LMS 4.0.1 user tracking acquisition problem

fbender
Level 1
Level 1

Hi all,

I have a problem with user tracking as I see IP phones only on a few of my switches.

Credential Check runs without any issues, DNS is working for the devices (both name -> IP and IP -> name)

I have deleted and readded the devices and run a discovery afterwards.

What I found is: going to acquisition (Admin> Collection  Settings> User Tracking> Acquisition  Action) and do a Device Selection I can select the switches but when I then start the acquisition I get an error "unreachable Device".

Deivce Unreachable Report shows no unreachable devices.

Do I miss something?

Thanks

Frank

please find attached the requested files

PS: port data is aveilable for:

nlse-def2ri12.2(31)SGA10.49.48.211.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.501

but not for

nlse-def4ri12.2(31)SGA10.49.48.411.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.501


both are 4507Rs, same IOS, same connectivity (L3 port channel)

there are obviously more issues and I am not sure they are related:

10.49.48.22 is a 4507 with a Gig interface - here is a cdp nei from 10.49.48.1

nlsc-de1001#sh cdp nei gi 12/15
Capability Codes: R - Router, T - Trans Bridge, B - Source Route Bridge
                  S - Switch, H - Host, I - IGMP, r - Repeater, P - Phone,
                  D - Remote, C - CVTA, M - Two-port Mac Relay

Device ID        Local Intrfce     Holdtme    Capability  Platform  Port ID
nlse-def2le      Gig 12/15         179             R S I  WS-C4507R Gig 1/1
nlsc-de1001#

There are truly no ports discovered on this switch.  Now that you have the port channel patch installed, reinitialize the ANI database as described in this document:

https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-8796

Then run a new full Data Collection.  Then run a new full User Tracking acquisition.  See if your missing end hosts show up.

unfortunately it did not help

As I am still at an earlier stage of my deployment I decided to do a full db reset, but it seems I have an issue with the RME DB (tried 2 times)

Resetting all of the DBs was likely excessive.  However, since you've started, you need to finish the job.  Set the Daemon Manager service to Manual start, then reboot the server.  When it comes back up, reinitialize all of the databases.  After that, set the Daemon Manager service back to Automatic, then reboot again.

finally I managed to clear the db and rediscovered everything.

But the same issue: I get user trackinng info from all my 35xx but not the 45xx.

Run a new full Data Collection then post the ani.log.

here it is - showing lots of warnings

there is a job which is running since 10h while jobs normally run only for a few minutes - does this mean anything?

It appears Data Collection is completing.  Troubleshooting further will require the full running configuation from this switch as well as the output of "show interface status" and some debugging on the ANIServer side.  This will obviously contain some sensitive information.  As such, you may want to open a TAC service request using the "Open Service Request" link in the actions panel of this discussion.

Joseph many thanks for you help!!!

Hello Frank.

Did you solve it?

I'm facing same issue with a 3750 stack with IP routing enabled.

I'm going to apply the patch for CSCto0618 bug.

Regards.

Andrea

Hello Joseph.

I have the same issue: LMS 4.0.1 with all consolidated patch is not able to track users connected to a 3750 stack with IP routing enabled.

I'm trying with LMS 4.1 demo and all works fine!

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Regards.

Andrea
