URGENT---cisco prime infrastructure 1.2. change default theme

hello guys,
I wanted to ask you a question.
I have installed in my company the cisco prime infrastructure 1.2.
As you know, the lifecycle theme has enough bugs, but these bugs are overtaken if we use the classic theme.
I have several users working with cisco prime infrastructure 1.2, and i was wondering if it is possible to define classic theme as default for all people.
thnks

I would think if they logged in they can change their own preference. You only can change it from the account you logged in as.

Cisco Prime infrastructure Change severity Switches and hubs - link down alarm

Hi, I want to change the severity of the link down alarm in the Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3, but in the menu Administration -> System Settings -> Severity Configuration i can not find the alarm. Some body knows where is it? o where i can change the severity of that alarm?
Thanks in advanced.

Hi Rollin and Daniel,
the first test i did changing the severity was with a new installation, with no devices added and it worked, when i did it in a Prime infrastructure with devices added it didn´t work, well, for this Prime with devices i upgraded it with the patch for 1.3 version and now it works too, the alarms is ok as the alarm severity, this is the link for the patch:
http://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=284652876&flowid=38562&softwareid=284272933&release=1.3.0&relind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=&reltype=all
i hope this helps,

Change Interface availability threshold from Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0

Dear Community,
I’m working in Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 and I’m having the following problem:
I want to monitor the interfaces availability from all the devices of my network. But only makes sense send an email notification for the most critical interfaces. I don´t want to receive an email notification every time anyone unplugs the network wire.
How can I achieve this?
I already tried to change the interface availability threshold from the Interface Health Threshold Template, but this one isn´t available to configure.
The idea was to change the severity of the alarm so I could distinguish what type of alarm would send email notification.
I also created a Custom SNMP Template that gets the ifOperStatus using the MIB IF-MIB. This also didn’t work because Prime Infrastructure doesn’t allow me to define thresholds to a Custom SNMP Template.
Without threshold, no alarm, without no alarm, no email notification!
Can you help?
Regards,
Daniel CJ

Only on the HA pair which would be the secondary.
High Availability (HA) RTU: If Cisco Prime Infrastructure is deployed in a high availability configuration with one primary and one secondary instance in an HA pair, then an HA RTU is required. You only need to purchase a single set of the regular licenses (for example, Base, Lifecycle, and so on) for the primary instance.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 Alarms (switch port down)

We have a cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 managing switches, routers and AP.
By default, when a port of a switch goes down, the cisco Prime Infrastructre generates a Critical Alarm for that. (this is a problem, because every phone of laptop disconnection will generate a critical alarm for me)
I found out that if we go to Administration --> Alarm Severity --> Link down, I can change the Alarm from Critical to another type of alarm.(ex: warning)
The problem is that I want to keep the Critical Alarm for my Uplinks ports and for some important switch ports, and I would like to make the alarm as warning for the normal user ports.
I know that I can create Port Groupping and add ports to each group and apply monitoring templates on those groups. But This couldn't Help me solving my alarm problem.
So I just need to know how to manage the alarms severity for each group of ports.
Thank you

Hi,
Same problem here.
I am using Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 (evaluation version for 60 days). I want to deploy port monitoring for my trunk ports between switches and some other important ports e.g. servers. Basically I want to get alarms when these ports are down, there are errors on ports and etc.
So in Design>Port Grouping I created User Defined group with important ports. In Deploy>Monitoring Deployment I selected Interface Health (default)>Deploy selected Port Groups and when selected port group I created.
Now the rule shows Deployed: Yes and Status: Active. After that I just pulled out one port which was in monitored group, waited 5min as it is set in Interface Health (default) template, and nothing happened, and worse, alarms started to show up of other ports where regular users are connected (computers was turned off), which I do not want to see at all. I tried redeploy template, I even created my own template but still no desired result.
Any suggestions how to make port monitoring work?

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3, Mail Configuration

Hi,
I have a Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3 and I want to set up the mail. When I test it, I get this error:
Failed to send mail to primary SMTP server. Failed to send mail to secondary SMTP server. Please make sure that you save mail configuration by hitting 'Save' button.
I have the ip address, and the username and password. Do I need to create a new buzon for the prime? because by default the "From" field appears with
[email protected]
Thanks!!

Some extra info that has just come to my attention. At one point we were running (we're actually still running) CiscoWorks with LMS3.2 and Cisco NCS 1.x. I merged these two things together into Cisco Prime Infrastructure (upgraded the licensing to get 450 lifecycle licenses to cover the APs + all of the devices coming from LMS3.2). I followed all of the documented procedures to upgrade the NCS appliance to Prime Infrastructure. But when I type "show application" from the CLI of the NCS appliance (now the Prime Infrastructure appliance) I see this:
HQ-NCS1/admin# show application
NCS Cisco Prime Network Control System
Is that normal? Maybe this is my problem. Should this output list "Cisco Prime Infrastructure" instead of (or in addtion to) Cisco Prime Network Control System? When I login to the GUI it shows "Cisco Prime Infrastructure" and the GUI has changed considerably (menus are different) so I'm assuming that the application upgrades I launched from the CLI to go to Prime Infrastructure worked fine.

Cisco prime infrastructure 2.2

Hello Team,
I did like to know how i can create a baseline template using Cisco prime infrastructure 2.2 in order to compare configuration of devices.
Also I would like to inquire how I can generate a CLI template and view the CLI template before applying/deploying it to a particular device or devices.
Best Regards,
Tioluwani

Having just started with Prime not that long ago, I'm afraid I can't help with your first question. However, for your second question:
Go to Configuration > Templates > Features and Technologies
Along the left menu, expand CLI Templates and click on CLI
This will bring up a new, blank CLI template to the right of the menu
Just fill out the info at the top section, and input your CLI/Velocity code in the bottom section
Once you have the code like you want it, click the "Save as New Template" button at the bottom
A window will pop-up asking where you want to save it within the "My Templates" folder
Once you've selected a location, click the Save button
Your window will automatically refresh to show the newly created custom CLI template - you will now have the option to edit your template as needed, or deploy it as-is to PI devices.
To deploy the template, select the Deploy button along the bottom
A new window will pop up that allows you to prepare and schedule the template. Select the device or devices you wish to deploy to. The devices you have available to deploy to will be based on the Validation Criteria you entered when creating the template.
If you opted to use the awesome variables available to CLI templates, you can either enter those for all selected devices in the Value Assignment section, or you can fill out the variables on a per-device basis. You will skip this section if you did not define any variables. If you did use variables, you must click the Apply button at the bottom of this section after you fill in the variables, or you will receive the following error:Mandatory fields are not entered for some devices or you have not saved your changes. To save the changes, click on Apply.
In the Schedule section, you can select when the template is deployed - "Now" is the default.
Finally, the Job Option section allows you to select how Prime handles a deployment failure, whether you want Prime to save the config to startup after the deployment, and whether you want to initiate a config archive after the deployment.

User Name and Password for Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1

Hi all:
I am stuck at the login page of Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1.
I have tried using the user name root and its password (when log in with root at Vsphere Client) and also the login user name "before" get into the appliance infrastructure, all cannot work.
Anybody knows what is the default username or password or any way to set the username and password for this Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1 website?
Thanks!
tangsuan

Hi Tangsuan,
Following is the documented procedure for password recovery..
In order to modify the GUI root user password, you will need to login to the NCS CLI
as an admin user, and enter the command
"ncs password root password <new password>" (without the quotes)
This should set the web interface root user password :
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/ncs/1.1/configuration/guide/manag.html#wp1268889
If you have lost your CLI password , try the default logging that is ,
CLI user is admin and not root, so please try logging in as admin with
the password that was set during setup. If that does not work , you need
the install disk that came with the appliance to recover that password.
Follow these steps:
Recovering a Lost Admin Password
If you lose or forget the admin password for NCS appliance, follow these steps.
Step 1 Reboot the NCS appliance with the ISO DVD inserted. The Cisco Prime Network Control
System Welcome screen appears:

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 and Cisco ASA

Hello,
We've recently installed trial version of Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0 Express. We hoped that it already supports Cisco ASA 55xx series (especially 5505, we have pretty amount of them). But we had some problems with PI and asa durind the exploitation process.
First, I've added ASA to PI, and Inventory Collection Status is Completed, but I can't see CPU and RAM utilization graphs. Inventory.logs are non-informative.
Also, config backup is success, but when I try to watch the backuped configuration at Configuration Archive PI says "Failed to fetch raw configuration". And so on.
ASA version is 5505, image is 9.1(2).
So, I have a question: is it possible to manage ASAs with PI 2.0?
UPD: I've just tried to upgrade asa to 9.1(4), and behavior of the equipment is quite the same. Seems we shall wait for 9.2 to be released.

Have you downloaded and applied the latest Device Pack updates?
PI enhanced ASA support after the initial 2.0 release and the Device Packs incorporate that change.
The README file for Device Packs explains how to install them. (A bug currently does not allow the direct download in PI so you need to follow the method for installation from local storage after you manually download. Here is a link to the download location.

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 1.3 Web Log Invalid user password

Hi,
I recently installed Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3 per the set up guide. I was able to login into the webinterface.
Then I insert the radius server and reload ncs. Since then I'm not able to login to the web interface. I get the following error message "Invalid Username or Password. Please try again". Even when I set the ncs root user with a new password. One issue could be that i forgot the enable fallback to local.
Is there a way to change the radius config back via cli?
Thanks a lot
Hansruedi

Hi Hansruedi,
Thanks you for your help and your time.
I followed your recomandation until the fourth step.
But after this step, I lost the web page connection.
I check nsc status but all is running :
NMS still stopped. NMS must be running to have an access by web page ?
I restart Prime (by reload command) but nothing changed.
Thanks

NetFlow export is also supported on other Cisco switches when using a NetFlow Feature Card (NFFC) or NFFC II and the Route Switch Module (RSM), or Route Switch Feature Card (RSFC). However, check whether version 5 is supported, as most switches export version 7 by default.
You can check the below steps to diagnose the issue::
To verify that NetFlow is exported from a device to PI, follow the steps below:
1)   Browse to Administration > Data Sources page. Check the value in column ‘Last Active Time’ for the ‘Device Data Sources’ table. If the table is empty or the value does not represent recent time, then
it is possible that the device is not exporting NetFlow or PI Assurance license is not applied / expired.
2)   Login to PI console ( via SSH) as root user and run the command:
                netstat –an | grep 9991 – Output of this should be like : udp        0      0 :::9991         :::*
                Check the firewall settings on PI server using the command: firewall -L
1)   Check the configuration on an IOS / IOS –XE device. Run the commands
a)   sh running-config | inc destination
1)   This should list the IP address of the PI SERVER ( along with other outputs if any)
b)   sh running-config | inc 9991
1)   This should list at least one entry.
c)   If the above are fine, then verify that the flow monitor, flow exporter and the flow records are correctly configured on the device.
Refer to the URLs below to configure NetFlow export.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3 - SNMPv3 can´t get CPU, memory info.

Hi,
I have a Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3 deployment with Catalyst 2960S switches. Switches are running IOS 15.0(2) SE2. All switches have SNMPv2 configured, and all appears to be fine. I'm migrating one switch to SNMPv3, and PI have reachability to the switch, but PI doesn´t receive traps from the switch, and neither poll CPU and memory information (all displays 0.00%).
Somebody have a sample configuration of SNMPv3 with Cisco Prime (Infrastructure or LMS)? I cannot find a Cisco official (or unofficial) document related to this version, usually all mention SNMPv2.
Thank you.
Eduardo

Hi Eduardo:
SNMPv3 is indeed supported for general administration. There's a bug with SWIM using SNMPv3 (CSCud92758), but you should be fine for just monitoring. Have you deleted the switch, waited until Prime Infrastructure told you it was gone, then readded it as SNMPv3 natively? Bug CSCug78869 keeps things from working well when changing SNMP versions.
If you don't have the new Update-1 patch for Prime Infrastructure 1.3.0.20 installed (filename PI_1.3.0.20_Update_1-12.tar.gz) installed, I'd suggest you get it. While it's not going to specifically address this issue, there are a lot of really good fixes in it.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 - web browser freezes when managing rogue APs alarms

Hello all,
has anybody faced a freezing problem when you click in Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 down on alarm bar and then to Rogue AP alarms and then try to add an annotitation or change a rogue alarm to Friendly?
I tried it on different PC, different browsers (Firefox 14.0.1. Chrome ...) and the problem is still there.
Has anybody an idea?
Thanks.
Regards
Karel

I just tried it from my lab VM and had no problems. I use Chrome and the browser does sometimes not refresh for a while but that is just when I start to click around.
Thanks,

Cisco Prime infrastructure 1.2.1.012 -- HA issue

Hi All
I will explain the background before, our customer using Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2.1.012 and do HA. However I got error message wcss1 (in attaced file) from HA configuration. (First I had done HA configuration before and it worked. But I get error message wcss1 after i tested failover on cisco prime). I found bug case CSCud12229 that is same error message. But i still confuse with work around "Workaround:Change the database mode to Read-Write by executing query ?alter database open? or execute the shell script - /opt/CSCOlumos/bin/recover_HADeadLock.sh" anyone understand please help.
And another option I tried to upgrade with version 1.3 also but it have a bug no CSCud80157. It is the problem with HA registration fial so, i would like to ask you all that if i need to do HA on Cisco Prime infrastructure which version i should to install ? coz I saw 1.2 or 1.3 also have a bug with HA
Thanks
V

Hi rajeeshp,
Currently I am not allowed to upgrade it because of internal procedures involved in upgrading a specific piece of software (obtaining permissions from various departments). Is it free to upgrade from 1.2 to 1.3 or there is a specific charge for that.

WCS and LMS to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3 Upgrade

Hello,
Our customer is currently having WCS for 500 devices and LMS 3.2 for 1500 devices. We are planning to upgrade to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3.
I want to check is the upgrade procedure that we have planned is ok or we have missed something.
Phase 1: WCS to CPI 1.3 upgrade
1. Check that WCS is at 7.0.230.0 version
2. Export WCS database
3. Install NCS 1.1.1.24 software
4. Contact cisco to obtain trial license for NCS software (L-WCS-NCS1-M-K9 license).
5. Migrate WCS license and import it in NCS software
6. Migrate WCS data to NCS software using ncs migrate command
7. Patch NCS software
8. Inline upgrade to CPI 1.3 software
9. Install proper licenses on CPI 1.3 (WCS and LMS device count)
My concern in this first phase is should I use NCS large image since our Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.3 software should manage 2000 devices at the end.
Or is it better not to perform inline upgrade and insted go with exporting data from NCS and then importing them to CPI 1.3 that is going to be installed separately?
Phase 2: LMS 3.2 to CPI upgrade
1. Export LMS 3.2 database
2. Install LMS 4.2 software
3. Install license to LMS 4.2
4. Restore data from LMS 3.2 to LMS 4.2
5. Direct upgrade from LMS 4.2 to 4.2.2
6. Export the device list with credentials from LMS 4.2.2 and import it as a Bulk Import in CPI 1.3
At the end we will have CPI 1.3 and LMS 4.2.2 software running.
Is it possible to directly upgrade from LMS 4.2 to LMS 4.2.4 and then import data to CPI 1.3 or we need to go with 4.2.2 version?

Jelena

Are this errors going to affect our LMS 4.2 operations?
Then we have upgraded to LMS 4.2.2 and exported data and credentiales for PI import.
On PI 1.3 we have installed WCS 500 devices upgrade license and LMS 1500 upgrade license and now we are having 2000 devices lifecycle license. We have successfully restored WCS data in PI and we have imported LMS devices as bulk import. What is strange is that we have this message in prime regarding licensing:
On LMS 3.2 our customer had saved unlimited number of configuration versioning. After upgrading to LMS 4.2 we can only see last 3 configurations regardless of unlimided number of configurations in previous LMS, so my question is where can we find older configurations in LMS 4.2?
We are planning to turn unlimited versioning on CPI 1.3 now, so our customer will again have feature that they need. Do you have some experiance regarding disk space when all device configurations are stored forever?
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
Jelena
