In Cisco Secure there is a section to configure what to do if the service stops, is not responsive or hangs. Based on these conditions you can have the service restart etc. I believe the menu path is Systems Configuration then click the ACS Service Management link and you will be presented with options on checking the logging in and service handling options. In the ACS Service Management section there is a sub section with a drop down box to test the login process every x minutes. Based on the test outcome you can select the test to respond in the following ways: Restart All Restart Radius/Tacacs Reboot No action
There is an event logging subsection also to add your email address and SMTP server to send you an email when issues occur. I remember using even earlier options of Cisco Secure and this option was not available. The service would hang periodically and the only way to restart it was in NT or 2k services utility. I believe Cisco added this option as a kludge to get around customer having to do it manually whenever Cisco Secure would lock up. It works. I do not know if they fixed those types of problems in 3.X or the Service Management link is still included.. /JS Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=55117&t=55114 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
