Hardware and Software Requirements
QoS Policy Manager 4.0.1 requires that you have installed QoS Policy Manager 4.0, which runs on Common Services (CS) 3.0.5 server.
The hardware and software requirements for QPM 4.0.1 are the same as for QPM 4.0.
For detailed list of requirements and instructions to install CS 3.0.5 and QPM 4.0 on Solaris, see http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/cscowork/ps2064/
products_installation_guide_book09186a00807fc47c.html
Downloading and Installing QPM 4.0.1
You can download the QPM 4.0.1 installer file, qpm4_0_1_sol.zip, from Cisco.com, and install it on a server that has QPM 4.0 already installed.
Note
You should have a valid CCO (Cisco Connection Online) username and password to download the installer file.
The following topics describe the download and installation process of QPM 4.0.1:
•
Downloading from Cisco.com
•
Installing QPM 4.0.1
Downloading from Cisco.com
To download the QPM 4.0.1 installer file from Cisco.com:
Step 1
Go to http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/qos-patches.
You should provide your CCO credentials to access this page.
Step 2
Locate the file qpm4_0_1_sol.zip among the list of files to download.
Step 3
Right-click the file, select Save Target As or Save Link As, and specify the location to download the file to your machine.
Installing QPM 4.0.1
QPM saves the Historical Monitoring data at every hour of the system clock. Therefore, before you install QPM 4.0.1 over QPM 4.0, wait till the end of the hour to allow QPM to save the data associated with any Historical Monitoring tasks that are running.
The monitoring tasks will be resumed after you install QPM 4.0.1 and restart the CiscoWorks daemon.
To install QPM 4.0.1 on the machine that has QPM 4.0 already installed:
Step 1
Login as root.
Step 2
Go to the directory where you have downloaded the installer file, qpm4_0_1_sol.zip, and enter the following command to unzip the file:
# unzip qpm4_0_1_sol.zip -d /target directory
where target directory is the directory where you want to extract the installer file. This creates a directory called qpm4_0_1_sol in the target directory.
Step 3
Enter the following commands:
# cd /target directory/qpm4_0_1_sol
# ./setup.sh
A message appears prompting you to read the license agreement.
Step 4
Press Enter. Continue to press Enter until the prompt to accept the license agreement ends.
Step 5
Enter either:
•
y to accept the license and proceed with the installation,
Or
•
n to deny and stop the installation.
The installation proceeds if you have entered y.
A prompt appears asking you to confirm whether you need to restart the CiscoWorks daemon after this installation.
Step 6
Enter either:
•
y to restart the daemon after you finish the installation
Or
•
n to deny the restart of CiscoWorks daemon (to allow installation of any other CiscoWorks applications)
After the installation is complete, you should restart the CiscoWorks daemon before running QPM 4.0.1 for the first time.

Bug ID
|
Summary
|
Explanation
|
CSCsf08999
|
Error and exception messages appear while uninstalling QPM4.0
|
When you uninstall QPM 4.0, QPM displays an error message stating that it failed to remove the configuration from Apache server.
Workaround:
None
|
CSCsg91563
|
WRED Precedence-based weight 1 was not deployed into Router 7200
|
This occurs when you:
1. Create a policy in QPM, with 7200 (12.4) as the device constraint.
2. Define the WRED Precedence Based weight as 1 (under its QoS Properties Wizard > Congestion Avoidance page)
3. Deploy this policy on a 7200 (12.4) router.
4. Run the show run command in the device.
The WRED Precedence Based weight of 1 does not appear as deployed on the device.
Workaround:
None
|
CSCsg92053
|
The service-policy output command from QPM is not deployed to the ATM subinterface.
|
This occurs in the following two cases:
• When you create a policy in QPM, with 7200 (12.4) as the device constraint, and then deploy the policy on a 7200 (12.4) router, the service-policy output command is not deployed to the ATM3/0.2 sub-interface of the device.
• When you create a policy in QPM, with Cat6509(Cat6000_PFC3) as the device constraint, and then deploy the policy on a Cat6509, the service-policy output command is not deployed to the mls qos vlan-based command in Cat6509.
Workaround:
None
|
CSCsh02823
|
Cannot upload QoS Config for MLS QOS VLAN based in cat6509
|
This occurs when you:
1. Create a policy in Cat 6509 using the device CLI, and configure the mls qos vlan-based command in it.
2. Try to import this policy from the device into QPM by clicking Import QoS (in Provision > Policy Creation > Select Devices for Import page)
A wait message appears and this message does not refresh. This means, the import is not working.
Workaround:
None
|
CSCsh25085
|
QPM does not display a report on 7200 with POS OC3 interface
|
This occurs when you:
1. Create a policy in QPM, with 7200 as the device constraint.
2. Deploy this policy on a 7200 device with POS OC3 interface.
The deployment is successful, but in the Monitoring section of QPM, the POS interface is not displayed.
Workaround:
None
|
CSCsh64101
|
IP Telephony Wizard does not show interfaces for 3560,3750, and 6500
|
In the IP Telephony Wizard in QPM, you are not able to select some interfaces for Cat3560, Cat 3750, and CatOS6500.
Workaround:
We recommend that you use the AutoQoS Wizard in QPM to attach policies to the interfaces in Cat3560, Cat 3750, and CatOS6500.
|
CSCsh75911
|
Solaris2.9: Monitoring Graphs are not visible
|
Sometimes, while working with QPM, you find that the Historical Monitoring graphs are not displayed as they were earlier.
Workaround:
Restart the CiscoWorks daemon.
|
CSCsh90881
|
DST Testing: Historical Monitoring task does not collect data
|
This problem occurs when you:
1. Install the Common Services DST patch by following the installation sequence for QPM 4.0.
2. Create a Historical Monitoring task in QPM, by scheduling it on a day when the Daylight Saving is in progress.
However, sometimes, QPM fails to complete the monitoring task successfully, and the monitoring graph is not displayed.
Workaround:
None
|
CSCsh64379
|
Uploading Policy Map(Macros) creates duplicate Policy Map entries
|
This occurs when you:
1. Create a three level nested policy using two Policy Maps (created under Provision > Macros > Policy Maps) in QPM
2. Deploy the policy on a device.
3. Import the policy from the device to QPM.
However, QPM displays four policy maps (including two duplicate Policy Maps) in the imported policy.
Workaround:
None
|
CSCsi94714
|
OS field in the Managed Devices page is wrong for CRS device
|
This occurs when you add a CRS device (Cisco CRS-1 Carrier Routing System 4-Slot Single Shelf) with the 3.4 OS version, into QPM device inventory.
However, in the Managed Devices page, the OS is displayed as 3.3 corresponding to the CRS device you added.
Workaround:
None
|
CSCsj43673
|
CRS: Traffic rules disappear when you try to edit them.
|
This occurs when you import a policy containing the shape command in the In Traffic Rule, from a CRS device (Cisco CRS-1 Carrier Routing System 4-Slot Single Shelf) into QPM.
When you try to edit this traffic rule in the In Traffic Rules page in QPM, this traffic rule disappears from the page.
This is because QPM does not support deployment of shape command in an In Traffic Rule, although the CRS device supports it.
Workaround:
None
|
CSCsj14247
|
Cisco10008: Real/Historical Monitoring Data is not collected
|
When you try to monitor a Cisco 10008 Router through QPM, you find that QPM does not collect any monitoring data from the device.
As a result, both Real Time and Historical monitoring graphs for the device display an orange triangle, which indicates that no data has been collected from the device.
Workaround:
None
|
CSCsj14285
|
Cisco10008: Threshold deployment fails with configuration errror
|
This occurs when you define a threshold configuration in QPM for monitoring a Cisco 10008 Router.
When you try to deploy this threshold configuration on the device, the deployment fails displaying a configuration error.
This is because the Cisco 10008 device CLI does not accept the CBQoS 64 bit counter defined in the Threshold Configuration page in QPM.
Workaround:
None
|
CSCsj25265
|
Unable to launch Real-time and Historical monitoring for CRS
|
This occurs when you deploy a monitorable policy on a CRS device (Cisco CRS-1 Carrier Routing System 4-Slot Single Shelf).
When you try to monitor this policy through QPM, you find the policy displayed in the QoS Report Card page.
However, QPM does not launch Real Time charts for this policy, and any Historical Monitoring task that you schedule on the device displays a Collector Error.
Workaround:
None
|
CSCsj58396
|
Unable to configure shaping with percentage value
|
This occurs when you:
1. Create a policy in QPM, with 7200 as the device constraint.
2. Create an Out Traffic Rule for the policy.
3. In the Shaping page (under Out Traffic Rule Wizard > Actions), select Percentage, and enter a value (less than 100) for the Rate.
4. Click Next.
QPM displays an error message.
This is because QPM is not able to configure a percentage value for shaping commands.
Workaround:
Use the Aggregate value option in the Shaping page.
|
CSCsj58528
|
Shaping deployed as aggregate value uploads as percentage value
|
This occurs when you:
1. Create a policy on a 7200 device, and configure the policy by entering aggregate values for the shaping commands
2. Import the policy into QPM.
3. Preview the imported policy in QPM.
You find that the aggregate values defined in the shaping commands have been changed to percentage values.
Workaround:
None
|
CSCsj62022
|
Device level policy deployment removes RMON configuration
|
This occurs when you create a policy in QPM, with 2600 as the device constraint and deploy this policy on a 2611XM device.
When you preview this policy on the device, you find that the RMON configuration has been removed from the device.
Workraround:
None
