Cisco UCS Troubleshooting
How to resolve “Error while running VM security tool”, “Please perform re-stamping”, and other problems.
Cisco UCS Solution:
First, the login for UCSPE is config/config
Error while running VM security tool
When activating the VM for the Emulator in vmware Workstation 9 you receive “Error while running VM security tool” and “Please perform re-stamping”.
There are two resolution options:
A: Upgrade the VM to Workstation 8 compatibility.
B: Login with User config and Password: config and do a Factory Reset.
NOTE: Some people say it is fine when it uses DHCP, but shows this error when you change the IP address. If A and B don’t fix this for you, re-arrange your environment to allow the use of DHCP.
Java Issues
The UCS Emulator will not work with Java 7. You must install Java 6.
You must disable Java 7 from Control Panel->Java.
If disabling doesn’t work, then uninstall Java 7.
Possibly installing Java 6 first would help, but usually not worth trouble.
Login Error:
Java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out
Restart the UCSPE
