Backup HP V1910 (Legacy 3Com 2928) switch

$

0

I am trying to backup this switch using the Device.CLI.Send activity.  Here is what I am trying to send:

Login authentication 

Username:xxxx
Password:
<Raben Tire IT Switch>_cmdline-mode on
All commands can be displayed and executed. Continue? [Y/N]y

 

Please input password:******
Warning: Now you enter an all-command mode for developer's testing, some commands may affect operation by wrong use, please carefully use it with our engineer's direction.
<Raben Tire IT Switch>backup startup-configuration to 10.21.1.13
Backup next startup-configuration file to 10.21.1.13, please wait...
finished!
<Raben Tire IT Switch>quit

I get to the input of the password and get a syntax error.  Since I get a syntax error there, the rest of the script never runs, it also gets a syntax error.  How do I input a password at that point?

Thanks,
Jeff

 

 


TFTP backup failing on Cisco IOS switches

$

Hi,

 

I am using Kiwi cattools to backup the vLan.dat from several Cisco IOS switches. On about 50% of those switches, the backup fails. In the email I get I only see "Aborting command entry due to command error". As the switches are all configured more or less identically and I cannot find anything that would separate the failing switches from the successful switches (switch type, IOS version, location etc)  I wonder where I could start my troubleshooting.

The failing switches have one thing in common: they are all located overseas, but on the other hand I have one overseas switch giving me perfect output.

Any help is much appreciated!

Creating Custom Devices [HPE StoreFabric / Mellanox]

$
0
0

Hi All

 

I'm trying to have CatTools to backup my HPE StoreFabric SN2010M storage switches.

These switches are rebranded Mellanox switches

 

So far my first issue was that the enable mode on the CLI was with a space after the "#" mark

I've managed to get this resolved using:

Private Const DEVICE_PRIVILEGEDPROMPT = "# "

in the created script for this device type.

 

I have successfully managed to have CatTools save a copy of the running config, BUT, and this is the tricky part for me:

After each 24 lines, the switch sends:

"lines 1-23"

which in my stored config file looks like:

" [7mlines 1-23  [m [K

[K   "

 

This reoccurs after each normal CLI screen throughout the entire config file.

I'm not at all a script guy - so can somebody give me a clue on how to ignore each 24th line or something similiar, so the running config is cleaned for these annoying lines?

Did any get Cattools 3.11 working with SonicWALL backups?

I have handful of SonicWALLs in field I need to do scheduled backup. However from what I can tell, the Cattools 3.11 still can not backup SonicWALL properly. Versions of the running SonicOS are 5.9 and newer.

 

Maybe it was my configuration issue...Here below are some screenshots.

Other tabs are defaults and I did not use Variants if that matters.

Issue on version report new Cisco cat9k

Hi there,

 

I have an issue running Version Table report on the new Cisco Catalyst 9k switches.

The error I get is "Client Script error: Invalid procedure call or argument:  'Mid' on line: 4551

 

Is this something that can be fixed?

Support for IOS XE? config is failing to be captured

$
0
0

I just got the product installed and my first device configured but its failing to capture the configuration (it's an ASR running IOS-XE).

 

I have 1 activity configured: Device.Backup.Running Config

For the device, I configured the type as Cisco.Router.noenable. I initially tried Cisco.Router.General but it kept complaining about "Enable password prompt returned" which would be incorrect since there is no enable option on this router.  I don't get that error with Cisco.Router.noenable but it fails to capture the configuration.

 

The config file shows this:

 

 

show config
                     ^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

This is odd because I can issue the command manually and it works.  Seems like there are some unprinted character after "config", given that a typical "invalid input" marker is spaced appropriately to point to the first invalid input character and there are 20 spaces before the ^ in the output.

 

 

 

The activity log show this when using noenable :

Is there a chance that CatTools could retrieve the config.ini of a APC SmartUPS AP9617/AP9630 Network Management Card using FTP? It would be great if someone of the development team could have a look at it.

Kiwi Cattools 3.9.1 config backup with Cisco

$
0
0

Dear community,

 

I am currently trying to configure Kiwi Cattools v3.9.1 (no Solarwinds support any more) to back up our Cisco devices' running config. The backup from some devices work without problem, from some other devices Kiwi cannot back up the config (routers and switches).

The network settings (routing, firewall rules etc) are correct because we use an additional type of activity (Device.CLI.Send.commands) with the affected devices which works properly.

When running a Device.Backup.Runinng.Config activity against the devices, two things happen:

 

- The activity finishes with the following error for all the specified devices and the config is not backed up at all:

     "Unable to log to Debug file. Error: Bad file name or number"

 

- The activity finishes without error, Kiwi confirms the backup with "Backup Running Config results: OK" for all specified devices, I see in the mail queue that the e-mail has been queued and contains an attachment (HTML report about the activity's result) but not all the configs have been backed up locally into the specified folder (C:/Shares) and the e-mail does not list all the devices as backed up. After enabling debug mode, I can see that Kiwi logs in to all the devices, backs up the configs and disconnects from the devices successfully, so it seems that the activity has been finished successfully but the config files from some of the devices are missing at the end.

At this point, I received the following error message for these devices:

 

     "Log to file error: Bad file name or numberC:\Program Files(x86)\CatTools3\ClientTemp\RunningConfig.[device_name].temp.txt"                         note: device_name is hidden in the message

 

The missing files are from the same devices until I change the name of the problematic devices in Kiwi. When that happens, Kiwi does not drop the previous error message any more for the device but does not bac kup the config at all.

 

I tried to change the hostname on one problematic device as well but it did not help -> no backed up config.

The Kiwi service has also been restarted, it did not help.

 

By now I could not find any solution on the web nor any reference to any Cattools bug.

 

Do you have any idea? Maybe some bug in v3.9.1? Do you know any solution?

 

Thank you for the help in advance.

Config Backups of Cisco Small Business SG200-50

Hi

 

Has anyone been able to get an automated backup of the 200 series small business switches. I noted that there seems to be scripts for the SG300 but not the SG200.

 

Is there a reason that the SG200's don't work with Cattools?

 

Thanks

Having trouble backing up Fortigate 60D.

 

Have tried to follow steps here:

But to no avail. Am I supposed to use this with variations? I have found that the show is not the same as show full-configurations.

 

Can someone direct me in how to properly back these up?

Backup Extreme Summit switches using TFTP commands

Hi, We have just installed some extreme switches and currently
it is backing up using model X450-24X running the show configuration command.

We are wanting to run the following below command and wondered whether this
would be possible if we had a variations file and running a TFTP server on
server where cat tools is installed.

 

tftp put x.x.x.x vr "VR-Default"primary.cfg **Saved file name***.cfg

 

The above command makes it easier to restore configs if we were to have issues.

 

We tried running Device.Backup.TFTP activity but it currently only supports Cisco Devices.

 

 

Thanks

Did not receive expected response to command: show running-config

I have a question, I have 2 Cisco WiSM  (Cisco 6500 blade) that I am trying to use Cat tools to backup the config files on a regular schedule. I have run into the following error when trying to run the activity:  "Did not receive expected response to command: configshow" and then Cat tools disconnects from the switch. I used telnet to issue the show running-config command and what I noticed is right after the show running-config command is issued the switch prompts with: "Press Enter to continue or <CTRL-Z> to abort"  or "--More-- or (q)uit " and sits there until there is user intervension. How can I automate the CR to continue command so I can use Cattools to pull the configuration of these switches? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Any ideas on how to work around this?  The output from other Cisco equipment was in the format of the following:
