State of VCS cluster?

• Status of VCS Cluster through CLI

  Hello

  Is it possible to check the status of the Cluster of CLI VCS Cluster?

  I have found that a single command:

  XStatus external 1 Applications

  * Applications (s):

  1 external:

  Status:

  ClusterStatus:

  ClusterState: "enabled."

  ClusterLastSyncDate: '2013-04-02 08:39:19.

  ClusterNextSyncDate: '2013-04-02 08:40:19.

  ClusterLastSyncResult: "SUCCESSFUL."

  * s/end

  Ok

  But if I disconnect one of the peers of the bunch, fruit of xstatus external 1 Applications is the same.

  Is it possible to check the status of the Cluster via CLI database?

  -What happens when the cluster breaks down?

  -What command can I use to check the status of the Cluster, Cluster database state, the State of the communication with other peers? What are the States of possible failure?

  Thanx.

  Marek.

  Do not find them as documented, so use at your own risk :-)

  In any case, I like web access https better for information of status and then to misuse the root account.

  Create an account with api read access and get:

  https:///api/management/status/clusterpeer

  the output may differ with different versions

  (that one was a X6.1 but X6.1 seem to show that the other peers see as well)

  [{"peer":"192.168.0.91","num_recs":2,"records":[{"uuid":"54c4b972-0d5f-4748-90f6-3203d5eae693","peer":"192.168.0.91","state":"up"},{"uuid":"8939f6d5-77d8-4ec0-b275-19cd95b905d5","peer":"192.168.0.90","state":"up"}]}]

• VCS Cluster configuration

  I'll put up a cluster between VCS - 02c in version 8.x and one of them will be the captain. I will put all endpoints in the VCS - C Master points, what would happen if the master of VCS - C problems? My end points would be automatically transferred to another VCS - C (backup)?

  Hello

  Setup is a cluster of VCS VCS a set up a Master and others as a slave.

  Your points of termination/Codec must register to the VCS cluster (you need to update your DNS with VCS cluster name i.e. clustervcs.domain.com with the ip addresses of two VCS.  You can use SRV records to do a primary and the other back).  If your CODEC does not support the SRV record then you can put the IP of master VCS and the registration, the VCS Master will provide the idec with its ip address and ip address of the slave VCS.

  A good link:

• VCS Cluster DNS problems

  Hello

  I have created a DNS SRV to configure in the FULL of the VCS Cluster domain name.

  The problem is when devices try to enroll in the VCS Cluster; I put in the endpoints, in Gatekeeper registration DNS or IP address of the DNS SRV but the always end points will never reach the cluster of VCS.

  I check the logs in DNS SRV and I don't see any request from devices.

  I think I need to create a virtual IP address with DNS with load balancing, I mean: IP/DNS (FQDN) for the Cluster with load and balance when devices trying to connect to the cluster's IP/DNS it transmits the request to an IP or host name of a host in the cluster.

  DNS cLuster

  23.1.0.201 (vcs.xxx)

  The peer of the cluster:

  23.1.0.32 (vcscontroltc.xxx) Master

  23.1.0.33 (vcscontrolvag.xxx) slave

  XXX--> field

  Is this right?

  Thanks in advance.

  Best regards.

  Hello

  then 23.1.0.201 is the IP address of your DNS server?

  How you need to configure is:

  FULL of the cluster domain name: vcscluster.domain.local

  VCS counterpart A: vcscontroltc.domain.local

  VCS counterpart B: vcscontrolvag.domain.local

  With the above assumptions, that's what you create in DNS:

  -For the FULL domain name cluster, create two A records for vcscluster.domain.local one pointing to 23.1.0.32 and the other pointing to 23.1.0.33. With that, I recommend that you enable alternate on your DNS server.

  -For each peer, create a record, so vcscontroltc.domain.local points to the points 23.1.0.32 and vcscontrolvag.domain.local to 23.0.1.33.

  -Create SRV H323 and SIP records for vcscluster.domain.local. With that, I recommend that you create two SRV records for each service, pointing A Exchange and showing a B counterpart, with a weight and priority. For example:

  _sips._tcp.vcscluster.domain.local-> vcscontroltc.domain.local, priority 1, weight 50

  _sips._tcp.vcscluster.domain.local-> vcscontrolvag.domain.local, priority 1, weight 50

  If you follow the advice above, you should be able to configure all of your interior SIP and H323 endpoints with a h.323 gatekeeper address/SIP proxy address, of vcscluster.domain.local and endpoints must enroll in one of the peers, regardless of whether endpoints supports DNS SRV.

  If the domain that you use is public, you also want to add the SRV records for that domain name. These SRV records must point to your VCS Expressway, to ensure that incoming calls from URI function as it should. For example:

  _sips._tcp.domain.local-> vcse.domain.local, priority 1, weight 100

  If you have several VCS-E you can adjust the SRV records accordingly.

  Hope this helps,

• Highway VCS cluster

  Hello

  We intend to deploy VCS Cluster consisting of two expressway Expressway.  The two highway will be activated with Dual Interface. Need some clarification regarding the ip and dns address. Here is an example of setting.

  for example

  Highway of VCS A: 192.168.10.2 for the first interface.   192,168.20.2 assigned to the second interface and nattted to 77.100.42.23

  Highway of VCS B: 192.168.10.3 assigned to the first interface. 192.168.20.3 assigned to second iinterface and natted to 77.100.42.24

  name of the cluster: video.exampledomain.com

  FULL domain name: video.exampledomain.com will be be mapped both the public ip address 77.100.42.23 and 77.100.42.24 with the required SRV records.

  When customer movi connect to video, exampledomain.com traffic will be routed to 77.100.42.23 and 77.100.42.24 in "round robin" mode.

  Well confirm the above is the correct way to deployment and what will happen if A vcsexpressway is down. always the first call will fail because the rqurest will be sent to 77.100.42.23 and the second appeal attempt will succeed.

  Krishna.

  Hello Krishna,

  your deployment plan looks good, assuming that 192.168.10.x and 192.168.20.x are different subnets. Please be sure to set up clustering on LAN1 (the interface non-translated) which seems to be part of your plan.

  Concerning the behavior of call when one of the VCS is down, assuming that your SRV records were properly implemented and that the remote caller has good DNS SRV support for its implementation H323 and SIP, the appealing party must switch to VCS work in case of failure of the initial connection to the slaughtered VCS. In any case the result will depend greatly on the conduct of the appellant and his ability to switch to other VCS during his attempt to connect through the slaughtered VCS fails.

  Hope this helps,

  Andreas

• Maximum non-traversal calls from VCS Cluster

  Hi all

  As mentioned in the CV data sheet, I know that a VCS can accommodate up to 500 calls from nontraversal.

  But VCS cluster which consists of 6 VCS can treat 2,000, steps 3 000 (6 x 500).

  I wonder how many calls each VCS cluster can handle.

  Is this correct?

  2 VCS cluster

  => Registratrions up to 5,000?

  Up to 1,000 calls in nontraversal?

  Up to 200 calls course?

  VCS cluster 3

  => Registratrions to 7 500?

  Up to 1,500 calls to nontraversal?

  Up to 200 calls course?

  4 VCS cluster

  => Registratrions up to 10,000?

  Up to 2,000 calls in nontraversal?

  Up to 300 calls course?

  5 VCS cluster

  => Registratrions up to 10,000?

  Up to 2,000 calls in nontraversal?

  Up to 400 calls course?

  6 VCS cluster

  => Up to 10 000 registratrions

  Up to 2,000 calls from nontraversal

  Up to 400 calls course

  Best regards

  Hi Kotaro,

  even if the 6 servers are taken in charge by vcs cluster however only 4 will be active. So 4 * 500 is 2000 license.

• VCS Cluster - record H.323

  Hi all

  We have a VS Cluster and would like to register 2 MCU´s and a gateway with H.323 on it.

  -Inscription on the first not peer very well - no prob. record of 2. Peer - does not (source unauthenticated received fron)

  VCS Trace... no this crypto token / / invalid cryptographic tokens.

  Its allways happened on 2. peer.

  Restart the MCU, restart Cluster, see time servers, disabling / enabling H.323 in VCS and MCU - all done, always the same failure.

  VCS Cluster / MCU / ISDN are all in the same subnet, but in another location. RTD between the location is less than 10 ms.

  BTW: SIP with tls runs without any risks.

  Does anyone have an idea?

  Thank you much for your helping hands

  /Dirk

  In general this should not happen.

  You said you checked the time servers, but have you also checked the actual time on the

  VCS and the endpoint? (for example the login as root and check with the date).

  Try to use the same NTP server on all VCS and endpoints.

  Is the group itself ok (see configuration / clustering)?

  Something not ok with the zone configurations?

  You have any local specific or server based CPLs on VCS?

  No matter what firewall/nat/alg between VCS and the endpoint?

  Do you have a xconfig on two VCS and compare the config of the differences?

  Your sure it's the right vcs you hit?

  Do you still review log files and compare what's happening the first relative to each other?

  A tcpdump and check on the VCS of debugging can be interesting as well.

• VCS 'OLD' device and device New VCS cluster "(CE500)" ""

  Hello.

  An easy question, can you do a VCS cluster between the 'old' and the 'new' device? is there a limitation?

  In the prerequisites, I saw some VM 8 hearts, but do not understand a lot.

  Thancks! An optimal day

  Hello Alex.

  As long as the VCS platform is the same (physical or virtual) and running the same versions of software and complete you the prerequisites.  See Maintenance and creation of VCS Cluster Deployment Guide for more information.

  The part on the cores is related to your virtual deployments, so if you use virtual VCS, he wants to make sure that you use the same size of deployment noticed on pg 4 of the installation Guide for the VCS VM.  You don't have to worry about this with the hardware appliance.

• Question about unique to the VCS cluster driver

  I'm just configuration conductor for the first time according to the guide found here:

  http://www.Cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/TD/docs/Telepresence/infrastructure/con...

  Because I need to connect to a VCS cluster with two counterparts, each counterpart must be configured as a separate with its own appointment IP address location, (in which case I guess I would add two IPs Rendezvous in the nearby area of VCS Configuration) or should I point to the VCS Cluster FULL domain name and I have an IP to unique appointment for all of the VCS cluster?

  I can't see anything in the guide on this subject...

  Thanks in advance!

  Hi Nick,

  Unique location pointing to the VCS cluster FQDN.  You are right the guide lacks details, will focus on opening a defect in the documentation for this.

• VCS Cluster question

  Hey all,.

  We have two VCS highways in a cluster.  A VCS is on a tour of the Internet and the other is on a circuit separate from another provider.  The Internet provider for one sucks VCS for video, its only necessary as a backup circuit.  I put this VCS in maintenance mode until the circuit feeding the other VCS fails?  In this way, all records are forced to the VCS with the best circuit of the Internet.

  If a VCS is in maintenance mode, will always be synchronized across the cluster?

  Thank you

  Justin-

  I went forward a sale of our peers CV in maintenance mode earlier today to work around a problem, and it is always on at this point.  Check the page clustering on the mask of the VCS, it shows that the peer is still active.  Having the status of the replication of successful, even up to present any minute.  It seems that everything is going well, but like you if it would be good to hear from someone official.  Even if we force a counterpart basically be in a passive state until get us out maintenance ourselves to become active.  Unlike a cluster of 6 peers where the last two automatically become active when one of the 4 main counterparts breaks down.

• VCS CLUSTER PROBLEM

  Need an idea to fix a few alarms on my cluster configuration two VCS.

  VCS are running X8.5.1

  Had five alarms on the my resume

  1. the replication is no longer available.  Systems have 4ms between them.

  2 lost all Admin user accounts less?   Strange... Newspapers reported that no one was in the VCS

  3. admin VCS Master on the master account was returned to the TANDBERG default?   (Alarm has stated that this was the case).

  Changed the admin password and recreated my admin on the master account.

  4 approves. it 2 (slave) lost all VCS user account, but the admin password reset not and does not have that I have listed.

  My partner has been able to connect to the peer 2 VCS, even if his account is not listed in the list of users?

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  After the captain restart now, I have three alarms

  a. unexpected software error has been detected in ClusterDB: unknown reason on the slave?

  b. There is a port conflict between the media (36000-47999) port range and the range of ports UDP ephermeral (40000-49999) on Master

  c. Core dump mode has been changed, but a reboot is required before this takes effect on Master

  1. any ideas what could have caused the user accounts to disappear on the page?  I think that they are still in the VCS configured just cannot see them.

  2 will be restarting on the master clear alarms b and c?

  3. a reboot on the peer 2 (slave) would open the ClusterDB alarm?

  I can't restart until later tonight that calls are up on both.

  Oh finally where one or even any changes a core dump mode?

  Thank you

  Connect to the VCS via Telnet/SSH/series and log in as 'root '.

  use the command 'selectsw' to see what partition software he's using now, then, if image1 is active, allows the command "selectsw image2" switch to the other, or vice versa, and then restart your computer.

• VCS EXPRESS WAY CLUSTER

  Hello

  We intend to deploy VCS Expressway Cluster for a company with two sites. Each site will have a VCS Expressway. Dual interface and NAT will be used. I would like to know the list of ports is used for cluster communications. Annex 3 of the Guide to creation and maintenance of Vcs Cluster located in the below mentioned website has details of the port. But this is not not in our Setup. It would be great if someone can provide me with the list of ports to be opened.

  http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/products/ps11337/products_installation_and_configuration_guides_list.html

  Adding to Guy, note that all VCS must deploy within the period of round-trip 30ms for clustering.

  VCS cluster communicate among themselves and to replicate/share information between them.

• Registration of endpoint to the VCS control cluster

  Hello

  We have VCS cluster in our environment (primary and secondary control VCS and VCS-Express). I could see almost as many end points on each control VCs. How is endpoint knows which server control VCS, it must register to? How does this load balancing is performed. any setting that I have to look?

  Thank you!

  It depends on how you have your DNS configuration.  Can you tell us in detail how you have your end points registering on clusters, as well as how you have your DNS configured?  Do you use SRV, alternate records?

  The VCS Cluster Deployment Guide, annex 5 goes on how set up your points of termination for you join the cluster and the different methods to do so.  Appendix 6 covers the SRV records.

• creation of structures: state machine with controls

  Hello, I wonder if someone can help me with something. I have a sequence, followed by the event structure / while loop.

  someone can help me. I want to create a STATE MACHINE.

  Here's a basic outline of the current structure, I. and this is what I want it to be. I wonder if its possible and how.

  I'm using labview 7.0.

  Thank you

  

  This is what I want?

  

  I looked at your Executive VI.  I don't have an easy way to save in LV 7 now so I'll try to describe in words how I would approach this mess.

  I think it can be done with two loops, a structure of the event, a case structure and not global or local variables.  In fact, there is probably some small business structures and lines inside some of the case, but nothing like as layers of ~ 12 nesting, you're struggling now.

  Look at the design model of producer/consumer (events) as a starting point.

  The loop of producer (event loop) will have the structure of the event.  It will be a case for each control that requires immediate action.  Those that I could identify: get telemetry, side, open Journal printing, abandon, press tank Mode (?) Temp tank (?), Scan, Stop, wait, Step (?) unique, continue and Execute. Most of the buttons must be set on the mechanical action of locking and placed terminals in the case of the event appropriate. So no local population is necessary to reset them.  Those with (?) have no event.  You can have a case of timeout to display Date and time, eliminating which (painful to my eyes) loop.  I don't know about the other stuff in the case of a timeout, but most likely, it is up to the other loop.  If the room 1, 2,... buttons change during trips, they may also need event.  Inside of each event is exactly one element: the Enqueue function.  Create an enum command and make it a typedef. Enqueue this enum value. The queue will be read in the loop of consumer where all the action happens.

  The consumer is your state machine. It has a Dequeue function to get a new order for the structure of the event.  It has several shift registers to transfer data from one case to the other.  These removes your global and local variables.  I'd shift for each of the following registers: the State (typedef enum), cluster of error, temperature (table), pressure (table), results (table), Stat results (table grapes) and a big cluster Indicators_Flags (typedef).  The cluster Indicators_Flags everything that is in the cluster you initialize in the black image sequence (and then never reuse) would have more all indicators except the berries in Maj separate records as well as all your globals and no status indicator, you might need.

  The structure of matter is the heart of the state machine.  All shift registers through it.  It will be the case for what the program does.  Everything in this black initialization setting in about 15 cases of Init.  The while loop to the right of the boot image goes away, but the case inside to become some of the cases of the state machine.  Chassis temperature cycling code goes into 1-3 cases. Mode code pump and read the pressure of your case of timeout event are 1-3 cases.  Code of telemetry: 2 cases.  Print the Page before: 1 case.  Excel code.  Abandonment of code.  Temperature and pressure cycling code of main program: 5-20 cases.  Graphics, record in file: more cases.  Break: 1-2 cases.

  I would like to make a list on paper anyway, you think that you may need and allows to create a typedef enum to control cases.  By making a typedef, it is easy to change without running all over the code looking for the constant in all cases of change.  Enum names will appear on the structure of matter as strings.  Create the loop, shift registers and the structure of the case.  Moving is part of both the original thread can duplicate the case until you have a case for each value in the enumeration of the State.  (Do not use the case of the mark for each value option because it will empty cases that you will then need to wire through.)

  Then copy code from various places in your existing code in the case in the new VI.  Try to avoid copying inhabitants that it will create new controls.  Name bundle to get data in and out of the big bend cluster registry and use ungroup by name.  This provides a free documentation of the data used.

  Check in a month when you have other problems. This will not be a quick fix.  But it will be useful to have a program that works and is easy to manage.

• Upgrade of VCS 6.1 to 7.2

  I plan go my VCS control and version 6.1 to 7.2 highway.

  Do I need a license to upgrade to make it work?  Also will be the keys different option still installed after the upgrade?

  Hi Ben,

  Yes, you need a software license key separated for the upgrade to the 6.1 to 7.2.

  You can get the license key by writing to [email protected] / * / and provide the serial number of the boxes of VCS.

  Also note the software that you download from the site of cisco, when you perform the upgrade. There are both encrypted and unencrypted version.

  then download the software you paid for

  Also, please follow the procedure to upgrade from vcs in the VCS cluster guide as when you take the vcs on x6.1 backup, you need to run the sequence of commands before doing the backup.

  mkdir/tandberg/persist/oti

  mkdir/tandberg/persist/management

  keys opiton would remain after the upgrade. However please note the same or take screen shot before that you were going to upgrade.

  see you soon
