We have cisco works LMS 3.1 and the server have very problems, we need format the server and reinstall the Cisco Works, when I doin backup and restore of data LMS We lost the licenses? or when we restore the data in the server we have the same licenses? or get the new licenses to cisco?
I've been setting up building and testing our new ACS 5.x boxes and I've been running into a spot of bother with the backup restore feature. This most likely due to my unfamiliarity with the tool.
As part of my testing for Backup/Restore, I first backup the data using the Removal and backup tool in Secure ACS View (found under data management. I then confirm that the new FULL backup has been populated my test repository and is available in the restore feature. (also under Data Management) My next step is to create a few test Network Device Groups, Identity groups, and users Then I go back to the restore feature select the Back up file I just created, I also check the box Skip View Database backup before Restore and hit the restore button.
The box goes through the expected steps including a reload. When it comes back up I would expect the test users, groups etc I created after the last backup to be gone as they did not exist at that time. Although I find the opposite is true. Any settings I made after the last backup are still present. I do not have incremental backups enabled.
I essentially want to test a backup of the database of users and groups/rules etc make changes and then restore that database to the previous backed up configuration.
We want to take the current configuration backup of the LMS 4.0 (Installed on Win 2003 Enterprise) and restore the same to a new windows machine (Win2003 standard edition).
I have a Cisco ASA 5505 as a BOVPN endpoint using certificates. The config is complete and I now need to back it up and restore to a cold standby Cisco ASA 5505 that will sit on the shelf until something goes wrong.
Problem is I cannot restore my certifcates to the standby.
I have tried the backup and restore wizard in ASDM and to be honest it didn't work.
I recently tested the process for a customer of defaulting a Cisco WLC to factory configuration and then restoring the configuration from Cisco NCS. It was not seamless to say the least and I wonder if I have just gone about it the wrong way.
Have have set the NCS platform to configuration sync with the 5508 controllers at 04:00 every day and prior to the controller defaulting I ensured that NCS also reported that the config was in sync. I have also set NCS to complete a tftp backup of the controller every night 23:00 - interestingly though I have no idea where this is stored on the NCS platform ( a VM appliance ) or what it's file name is.
Anyway my experiences where as follows:- 1. defaulted WLC and via serial CLI ended up at the configuration wizard. 2. Set the correct LAG, management IP, host name that NCS knew this controller by. 3. To test things just created a dummy WLAN ( SSID ) as I assumed this would be overwritten ( big mistake ! ).
At this point I connected the controller to the network and tried to restore the configuration from the config sync version.
First problem - you have to remember to set up the SNMP community string you were using as it is needed by the configuration sync process. After adding this to the controller I could push the configuration to the controller.
Second problem - failed to add the first WLAN from the backup as I have added the temporary dummy W LAN via the wizard and NCS reported a conflict. So had to delete WLAN ID 1 from the WLC GUI directly and then the config push no longer reported this error.
Third problem - for some reason did not add the TACACS server details - reported the error that it could not added them. I manually added these via a template via NCS and all was well.
Fourth problem - all but the first WLAN was in the disabled state - had to re-enable all of the WLANs.
Fifth problem - any default items I had disabled or removed have not been saved - therefore I have removed the public and private SNMP communities - but these were still on the WLC after the restore. I have disabled unused ports not in the LAG as they show an error in NCS - these where not disabled after the restore.
So all in all not a very satisfactory restore process from NCS to an defaulted WLC ( meant to simulate to the customer what would be needed if they had to replace a controller due to hardware failure ).
I have a WAG160N and its seems to have reset to factory defaults, no idea why, but when trying to restore the Configuration Backup all I get is "Restore Failure <Unmatched pid>"
I'm replacing an older (& failing) RVS4000 v1 with a new V2. I need to minimize downtime. Will a config backup from the old v1 restore properly to a new v2 (all have newest firmware)? There are a lot of tweaks including several VPNs and to do it all manually is not desirable.
We are trying to make a restore from the backup done on ACS version 5.1 to a new appliance running ACS5.2 Before doing it I found this note in Cisco ACS user guide:
Note: You cannot back up data from an earlier version of ACS and restore it to a later version. Backup and restore must be performed on the same version of ACS. If you need the data on a different version of the ACS, you can perform an upgrade after you restore the data. Refer to the Installation and Setup Guide for Cisco Secure Access Control System 5.1 for more information on upgrading ACS to later versions.
How should I understand it? This note has conflicting statements. We can't restore to a later version but if you need data on a different version of ACS you can perform an upgrade AFTER YOU RESTORE the data. Doesn't it mean that the restore will still work? How would I do the upgrade to version 5.2 or even version 5.3 that was announced to be released very soon? I didn't find anything on the software upgrade in ACS5.1 guide.
I need to backup my ASA 5505 configuration and restore it to default, then I'll configure manually the new config, but if something doesn't work I want to restore the backup made before.
I tried the "copy run tftp" command, and it always answers the same: Result of the command: "copy run tftp" [code] I read everywhere its supossed to prompt asking me tftp server address and file name.
I'm trying to move from a faulty SRP527 to SRP 547 - I tried a Restore from Backup, but it doesn't work.So start from fresh, and I'm having an issue trying to add a 2nd SSID to a VLAN...
I keep getting the error:
"FAILED! SSID 2 has joined another VLAN"
Except it hasn't... its not assigned to any VLAN...
How can we restore ACS config from an existing backup file, in an ACS cluster deployment? is it through CLI? with"restore"or"acs restore" command? and should I restore only the ACS config or both ACS and ADE-OS config?
have some problems with setting up jobs for the backup running config on my switches. Have RW and RO contact with everyone and can change the config in editor, but do not get config.txt
After unable to connect to my wireless network, I did a restore - but got a message: System restore failed to replace the file (C:WindowsServiceProfilesLocalServiceAppDataRoamingPeerNetworking98c An unspecified error occurred during System Restore (0x80070002)I've tried 3 restores to get the same message.Am at a loss to get the computer back on line.Running win7 (32Bit) with Norton 360.
with TFTP upgrade SRW2xxG4_FW_1.2.3.0.ros and WEB interface after the restart, the switch will not start, display HyperTerminal link. You can also restore the switches do not?
I have a problem with the router Linksys RV042, I made a backup of it that contains a file with the extention .exp Now we have buy a new Rv042 made by cisco and the backup file is .config the question is how I convert the .exp file to a .config file so I can Restore the backup in to the new router?
I have ACS 5.3.0.40 Primary Secondary Authenticators , of which the Scheduled backup has stopped.When checked the : Monitoring Configuration > System Operations > Data Management > Removal and Backup > Incremental Backup , it had changed to OFF mode. without any reason.Later i did the acs stop/start "view-jobmanager" and initiated the On-demand Full Backup , but no luck, same error reported this time too.
This network has a peer network with a mixture of Win 7, Vista and XP computers. The network problem I am having is with an XP computer that was able to access network shares on a Win 7 Pro (64-bit) computer yesterday, but cannot today. I tried repair steps that have worked for me in the past, but didn't today.
1. Rebooted. 2. Turned off Windows Firewall. 3. Re-ran the Network Setup Wizard and select turn on file and print sharing. 4. Changed IP configuration to choose NETBIOS over TCP/IP. 5. Uninstalled AV software.
Error Messages that I have been receiving:
1. When attempting to connect to a share on Win 7 PC: "Microsoft Windows Network: The specified server cannot perform the requested operation. The connection has not been restored."
2. When trying to view the computers in the workgroup: "Workgroup is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. The specified server cannot perform the requested operation.
3. When using the command, "NET VIEW" from the command prompt: "System Error 58 has occurred.

I am having Cisco 3845 series router with c3900-universalk9-mz.SPA.151-4.M2.bin IOS . I want to install new Licence on it for DATA. When i am trying to install licence on it i am facing the error "% Error: License installation failed with error: XML parsing failed".
I'm trying to do a restore from one v5.1 box to another. The file is sent via ftp from the configured repository but when the file is sent I get an error saying failed to unpack.
My restore box is running an evaluation version at level 5.1.0.44.3
I was trying to erase my lab router 2600 and reset it back to the factory defaults. Well I was able to to reset it all right but I used the erase command which worked a little to well. So now there is no IOS and the router is in ROM mode and I didnt back up the pervious IOS "Nice". So was able to get an updated IOS for my 2600 but I'm trying to install it and don't know how. I was able to get a tftp server app for my windows pc but I'm unsure on how to configure it so I can transfer the new IOS to the router. On the up side I did learn something erasing and reset are to very different things.
I seem to have lost all portlets under the monitor dashboard in lms 4.1. I am not able to add any either. Is it possible to restore theese portlets in some way ?
we are trying to restore an ACS SE backup into an ACS Windows but we get the message error: "The backup file selected is either not a Cisco Secure V4.2 backup file or it has been corrupted". The version/patch level is the same in both 4.2(0.124). I think that is possible (restore SE in W2000), isn't it?.
I think I've done a wrong move and cancel my company e-mail address.I'm not familiar with this , but is it pssible to restore.??..and if so be as clear as possible for each step to do cause I'm not a computer wiz in that stuff.
The problematic PC is AMD triple core, with ASUS M3N78 motherboard and xp professional. PC should connect to internet through the router, TP-Link TL WR340GD, along with 3 other PCs which are all working fine. Basically, the PC caught a virus and I performed system restore. After that, the PC was working fine, except that there was no internet connection. I tried to reset winsock from command promp, but that did not sort the connection problem.I noticed that the yellow light on the back of the tower, for the ethernet cable connection, is yellow when the cable is not plugged in, however, as soon as I plug the ethernet cable in, the light disappears. The same cable is working fine when connected to other PCs so it does not seem to be the cable problem. The information in Network Connections says Limited or no connectivity. Full messages when prompted says: "You might not be able to access the internet or some network resources. The problem occurred because the network did not assign a network address to the computer.To restart the connection and try to establish full connectivity, cliick Repair." and then, after clicking repair, it says:"Windows could not finish repairing the problem because the following action cannot be completed:Renewing your IP address.For assistance contact the person who manages your network."I also tried to release and renew IP address from command promp, but that did not work either.
I'm trying to restore my IP address because my boyfriend's at work and unfortunately not I've been following all the directions I can under this articlebut I get stuck at just the first step! When I hold the Windows and R buttons down and type in command the computer says it can't find that program and also when I open my network sharing center it won't let me right click on it anywhere to get to properties so that
