Chapter 1 Using the Cisco Multicast Manager
Application Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Apache Log Files
The Apache log files are located in
/opt/RMSMMT/httpd_perl/logs
. When troubleshooting the
application, tailing the
error_log
file (
tail –f error_log
) will provide useful information.
Additional application information can be logged to the
error_log file
by adding the line debug=1
to the
<domain>.mm.conf
file mentioned above.
Note
Turning on this debug option will generate a large amount of data and should only be used for short
periods in conjunction with working RMS tech support.
Databases
The database files used by CMM are located in
/opt/RMSMMT/mmtsys/db
. The topology database
created by running discovery is
<domain>.topo.db
. The S,G cache, also created during discovery
is
<domain>.sg.db
. The cache file is recreated when the polling daemon is running and polling the
RPs. The lock files associated with each db file should never be manually removed. Removing these files
could corrupt the databases.
Each domain also has a
/opt/RMSMMT/mmtsys/db/<domain>
directory associated with it. This
directory contains the IOS versions (
iosver.db
) for the domain. Multicast forwarding tree baselines
are also saved in this directory.
The IP address database (
ipaddr.db
) is also located in opt/RMSMMT/mmtsys/db.
Device Configurations
If TFTP is enabled on the server, and the SNMP read-write community string is supplied, then the
application can download router configurations. The configurations are initially stored in the
/tftpboot
directory. If a configuration is saved from the “Display Router Config” screen, then a
directory will be created (
/opt/RMSMMT/configs/<device>
) to hold the saved configurations.
Historical Data
PPS data collected by the polling daemon for S,G threshold polling and Layer 2 switch port polling, are
stored in RRD files in
/opt/RMSMMT/mmtsys/data
.
Standard Multicast MIBs
Certain versions of IOS now support the standard based IPMROUTE and IGMP MIBs. The
STDMIBS
file in the
/opt/RMSMMT/mmtsys/db
controls which IOS versions the standard MIBs will be used
for. The file currently contains the following entries:
# This file contains versions of IOS that use the standard multicast MIBs.
12.3.*.*
12.2.*.T*
12.2.*.BC*
