New Features
The new features in CiscoWorks Common Services 3.1 are:
•
Installation Changes
The Common Services installation framework is enhanced to support installation of multiple applications in one solution bundle. You can install Common Services 3.1 or upgrade the earlier versions to Common Services 3.1, using the single installable bundle image packaged in the LMS 3.0 product DVD.
Common Services 3.1 now provides a cleanup script for both Solaris and Windows. If an installation fails, this script clears the files from the installation directory.
•
New Default Credentials
You can configure a default credential set comprising primary, secondary, SNMP, HTTP and RxBoot Mode credentials, and store them in DCR. You can also add or import devices into DCR with the default credentials.
•
Secondary Access Credentials in DCR
DCR allows the applications to store primary device credentials such as Primary Username, Password, and Enable Password. The primary device credentials allows the applications to access the devices and operate on them.
In this release, DCR allows you to add a secondary set of credentials. The secondary credentials serve as an alternative to primary device credentials.
Applications such as Resource Manager Essentials can use the configured secondary credentials as a fallback, if they cannot access the devices using the primary credentials.
•
Enhancements to DCR CLI and Delete Devices Option
The earlier DCR command line (CLI) utility allowed you to delete devices using their device ID.
With the enhanced DCR CLI delete devices option, in both shell and batch modes, you can delete the devices using their own identifiers such as hostname and domain name combination, and display name.
You can also delete devices from DCR as specified in the input CSV file, using the enhanced DCR CLI utility.
The DCR CLI now provides an option to export the device information from DCR to ACS Server.
•
Security Enhancements
Common Services 3.1 has the following security related changes:
–
ACS Support
Common Services supports integration of ACS 3.3.4 for Windows Server and Appliance (except ACS 3.3.4 Appliance), and ACS 4.1 for Windows Server and Appliance with CiscoWorks server, in addition to the support for ACS 3.3.3 and ACS 4.0 versions.
This security related enhancement requires the role and task definitions to be revisited. You should register the revised role and task definitions with ACS Server in the ACS mode.
–
Enhancements to Permissions Report
In the enhanced Permissions Report, the tasks are grouped based on applications and displayed in a tabular form. This allows you to quickly locate a particular task in the report.
You can also sort the display of tasks in alphabetical order or in reverse alphabetical order within a task group.
–
Super Admin Role in ACS Mode
This is a predefined role introduced in this release. This role has full access rights to perform any task including the administration and approval tasks in CiscoWorks.
You can assign this role to a user only on ACS Server and only when your login module is set to ACS. This role is not available in CiscoWorks local mode and during the local user setup in CiscoWorks Server. The Permissions report does not display information about this role.
–
CiscoWorks and Microsoft Active Directory Server Integration Changes
Earlier, CiscoWorks supported only distinguished name based authentication to Microsoft Active Directory Server.
In this release, the integration of CiscoWorks Server with Microsoft Active Directory Server is made more flexible.
CiscoWorks now also supports User Principal Name (UPN) based authentication, domain name based authentication, and Security Account Manager (SAM) account based authentication to the Microsoft Active Directory server.
–
Bulk Addition of Local Users Through CLI
In the earlier releases, Common Services allowed you to add local users to CiscoWorks Server only through the user interface. Common Services did not support bulk addition of local users.
With the introduction of a script for adding local users, you can add bulk local users through CLI. You can also import the local user information from remote servers of similar version through CLI.
•
Enhancements to CiscoWorks Home Page
CiscoWorks home page and the application windows that are launched from CiscoWorks home page now contain the name of the CiscoWorks Server along with the browser title.
This feature helps you to identify the server in which the applications are installed. This is particularly useful in a multi-server setup and Single Sign-On (SSO) based setup.
•
Changes to Device Center Connectivity Tools
Common Services 3.1 provides an enhanced user interface to select a specific SSH protocol version (SSHv1 or SSHv2) for a device using the Management Station to Device tool. This is used to test the protocol connectivity against the chosen device.
•
Logging Configuration
The new Logging Configuration user interface allows you to enable debug modules in Common Services such as DCR, Software Center, CiscoWorks home page and so on.
You do not need to restart the daemon manager after you have enabled the debugging option for a particular module.
•
Disk Space Monitoring and Threshold Configuration
You can monitor the disk space availability in your CiscoWorks Server and configure the threshold level of disk space utilization. You can also set an option to notify end users through e-mail when the disk space exceeds the selected threshold level.
•
Backup-Restore Changes
The Backup-Restore component is enhanced to send you an e-mail on the status of immediate or scheduled backup jobs when they complete.
The e-mail notification is also sent when you schedule a backup job or remove a scheduled backup job.
You should configure one or more e-mail addresses if you want to receive the email notification.
•
Hostname Change Script
Earlier when you changed the hostname of the CiscoWorks Server, you needed to manually change the hostname related entries in the CiscoWorks directories and files, registry entries, and databases.
Common Services 3.1 provides a script to automatically update the CiscoWorks directories and files, registry entries, and databases, after you have changed your hostname.
•
IP Address Range Based Device Grouping
Earlier, you could not create a device group for devices within a specified IP Address range.
With the introduction of new range operator, you can group devices within a range of IP Addresses. You can also perform an advanced search of devices within a specified IP Address range.
•
Support for CiscoWorks LMS Portal and CiscoWorks Assistant
Common Services 3.1 supports new LMS applications namely CiscoWorks LMS Portal and CiscoWorks Assistant that help to improve the usability of existing applications in the LMS bundle.
CiscoWorks LMS Portal helps you to set up a customized home page. The status summary of Common Services jobs, security configurations and other information are available as portlets in the LMS Portal application.
CiscoWorks Assistant is a web-based tool that provides workflows to help you to overcome network management and LMS deployment challenges. Using CiscoWorks Assistant you can easily deploy multiple LMS server and maintain device credentials.
See the User Guide for CiscoWorks LMS Portal 1.0 and User Guide for CiscoWorks Assistant 1.0 for more information.
•
Support for MDF 1.18
Meta Data Framework (MDF) Package defines device types in a uniform way across CiscoWorks applications. This package contains new device types, new device type definitions, new device icons, and solutions to some problems in earlier MDF packages.
This package contains new device types, new device type definitions, new device icons, and solutions to some problems in earlier MDF packages.
The MDF package version 1.18 contains the following new device types:
–
Cisco 5720 Integrated Encryption Router (1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.820)
–
Cisco 5740 Integrated Encryption Router (1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.833)
–
Cisco 5750 Integrated Encryption Router (1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.731)

Time Zone Acronyms and Offset Settings
Table 2 shows time zone acronyms supported in the CiscoWorks applications that use the time zone feature.
•
Column 1—Alphabetically lists the supported CiscoWorks time zone acronyms. Change Audit reports may display time zone information differently.
•
Column 2—Lists the spelled out time zone definition.
•
Column 3—Lists the area covered by the time zone.
•
Column 4—Lists the column's offsets from Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
•
Column 5—Lists the time zone setting for that zone's server.
•
Column 6—Lists the resulting output in reports.
If you generate reports, the output will vary depending on whether the data has been processed through Perl or Java. Table 2 also provides possible output for either case scenario.
To ensure that time zones are translated correctly—especially when your devices, servers, and clients are in different time zones—follow these guidelines:
•
When configuring time zones on managed devices, use the acronyms listed in the Time Zone Acronym Setting on Device column. To set time zones on devices, use the command described in the device-specific Command Reference documentation.
•
The device should be configured to send Syslogs with the appropriate timezone acronym that indicates whether daylight savings is in effect at the time of sending the Syslog. This is to ensure that the Syslog analyzer or Essentials uses the correct acronym for time conversion.
•
When configuring time zones on CiscoWorks servers, use the supported values in the Time Zone Setting on Server column.
Changes made to the system time zone from outside CiscoWorks applications might not be reflected in already-running CiscoWorks applications. After changing the time zone, restart all CiscoWorks applications.
Multi-homed Machines
A multi-homed machine is a machine that has multiple NIC cards, each configured with different IP addresses. To run CiscoWorks Common Services on a multi-homed machine, there are two requirements.
•
All IP addresses must be configured in DNS.
•
Owing to restrictions in CORBA, only one IP address can be used by the client or browser to access the server. You must select one IP address as the external address, with which the client will login to the CiscoWorks server.
To select an IP address:
Step 1
Modify the gatekeeper file located in /opt/CSCOpx/lib/vbroker/gatekeeper.cfg.
Step 2
Replace every instance of external-IP-address with the external IP address you choose, and remove the "#" character, from the following:
•
#vbroker.gatekeeper.backcompat.callback.host=external-IP-address
•
#vbroker.se.exterior.host=external-IP-address
•
#vbroker.se.iiop_tp.host=external-IP-address
•
#vbroker.se.interior.host=external-IP-address
Step 3
After modifying the gatekeeper file, restart the Daemon Manager by entering
/etc/init.d/dmgtd start
Operating System Upgrade
While installing CiscoWorks Common Services, the installation process checks for required patches. Install any missing solaris patches and cluster patches.
For a list of required patches, see Chapter 2 of Installing and Getting Started with CiscoWorks LAN Management Solution 3.0 at: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/cscowork/ps2425/prod_installation_guides_list.html.
CautionIf CiscoWorks Common Services is run without the required patches, it will not function properly.
Server and Client Information
For information on server and client requirements for the system and browser, see the Prerequisites chapter of Installing and Getting Started With CiscoWorks LAN Management Solution 3.0.

CSCsd21327
CMF database does not run and displays the following Sybase Assertion error message:
*** ERROR *** Assertion failed: 100909 (9.0.0.1383).100909 is the Assertion ID.
The following are the scenarios where Assertion Error might appear:
1.
If you use any third-party backup software to back up a live, running database, the Assertion Error might be thrown.
This is because some of the database pages that have been modified will be in the database server cache, so the database file will be in an inconsistent state.
2.
If you use any anti-virus software.
This is because Adaptive Server Anywhere performs many reads and writes other than the normal I/O operations, which contribute to the good performance of Adaptive Server Anywhere.
However, anti-virus software might detect this as a potential problem and quarantine the file. This becomes hazardous if the .log or temporary files are quarantined, and it may cause corruption by interfering with the normal functions of the database.
Poor performance can also occur if the anti-virus software is checking all I/O operations performed by the database server.
Workaround:
We recommend that you do not use third-party backup software for backing up a running database.
We also recommend that you configure your anti-virus software so that it must not scan the NMSROOT/databases directory.
NMSROOT is the directory where you have installed CiscoWorks.
CSCsd79317
PSU screens in the Summary window allow you to edit values while installing device packages.
