Problem with LMS4.1 install

[Greg Matthews]

Getting 'swap space is not configured properly on the Cisco Prime Server' error message while trying to install LMS4.1

[Greg Matthews]

Initially 32GB were allocated to swap space and according to CW doco only needed 16GB. Had to manually change 32 -> 16 before install could proceed.

CW should be smart if to know to only alert the end user of a potential when server specs do not meet system requirement and not when the specs actually exceed the requirements.

CW is notorious for wanting one to hew precisely to the installation prerequisites. For that and other reasons, I have been leaning towards using the soft appliance version of the software for new installs. You simply drop the ova file into your vCenter server and it hands you a successfully installed VM ready to discover your network.

I'd also adivise that you consider bringing the installation up to the current (4.2.2) version. If it's a greenfield installation, one might even consider starting out with the about-to-be-released Prime Infrastructure 1.2; which finally merges LMS and NCS.
