Using ACE Appliance Device Manager
Troubleshooting Tools
Use the following diagnostic tools to help troubleshoot ACE Appliance Device Manager problems:
Generating a Diagnostic Package, page 16-1
Manipulating ACE Appliance Files, page 16-6
Checking the ACE Appliance DM GUI Status, page 16-10
Note When you use the ACE CLI to configure named objects (such as a real server, virtual server, parameter
map, class map, health probe, and so on), consider that the Device Manager (DM) supports object names
with an alphanumeric string of 1 to 64 characters, which can include the following special characters:
underscore (_), hyphen (-), dot (.), and asterisk (*). Spaces are not allowed.
If you use the ACE CLI to configure a named object with special characters that the DM does not
support, you may not be able to configure the ACE using DM.
Generating a Diagnostic Package
Diagnosing network or system-related problems that happen in real time can consume a considerable
amount of time and lead to frustration even for a system expert. When a critical problem occurs within
the ACE Appliance Device Manager system, you can use the troubleshooting and diagnostics tools
provided by the Lifeline feature to report ACE Appliance Device Manager data to the Cisco support line
and generate a diagnostic package. Support engineers and developers can subsequently reconstruct your
system and debug the problem using the information captured in the Lifeline package.
Note To troubleshoot problems related to the ACE appliance, use the debug and show commands supported
in the command line interface (CLI). For a list of the ACE appliance show commands, see the Command
Reference, Cisco ACE Application Control Engine. For more detailed descriptions of hardware and
software show commands, see the Administration Guide, Cisco ACE Application Control Engine.
Lifeline takes a snapshot of the running system configuration, status, buffers, logs, thread dumps,
messages, and so on. It gathers a period of historical network and system events that have been recorded
directly preceding the event. If required, Lifeline can back up and package the ACE Appliance Device
Manager database or a file subdirectory or trace and package a period of traffic flow packets for a
specified virtual context.
