Fixing Insufficient Color Problems

To fix the “… insufficient colors available for Cisco EMF Manager” problem, see the procedure in the “Configuring Reflection X Version 7.20 to Support Cisco EMF Color Usage” section in the Cisco Element Management Framework Installation and Administration Guide at

Task 12. Synchronize Time

After installing Cisco MNM, you should synchronize the time configured for the Cisco MGC, Cisco MNM, and the Billing and Measurement Server (BAMS). To ensure that the Cisco MNM records are correct, these components should all be configured to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). For instructions on setting the time for these components, see both the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Release 9 Installation and Configuration Guide at

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/vcallcon/ps2027/prod_installation_guides_list.html

and the Cisco Billing and Measurements Server User’s Guide for your BAMS server at

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/voicesw/ps522/products_user_guide_list.html.

Task 13: Configure Network Devices to Forward Alarms

The final task in readying Cisco MNM for network management is to configure the devices in the network so that they send alarm information to Cisco MNM. For more information, see Chapter 3 in the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Node Manager User Guide at

Upgrading from Previous Cisco MNM Releases

When you upgrade from a previous release of Cisco MNM, the installation updates the content but leaves your existing data intact (for example, network data and user access settings). You do not need to uninstall your previous release before upgrading.

When upgrading CiscoView, upgrade according to the LMS 3.1 installation guide. CiscoView 6.1.8 requires more disk space than the previous release, and if the space is insufficient, CiscoView 6.1.8 can be installed on another machine. If you install CiscoView 6.1.8 on another machine, use the following command to reconfigure CiscoView server's IP address: # <CEMF_ROOT>/bin/cmnmupdateCVip -i

<CiscoView_NewServer_IP>.

Although the upgrade option preserves your data, we recommend that you perform a backup before upgrading, as described in the “Uninstalling Cisco MNM” section on page 2-23.

Use the following steps to upgrade from a previous Cisco MNM release:
