Deployment Best Practices

Keep the following guidelines in mind when deploying Cisco Prime DCNM:

- Database

- Deploy an Oracle database on a separate server from the Cisco DCNM application server.

- Deploy an Oracle database when managing production or mission-critical environments.

- If you plan to use an Oracle 11g or Oracle 12c database, configure the Oracle database as follows:

- Increase the number of sessions and processes to 150 each from the default of 50.

- Increase the number of open cursors to 1000 from the default of 300.

- We recommend that you deploy Oracle11g or Oracle 12c for mission-critical production environments.

Note

The password for the database expires after 180 days.

You must change the default setting by performing the following steps:

1. Log in to the Oracle database.

2. Enter the commands, as shown in this example:

SQL> GRANT CONNECT,RESOURCE,UNLIMITED TABLESPACE TO username IDENTIFIED by password;
Grant succeeded.
SQL> select username,password from dba_users where username=’username’;
SQL> ALTER PROFILE DEFAULT LIMIT
2 FAILED_LOG_ATTEMPTS UNLIMITED
3 PASSWORD_LIFE_TIME UNLIMITED;
Profile altered.
SQL> EXIT

- Network Time Protocol

- We recommend that the Cisco Prime DCNM server run the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to synchronize its clock with those of the managed devices.

- General Guidelines

- Do not deploy Cisco Prime DCNM when network latency is more then 50 ms from the switch management subnet to the Cisco Prime DCNM server and Cisco Prime DCNM database.

- Deploy Cisco Prime DCNM on high-performance tier storage (2 to 4 ms response time).

- Create users with the same password digest and encryption algorithm in the device (for example, Digest, MD5) and encryption algorithm (for example, DES). Cisco Prime DCNM will not authenticate the devices with different digest and encryption passwords.

- Deploy Cisco Prime DCNM-SAN in a federation configuration when either of the following conditions is met:

- The switch count exceeds 150 switches

- The port count exceeds 15,000 connected ports for every management server

- Windows Operating System

- During the initial installation, disable all security and antivirus tools that are running on your Windows servers.

- Do not run any other management applications on the Cisco Prime DCNM server or the Cisco Prime DCNM database server.

- Virtual Machines

- When Cisco Prime DCNM is deployed as a virtual machine, do not share CPU and memory resources with other virtual machines on the virtual host, and the data store with other virtual machines.

- CPU and memory resource must be reserved for virtual machines.

The BST allows partners and customers to search for software bugs based on product, release, and keyword, and aggregates key data, such as bug details, product, and version. The tool has a provision to filter bugs based on credentials to provide external and internal bug views for the search input.

To view the details of a caveat whose ID you do not have, perform the following procedure:
