vWLC in NCS

Hello community,

Does anybody know when the NCS will support a vWLC? At the moment it is still an "unknown device".

And there is no NCS version update out yet.

Regards,

Well I would think you need vm unless you run red hat Linux enterprise.

No problem with RH.  VMware, however, is gonna be dirty fight.

Haha... You just need to be more convincing:)

Worst case scenario:  Buy a VM host and our team manages it.

Nuts.

Cisco Prime Infrastructure System Requirements

System Requirements

Server Requirements

VMware ESXi Server software is required on the server. Version 5.0 is required for the Large and Extra Large OVAs. Version 4.1 will work with Small and Medium OVAs, but 5.0 is preferred. Prime Infrastructure 1.2 has not been tested with VMware ESXi Server versions later than 5.0.

Prime Infrastructure can be installed as a pre-sized virtual appliance ( OVA) on a your own server. The minimum server requirements for each of the Prime Infrastructure OVA options are as follows:

•                                                  Small OVA (requires ESXi 4.1 or 5.0):

–   RAM—8 GB

–   Disk Space—200 GB

–   Processors—4 virtual CPUs

•   Medium OVA (requires ESXi 4.1 or 5.0):

–   RAM—12 GB

–   Disk space—300 GB

–   Processors—4 virtual CPUs

•   Large OVA (requires VMware ESXi 5.0):

–   RAM—16 GB

–   Disk Space—400 GB

–   Processors—16 virtual CPUs

•   Extra Large OVA (requires VMware ESXi 5.0):

–   RAM—24 GB

–   Disk Space—1.2 TB

–   Processors—16 virtual CPUs

Prime Infrastructure is also available as a hardware appliance, which comes pre-installed with the Large OVA and has the following specifications:

–   RAM—16 GB

–   Disk Space—400 GB

–   Processors—16 virtual CPUs

Hello.

I followed the instructions of the Quick Start Guide but after "application upgrade" I cannot login into my NCS login page.

Changing to the root shell and looking into /opt/CSCOlumos/logs/ncs-0-0.log showed me the error:

ERROR [aaa] [http-443-2] Exception occurred  org.springframework.security.core.userdetails.UsernameNotFoundException: Cannot find user: root

Changing the NCS root password on the CLI worked fine! Without any error messages. But I still get the error that the user root is not found anymore. (Any other created users by myself from the past do not work as well...)

I also tried rebooting the whole virtual system... without any success.

Does anybody tried the upgrade process here too and figured out similar errors?

Did you figure out the solution?

I had no issues during the upgrade. I did upgrade from 1.1.1.24 to PI 1.2.

Hmmmm.. I did the same... 1.1.1.24 to PI 1.2. :-\

Now I am frustrated and did a ncs db reinitdb. Maybe it will start working again after this....

After the reinitdb even ncs password root failed with "Cannot find user: root"

Can you restore it back to 1.1.1.24... Maybe something failed during the upgrade.

Allright. I will come back to you in some hours.

*restoring my backup first and then going back down to 1.1.1.24*

lol. While restoring the backup my virtual machine ran out of memory... and accessing it back through vSphere Client didn't succeeded neither... So I tried to give the virtual machine more disk space, it was turned off, and now i can't turn it back on.

..... I will just download PI 1.2 directly now .....

Wow... Now that what you call corrupt... Or just FAIL:)

Do you guys know/heard something about WLC support 1200 series... lol i'm so desperate about that - mean 7.2.x and up

That model will not be supported.  Even with 7.3, you start loosing support on older ap's.

Thanks,

Scott
