ACS: CSMon Message: Test Timed out

steve pearson — Mon, 11 Mar 2019 00:49:31 GMT

Hi,

I recently setup an additional ACS server (running version 4) and set up replication.

Since this has been done I am recieving email alerts (below) and I'm not this has setup correctly.

1. Is there a good clean way to ensure the replication is working and all is set up ok?

2. What does the error below mean?

Your help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Steve

Hi Steve,

You can check the replication failure of successful from reports and activity > database replication logs.

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/cisco_secure_access_control_server_for_windows/4.2/user/guide/LgsRpts.html#wp620615

The logs"CSMon Message: Test Timed out for service" is describing the following process of CSMon:

CSMon periodically performs a test login using a special built-in test account (the default period is one minute).

Looks like CSmon is not able to perform the periodic authentication of its service.

Anisha

Thanks Anisha.

I have checked replication logs, can't see anything obvious. Exported the log - below, hope this may help?

Is there something specifically I can look at in relation ot the built in account?

Thanks again
