Migrate one CMA from a Provider-1 R70.40 to another Provider-1

Posted on November 8, 2011

1



I wanted to do some tests with only one CMA of our live Provider1 in Lab, that is why I tried to migrate just one piece. I could do a complete mds backup and restore in Lab, but if the provider has a lot of CMAs then it requires in Lab the same Hardware or it will be really really slow.. The following process is actually a working solution for CMA backup and restore on the same Provider1 if there is no global policy.

Steps not part of this post:

– Create Provider-1 Administrators
– Redefine and reassign them to customers after the upgrade.
– Provider-1 SmartConsole Clients
– Redefine and reassign to customers after the upgrade.
– Policy assignment to customers
– Assign policies to customers after the upgrade.
– Global Communities statuses.
– execute the command: mdsenv; fwm mds rebuild_global_communities_status all

1. Get the export tools

# cd /var/opt/export_tool/
# ftp 10.10.10.64

# tar -xzvf SPLAT_p1_upgrade_tools.tgz

2. Export the global properties on source Management

If you analyse the script you can see that it copies the content of the /opt/CPmds-R70/conf/ folder to a temp folder and archive it to the destination folder. See the part from the export_database script:

# cd /var/opt/export_tool/export_tools/
# less ./export_database.sh
...
# the database structure will be created under $FWDIR/tmp/export_db
createTempDirStructure()
{
# Target directory structure is being built in $FWDIR/tmp which is always located on /var (for MDS, CMA and SMC)
# where we expect to have enough space
tempDir=$FWDIR/tmp
targetDirBaseName=export_db
targetDir=$tempDir/$targetDirBaseName
if [ -d $targetDir ]; then
$RM -rf $targetDir
fi
$MKDIR $targetDir# copy FWDIR files
$MKDIR $targetDir/conf
$CPR $FWDIR/conf/* $targetDir/conf 1>>$debugFile 2>&1
# includes lists, vpe, crls, cpsc, ahclientd, SMC_Files (handled specifically in migrate_assist)
# and local.arp (handled in SMC export)
…

If we start the script with bash -x ,we can see what it exactly does:

# cd /var/opt/export_tool/export_tools/
# bash -x ./export_database.sh /var/log/CMA_EXPORT –g

+ tempDir=/opt/CPmds-R70/tmp
+ targetDirBaseName=export_db
+ targetDir=/opt/CPmds-R70/tmp/export_db
+ '[' -d /opt/CPmds-R70/tmp/export_db ']'
+ /bin/mkdir /opt/CPmds-R70/tmp/export_db
+ /bin/mkdir /opt/CPmds-R70/tmp/export_db/conf
+ /bin/cp -rL /opt/CPmds-R70/conf/CPMIFtpExCache.C ..list of files is trimmed.. /opt/CPmds-R70/conf/wf_tagged_objects.C /opt/CPmds-R70/tmp/export_db/conf

Lets export the global policies:

# mkdir /var/log/CMA_EXPORT
# cd /var/log/CMA_EXPORT
# pwd
/var/log/CMA_EXPORT
# cd /var/opt/export_tool/export_tools/
# ./export_database.sh /var/log/CMA_EXPORT -g
Your source management should NOT be running while you export its database
because unsaved changes could be lost or log file corruption may occur.
Do you want to continue [yes/no] ? yes

Comment:Even if with mdsstop command we stop the mds and the cmas it give us this message… “Your source management should NOT be running while you export its database because unsaved changes could be lost or log file corruption may occur.” What should I stop now??

3.  Export the cma on source MDS

If you analyze the script you can see that it copies the content of /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1/conf/ folder to a temp folder and archive it to the destination folder. If we start the script with bash -x,we can see what ti exactly does:

# cd /var/opt/export_tool/export_tools/
# bash -x ./export_database.sh /var/log/CMA_EXPORT -c mycma01
…
+ tempDir=/opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1/tmp
+ targetDirBaseName=export_db
+ targetDir=/opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1/tmp/export_db
+ '[' -d /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1/tmp/export_db ']'
+ /bin/mkdir /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1/tmp/export_db
+ /bin/mkdir /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1/tmp/export_db/conf
+ /bin/cp -rL /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1/conf/AMT.conf ..list of files is trimmed.. /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1/conf/wf_tagged_objects.C /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1/tmp/export_db/conf

Lets export the cma policies

# cd /var/opt/export_tool/export_tools/
# ./export_database.sh /var/log/CMA_EXPORT -c mycma01

Your source management should NOT be running while you export its database
because unsaved changes could be lost or log file corruption may occur.
Do you want to continue [yes/no] ? yes
Do you wish to export the log database [yes/no] ? no

Comments:What are the differences between a component and a plugin and a package and a blade? :-)

Create the customer and the cma

Without starting the cma. See Problem 3 if you start it.

If the CMA contains higher LIBSW version for th VPN-1 or UTM-1 Edge-s, than this must first upgraded to the version the source CMA has!

Here is the link for that:

https://supportcenter.checkpoint.com/supportcenter/portal?eventSubmit_doGoviewsolutiondetails=&solutionid=sk31448

an article in case you install it for more CMA within the same Provider1

# mdscmd addcustomer mycustomer01 -n mycma01 -i 10.10.10.13
mycustomer01 was updated successfully
mycma01_._._mycustomer01 was updated successfully
#

Migrate the configuration

With scp upload the tgz file to the target CMA to /var/tmp.

# cma_migrate /var/tmp/exported_mycma01.28Oct2011-153404.tgz /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1

Are you sure you want to migrate the management at /var/tmp/exported_mycma01.28Oct2011-153404.tgz
into the CMA /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1 [yes/no] ? yes

CMA Migration Problems

1. Problem 1. – Plug-in Mismatch Detector issue

After issuing the cma_migrate command the Plug-in Mismatch Detector finds an error and stops the migration process:

======================================================================
>>> Executing Plug-in Mismatch Detector

Error:   Some plug-ins exist only on the source database. Plug-In Mismatch.

Error:   The source database and the target CMA do not share the same plug-ins
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Plug-in Mismatch Detector completed with errors.

======================================================================

1.1. Trial1 – copy the source CMAs HKLM_registry.data file

What is the HKLM_registry.data?

The official Checkpoint documentation mentions not too much about this file. In the “architecture and Processes” Section of the R70 Provider-1 pdf we can read the followings:

Check Point Registry

Information related to the installation and versioning issues of different components that is requested by different Check Point processes, is centrally stored in a registry file. The registry is stored in $CPDIR/registry/HKLM_registry.data (where the value of CPDIR environment variable is different whether you are in the MDS environment or whether you are in different CMA environments. This means that there are separate registry files for the MDS and for the CMAs. ”

Or there is an old article for this file: skI3336

Path to the file: $CPDIR/registry/HKLM_registry.data

You can modify this file with the ckp_regedit command. There is an article about a special case where it was required to use it. Here is the link: http://3-4-5-6.blogspot.com/search/label/Checkpoint%20registry%20moification

As this file contains informations about the plugins I copy the source CMAs HKLM_registry.datafile to the target CMA and try the cma_migrate again, but make a backup of it first.

# cp /var/opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPshrd-R70/registry/HKLM_registry.data /var/opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPshrd-R70/registry/HKLM_registry.data_backup
# cp /var/tmp/export_db/registry/HKLM_registry.data /var/opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPshrd-R70/registry/
#

Result:

1.1.2 Trial2 – troubleshoot sofaware management process

Actually this log message I got only if I tried to migrate a CMA with Edge configurations but for CMAs without Edge Firewall configuration I haven’t seen such error messages (But another error message was there and the fwm process was down). The error message I see now in fwm.elg was the following:

15000: Can't contact database'

And I saw that the sms process could not start, the watchdog tried to start it without no success. Expected processes:

/bin/sh /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1/bin/smsstart_wd

But experienced:

/bin/sh /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1/bin/smsstart_wd
 \_sleep 5

I googled first with the error message and found actually nothing useful, just an SK – sk33168 and an unresolved issue on cpug forum. I tried troubleshooting the sms process according to the Understanding_SofaWare_Management_Modules.pdf:

1. Edit $FWDIR/conf/sofaware/SWManagementServer.ini with vi editor

2. Change in line containing LogPolicy1 the value Info to Debug

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
LogPolicy1="console://localhost/severity=Info"
LogPolicy2="debugger://localhost/severity=Debug"
LogPolicy3="local://localhost/severity=Critical & origintype=SMS"

3. Restart the sms process

# smsstop && smsstart

4. Replicate the problem and watch for console output.

Result:

Does not give more info.

1.1.3 Trial3 – missing folders in target cma

The source CMA has more plugins/packages – or whatever it is called – installed as the target CMA or at least I see more folders. Source CMA:

1.2 Trial4 – analyze the cma_migrate script

The cma_migrate script can be debugged with the bash -x /opt/CPmds-R70/scripts/cma_migrate command. “bash -x” displays commands and their arguments as they are executed. Another way would be to use trap. See link for more information about trap and script debugging in Linux: http://linuxtopia.org/online_books/advanced_bash_scripting_guide/debugging.html

Suspicious called scripts, commands:

/opt/CPmds-R70/system/pre_upgrade/mds_pre_upgrade.sh – This calls the so called PUs (Upgrade checking processes).

In the cma_migrate script (in pre_migrate_tests function) we can change the way the mds_pre_upgrade.sh will be called:

pre_migrate_tests()

        $RM $pulog
    fi
    LOG_FILE=$pulog
    export LOG_FILE
    bash -x ./mds_pre_upgrade.sh
    case $? in
        $PU_EXIT_VALUE_OK)
            EchoNLog "Pre-migrate verification ended successfully."

And the first error message comes at the PU00030:

...
+ /bin/echo -e '>>> Executing Plug-in Mismatch Detector'
>>> Executing Plug-in Mismatch Detector
++ /bin/basename /opt/CPmds-R70/system/pre_upgrade/PU00030

+ '[' -f /opt/CPInstLog/pre_upgrade/pu.log.PU00030 ']'
+ /bin/cat /opt/CPInstLog/pre_upgrade/pu.log.PU00030
...

The Plug-in Mismatch Detector is here in execute file:

# cd /opt/CPmds-R70/system/pre_upgrade/PU00030/
# ls -alt
total 28
drwxr-x---   18 root     bin          4096 Oct 31 22:28 ..

-rwxr-x---    1 root     bin          9325 Jul 19  2010 execute

It checks with the following command the installed products on source CMA and the target CMA:

# mdsenv < source CMA>
# cpprod_util CPPROD_GetInstalledPlugIns
PIeventiaR70
PIprovR70
PIsfw
PIworkflowR70
#

cpprod_util works with $CPDIR/registry/HKLM_registry.data file that contains the plugin list as well and it find some differencies in the number of plugins between the source and the target CMA. Lets see it if we find something with the following steps:

1. Delete and create the Customer and CMA again

2. Check the plugin list and compare it with the live system

Result: The number of plugins in a new CMA is always 0, but on the live system it is4.

Check what sees the /opt/CPmds-R70/system/pre_upgrade/PU00030/execute:

Add the followings Control Points to the script:

  #Remove Plug-ins that are already merged into the current version.
  MERGED_PLUGINS="PIvsx PIutm1 PIprov PIconR66-R65 PIconnectra"
  # TODO: PIvoip is yet to be merged
  #After FLO EA PIconnectra must also be added to the list.
  for extra_plugin in $MERGED_PLUGINS
  do
        $GREP -v $extra_plugin /tmp/orig_plugins.txt > /tmp/tmp_plugins.txt
        $CP /tmp/tmp_plugins.txt /tmp/orig_plugins.txt
  done

  NUM_TARGET_PLUGINS=`cat /tmp/target_plugins.txt | wc -l`
  NUM_SOURCE_PLUGINS=`cat /tmp/orig_plugins.txt | wc -l`

 echo "Here is my debug part 1."
 echo "target plugins"
 cat /tmp/target_plugins.txt
 echo "orig plugins"
 cat /tmp/orig_plugins.txt

  if [ $NUM_TARGET_PLUGINS -eq 0 -a $NUM_SOURCE_PLUGINS -eq 0 ] ; then
    ret_val=$res_ok
  else

        if [ $NUM_TARGET_PLUGINS -ne $NUM_SOURCE_PLUGINS ] ; then
            ret_val=$res_plugin_mismatch
        else

And in the output we see that the target CMA has no plugins but the source has.but if you create a CMA but do not start it then it will never show with the cpprod_util any plugin, it is maybe a BUG?

++ /bin/basename /opt/CPmds-R70/system/pre_upgrade/PU00030
+ cur_puv_id=PU00030
+ cur_log_file=/opt/CPInstLog/pre_upgrade/pu.log.PU00030

+ env LOG_FILE=/opt/CPInstLog/pre_upgrade/pu.log.PU00030 /opt/CPmds-R70/system/pre_upgrade/PU00030/execute
Here is my debug part 1.
target plugins
orig plugins
PIeventiaR70
PIsfw
PIworkflowR70

Error:   Some plug-ins exist only on the source database. Plug-In Mismatch.

Error:   The source database and the target CMA do not share the same plug-ins
+ exitCode=20

As a workaround disable the Plug-in Mismatch Detector and try it again:

# cd /opt/CPmds-R70/system/pre_upgrade/
# mv PU00030 /var/tmp
# cma_migrate /var/tmp/exported_mycma01.28Oct2011-153404.tgz /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1

Migration completed.

The Migration is ready! One more step and we are ready. Update in Provider1 GUI your Customer:

After activating R70.40 Provider1 restarts the Customer and sets the plugins. Some examples for the processes are here:
PIprovR70 plugin:

/opt/CPmds-R70/bin/fwm mds
  \_ /bin/sh /opt/CPmds-R70/scripts/plugin_cmd activate PIprovR70 /tmp/plugin_cmd.cmas.B768CF
      \_ /opt/CPPIprov-R70/bin/uacRunner -p PIprovR70 -install
          \_ /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma02/CPsuite-R70/fw1/bin/cpdb plugin_install --src_type legacy --no-override --default_path pluginDefault

.

/opt/CPmds-R70/bin/fwm mds
  \_ /bin/sh /opt/CPmds-R70/scripts/plugin_cmd activate PIprovR70 /tmp/plugin_cmd.cmas.B768CF
      \_ /bin/sh /opt/CPmds-R70/scripts/plugin_cmd activate PIprovR70 /tmp/plugin_cmd.cmas.B7
          \_ /bin/echo -e /opt/CPmds-R70/lib:/opt/CPmds-R70/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/opt:/usr/etc:/

PIsfw plugin:

/opt/CPmds-R70/bin/fwm mds
  \_ /bin/sh /opt/CPmds-R70/scripts/plugin_cmd activate PIsfw /tmp/plugin_cmd.cmas.B768CFAA-0
      \_ /opt/CPPIsg80-R70/bin/uacRunner -p PIsfw -install
          \_ /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma02/CPshrd-R70/bin/CPRegSvr /f /opt/CPm

.

/opt/CPmds-R70/bin/fwm mds
  \_ /bin/sh /opt/CPmds-R70/scripts/plugin_cmd activate PIsfw /tmp/plugin_cmd.cmas.B768CFAA-0
      \_ /opt/CPPIsg80-R70/bin/uacRunner -p PIsfw -install
          \_ /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma02/CPsuite-R70/fw1/bin/cpdb plugin_ins

PIworkflowR70 plugin:

/opt/CPmds-R70/bin/fwm mds
  \_ /bin/sh /opt/CPmds-R70/scripts/plugin_cmd activate PIworkflowR70 /tmp/plugin_cmd.cmas.B7
      \_ /opt/CPPIworkflowR70-R70/bin/uacRunner -p PIworkflowR70 -install
          \_ /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma02/CPsuite-R70/fw1/bin/cpdb plugin_ins

2. Problem 3. – If you start the CMA before migration

# cma_migrate /var/tmp/exported_mycma02.31Oct2011-205249.tgz /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1

Are you sure you want to migrate the management at /var/tmp/exported_mycma02.31Oct2011-205249.tgz
into the CMA /opt/CPmds-R70/customers/mycma01/CPsuite-R70/fw1 [yes/no] ? yes

Verifying data before importing. Please wait ...

         The migrate operation can take place only on a CMA which
         has not been started yet.

Migration not completed.

That was  my first CMA migration, it can be that something is not clearly documented or done :-)
