Release Notes for CiscoWorks2000 (AIX)

CSCdm06596

Changing time zones

Changes made to the system time zone from outside of CiscoWorks2000 applications (for example, by changing the time zone in the Windows NT Date/Time control panel, or changing the information in the UNIX /etc/TIMEZONE file) might not be reflected in already running CiscoWorks2000 applications. After changing the system time zone, restart all CiscoWorks2000 applications.

CSCdm10820

Netsys integration displays wrong year beyond 2000

When the Device Configuration application is integrated with the UNIX version of Netsys 4.0 and 4.1, generated Netsys reports display the years 2000 and later as single digit numbers. For example, 2000 is displayed as 0, 2001 is displayed as 1, and so on.

CSCdm21595

Year displayed incorrectly during upgrade to Essentials 2.1

During an upgrade to Essentials 2.1 from Cisco Resource Manager 1.1 or Essentials 2.0, the database upgrade log ($NMSROOT/dbupgrade/CSCOupgradedb.log) and the install log file (rme_in<three digit serial number>.log) display start and end timestamps for the upgrade. The year component of this timestamp is displayed incorrectly. For example, the date 2000/04/01 17:01:30 is displayed as 100/04/01 17:01:30 and the date 1999/04/01 17:01:30 is displayed as 99/04/01 17:01:30. The year component is offset by 1900.

These messages are only informational, and there is no affect on the functionality of the product.

None

Essentials web server not supported

The Essentials web server cannot support software not installed by Essentials.

None

Browsers running on remote X servers

Browsers running on remote X servers are not supported.

None

Printing from a browser does not work reliably

To print an exact copy of an Essentials screen, use the print screen or capture screen function on your machine.

CSCdk17516

Browser only accepts certain cookies

When using Navigator or Internet Explorer, you might encounter a situation in which Essentials returns you to the Login screen when you select an option. If this occurs, configure your browser to accept all cookies.

• Navigator: Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Accept all cookies

• Internet Explorer: View > Internet Options > Advanced, select Always accept cookies.

CSCdk18245

Clearing cache

If you are upgrading your software, it might be necessary for you to clear your browser cache file to display the login frame.

If you are running Navigator, select Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Cache. From the Cache window, select the option to clear your cache memory.

If you are running Internet Explorer, select View > Internet Options > General >
Temporary Internet File > Delete Files.

None

Internet Explorer times out after 5 minutes

Internet Explorer times out after 5 minutes while performing Essentials operations, especially those involving CCO transfers. Refer to article number Q181050 on the Microsoft support Web site for the resolution.

CSCdk16546

Internet Explorer 4.01: Unable to move back in Reachability Dashboard > Device Info > Browse

Due to the Internet Explorer history mechanism, there is no fix for this, as Internet Explorer does not have a way to clear an entire frame set.

To work around this problem, click on a different item under Device Center.

CSCdk31703

Internet Explorer 4.01: Device Configuration task failures

Using Internet Explorer 4.x on a machine with Microsoft J++ installed might cause some
Admin > Device Configuration tasks to fail with a NullPointerException or a InvalidClassException. Installation of Microsoft J++ installs different versions of the Java JDK 1.1 class files which are used by Internet Explorer.

CSCdk33035

Internet Explorer 4.01: Cookie error if multiple Internet Explorer applications point to different Essentials servers

Essentials depends on cookies to transmit permission-related information. If multiple copies of Internet Explorer are launched from the Start menu or an icon on the desktop, Internet Explorer generates incorrect authorization failures when you are correctly logged in.

To work around this problem, start new browser windows with the New option from within the browser.

CSCdj50947

Navigator 4.x: Open frame in new window is inoperative

The Navigator 4.05 right mouse button pop-up menu offers the Open Frame in New Window option. If you select this option while in Essentials, the right frame of the Essentials desktop appears but the navigation tree does not. To avoid this, complete all tasks in Essentials windows.

CSCdj55007

Navigator 4.x: Reachability Dashboard not updating

Navigator 4.05 does not dynamically update the Reachability Dashboard (Tasks > Availability > Reachability Dashboard) when devices change state. To update the information in the Reachability Dashboard, click the Navigator Reload button.

CSCdj57449

Navigator 4.x: Help > Glossary Back button links to contents

If you access the Glossary (Help > Glossary) with Navigator 4.05, clicking the Back button in the help window might take you to the help contents page instead of the beginning of the glossary section. To return to the Glossary, click Glossary.

CSCdk27845

JavaScript error when clicking back from CCO web site

When using the online help file Help > Contents > CCO and Device Management > Case Management > Cisco Web Site link, if you select the Back button, an error message appears.

CSCdk34547

Navigator 4.x: Wrong date displayed for time zones with minute offset

Navigator 4.0x does not display the correct month and day for GMT time zones containing offset minutes.

CSCdk44551

Navigator 4.x: Self Test Collect server information report dated 25 days earlier

Navigator does not always display the date in the correct time zone or with the correct date on the Collect Server Info and Self Test pages.

To work around this problem, use Internet Explorer 4.01.

CSCdk44743

Navigator 4.x: More records request shows internal error in Exception Report window

A server error message is displayed on the lower frame of the Exceptions Summary report in Change Audit > Exceptions Summary, but only under the following conditions:

• When using the Netscape browser to view the reports

• When you select all days of the week to generate the Exceptions Summary Report

The workarounds include:

• Using Internet Explorer to view the Exceptions Summary report

• Selecting an option other than all days of the week to generate the Exceptions Summary Report

If you are using Navigator and you select all days of the week to generate the report, after the server error message is displayed you can resize the report window or the lower frame of the report. This will remove the error message and display the report successfully.

CSCdj64037

Aborting Essentials installation procedure

If you abort the Essentials installation procedure before it completes, not all required components are installed. Restart the Essentials installation procedure from the beginning to complete the installation.

CSCdj55007

Reachability Dashboard Not Updating On Navigator 4.0

Navigator 4.05 does not dynamically update the Reachability Dashboard (Tasks > Availability > Reachability Dashboard) when devices change state. To update the information in the Reachability Dashboard, click the Navigator Reload button.

CSCdk27845

JavaScript Error When Clicking Back from CCO Web Site

When using the online help file Help > Contents > CCO and Device Management > Case Management > Cisco Web Site link, if you select the Back button, an error message appears.

CSCdm31404

tftp transfer fails on AIX 4.3.2

Software Manager and Device Configuration applications using TFTP as the transport system will not function properly on AIX 4.3.2. This problem is due to a bug in the TFTP daemon.

To work around this problem:

Step 1 Change wait to SRC in the tftp entry /etc/inetd.conf.

The tftp entry should look similar to this:

tftp dgram udp6 SRC root /usr/sbin/tftpd tftpd -d /tftpboot.

Step 2 Save the file and exit.

Step 3 Enter ps -ef | grep inetd to display the pid of inetd process.

Step 4 Enter kill -1 <pid of inetd process> to allow the inetd process to re-read the /etc/inetd.conf file.

Step 5 Enter ps -ef | grep tftpd to display two running tftpd daemons.

The output should look similar to this.

root 13716 5166 0 Apr 28 - 0:00 /usr/sbin/tftpd -d /tftpboot

nobody 23466 13716 0 Apr 28 - 1:57 /usr/sbin/tftpd -d /tftpboot

None

Uninstalling Essentials

If you install Essentials and CWSI Campus on the same machine, you cannot uninstall Essentials without first uninstalling CWSI Campus. Refer to Installing Resource Manager Essentials and CWSI Campus on AIX for more information.

None

Uninstall does not remove all Software Management images stored

Software Management stores images that are not removed by the Essentials uninstall procedure. If you want to permanently remove Essentials, you must manually remove these files from /usr/CSCOpx/files/sw_images.

CSCdm19708

CWSI Campus breaks Essentials if installed in same directory

The CWSI Campus installation needs to check the install directory to verify that it is not already occupied by Essentials. Otherwise, if Essentials is installed in the same directory as the Campus, Campus will overwrite files and break Essentials.

To work around this problem, uninstall then reinstall both products using separate directories.

CSCdj64037

Aborting Essentials installation procedure

If you abort the Essentials installation procedure before it completes, not all required components are installed. Restart the Essentials installation procedure from the beginning to complete the installation.

CSCdm20695

Essentials installation and execution fails on AIX with assertion error

When you try to install Essentials 2.0 on AIX 4.2.1, the CSCOxrts package fails with the following error:

assertion failed ptr, file perl.c, line 190

Also, if Essentials is installed and running, the /var/adm/CSCOpx/log/daemons.log file starts filling up with the following error:

assertion failed ptr, file wrapper.c, line 163

The problem stems from a call to popen(). This call opens a named pipe to a command, and returns a pointer to a FILE structure.

To work around this problem, add the following to the root .profile (located in /.profile):

START=/.kshrc export ENV='${START-(_$-=0)+(_=1)-(_$-!=_${-%%*i*})-}'

$ENV expands to .kshrc in interactive mode and to NULL in noninteractive mode.

None

Starting Essentials as Root

If you start Essentials by logging in as root and entering the following command in a C shell

# /etc/rc.dmgtd start,

make sure you do not suspend the root session using the suspend command. If you suspend the root session after manually starting Essentials, other processes such as the Daemon Manager, DIServer, and IcServer are also suspended. To resolve this issue, unsuspend the root session, and the processes restart normally.

None

Essentials supporting firewalls

Essentials does not support authenticating firewalls or proxies in this release.

None

Importing devices

If you encounter problems when importing devices, ensure your target system is configured correctly. Consult the following Essentials online help topics for instructions on what you need to do before importing devices:

• Importing Devices from a Local NMS

• Importing Devices from a Remote NMS

CSCdm18493

Database move script does not check directory

The database move script, dbmove.pl, does not check that the new directory is different from the old directory. In addition, the old directory is removed before all operations with the new one have been performed. As a result, the whole database could be lost.

To work around this problem, make sure that the new path to the database files is different from the current location.

CSCdm18788

Database upgrade failure

Essentials 2.0 to 2.1 upgrade will fail if the database engine cannot come to a ready state within 5 seconds.

CSCdm05454

Protocol Distribution report shows 100% TCP/IP utilization for
Catalyst 5000 switches

If the Protocol Distribution report is launched from the Reachability Dashboard, and the option for availability polling for Reload & Protocol Distribution is Off, the Protocol Distribution report shows 100% TCP/IP utilization for Catalyst 5000 switches.

If Protocol Distribution is launched directly from the Availability menu, the application recognizes that no views are configured for Protocol Distribution monitoring.

CSCdk10221

Incorrect flash memory value in hardware report

When routers are configured to partition Flash memory into two Flash partitions, Essentials might report the value of the first partition as the value of both partitions added together, then place that value in the Flash memory field.

To work around this problem, run the Detailed Device Report to check the router running configuration file. This report shows details about each Flash partition that was discovered when the router was added to inventory. You can also check the router running configuration file using the show run command from the enable prompt (Router#) to verify Flash partition information. You can use the partition flash command to modify Flash partition. Refer to the command reference document for additional information.

CSCdk35153

Chassis modem table is not polled correctly

For devices that support the CISCO-MODEM-MGMT-MIB (for instance, AS5x00 access servers), there is a time interval between the time when a modem is physically installed in a chassis and the time that the modem is configured for use. During this time interval, Essentials Inventory might detect only one of the modems. Additionally, log messages might display database integrity violations; however, these messages can be ignored.

To work around this problem, go to the device and configure the modem for use, then reacquire the inventory data for the device.

None

Telnet passwords

In order for the configuration archive to successfully gather the ATM and RSM module configurations, these modules must have the same Telnet passwords as that of the supervisors for the Catalyst 5000 family of devices.

None

TACACS with SecureID

The Essentials configuration archive does not support TACACS with SecureID. The configuration archive supports static passwords, which are defined when you add or import devices into the Essentials inventory.

None

Configuration Import Message

Cwconfig cannot validate syntactic correctness of configuration files uploaded to the device via import command. As a consequence, the import command reports success even if a configuration file with invalid contents is attempted to be written to the device. Notice that the configuration update will not succeed on the device, but cwconfig cannot detect this failure.

None

Access restrictions and file permissions

On AIX, cwconfig is a set-userid program. It is owned by root, and belongs in bin group. However, as soon as the program is started, (internally) it sets the userid to bin. Groupid of the process remains the same as the invoking user's groupid. Consequently, all files created by cwconfig, exported configurations and log files, are owned by bin and belong in the same group as the invoking user. The files have read-write permissions for both owner and group.

CSCdk12667

Command-Line Syntax Errors

When a cwconfig session has multiple syntax errors, only the first error detected by the tool is reported; the others remain unlisted.

CSCdk01464

Shutting off DNS resolution

Essentials import of IP addresses will sometimes hang if DNS resolution of the IP address does not work.

To work around this problem, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Add IP addresses in the local hosts file.

Step 2 Fix the DNS so that reverse name lookups work.

CSCdj60284

IP-SNMP gets 94% CPU when polling ciscoFlashPartitionTable

A defect exists in certain versions of Cisco IOS that causes the SNMP agent on router devices to become unresponsive to SNMP queries when certain MIB variables are polled. This bug exists only on routers that support the CISCO-FLASH MIB, which includes the following routers: Cisco 7200 series, 7500 series, RSMs (the router card for 5xxx switches) and 7000 series with RSPs.

The workaround is to upgrade Cisco IOS to 11.2(14)P or higher. Cisco IOS versions 11.3(2) and 11.2(9) also exhibit bug symptoms; Cisco IOS versions 11.3(3) and 11.2(13) contain fixes.

CSCdk93048

Downloading IOS image to the slot0 flash card on 8510CSR fails

When downloading an IOS image to the slot0 flashcard on the 8510CSR device using SNMP, the copy operation fails with copyUnknownFailure and the formatting information on the flash card is erased.

To work around this problem, use slot1 instead of slot0 as the target location of the IOS image.

CSCdk87046

Problem upgrading software on Catalyst 5000 switches

Upgrading software on a Catalyst 5000 switch from a lower version code 2.x or 3.x to 4.x can sometimes cause problems. The MCP software does not get erased from the flash completely and will result in a mismatch between the NMP and the MCP software versions.

To work around this problem, place an image on the flash card via the console of the Supervisor.

CSCdk51236

Supervisor image from device imported as ATM image during distribution

If you are not upgrading the Supervisor module in a Catalyst distribution job, but upgrading some other modules, do not select the "Backup current running image" job option. Selecting this option, which upgrades Catalyst modules other than Supervisor, can cause the Software Manager application to incorrectly import the current running Supervisor image as the module (ATM, FDDI, CDDI, Token Ring) image in the software library.

CSCdk55124

RCP not working on AIX

Software Manager fails if RCP is the transport mechanism for the default user; however, the job completes if TFTP is the fallback transport mechanism.

Software Manager needs write permission in the .rhosts file for RCP. On AIX, RCP works only if .rhosts file has 0600 as its permission. This is a conflicting requirement for a non-bin user on AIX.

To work around this problem, change the RCP user to bin. Select Admin > System Configure > RCP and set the user name to bin.

None

ATM Module upgrades on Catalyst switches

Software Management supports upgrade software on the following ATM modules for Catalyst 5000 series devices:

WS-X5153, WS-X5154, WS-X5155, WS-X5156, WS-X5157, WS-X5158, WS-X5161, WS-X5162, WS-X5167, WS-X5168.

These modules require different versions of ATM software images. Check the ATM module software release notes on CCO for compatibility between module types and software versions, and minimum supervisor software requirements.

WS-X5153 to WS-X5158 modules can run LANE ATM, PVC Traffic Shaping, or Token Ring LANE images.

LANE ATM image file names follow the cat5000-atm.* format. These modules run from 2.2 to 3.2(8) ATM module software releases. LANE ATM Software Images for these modules can be imported using Admin > Software Management >
Add Image to Library from CCO.

PVC Traffic Shaping image file names follow the c5atm-wbpvc.* file format. These images are not available using Add Image to Library from the CCO Interface. PVC Software Image version numbers range from 50.1(1) to 51.x at the time of releasing this document. Check the PVC Software Images release notes for version compatibility information.

CSCdk47488

Changing the default logging facility

Syslog messages are logged to a file. The file is configured to store local7.info messages from routers, but for the PIX devices, the default is not local7.

To work around this problem, set the PIX device to facility 23.

CSCdm14868

Catalyst 5000 does not support new message format

For Catalyst 5000 image 4.4(1), there is a new syslog message format. If service timestamp is enabled, Syslog Analyzer will not be able to parse it.

To work around this problem, disable service timestamp in the device.

CSCdk49311

Online help

To redirect CWSI Campus to another system (setting $DISPLAY to redirect the output to a different system) and have online help available, you must install the help files on each system where CWSI Campus will be used.

CSCdm27812

testdbconn gives false error message

After the system has successfully connected to the database, testdbconn gives the following message:

com.sybase.jdbc.SybSQLException: procedure 'sp_mda' not found

This message can be ignored.

None

Upgrade Essentials 2.0 to Essentials 2.1 disables CWSI 2.2

If Essentials 2.0 and CWSI 2.2 are installed, you cannot run CWSI 2.2.after upgrading to Essentials 2.1.

You must upgrade from CWSI 2.2 to CWSI Campus 2.3 to run CWSI Campus successfully.

CSCdm27636

Installation script does not check for RAM or swap space

The installation will continue even if RAM or swap space does not meet the requirements documented in the installation guide.

CSCdm28905

Nondefault path for database causes CWSI Campus installation to fail

During CWSI Campus installation, selection of a nondefault path for the database will cause the installation to fail.

To work around this problem, select the default path for the database location.

CSCdm20370

Port availability not verified

During CWSI Campus installation, you are asked to enter the TCP port for database use. The installation script does not verify that the port is available for connectivity.

If another application has already reserved this port by adding an entry in /etc/services, that particular application will fail.

To work around this problem:

Step 1 Enter /usr/CSCOcwsi/bin/stopcwsiserver

Step 2 Modify the entry for DB.url in /usr/CSCOcwsi/etc/cwsi/ani.properties.

Enter a free port number: DB.url=jdbc:sybase:Tds:localhost:<free port number>

Step 3 Enter /opt/CSCOpx/objects/db/conf/interfaces.pl localhost <free port number> cwsi

Step 4 Enter /usr/CSCOcwsi/bin/startcwsiserver

None

Catalyst 3000: Moving ports between VLANs

Moving ports between virtual local area networks (VLANs) will fail on Catalyst 3000 switches running software versions prior to Release 2.2(2).

CSCdm17900

Some C2900XL series device types are inaccurate in the CWSI Network Map

In the CWSI topology map highlighting section, some C2900XL series device types are inaccurate. The correct naming follows:

• C2916XL should be read as C2916MXL

• C2924 should be read as C2924XL

• C2924C should be read as C2924CXL

• C2924XL should be read as C2924XLV

• C2924CXL should be read as C2924CXLV

• C2926XL should be read as C2924MXL

• C2914XL should be read as C2912MFXL

CSCdj28689, CSCdj06709

LAN Emulation on Catalyst 3000 switches

On Catalyst 3000 switches, LANE client (LEC) and LANE server/Broadcast and Unknown server (LES/BUS) components that do not bind with VLANs will not be discovered by CWSI Campus. As a result, ATM VLANs consisting of these LANE components will not be discovered.

CSCdj24857

CWSI Campus unable to discover some emulated LANs

Because of the agent inconsistency (lecsLesConfigTable MIB walk skips LES instances) that exists in Cisco IOS Release 11.1(X) and Catalyst 5000 ATM image 3.2(4) (and earlier), CWSI Campus is not able to discover some emulated LANs (ELANs). This inconsistency has been resolved in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 and Catalyst 5000 ATM image 3.2(5).

None

Catalyst 5000 switch appears as ATM cloud

If a Catalyst 5000 switch appears as an ATM cloud on the CWSI Campus map, make sure that the switch has sufficient memory. The Catalyst 5000 switch comes with 16 MB of memory; however, this might be insufficient depending on the number of protocols the switch is running. Insufficient memory might prevent the supervisor agent and the LANE card from being connected. Without the connection, the ifEntries related to the LANE card will be missing from the ifTable and the device will show up as an ATM cloud on the topology.

CSCdk23407

Discovery process unable to discover LANE components on Catalyst 5000

The discovery process is unable to discover LANE components and compute proper topology on Catalyst 5000 series devices with OC-3/OC-12 modules running 3.2(8)ATM/LANE software image. This problem is fixed in ATM/LANE image 11.3(4)WA4(7a), which is also known as 3.2(9). This fix is for all OC-3 and OC-12 modules.

CSCdk91706

Selected icons on the network map might appear as white on a white background

If you run Xterminal from an AIX box, selected icons on the network map might appear as white on a white background.

To work around this problem, select Options > Properties > Map Dialog and change the network map background to a color other than white.

CSCdm08404

Network Map displays devices which have been removed

To run the command line utility for deleting devices:

Step 1 Exit CWSI Campus.

Step 2 Enter stopcwsiserver.

Step 3 Enter checkdb from the command line, followed by the IP address of the device to be deleted (checkdb -d IP). Multiple devices can be deleted by specifying multiple -d flags or colon-separated list of IP addresses.

Step 4 Enter startcwsiserver then start CWSI Campus.

This script can be run without any parameters.

CSCdm20592

Upgrade to CWSI 2.3 does not discover newly supported devices

Device discovery will not work properly for newly supported device types when your network is upgraded to CWSI Campus 2.3 from an older version. If the network already consists of these new devices, they will be shown as unknown in the topology map. This happens only for those newly supported devices that are shown as unknown in the topology map of an older version of CWSI Campus.

To work around this problem, remove these newly supported devices from the database by using the checkdb script.

CSCdj63616

Multiple configuration servers

Creating more than one configuration server at a time does not work properly.

To work around this problem, create only one configuration server at a time.

CSCdk27572

VLAN creation and selection do not work on some Catalyst 5000 switches

VLAN configuration sometimes fails on Catalyst 5000 switches (with SMP Release 3.1.1, 3.2.1, 3.2.2, and 4.1).

To work around this problem, enter the clear config all command on the device to return the device to its working state.

CSCdm19468

Port membership discovery per VLAN is not correct

On the Catalyst 2900XL series devices, when ports are configured in port groups, port membership discovery per VLAN will not be correct.

To work around this problem, do not configure any port in port groups for these devices. The port group feature is not supported for this release.

CSCdm19967

LANE component configuration does not work after loading correct image

The LANE component configuration is supported only on some software images. The LANE component configuration does not work even if the device software images are updated after CWSI Campus discovers the network.This happens on Catalyst 5000 series switches with LANE/ATM modules, routers, and ATM switches.

To work around this problem, stop the CWSI Campus server by entering stopcwsiserver, then restart it by entering startcwsiserver. You do not need to clean the database.

CSCdk31419

Configuration server error message

Configuring a configuration server or configuring the default ATM-VLAN might cause the following message to be displayed:

The following are possible causes:

• Wrong community strings

• Wrong device image

• Command already exists in the running configuration file of the LANE module (lane config auto-config-atm-address or lane config config-atm-address)

To work around this problem remove the line from the configuration file and remove the database association from the particular interface (remove the line that says lane config database xxx) and try again.

CSCdm20445

LECS support does not work properly when LECS database name has more than 24 characters

In VlanDirector and AtmDirector, LECS related functionality will not be able to work properly when the LECS database contains more than 24 characters.

To work around this problem, change the LECS database name to contain a maximum of 24 characters.

CSCdm18742

Configuring backup LANE Config Server may result in creation of an active configuration server

Configuring a backup LANE Config Server might result in creation of an active (master) configuration server. This can happen if CWSI Campus fails to create appropriate ILMI address registration entries (related to LANE Config Server) in ATM switches.

To work around this problem, remove the newly created config server (through CLI), make sure that the community strings on ATM switches are correct and retry the operation.

None

Some ATM-VLANS may not get discovered

Some ATM-VLANS might not be discovered by CWSI if LANE/ATM cards are running images that are not supported by CWSI.

To work around this problem, download the image supported by CWSI on the LANE/ATM card, then rediscover the network.

None

Atm cloud on topology map may appear because of incorrect image version on LANE/ATM card

Atm cloud on topology map may appear because of incorrect image version on LANE/ATM card. These topology problems occur for images 3.2(8), 3.2(10), and 3.2(11) on the following OC3 card models: WS-X5155, WS-X5154, WS-X5153, WS-X5156, WS-X5157, WS-X5158, WS-X5163, and WS-X5164.

To work around this problem, download the image supported by CWSI on the LANE/ATM card, then clean the database and restart CWSI server.

CSCdk41893

Deleting rows in the UserTracking table

Sometimes, when you delete rows in the UserTracking application, the application terminates with a thread dump. Currently there is no workaround. You must restart the UserTracking application. (When this occurs, the CWSI client is not affected, even if you started the UserTracking client from CWSI.)

CSCdk42144, CSCdk55803

The UserTracking application hangs when clicking in some columns

Sometimes, when you click on a cell in the VLAN, VTP Domain, or Port State columns in UserTracking, the UserTracking client might become inaccessible. You must terminate the UserTracking client and restart it.

None

TFTP server and UserTracking

In the TFTP Configuration window, do not modify the entry that specifies the VTP domain serviced by this VMPS server (vmps domain <DomainName>). If you change this line, the VMPS server might no longer be recognized by UserTracking.

None

UserTracking discovery could span more than desired subnet

When subnet discovery of user nodes is initiated, the devices in that subnet are marked for discovery. Because switches support multiple VLANs, the discovery could span more than the desired subnet. Therefore, UserTracking could discover additional end user nodes that are not in the selected subnet.

CSCdm02267

Sorting the port column

In CWSI 2.3, UserTracking by default sorts the Port column alphabetically. To sort the Port column numerically in CWSI 2.3:

Step 1 Add the property: sortPortColumnNumerically=true to the CWSIROOT/etc/cwsi/userTracking.messages file. Adding this property affects all UserTracking clients run on that system.

Step 2 After adding the property, you must restart the UserTracking client for it to take effect. You do not need to restart the ANI server.

None

Information in UserTracking may not reflect most current state of network

The UserTracking discovery process takes information from the router and switch CAM tables and displays the results as the state of the end user nodes on the network or subnet in the Last Seen field. Because these devices work in various VLANs and subnets and collect their information at different times, the information they have might not always be the most current. Therefore, the information displayed in the Last Seen field does not always reflect the most current state of the network or subnet.

None

Changes made to Minor Acquisitions interval do not take effect until the next scheduled acquisition

Changes made to the Minor Acquisitions interval (in the Acquisition Schedules dialog box) do not take effect until the already scheduled time for minor acquisitions is reached. For example, if the next scheduled minor acquisition will occur at 2:00 p.m., and at 1:00 p.m. the interval is changed to 10 minutes, the next minor acquisition will occur at 2:00 p.m., followed by one at 2:10 p.m.,
2:20 p.m., and so forth.

None

Resetting Minor Acquisitions

If you set the Minor Acquisitions interval to zero (to disable Minor Acquisitions), you can subsequently change the interval to a nonzero value, but the change will not take effect until the next time you start ANI (e.g., by invoking startcwsiserver).

None

Changing column configuration

If you change the column configuration in the Customize Layout dialog, and select Action > Display > Entries without first clicking the Apply or New Layout button, the column headers displayed might not match the contents of the columns displayed. The modified column configuration will not have been saved, but no other column configurations will be lost, nor will any data be lost.

If this occurs, exit the current UserTracking client and start a new one.

To work around this problem, always click the Apply or New Layout button in the Customize Layout dialog before displaying new UserTracking entries.

CSCdm19077, CSCdk20561

Enduser incorrectly displayed as Token Ring on Catalyst 3000 switch.

The Catalyst 3000 switch returns incorrect CAM/Bridge table information for nonexistent VLANs. This causes UserTracking to show entries with duplicate MAC addresses and with incorrect port and vlan information.

CSCdm34396

Cannot enter MAC address in non-canonical format

Entering MAC addresses in a noncanonical format (for example, using a colon in the address) will cause an error. You are restricted to adding MAC addresses in canonical format.

None

Generic indexing scheme

To enable the TrafficDirector application to use a generic scheme to communicate with embedded RMON switches, you must enable the enable-generic-control-index flag in the default.dvp file, then restart the TrafficDirector application.

None

Catalyst 1900 and 2800 switch support

CSCdm10130

No alerts for Catalyst 6000 switch

Alert Monitor does not receive any traps for Catalyst 6000 devices.

To work around this problem, configure your station as a trap receiver from the command-line interface (CLI) on the Catalyst 6000.

None

Network Analysis Module Release 4.3(1a)

• The Network Analysis Module supports the roving of only one port; therefore, adding a port to a list of roved ports is not supported.

• Running Domain Discovery against a switch port, VLAN, or FEC that is roved to a Network Analysis Module results in an error retrieving alarm entries.

None

Mini-RMON support for VLANs and FECs on Catalyst 5000

Mini-RMON is not supported for VLANs and FECs of the Catalyst 5000 family of switches. Trying to use a mini-RMON application (such as Traffic Monitor, Short- and Long-Term History, Segment Details, Segment Zoom, and so on) against a roved VLAN with the Network Analysis Module produces an error.

None

Upgrading from TrafficDirector 5.3

• When upgrading from TrafficDirector Release 5.3, all switch roving information is lost.

• The upgrade does not delete the external agent for the Network Analysis Module that was created with TrafficDirector Release 5.3. To work around this problem, you must manually delete the agent entry.

• You must change the description in the Roving Agent field to "Internal" for any switches in which the Network Analysis Module is installed. If you do not do this:

  • Roving operations with the Network Analysis module will fail.

  • Installation of properties files on the switch might not work.

This happens because the TrafficDirector Release 5.3 software used the name of the switch to define the roving agent; the TrafficDirector Release 5.6 software uses the name "Internal" for the Roving Agent field.

StackMaker: Internal debugging

When the StackMaker Debug option is set to On, debug messages print to the StackMaker Debug Log file. The default is Off. The StackMaker Debug Log file stores messages that are useful in troubleshooting problems. This log file is /tmp/.smDebugLog.

None

StackMaker: Log File from Apply Operations

The StackMaker log file stores the results of a saved stack configuration (Actions > Apply Stack Configuration). The log file is /tmp/stackmkr/sm.log. When the log file exceeds 1 MB, it automatically resets to 0 bytes.

When StackMaker runs on Catalyst 1900 devices, some debug output is printed to the console. You can ignore this output.

None

Threshold Manager

Some agents, most notably the Catalyst switches, impose a limit on the number of alarm and event entries that can be created. Applying a large number of thresholds to these devices will likely fail. In this case, some alarm entries might be successfully created but their associated event entries are not. These failed creations are marked as Failed in the Current Threshold Settings pane. If you attempt to delete those settings, Threshold Manager reports that the deletion failed (because it cannot delete nonexistent event entries.) In this case, you can ignore the error message and can verify that the deletion occurred by retrieving the threshold settings after the deletion.

To work around this problem, increase the kernel configuration parameter "number of open file descriptors per process" to approximately 90 or more.

Problem opening Help > Contents

When Help > Contents is selected from CiscoView, the help window might not open. If this occurs, it could be that there is a low limit on the number of files that can be opened by a specific process.

To work around this problem, you can run the command "limit descriptors 1024", which will increase the file descriptors.
