Application of redundant ACS.

Hi all! I want to use 2 x ACS for authentication services. My question is, you can configure the ACS to a change of configuration made an ACS is replicated on the other (similar to the CallManager Publisher concept and the customer). I want the ACS 2 x are identical (with the exception of the IP address, etc.) and for ease of management, I want any changes to be made automatically to other GBA. Is it possible!

Yes, it is possible.

Under the System Configuration

CiscoSecure Database Replication

Under the Network Configuration, you must add the other server under AAA servers.

  • secondary ACS 5.1 fails to cancel the registration, after IP change on primary

    jrabinow - thanks a lot!    :-)

    also, thanks for mentioning that the licence would be required, so that I could locate in advance and have it ready.

    Since there is no local CERT on the server, we should not re - install those.

    Since it is a secondary antibody that it should not have too much in terms of specific configuration

    Therefore, one possibility is to reset the configuration, so once more, it becomes just a stand-alone node and then that to the deployment as it is for any new node and as you saved it until

    Reset configuration can be done using the following command in the CLI:

    rebate to zero-config CSA

    Note that after resetting the configuration you will need to reinstall the license so make sure that you have it handy

    So if you installed a certificate server to the secondary server, you have that too

    This information comes from the release notes:

    This is a patch for the ACS 5.3.0.40 version. ACS 5.3.0.40 must be installed before you install this hotfix. So the answer is that you need not install the patches of 6/7.

  • Automatically restart vi Express following error

    Another newbie question, I'm afraid...

    I am writing an application that will spool the data in a spreadsheet for a period of time which may turn out to be several weeks or months.  I have stated the application of redundant data to ensure that I could survive a power failure in the quite inevitable cases where it occurs in that time.

    Which is all went well, now that I have worked at several problems with the formatting of data, so I put the program in place through a trial period last week and (Fortunately, I suppose) the power exploded.  Since the vi runs on a laptop, the battery kept things up that power relit, and the vi never stop.  However, because the hardware logged a loss of power (unlike my example below, the material uses a cDaq chassis), the program threw a pattern of error and things unmanaged stopped, waiting for user input before allowing data collection to restart.

    I'm looking for a way to handle errors, then, such that they will not stop the program from running.  Instead, I just want to go to a routine that waits for a bit and then resets the Express vi, management errors that are likely to be out error even once if the power of the material is always off.  I use a method that would make a controls programmer scream machine, but for the most part I just watched part of the status of the error on the cluster, commissioning an indicator if a fault is detected and also some time of start of loop that contains nothing other than a timer.  It seems to work for most; It allows, at least, the vi to continue to operate without crashing when I pull the plug on my USB-6008, which runs behind the Express DAQ.

    When I plug the device back in, however, the State of the loop resets (if I have the probe in the schema it reads, 'FALSE') but does not restart the acquisition of data Express and the ERROR indicator does not clear.

    I'm guessing that there is a very simple way to update the status in a way that the elements of program downstream can see, but do not know.  Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Danielle

    In the user dialog functions, there is a function of manifest error that you could put in the delay loop... You can add a constant error to create in the error in the DAQ thing... maybe that would...

    If you want to get real cute... can take the case of the error and decluster the error to another business that manages the specific error number... Use the handeling General error function and set it to clear the error when it matches the number you get when the system breaks down... Or just delete all of them and see what happens.

    Sorry... I have no data acquisition on the machine, here, try it.

    Hope that helps.

  • Update in progress...

    I'm trying to upgrade my ACS 1120 5.0.21 to 5.1, but if I understand well I pay first patch 5-0-0-21 - 9.tar.gpg. I use the web interface with the CSA and I'm browseing recover from the Client to the file 5-0-0-21 - 9.tar.gpg to choose and then apply the upgrade. When im able Séverine to back in what I see in the management of distributed system is updated in progress. How will I know that it works? Ho metric should I wait before restarting the box or simply cancel the update? I am doing this correctly?

    I followed the procedure described in the following link for the upgrade from 5.0 to 5.1 without any problem.

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/net_mgmt/cisco_secure_access_control_system/5.1/installation/guide/csacs_upg.html#wp1167547

    I suggest you use the command-line instead of GUI.

    If you can connect to the device via ssh, you can use 'show worm' to see if the hotfix has been installed properly.

  • Replication of the CSA!

    Hi all

    I know that GBA replicates the entire base of primary secondary and not vice versa... My scenario is:

    ACS main breaks down, and the secondary takes over... now, all adding user etc, is done on the ACS secondary... now, when the primary comes back once again, will it overwrite the secondary database and should we recreate the configs? or what secondary GBA replicates its data to the primary? its a little confusing!

    I have I'll do the ACS replication in a few days and wanted to be really sure of that.

    REDA

    Hello

    If you configure a redundant ACS server as secondary.

    All the primary databases will be replicated to secondary education.

    As you said what if secondary caught takes over and Setup takes place on the secondary.

    He will be on the primary. depends on how you configure.

    check that there is the possibility to send and receive.

  • ACS5.3: stopped working https access

    For some reason I can't get more access to the web interface of our ACS 5.3 apparatus.

    However, I can telnet to port 443 of the unit.  And I (luckily) always ssh access the unit.  So I did a reload (sorry, microsoft patterns), but that will not solve anything.

    What version of IE are you using? A newer version of Internet Explorer, you cannot open secured pages that have less force encryption.

    Have you tried another browser? In case it works well with firefox or google chrome follow it please the below listed as follows:

    There could be a possibility that you have downloaded and applied some update Windows on your machine and that could have changed the level of encryption of minRSAPubKeyBitLength REG_DWORD 512 to higher values.

    The command listed below will set the registry to 512

    Go to the PC from which you access ACS > start > run > cmd > run the below listed order

    C:\Users\Employees>certutil - setreg chain\minRSAPubKeyBitLength 512

    Once you have finished, try again and let us know.

  • How does ACS check redundancy?

    Hello

    In a router, if you configure the RADIUS server, Ganymede-1 host Ganymede-2, this is how you configure the redundancy of the ACS.  My question is, how does the router check the pulse of each RADIUS server?  By ping or another keepalive mechanism?  What this command do really behind the scene?

    What is happening in our environment, is that Ganymede-1 in Windows services keep stops by itself.  We cannot authenticate and Ganymede service does not switch to Ganymede-2.

    Hi Ganesh.H,

    Thanks for the reply.  Looking at the command documentation, it states:

    "If the command is not configured, the timeout interval is 5 seconds."

    So it is default configured regardless I enter this command or not. However, this command does not work as TACACS service does not fail over.  Any other idea?

    Kevin,

    This command is not by default configured in cisco swithces the default setting is 5 seconds if you configure timeout Server tacas only without sepcifying the time in sec.
