Issue/Introduction

After upgrading the NetOps Portal from version 3.7.14 or earlier, or if upgrading from 20.2.2 or earlier, to version 21.2.1, the Event Manager data source will not synchronize.

The Data Sources page also shows the Event Manager data source on the same version as prior to the upgrade.

In the (default path) /opt/CA/PerformanceCenter/EM/logs/EMService.log we see this error:

Environment

All supported DX NetOps Performance Management releases r21.2.1 and earlier that utilize the SsoEncryptionDecryptionKey values.

Cause

The upgrade fails to copy the SsoEncryptionDecryptionKey value to the Event Manager MySql em database.

Resolution

This is addressed via defect DE509973 which is resolved starting with the r21.2.2 NetOps release.

To resolve this issue in r21.2.1 without upgrading to a newer current release follow these steps.

NOTE: You will need the Netops Portal MySQL password to enter when prompted.

  1. Gather and compare the SsoEncryptionDecryptionKey value between the netqosportal and em databases.
    1. Connect to the MySql DB using (default path) this command. Enter the password when prompted.
      1. /opt/CA/MySql/bin/mysql -uroot -p
    2. Run the following to show the value for the netqosportal DB:
      1. select PropValue,Priority from netqosportal.performance_center_properties where PropName = 'SsoEncryptionDecryptionKey';
    3. Run the following to show the value for the em DB:
      1. select PropValue,Priority from em.performance_center_properties where PropName = 'SsoEncryptionDecryptionKey';
  2. The values at the highest Priority value shown should match.
    1. If the values do not match for the highest Priority value shown, continue with the remaining steps below to resolve the problem.
    2. IF the values do match for the highest Priority value shown, contact support for additional assistance.
  3. Stop the Event Manager service using the command:
    1. systemctl stop caperfcenter_eventmanager
  4. In the MySql prompt run the following to update the em database SsoEncryptionDecryptionKey value to match the netqosportal database value.
    1. replace into em.performance_center_properties values ('SsoEncryptionDecryptionKey',1,'<keyFrom_netqosportal_DB>','N',UNIX_TIMESTAMP());"
  5. Run the following in the MySql prompt to verify the value is updated and matches in both databases.
    1. Run the following to show the value for the netqosportal DB:
      1. select PropValue,Priority from netqosportal.performance_center_properties where PropName = 'SsoEncryptionDecryptionKey';
    2. Run the following to show the value for the em DB:
      1. select PropValue,Priority from em.performance_center_properties where PropName = 'SsoEncryptionDecryptionKey';
    3. Confirm the highest Priority value from both has a matching value.
  6. Start the Event Manager service using the command:
    1. systemctl start caperfcenter_eventmanager

Confirm the errors are gone from the logs and the Event Manager Data Source is again successfully syncing in the Portal web UI.

This is a sample of a working system. Note the highest Priority value for the netqosportal DB (0) has a value that matches the highest Priority value (1) from the em DB. If these did not match we'd update the em DB Priority value 1 to match the netqosportal DB Priority value 0 value.

Additional Information

This can also happen if a local override is set for "SsoEncryptionDecryptionKey". In that scenario you will see 2 values for each query.

In that scenario where normally netqosportal only has a value set for Priority 0 we'd see it set with a Priority 1 value as well.

If that is found use the (default path) /opt/CA/PerformanceCenter/SsoConfig tool to reset the value for the SingleSign-On SsoEncryptionDecriptionKey value.
