Hi David,
That is a known issue in the upgrade script:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/nac/appliance/release_notes/413/413rn.html#wp74736
You can delete all the agent reports from your CAM to expedite the
upgrade process (brings it down to the normal install time of ~5
minutes). Otherwise you can let it run, and the upgrade will eventually
complete. I believe it was timed at 90-100 minutes.

Happy New Year all,
Has anyone else attempted an upgrade from 4.0.4 to 4.1.3? How long did
it take? I’m pushing 90 minutes again (had to kill it yesterday and
reload/restore back to 4.0.4)… Seems excessively long to me. Since
Cisco’s upgrade screen output only tells me what just finished
(sorta), I have no idea what it’s working on.
If I ps ux in another ssh session, I see the upgrade command as well
as an sql data import command (some sql 4.0.4 -> 4.1.3 file I assume
it created earlier in the upgrade process. Both STAT S (Interruptible
sleep, waiting for another process to finish).
All I see on my screen is that the agent was successfully upgraded.
I’ve read the warning in the docs about the Agent Reports in the
database being “quite large”; But with Cisco talking about 30,000
records in the database being the limit, I assumed my measly 107
didn’t qualify as “quite large”. After it bombed yesterday, I assumed
this was the issue (that Cisco’s definition of “quite large” meant
greater than 1), and used their suggested workaround of deleting the
reports… I also assumed that it would now take it’s “upgrade window of
15 minutes per server”.
Since I now lost my morning window to upgrade its HA pair, I’m just
going to halt the primary, and start up the un-upgraded secondary.
Since I haven’t touched the CASs yet, this should just mean I’m not
running HA for the weekend. Hopefully this thing really finishes.
Thanks in advance for any ideas you may have!
