Using CVP on Cisco Prime Assurance 10.5

Hello guys,
I'm trying to add CVP 8.5 to be monitored by Cisco Prime Collab. Assurance 10.5, and after added the IP and SNMP RO, it shows that the SNMP credentials does not match.
Is everyone else getting this issue on this new version?
Thanks in advance

I have two instances of CVP -- one in Production and another in TEST. The Production one I have had working with CUOM via SNMP for a while. In testing Prime I was setting up the TEST environment and found I couldn't add the SNMP string to any devices as non were listed in OAMP, but I was able to copy the SNMPD file (it actually is SNMPD.conf but Windows assumes that it is of type "Speed Dial" and hides the extension -- even if you have show extensions turned on in Windows Explorer) from my working Production environment to TEST and it worked.
However, I now am stuck at failing the HTTP authentication -- is this the CVP OAMP user? Local Windows account?
Thanks,
Mark

Or it has any OVI template like CUCM or how do I install and integrate it?
Please help me to proceed in this case..
Rgds,
Rebecca
God bless u all!!

Hi Rebecca,
Well....at least you're getting there
I believe you'd need glabaladmin for the UI as admin is for cli;
User Accounts
For Prime Collaboration, you will be required to specify various passwords at different instances. This section is designed to help you specify appropriate passwords in several scenarios that demand your login credentials (applicable for both converged application and standalone Prime Collaboration Assurance and Prime Collaboration Provisioning applications).
•globaladmin- A superuser who can access both Prime Collaboration Assurance and Prime Collaboration Provisioning UIs.
•globaladmin password- Specify this password when you configure your virtual appliance for either standalone or converged applications. See Configuring the Prime Collaboration Assurance Virtual Appliance and Configuring the Prime Collaboration Provisioning Virtual Appliance. You are also required to specify this password when you log in to the UI (see Password Rules for root User and globaladmin).
In Prime Collaboration Provisioning, this password is synched with the password of postgres admin (to perform backup and restore operations). The password is then updated in the database and in the /opt/cupm/sep/dfc.properties file. You must log in as a root user to access the dfc.properties file.
Note If you plan to install both Prime Collaboration Assurance and Prime Collaboration Provisioning, ensure that you specify the same password for both applications during installation.
•CLI Admin Username—The default username is admin. However, you can specify the username of your choice.
•CLI Admin Password—Specify a password for the SSH CLI admin. This password is used to log in to the CLI to check the application status and perform backup and restore (see Password Rules for CLI admin).
The CLI is supported only through SSH; Telnet is not supported. You can log in through SSH using port 26 for Assurance and port 22 for Provisioning.
•Root user—A superuser who has all privileges in Linux shell.
•Root password—Specify a password for the root user (see Password Rules for root User and globaladmin).
Password Rules for root User and globaladmin
•Must contain at least one of each: lowercase letter, uppercase letter, number, and special characters.
•No character in the password may be repeated more than three times consecutively.
•Cannot contain non-ASCII characters, %, +, and &.
•Cannot be cisco or ocsic or any variant obtained by changing the capitalization of letters therein, or by substituting 1,!, or | for i, substituting 0 for o, or substituting $ for s.
•Cannot be same as the username, and cannot be the username reversed.
•Must contain from 8 to 80 characters.
•Cannot end with these characters: *, ; or #.
Caution We recommend that you write down the root password, as it cannot be retrieved.
Note•To change the root password, you must log in as root user and execute the "passwd" command, which prompts you for a new password.
•If you are planning to integrate Provisioning and Assurance servers, make sure that you adhere to the Assurance-specific globaladmin password rules while setting up / creating the password for globaladmin in Provisioning.
Password Rules for CLI admin
•Must contain atleast six characters.
•Must contain at least one of each: lowercase letter, uppercase letter, and number.
•Must not be the same as the username itself.
Installation Prompts
We recommend that you find out the values beforehand for the following parameters, as you will be required to enter them at the console prompts when you configure the virtual appliance:
•IP address—The IP address of the virtual appliance. If you wish to change the IP address, see
•IP default netmask—The default subnet mask for the IP address
•IP default gateway—The IP address of the default gateway
•Default DNS domain—The default domain name
•Primary nameserver—The primary name server. You may add a name server. To configure several name servers, enter y.
•Primary NTP server[time.nist.gov]—The primary NTP server. To enter a secondary NTP server, enter y at the next prompt.
Note Prime Collaboration 9.5 supports three NTP servers. To configure a tertiary NTP server, enter y at the next prompt, after you specify a secondary NTP server.
•Timezone—The timestamp that is displayed on the UI is the server time. By default, the configured timezone is UTC. For a list of supported timezones, see Supported Timezones for Prime Collaboration. You must use the same timezone for Prime Collaboration Assurance and Prime Collaboration Provisioning servers in converged mode.
•Username—The CLI admin username. The default is admin. However, you can specify the username of your choice.
•Password—The CLI admin password. This password is used to log in to the CLI to check the application status and perform backup and restore.
•Root user—A superuser who has all privileges in Linux shell.
•Root password—Specify a password for the root user.
•globaladmin—A superuser of the application who has all privileges, and whose account used for initial login to the application (UI).
•globaladmin password—Specify a password for the globaladmin.
•Network deployment mode-Select the network deployment mode you need. Specify E for Enterprise Deployment or M for Managed Service Provider Deployment (E/M).

Cisco Prime Assurance

New install with a Cisco Prime Assurance 9.0. I am able to log into the CLI with SSH but the web page using https://IPADDRESS does not give me access - message "This page cannot be displayed". I've restarted the VM and services are running. I installed the provisioning server without issue.

Using ACS for Cisco Prime authentication

I'd like to use our Tacacs server running ACS to be the authentication method for user accounts in Prime, but don't even know where to start with this..
Any pointers?

The configuration on the Prime Infrastructure side is minimal: define the authentication server Prime is to use and select a mode for Prime Infrastructure to use with it.
Administration > AAA > TACACS+ Servers > add tacacs server.
Administration > AAA > AAA Mode Settings > tacacs+ and enable fallback to local.
The bulk of the configuration is on the authentication server side, particularly indefining groups, services and authorization tasks. This is covered in the "Performing Administrative Tasks" chapter of the Prime Infrastructure Configuration Guide, starting with the topic "Configuring ACS 5.x"
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/prime_infrastructure/1.3/configuration/guide/admin.html#wp1595935
"Configuring ACS 4.x"
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/prime_infrastructure/1.3/configuration/guide/admin.html#wp1625896
https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-17909
In case it doesn't work, please get the logs from the ACS reports and monirtoring for tacacs authentication and error message while accessing cisco prime.

Can we Monitor third party Windows servers through Cisco Prime

Hi Team,
We are using Cisco Prime assurance and are currently monitoring Cisco UCCE Components through it.
Meanwhile we have few third party windows servers , which we would like to monitor it through Cisco Prime , just to maintain a single monitoring tool.
If yes, please share the steps or link.Also highlight the limitations in that.
Regards,
krishna

Seems Cisco Prime Assurance Manager is now obsolete and end of life already.
It is replaced by Cisco Prime Infrastructure. CPI supports third party/vendor devices to some minimum extent with limited management details collected via SNMP Templates.
-Thanks

Cisco Prime LMS 4.1 - Do access points use up a node count license?

Hi Everyone,
I wish to purchase Cisco Prime LMS 4.1, particularly Cisco part # R-LMS-4.1-500-K9 which support 500 Cisco nodes.
We have about 360 Cisco switches/routers/ASA/FWs/WLCs so the 500 nodes license would seem to suffice for now & for future growth.
We also have about 200 lightweight APs that are managed & monitored by our WLC/WCS/Navigator environment.
According to the device support documentation for LMS, it supports and I assume will auto-discover these APs.
Does that mean these APs will use up node licenses on LMS even though management of the APs is done by WLC/WCS? If so is there an easy way to suppress discovery of APs by LMS so we don’t have to purchase extra node licenses for LMS? Or, does LMS offer additional support features for wireless APs not already offered by WLC/WCS/Navigator?
Just trying to understand how many network node licenses for LMS I have to purchase.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Ian.

Thanks but I just heard back from my Cisco SE and he assures me that an AP will NOT use up a license.
I've asked him to verify his answer for me.
Is your answer based on real world expereince (the best there is)? That is, are you running Prime LMS 4.1 and does it indeed use up a license for each light-weight AP it discovers & manages?
Thanks for mentioning options 1-3 but I do not wish to employ any of them. I don't mind buying the additional licenses for APs ... I just need to know if I have to or not.
Ian.

Cisco Prime Collaboration Assurance Standard

Hi All,
We have recently deployed Cisco Prime Collaboration Assurance Standard Server. The issue that I am facing is that after some time the server collapses and logs me out, even though I can connect via the cli.
The version of prime we are using is : 10.5.1.53684.
I am attaching some logs that I got from the cli mostly related to apache.
Has someone faced this issue?
Thanks
Hassan

Cisco Prime Infra 2.1 Standard Install using OVA File HD Requirements

   Hi guys,
       I wanna install the Cisco Prime Infra Standard 2.1 using the OVA File but I haven't 900 HD Space continuous in Storage.
   Two questions
       01) The Virtual Machine allocate this space (900 HD) during the install or allocate dynamically as needed ?
       02) There is a option to install the Standard Version using less HD space ?
      Thanks
      My Best Regards
      Andre Gustavo Lomonaco

Initially we installed medium when Prime 2.0 came out, however about 3 months lately we needed to upgrade to standard/pro. Upgrading the CPU/Core was seamless
Install a smaller OVA with enough cpu/cores for the standard and just add disk space later on

Its not a recommended practice but there are work around...

Is Cisco Prime required to use Cisco MSE?

I recently purchased a Cisco MSE 3355 with locator licenses. I have 2- Cisco ISE's and 2 - WLC 5508s.
Is it required to use Cisco Prime in order to see the location services that the MSE is providing?
If so, what type of license do I need?

Prime Infrastructure is required and you need to purchase enough lifecycle license to have a license for every AP you have. Details of the license options are below:
