Cisco ANA 3.6.0 Postinstallation Script
For installation procedures, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.6.5 Installation Guide.
Cisco ANA 3.6.5 is installed on top of a Cisco ANA 3.6 installation and includes all patches that were released since the Cisco ANA 3.6 release. Any patches or fix packs that were previously installed on top of Cisco ANA 3.6 are automatically uninstalled by the 3.6.5 installation script.
Cisco ANA 3.6.0 Postinstallation Script
Beginning with version 3.6.5, Cisco ANA provides a postinstallation script that fixes installation problems associated with Oracle 10G software and Cisco ANA schemas.
This script is to be used only if you are installing Cisco ANA 3.6.0 for the first time. For detailed instructions on using this script, see the gateway installation chapter in the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.6.5 Installation Guide.
Memory Consumption
If your network contains several routers that maintain 1000 or more BGP routing entries in their routing tables, and if the VNEs for these devices use the product scheme, memory consumption might increase with this release.
To determine if you are affected, see Enhanced Functionality for VNEs. If new modeling was added for VNEs used in your environment, we recommend that you check your AVM memory allocations. Contact the Cisco Project Manager or Cisco Account Team to perform the necessary calculations.
Generating SSH Keys
You must generate Secure Shell Protocol (SSH) keys to ensure synchronization between the gateway and units. SSH keys are generated on the gateway and propagated to all the units in the setup. For more information, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.6.5 Installation Guide.
Backward Compatibility
Note the following with regard to backward compatibility of Cisco ANA 3.6.5 with existing installations of Cisco ANA 3.6:
•
Before installing Cisco ANA 3.6.5, review the Best Practices for Integration BQL Parsing chapter in the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.6.5 Customization User Guide to ensure that the integration is not affected.
•
All system configuration changes made to the registry are maintained.
Solaris 10
Note
When installing a Solaris 10 patch cluster, carefully follow the instructions in the readme file that comes with the Sun patch cluster, as the readme includes procedures that are important for the successful installation of the patch.
On Sun servers, the recommended operating system for Cisco ANA 3.6.5 is Solaris 10. Cisco ANA 3.6.5 is compatible with the latest patch release as published by Sun on January 18, 2008 (Cluster patch ID Generic_120011-14). Table 6 identifies the patches included in this patch release.
Note
For any later patches distributed by Sun, contact the Cisco Project Manager or Cisco Account Team.
Solaris Services and Components
Table 7 lists the Solaris services and components that Cisco ANA uses and that must not be removed.
Table 8 lists the product services that are installed with Cisco ANA.
Using Cisco CRS-1 VNEs
Installing the Cisco IOS XR Manageability Package
For Cisco CRS-1 VNEs, you must install the Cisco IOS XR Manageability Package on top of the Cisco IOS XR version. In addition, verify that the device configuration contains the following command:
xml agent ttyCreating the SNMP Community
When creating the SNMP community, configure a new SNMP community string that has SystemOwner privileges. To do this, log into the device and create a new community read string with SystemOwner privileges, and then direct the Cisco ANA VNE to use the new community. For example:
snmp-server community 1icpub RO SystemOwnersnmp-server community ate9riv RWMissing Module Software Version Values
The module software version does not appear for Cisco CRS-1 devices that use software earlier than Cisco IOS XR version 3.7. This issue was resolved in Cisco IOS XR version 3.7 but occurs in earlier versions. For more information, see CSCsk36398.
Supported Schemes
Cisco ANA supports two schemes:
•
Product—The default scheme used for all device types supported in this release, except for the Cisco CRS-1, Cisco XR 12000 series, Cisco 3750ME, and the Juniper M-Series.
•

Limitations and Restrictions
This section includes the following limitations and restrictions:
•
OSPF
•
HSRP
Cisco ANA NetworkVision
Cisco ANA NetworkVision, with a configured 512 MB of free nonvirtual memory per running instance, supports the following number of objects, links, and devices across all maps that are open:
•
A maximum of 10000 objects; objects include devices, VPNs, Virtual Routing and Forwarding tables (VRFs), and sites.
•
12000 links
•
10000 tickets; if the same tickets are displayed in different maps, each instance is counted separately.
One map in Cisco ANA NetworkVision supports:
•
A maximum of 8000 objects
•
10000 links
•
5000 tickets
The maximum number of maps that can be opened concurrently for Cisco ANA NetworkVision is five (the default) regardless of the number of devices, links, and tickets. The number of maps that can be opened concurrently can be modified as long as the overall number of links and devices per application does not exceed the maximum limits. For information about customizing the maximum number of maps, contact the Cisco Project Manager or Cisco Account Team.
Cisco ANA Fault Management
The maximum number of open tickets (other tickets can be correlated to them) for the system is 5000. Although this number is configurable in the registry, we do not recommend increasing it. For a definition of an open ticket, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.6.5 User Guide. To avoid exceeding the maximum number of open tickets, we recommend that you close the tickets on time.
Note
Changes to the registry should only be carried out with the support of Cisco. For details, contact the Cisco Project Manager or Cisco Account Team.
A tickets capacity overflow system alarm is generated when the maximum number of open tickets is exceeded. The alarm severity is defined as critical.
Cisco ANA Workflow Editor
The following sections provide important information for working with Cisco ANA Workflow Editor:
•
Workflow Editor Template Naming Conventions
•
Workflow Editor and Floating User Licenses
•
Workflow Editor Attribute Types
Workflow Editor Template Naming Conventions
Do not include the characters underscore ( _ ) or percent (%) in workflow template names when executing a workflow or referencing a subflow. In template names, these characters act as wildcards and represent the following:
•
_ indicates a single character.
•
% indicates a zero or many characters.
If these characters are included in template names, the execution fails and the following message is displayed in the AVM 66 log:
"WARN [13 21:00:08,248] - dralasoft.workflow - Task aborted. Task: 245886, Workflow: 245885 java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Template AA_BB.template is ambiguous, templates ids are: 245874 , 245873"The following examples illustrate how workflow template names with these characters can lead to ambiguity if they are deployed together:
•
The template name WFTLM_MUESTRA.template leads to ambiguity with the WFTLM#MUESTRA.template when they are deployed together.
•
The WFTLM%MUESTRA.template leads to ambiguity with the WFTLM####MUESTRA.template when they are deployed together.
The ambiguity occurs only when templates containing wildcard characters in their names are executed.
Workflow Editor and Floating User Licenses
Users cannot open multiple Cisco ANA workflow sessions from the same PC when they are using the Floating User License.
Workflow Editor Attribute Types
By default, all attributes in Workflow Editor are of the type String. To use another attribute type, such as Integer, set the flag use-workflow-string-param-casting to true in /export/home/sheer4/Main/registry/workflowavm.xml. In workflowavm.xml, the flag use-workflow-string-param-casting appears under the workflow key.
After you change this flag to true, you can use attribute types other than String.
OSPF
OSPF networks are presented in Cisco ANA logical inventory. The current implementation was developed to present nonoverlapping interfaces so that, when a device has multiple interfaces with the same IP address and these interfaces participate in different OSPF networks, only one interface is displayed. For example, a device might have multiple interfaces that use the same IP address if it is configured for multiple VRFs.
This situation can occur when multiple OSPF processes are running on the device.
OSPF processes (OSPFService) do not have IMO representation in Cisco ANA.
HSRP
For correlation to work, the path through which HSRP signaling passes must be modeled (must exist) in the system.
ATM Topology Discovery
ATM topology discovery is performed in two phases:
1.
Discovery matches active VCs and VPs on the ATM ports.
2.
Discovery matches the traffic signatures of the VCs and VPs that were identified during the first phase.
ATM topology discovery is supported on topologies where the ports at either end of the connection are both configured with VCs or VPs. Discovery is not supported on ATM topologies where VPs are configured at one end and VCs are configured at the other end.
Adaptive Polling
Adaptive polling is supported only for Cisco devices and the Juniper VNE.
BGP Neighbors
•
When both IP and VPN capabilities are enabled between BGP neighbors, only the VPN capability state is displayed in the MpBGP neighbors table.
•
To support the BGP fault mechanism, each device must have a unique BGP router ID.
