Re: EEM Script Conversion - Page 2

Carlton Patterson · ‎02-25-2013

Hello Community,

Can someone please show me how to convert the following EEM into Tcl?

I need action 4 to produce a carriage return

event manager applet backer
event none
action 1 cli command "enable"
action 2 cli command "copy running tftp:" pattern "Address"
action 3 cli command "10.44.97.254" pattern "Destination"
action 4 cli command "I WOULD LIKE A CARRIAGE RETURN HERE PLEASE"

Cheers

Carlton

Joseph,

I formatted the flash as you suggested and uploaded the flash that works on another router, see below for show version.

I uploaded the exact same script as the one used on successful router.

Again when I try to delete the tcl script I get the same message %Error deleting flash:/cpuHighCPUUsage.tcl (File in use in an incompatible mode)

Any suggestions?

Carlton

Hi Carlton,

Just to be clear, when you format a flash you should do so using the IOS version that you plan to run on the device. That ensures the most ideal compatibility with the version of monlib that is then installed on the flash. Monlib is what is used at the most base level (i.e. it is like a driver). Really it should not matter much but in the 12.4T version of code there were some issues with monlib that can cause very odd problems with performance. I'm shooting from the hip here though, I have no evidence to claim that any of those issues are the cause of what you are seeing.

What commands are being used to access the files on flash? You might see if there are file descriptors actually open for the files with the command 'show file descriptors'. This command may require you to enable the 'service internal' command in config mode. The service internal command just enables additional commands.

Wow Mike you're good. Yes I do see the files open when I do show file descriptor.

Can you tell me how close it?

Hi Carlton,

If the files are open then we can rule out a monlib issue. We need to figure out what is opening them and either leaving them open or if the files are repeatedly being opened and closed and you never get a chance to delete them because they always look like they are open.

How might this Tcl script be accessed? Registered via EEM? Opened via the tclsh? The more command? Any other means?

Hi Mike,

Sorry the delayed response.

I believe the script is accessed via tclsh.

Will that help you help me?

I'm trying to delete all of the above but unable to...

Hi Carlton,

So all of these files are currently open by process ID 42. In this case I would normally then move on to using these commands (probably need service internal enabled):

show processes 42

show processes events 42

show stack 42

Wait 5 seconds then...

show stack 42

Wait 5 seconds then...

show stack 42

Mike

Edit: The goal is try and find out what has these files opened and why they are not closed.

Hi Joseph,

As I mentioned above, I formatted the flash as suggested and installed a flash that supports EEM 3.0. However, the version is not reflected on the router - it still uses EEM Version 2.1

Do I need to do a physical reboot of the router for the new flash to take affect and be added to the system? Or is there someway of copying the flash to system without doing a reboot?

In the show version below you will see the system image file still reflects the old image file, whereas the image on the flash is the updated image:

Yes, you must reload to boot a new OS version. You cannot do an ISSU upgrade on this platform.
