Refer to the Satellite User’s Guide for CiscoWorks Network Compliance Manager for information on

Note
If you are running a CiscoWorks NCM Satellite co-residency environment, you will need two CPUs,
4 GB RAM, and 128 GB disk space. You can only manage 1,500 servers and 5,000 network nodes.
Virtual Environments
If you are running CiscoWorks NCM in a virtual environment, review the follow guidelines. Keep in
mind that CiscoWorks NCM can be network intensive. As a result, if you have many virtual machines
sharing a virtual switch and network interface card, you could experience unexpected behavior,
including time-outs and failed tasks. In addition, each virtual environment is different and could function
differently under loads with shared VM Guests.
Guidelines
The guidelines for running CiscoWorks NCM in a virtual environment include:
•
VMware guests can be run on a VMware ESX 3.5 or VMware ESX 4.0 server (preferred). It is
important that the Disk I/O be split. The ESX server must have two arrays, one for the ESX
operating system and one for the virtual machines.
•
Use of Vmotion is not recommended.
•
If you plan to use virtual machines for both CiscoWorks NCM and your database, ensure they are
running on different VMware Guests. Note that this only works if you set a limit on managed
devices and keep it low. It is recommended that you have the database on a different ESX host so
there is no conflicting I/O on the array.
•
If you plan to run VMware in a Distributed System or Horizontal Scalability environment, the
maximum number of CiscoWorks NCM Cores should not exceed two.
•
Some VMware Guests time drift. This can be an issue and should be corrected. Syncing to an
external time source can solve this issue.

Getting Started
Virtual Environments
System Requirements
The CiscoWorks NCM VMware Guest system requirements should, at a minimum, be double that of
standalone server requirements. Refer to the following sections for information on standard system
requirements:
Note
•
“Supported Platforms” on page 4
•
“Supported Databases” on page 5
•
“Hardware Requirements” on page 9
The same system requirements and limitations for VMware virtual machines apply to Solaris LDOMs
and Containers.
Performance Issues
If you are running CiscoWorks NCM in a virtual environment and there are performance issues, do the
following:
•
Increase hardware resources
•
Ensure resources are dedicated through your ESX Administrator
•
Decrease the number of VMware Guests running simultaneously
•
Add a dedicated network interface card to the ESX server for CiscoWorks NCM to use exclusively
Significant performance degradation has been seen on ESX servers running multiple virtual machines
where one or more virtual machine was under heavy load. It is critical that the ESX server running
CiscoWorks NCM in a virtual environment be properly resourced so performance degradation is not
experienced.
Note
The number of managed devices does not have as significant of an impact on performance as the number
of concurrent tasks. If performance issues are seen, reduce the number of concurrent tasks and ensure
that CiscoWorks NCM is getting the appropriate resources.
Troubleshooting
Due to the unknown nature of VMware environments and usage, troubleshooting and performance
issues related to VMware cannot be resolve via Cisco Support. As a result, VMware best practices

CiscoWorks NCM Alert Center Service
CiscoWorks NCM Alert Center Service
The CiscoWorks Network Compliance Manager (NCM) Alert Center is a subscription service that
provides network vulnerability alerts on an on-going basis. This guide will assist you in setting up the
Alert Center to operate with CiscoWorks NCM.
The CiscoWorks NCM Alert Center is a unique security service. Unlike traditional alerts that are
typically delivered via email, the Security Alert service delivers alerts as CiscoWorks NCM software
compliance policies. As a result, you can rapidly identify all vulnerable devices across your network and
perform remediation before your environment is compromised. With Alert Center, your CiscoWorks
NCM server automatically checks for and downloads security alerts as they become available.
Note
CiscoWorks NCM Alert Center requires that the server hosting CiscoWorks NCM have access to the
Internet.
Refer to the Getting Started Guide for CiscoWorks Network Compliance Manager Alert Center and the
Installation and Configuration Guide for CiscoWorks Network Compliance Manager Alert Center
available at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6923/prod_installation_guides_list.html for
information on installing and using CiscoWorks NCM Alert Center.
Summary Reports
The Summary reports are generated in the Microsoft Excel (.xls) format. You can either run the
Summary reports from a Windows client computer connected to your CiscoWorks NCM server or you
can use another program to view the Summary reports if you are running CiscoWorks NCM on a Linux
or Solaris platform.

64-bit Support
When installing CiscoWorks NCM on a Solaris platform, CiscoWorks NCM uses the 64-bit Java Virtual
Machine (JVM). As a result, CiscoWorks NCM can utilize more memory.
Increasing Memory Allocation
To increase the number of task throughput in CiscoWorks NCM (number of tasks per hour), you can
allocate more memory for the CiscoWorks NCM Management Engine process (the JBoss server).
The memory allocated to CiscoWorks NCM is configured in the
$NA/server/ext/wrapper/conf/jboss_wrapper.conf file. To increase memory allocation, edit the
following lines in this file:
wrapper.java.initmemory=512
wrapper.java.maxmemory=512
wrapper.java.additional.3=-Xmn170m
Note
The numbers are specified in megabytes.
For optimal performance, set the initial memory and maximum memory to the same value. For example,
on a Solaris system with 8 GB of memory, you can set the maximum memory to 7 GB, which is 7,000
megabytes. As a result, you would change the following lines to:
wrapper.java.initmemory=7000
wrapper.java.maxmemory=7000
Generational Garbage Collector
Java uses a generational garbage collector, which means that memory is divided into different areas for
objects that are younger or older. For the best performance, specify the size of the young generation area
to about one-third of the maximum size. As a result, you would change the following line in the
jboss_wrapper.conf file to:
wrapper.java.additional.3=-Xmn2333m

Note
After modifying the jboss_wrapper.conf file, be sure to restart CiscoWorks NCM from the command
line (or Services applet on a Windows platform). If you restart CiscoWorks NCM from the Web UI, the
changes to the jboss_wrapper.conf file will be lost.
Allocating Additional Solaris Swap Space
A large amount of swap space is required because of how the fork() system call works on Solaris. When
you fork a 24 GB process, Solaris allocates 24 GB in the swap file. This guarantees that if the new
process needs to be swapped out, it can be. If the 24 GB is not available in swap, the fork() system call
fails.
In the case of CiscoWorks NCM, the 24 GB is not used. After the fork() system call, CiscoWorks NCM
exec() a small image. As a result, CiscoWorks NCM does not force the system to use that much swap
space. However, the system does need to have that much swap space allocated.
Solaris CLI Installer
For CiscoWorks NCM 1.5, the Solaris CLI installer supports 64-bit. As a result:
•
The Solaris CLI installer automatically installs 64-bit CiscoWorks NCM.
•
The Solaris SPI will upgrade 32-bit CiscoWorks NCM to 64-bit CiscoWorks NCM.
•
When upgrading to 64-bit CiscoWorks NCM, all of the wrapper configuration files (files such as
jboss_wrapper.conf and syslog_wrapper.conf) will be overwritten. Any user-specified settings will
be reset. For example, if you had set the Jboss_wrapper.conf file to start CiscoWorks NCM with 8
GB Java Heap memory, the setting will be overwritten to the CiscoWorks NCM default.
International Language Support
During CiscoWorks NCM installation, you are prompted to select a Collation Type when configuring a
new MS-SQL Server database. The goal is to facilitate use of CiscoWorks NCM regardless of your
native language, writing system, and cultural conventions.
MS-SQL Server collation dictates the character set that is stored in the database. For example, if you
select a Chinese collation, you can only enter Chinese characters, not Japanese, Korean, and so on. Keep
in mind, however, you can always enter Latin characters despite the collation type you select.
As a result of the language you select, you can enter the following information into CiscoWorks NCM
in that language:
Note
•
Comment fields
•
Description fields
•
Custom data labels
•
Most name and text fields, such as device location and vendor
Currently, you can only enter a CiscoWorks NCM username or device hostname Latin language.

International Language Support
You can search on single and multibyte character sets as long as the field being searched accepts them.
You can also import and export configuration policies that contain single and multibyte character sets.
For more information on collation, refer to your MS-SQL Server documentation.
Note
When installing CiscoWorks NCM for non-English usage on Windows 2003 or Unix, the DBCS
language support must be installed.
When using CiscoWorks NCM globalization support with Oracle, you must specify the appropriate
database character set when creating a new Oracle database. For example, to be able to input Chinese
characters, you would select one of the available Chinese character sets, such as ZHS16CGB231280, as
the database character set. In addition, if the language you select is double-byte encoded, for example
Chinese, Korean, or Japanese, you also need to set the NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS initialization
parameter to Double Byte.
Please refer to your Oracle documentation for detailed information on setting parameters when creating
a new Oracle database.

Upgrading from CiscoWorks NCM 1.2.1 to CiscoWorks NCM 1.3
CiscoWorks NCM Core Linux, Solaris, or Windows Installation Overview
The following steps provide an outline for single CiscoWorks NCM Core upgrade.
Note
Once the CiscoWorks NCM 1.3 is installed, the CiscoWorks NCM installation and its database can not
be reverted. Be sure to backup your database before you run this upgrade.
1.
Stop all CiscoWorks NCM services. Refer toAppendix A, “Starting or Stopping CiscoWorks NCM
Services” for information.
2.
To ensure that no settings or files are lost during the upgrade, backup the entire CiscoWorks NCM
directory to a safe location. For example, if you installed CiscoWorks NCM in c:\cisco\CWNCM,
backup the entire directory to a safe location.
3.
Be sure that you have backed up all of the data in the database. Refer to the Appendix B, “Backing
Up the CiscoWorks NCM Database and Files” for information.
4.
Run the Database Resolution Tool (checkdb.zip) and perform a check of the database. Refer to the
“Running the Database Resolution Tool” section on page 2-2 for instructions.
5.
Follow the install instructions appropriate to your CiscoWorks NCM platform:
– Installing CiscoWorks NCM 1.3 on a Windows Server, page 2-3
– Installing CiscoWorks NCM 1.3 on a Linux Server, page 2-4
– Installing CiscoWorks NCM 1.3 on a Solaris Server, page 2-4
Running the Database Resolution Tool
The Database Resolution Tool handles possible data corruptions and other database issues. The tool is
designed to be run from the CiscoWorks NCM Management Core. It requires information and support
files located on that system. The tool must be run prior to upgrading CiscoWorks NCM.
Note
In a High Availability Distributed System environment, the Database Resolution Tool should be run
from the Master.
To run the Database Resolution Tool insert the CiscoWorks NCM Core Software DVD 2 of 2 into the
DVD drive and do the following:
Step 1
Download the checkdb.zip file from http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/cwncm-crypto and
unzip it into a temporary directory. You will need Cisco.com credentials to get access to this page.
Step 2
Shutdown the CiscoWorks NCM Management Engine. By default, the tool will not make corrections,
but rather report them. Specifying ‘fix_errors=true’ on the command line will instruct the tool to attempt
to fix any issues it finds. Refer to Appendix A, “Starting or Stopping CiscoWorks NCM Services” for
information on stopping the CiscoWorks NCM Management Engine.
Step 3
Depending on your platform, do one of the following:
On a Windows platform: Double-click the conflict.bat file as an Admin user. For example:
c:\temp\dbconflicttool> conflict.bat.

Chapter 2
Upgrading to CiscoWorks NCM 1.4
Upgrading from CiscoWorks NCM 1.2.1 to CiscoWorks NCM 1.3
On a Linux or Solaris platform, execute the conflict.sh file as root user (or user with privileges) to the
installation directory. For example:
/tmp/dbconflicttool/# ./conflict.sh
As the script initializes the tool, the tool displays the items it is able to discover. If the tool finds the
installation directory and needed support files, it runs automatically. The tool then displays all of the
configurable parameters it is using from the following locations:
•
The command line
•
Installation configuration
These can be specified by running the script manually and specifying variable=value on the command
line.
As the tool executes, it displays each of the checks it is running and reports status. Some of the tests are
more verbose than others. In some cases, the output will help identify corrections that the tool is not able
to make automatically. After the completion of each of the resolvers, a message is displayed indicating
if the test passed or failed.
If there are SQL correctable errors, the tool reports the SQL commands that are required to resolve the
issues. By default, the tool only reports this for SQL. The tool will not execute the SQL commands,
however. Specifying the fix_errors=true parameter instructs the tool to carry out the corrections when
it reaches this point of execution.
At the very end of the execution, the tool displays a summary of each of the resolvers and whether there
were errors in them.
Note
In some cases, the tool displays an error that provides instructions on how to correct issues. In other
cases, the error will not be apparent. If the tool corrects some errors, but the CiscoWorks NCM upgrade
process fails or any issue with the CiscoWorks NCM Management Engine is not corrected, contact
Customer Support.

the folder where existing MySQL 3.23.55 stores its database files. The MySQL Upgrade Installer checks
the existence of mysql/user.frm file in this folder for validation.
Step 7
Input the root password and port number for the existing MySQL 3.23.55. Note that the MySQL Upgrade
Installer tries to locate the /etc/my.cnf file. If this file is found, the MySQL Upgrade Installer parses it
and extracts some MySQL variables from it. If /etc/my.cnf cannot be located, the MySQL Upgrade
Installer tries to connect existing MySQL 3.23.55 using account root and the given password. It then
queries MySQL 3.23.55 for certain variables.
Step 8
The MySQL Upgrade Installer displays the following warning message:
Previous MySQL installation (except MySQL data folder) is going to be removed. Make

Running the CiscoWorks NCM 1.4 Service Pack Installer
This section provides information on running the CiscoWorks NCM 1.4 Service Pack Installer. Before
running the CiscoWorks NCM 1.4 Service Pack Installer, ensure that the database server is running.
Restoring Previous Customization
The current CiscoWorks NCM upgrade process does not restore the
<CWNCM Install Dir>\jre\reporting.rcx file. If you have customized the CiscoWorks NCM Summary
reports template or specification, such as adding additional report tabs, manually update the customized
settings from the backed up version of the file to the new installed version of the file.
All settings in the site_options.rcx and adjustable_options.rcx files are preserved and restored
automatically. If you want to restore the reporting.rcx file, you must manually edit the new
reporting.rcx file. If you changed other .rcx files in the previous installation and want to keep those
changes after upgrading, you should add those changes into the new adjustable_options.rcx file. You
cannot use the previous .rcx file to overwrite the new version. Doing so could cause the application to
fail.

Solaris Platform
For CiscoWorks NCM 1.5, the Solaris CLI installer supports 64-bit. As a result:
•
The Solaris CLI installer automatcially installs 64-bit NA.
•
The Solaris SPI will upgrade 32-bit NA to 64-bit NA.
•
When upgrading to 64-bit NA, all of the wrapper configuration files (files such as
jboss_wrapper.conf and syslog_wrapper.conf) will be overwritten. Any user-specified settings will
be reset. For example, if you had set the Jboss_wrapper.conf to start NA with 1GB Java Heap
memory, the setting will be overwritten to the NA default.
•
The lmutil and associated files are now located in a different location. You might need to run the
following utility to obtain the host ID required for Cisco to create the proper CiscoWorks NCM
license:
# cd <CWNCM Install Directory>/server/ext/wrapper/lib32
# chmod a+x *

Licensing
Licensing High Availability Distributed Systems
Note
When CiscoWorks NCM starts, a license server parses the license files and caches the information. As
a result, when new license files are added, either through the License Information page or by copying a
license file to the license directory, you must restart CiscoWorks NCM.
Licensing High Availability Distributed Systems
When installing a High Availability Distributed System, both a High Availability Distrusted System and
CiscoWorks NCM Core license are required with a license count equal to or greater than your total
device inventory. Inactive devices do not count toward this number. Keep in mind that for non- High
Availability Distributed Systems, a CiscoWorks NCM Core license is required for each CiscoWorks
NCM Core server in the system.
Each CiscoWorks NCM Core server must be able to manage the entire device inventory in the event that
one or more CiscoWorks NCM Core servers go off-line and devices need to be assigned to different
managed CiscoWorks NCM Cores. As a result, any on-line CiscoWorks NCM Core server will have
license capacity to manage the devices inventory.
Note
Install the CiscoWorks NCM CORE and High Availability Distributed System licenses on the Primary
Master server only. You do not need to install licenses on other High Availability Distributed System
servers.
License Error Messages
If a CiscoWorks NCM server has multiple licenses installed, the device count allowed is the sum of all
valid licenses. If the device count exceeds the number of valid licenses, you will not be able to log in to
CiscoWorks NCM. The login screen displays a License Error message. Keep in mind that CiscoWorks
NCM records when the license server starts and how many license files are found. If you encounter
license errors, the CiscoWorks NCM log file /<NCM_ROOT>/server/log/jboss_wrapper.log might
provide helpful troubleshooting information.
For information on CiscoWorks NCM license configuration settings and License Monitor messages, see
Chapter 1 in the User Guide for Network Compliance Manager, 1.5.
Known Licensing Limitations and Problems
This section contains information about the limitations and problems known to exist in the CiscoWorks
NCM 1.5 licensing.

mysqldump -h<databaseserver> -u<username> -p<password> -r <YourFileName>.sql
<DatabaseName>
where:
databaseserver = ipaddress/hostname where database is running
username is the username to connect to the database server
password is the password to connect to the database server
DatabaseName is the CiscoWorks NCM database name. This database name is given during the
install of CiscoWorks NCM.
Example:
mysqldump -hNCMDBServer -utc -ptc –r NCM_Backup_04_30_04.sql NCM
Step 2
Copy (or move) the file to a backup location.
Step 3
Stop the MySQL service:
On a Windows platform, navigate My Computer > Control Panel > Administrative Tools >
Services.
On a Linux or Solaris platform, enter the command /etc/init.d/mysql stop
Step 4
Locate the mysql\data folder. It should contain a large ibdata file. For a standard install, this file is
located in c:\mysql\data. Copy that entire data folder to a backup location.
Step 5
Restart the MySQL service.
Note
This operation can take ten minutes or more for large databases.

Oracle Backup Instructions
Please see your Oracle DBA for information on backing up the databases.
Backing Up CiscoWorks NCM Files
In an enterprise environment, system administrators are usually required to periodically backup essential
software applications. It is recommended that you use a commercial backup/restore utility to backup and
restore the entire hard disk of the server that hosts CiscoWorks NCM. This minimizes risks of missed,
corrupted, or misplaced files.
Before running the CiscoWorks NCM upgrade, create a full copy of your CiscoWorks NCM folder.
During the CiscoWorks NCM upgrade, the CiscoWorks NCM Setup program automatically backs up
critical CiscoWorks NCM files to the following directory.
For Windows:
C:\WINDOWS\Temp\Rendition
For Solaris and Linux:
/var/Rendition/
After upgrading to CiscoWorks NCM 1.3, the installer automatically restores the following files:
•
Device software images from the backup directory are copied to
<CWNCM Install Dir>/server/images.
•
Summary reports from the backup directory are copied to <CWNCM Install Dir>/addins.
•
CiscoWorks NCM Alert Center content files are copied to <CWNCM Install Dir>/content.
•
The site_options.rcx and adjustable_options.rcx file from the backup directory are
copied to <CWNCM Install Dir>/jre, if you selected the use the previous administrative
settings option during installation.
•
The SecurID token file is restored.
•
The Gateway encryption key is restored.
•
The SSL public key certificate is restored.
•
The license.dat file is restored if you do not have a new license file.
The following files are backed up. However, they are not restored during the CiscoWorks NCM upgrade:
•
All .rcx files in the <CWNCM Install Dir>/jre folder.
– The site_options.rcx and adjustable_options.rcx files will be restored automatically if you
select the "use the previous administrative settings" option during installation. All changes in
other .rcx files will not be preserved.
– If you want to restore the reporting.rcx file, you must manually edit the new reporting.rcx file.
– If you changed other .rcx files in the previous installation and want to keep those changes after
upgrading, you should add those changes into the new adjustable_options.rcx file. You cannot
use the previous .rcx file to overwrite the new version. Doing so could cause the application to
fail.
•
<CWNCM Install Dir>/server/ext/jboss/server/default/conf/log4j.xml file. To restore previous
settings, you must manually edit this file after upgrading. You cannot just use the previous file to
overwrite the new version. Doing so could cause the application to fail.

•
Wrapper configuration files in <CWNCM Install Dir>/server/ext/wrapper/conf. To restore previous
settings in .conf files, you must manually edit the corresponding file after upgrading. You cannot
use the previous file to overwrite the new version. Doing so could cause the application to fail.
