upgrading WCS on Windows
Follow these steps to manually upgrade WCS on a Windows server. This type of upgrade is not recommended.
Step 1 If possible, stop all WCS user interfaces to stabilize the database.
Step 2 Back up the WCS database by following the instructions in the "Backing Up the WCS Database (for Windows)" section.
Step 3 Uninstall the WCS application by following the instructions in the "Uninstalling WCS on Windows" section.
Step 4 Install the new version of WCS by following the instructions in the "Installing WCS for Windows" section on page 2-6.
Step 5 Restore the WCS database by following the instructions in the "Restoring the WCS Database (for Windows)" section.
Going from 7.0.164.0 to 7.0.164.3 didn't work either.

Upgrading WCS 7 to Cisco Prime (CPI) 2

Hello,
I have read a few article and posts about upgrading WCS 7 to CPI 1.2 via NCS. However now with Prime 2.0 I was hopping I didn't have to use NCS.
I can't find any migration guides or documents about migrating to 2.0 instead of 1.x.
Can anyone point me in the right direction.

Direct migration from WCS 7.x to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 is NOT possible.
in my work I had this problem.
the only solution was to first install the NCS 1.1, after the patch 1.1.1.24 and then migrate to 2.0
Backup WCS data , upgrade to NCS 1.1 and restore de data...
install patch 1.1.1.24 , only then you can do the upgrade to version 2
CISCO:
"We strongly recommend upgrading your WCS to 7.0.230.0 (for data integrity) or higher before attempting to migrate to NCS.
Users will first need to do an intermediary migration to NCS 1.1.1.24, and then do an inline upgrade (or migration) to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0"

Upgrade WCS

What are the requirements to upgrade the WCS 4.0 to 4.2?

Hi Ricardo,
Here is the related info;
Upgrading to a New Software Release
The Cisco WCS release must be the same or more recent than the controller software release. Upgrade the Cisco WCS first to prevent any unexpected problems.
Note If you upgrade to a Cisco WCS software release later than 4.0.87.0 from a release prior to 4.0.87.0, the users, user groups, tasks, and user passwords do not migrate. Upgrading to 4.0.87.0 before upgrading to a later release migrates the users, user groups, tasks, and user passwords.
Cisco WCS supports database upgrades only from the following official Cisco WCS releases:
â¢4.0.66.0
â¢4.0.81.0
â¢4.0.87.0
â¢4.0.96.0
â¢4.0.97.0
â¢4.1.83.0
â¢4.1.91.0
â¢4.2.62.0
From this good doc;

Hope this helps!

Upgrading WCS to Prime

I'm in the process of upgrading a customer's WCS server to Prime. I know before I can upgrade the WCS server to Prime. I must first upgrade the WCS sever to NCS. My problem is the customer's WCS server is running software version 7.0.230 and I need to upgrade it to 7.0.240 before I can extract the WSC database. My question is, if I upgrade the WCS server from 7.0.230 to 7.0.240 will that cause the customer's Wireless Lan Controllers that are being managed by WLC server to also upgrade?

Maurice, I had a devil of a time upgrading WCS to NCS to Prime.
Long story short, I found the time taken on a very unsuccessful WCS->NCS->Prime migration was 4-8 times longer than the time it took to just install Prime, add the WLCs, and manually rebuild the maps.
YMMV.
PS, Cisco Prime LMS is probably replacing their wired management software (often LMS, Cisco Works+ RME, etc). I believe every best-practice guide I've seen from Cisco says to have one Prime for wireless, and one Prime for wired... even though Prime looks like it could handle both.

Multible installations of WCS detected - when trying to upgrade WCS

Does anyone have an idea of how to work around this problem ?
When i try to upgrade a WCS (from 7.0.172 to 7.0.230) it tells me that i cannot upgrade because it has detected multible installations of WCS.
When i search through "add / remove programs" and "program files" there are no other installations.
How does the WCS installations detect other installations and how do i work around this ?

Thank you for your response.
I have searched all of the drive (this server only has C:\) and i still cannot find anything.
I have started to search through the registration datatbase, but no luck so far.
I have even tried to uninstall the 7.0.172 i was upgrading from.
It even gives the same error message when trying to reinstall 7.0.172.

Sometimes my computer takes too long to connect to new website. I am running a pretty powerful work program at same time, what is the best solution? Upgrading speed from cable network, is it a hard drive issue? do I need to "clean out" the computer?

Many times my computer takes too long to connect to new website. I have wireless internet (time capsule) and I am running a pretty powerful real time financial work program at same time, what is the best solution? Upgrading speed from cable network? is it a hard drive issue? do I only need to "clean out" the computer? Or all of the above...not to computer saavy. It is a Macbook Pro osx 10.6.8 (late 2010).

Almost certainly none of the above! Try each of the following in this order:
Select 'Reset Safari' from the Safari menu.
Close down Safari; move <home>/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db to the trash; restart Safari.
Change the DNS servers in your network settings to use the OpenDNS servers: 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220
Turn off DNS pre-fetching by entering the following command in Terminal and restarting Safari:
defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled -boolean false

Assuming you see the above error message in the alert log file, which was your original post, follow the below steps:
1 Get the 'ospid' value from the error
2. Issue the below command:
SQL> select request_id,ORACLE_PROCESS_ID
2 from fnd_concurrent_requests
3 where request_id = 15598;
3. After obtaining the request_id
4, Query it from the front-end using SYSADMIN responsibility
Hopefully this should get you the respective concurrent report/program.

So,waiting for the help,thanks!

Hi,
if your using oracle db please make sure your db settings and tnsnames.oRA settings
also try you please try below troubleshooting steps:
1) please check latest error message and find the root cause,
presentation catalog log path:
obiee installed Drive:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\diagnostics\logs\OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent\coreapplication_obips1\sawlog0.txt file
also check it nqserver.log file
oracle bi server log path ref:
obiee installed Drive:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\diagnostics\logs\OracleBIServerComponent\coreapplication_obis1\nqserver.log
2)can you try to login RPD,EM and console by using your weblogic a/c then try to login with some other user.
if its not working then try to delete that users from catlog and check it Check OPMN services are running state.
e.x:
C:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\bin>opmnctl startall
opmnctl startall: starting opmn and all managed processes...
C:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\bin>opmnctl status

3) Refresh GUIDs and Restart WebLogic and OPMN Services then try it again...still if your getting same issues then try to
check DB(try to login and confirm) and check it RPD --> physical layer connection pool setting and try to
view physical data.
also paste it your latest error log message (nqserver.log and sawlog01.log message) here

Can I upgrade directly from ColdFusion 9 Enterprise to ColdFusion 11 Enterprise without going to 10 first?

Can I upgrade directly from ColdFusion 9 Enterprise to ColdFusion 11 Enterprise without going to 10 first?
For those who have done this,
1. What quirks did you find that you had to overcome in your installation (I know that everyone's environment is different and produces differest results)?
2. What part of your code broke for which you had to find fixes?
Tips and suggestions for a smooth installation, besides following the installation document.
Thanks!

Create a car (archive file) in CF 9 enterprise which will capture all CF 9 settings like Data sources, Web services etc. Make sure when you are doing this, pop up blocker is disabled.
NOTE : While creating the archive file, give the full name with the absolute path in the package name. For example C:\Test\mypackage.car
Then move this car file into the server where you want to install CF 11. Install CF 11 and then deploy this archive (car) file. All CF 9 settings will be migrated to CF 11 enterprise.
Else, if you want to install CF 11 on the same server where CF 11 is installed, then remove the connector for all the websites which are configured with CF 9, make sure the CF 9 services are running and then run the CF 11 installer and at the end of CF 11 installation, you will get a dialogue box which will ask you to migrate CF 9 settings in CF 11.
Run the Code Analyzer in CF 11 Administrator to check whether any the CF 9 code used in your application is breaking in CF 11 or not

To reimage the application partition, follow these steps:
Step 1 Obtain the application partition file from Software Center on Cisco.com and copy
it to an FTP server.
Step 2 Log in to the switch CLI.
Step 3 Boot the IDSM-2 to the maintenance partition:
cat6k> (enable) reset module_number cf:1
Step 4 Log in to the maintenance partition CLI:
login: guest
Password: cisco
Step 5 Reimage the application partition:
[email protected]# upgrade ftp://user@ftp server IP/directory
path/image file
Step 6 Specify the FTP server password.
After the application partition file has been downloaded, you are asked if you
want to proceed:
Upgrading will wipe out the contents on the hard disk. Do you want to
proceed installing it [y|n]:
Step 7 Type y to continue.
When the application partition file has been installed, you are returned to the
maintenance partition CLI.
Step 8 Exit the maintenance partition CLI and return to the switch CLI.
Step 9 Reboot the IDSM-2 to the application partition:
cat6k> (enable) reset module_number hdd:1
Step 10 When the IDSM-2 has rebooted, check the software version.
Step 11 Log in to the application partition CLI and initialize the IDSM-2.
See Initializing the Sensor, page 10-2, for the procedure.
IF NOT, THEN IS THERE A SHORT CUT FROM 4.1 to 5.1 ?

Just wanted to clarify some things.
As Scott has already confirmed you can re-image using the method described and following Scott's advice on what additional updates to install.
BUT understand that any configuration you have your 4.1 sensor will be lost during that method of re-imaging to 5.1.
Another alternative is to first upgrade from 4.1(5)S225 to 5.0(1), and then to upgrade to 5.1(1).
The upgrade to 5.0(1) will convert the 4.1 configuration into a compatible 5.0 format.
I saw another post you made implying that you had to downgrade back to 4.1(5)S189 to do the 5.0(1) upgrade. This is not the case. You can upgrade directly from your current 4.1(5)S225 to 5.0(1).
You can install the IPS-K9-maj-5.0-1-S149.rpm.pkg file directly on your current 4.1(5)S225 sensor.
When S225 was installed on your 4.1(5) sensor, it also placed in storage the corresponding S225 update for your 5.0 sensor.
So when IPS-K9-maj-5.0-1-S149.rpm.pkg is installed on the sensor it will detect that stored off S225 for 5.0 and install it at the same time.
So once installed you will be immediately at 5.0(1)S225.
Once at 5.0(1)S225, then you can upgrade directly to 5.1(1) using the IPS-K9-min-5.1-1d.pkg upgrade.
(NOTE: 5.1-1d file was created to fix some upgrade bugs, but still installs the same 5.1(1) files as the original 5.1(1) upgrade package).
So you will wind up at 5.1(1)S225.
Now at this point I would recommend installing at least one later signature update (S226 or higher in your case) BEFORE installing the 5.1(1p1) patch.
And AFTER the signature update, then install the 5.1(1p1) Engineering Patch (contact the TAC for this patch).
Because of this specific upgrade path, the best way to avoid some issues is to install at least one signature update before installing the 5.1(1p1) patch. The signature update helps to ensure the sensor is ready for the 5.1(1p1) upgrade. Some of the files needed for the 5.1(1p1) upgrade have been seen to not get carried forward properly in the upgrade from 5.0(1) to 5.1(1), but a signature update corrects those issues.
NOTE: This precaution of installing the signature update BEFORE the 5.1(1p1) is only needed when upgrading from 5.0(1) to 5.1(1). If imaging directly to 5.1(1) using the maintenance partition, then the 5.1(1p1) can be installed before a signature update without an issue.
Once 5.1(1p1) is up and running and monitoring packets and generating alarms, then additional signature updates can be installed afterwards.
