Trying to replicate from Master TACACS server to TACACS3 and started gettin this error:

07/14/2008 09:39:52 s0adcciscosec1 WARNING ACS 's0adcciscosec3' not replied to replication request - possibly short timeout or dead ....

Time out is set for 10 mins on AISCISCOSEC3. We have two other servers in replication with the Master and they are working fine.

Randy,

Please make sure that replication is setup correctly.

1) Make sure that you are not replicating over NAT. Replication over NAT does not work because the IP is used as part of the server authentication

2) Next, check to make sure that you are not sending or receiving the distribution table. On the primary server, the distribution table should not be checked in the send list, and on the secondary, the distribution table should not be checked for receive.

3) Then I would like you to check in the secondary server's partner list, to make sure that the primary is not listed. You should not enter the primary server into the partner list on the secondary server. However, the primary server should have all secondary servers listed in its partner list.

4) Ensure that the secondary server has it's replication scheduling set to "manual".

5) Please verify that your servers are all running exactly the same ACS version and build.

6) Also let me know if we have any firewall in between two acs servers.

Regards,

~JG

In response to you prev post:

1. No NAT being used.

2. Unchecked the Distribution List boxes on both servers(Primary and Secondary), still failed.

3.Running same versions:

Master: Release 4.1(1) Build 23 Patch 4

Secondary :Release 4.1(1) Build 23 Patch 4

4. No firewalls

The secondary is set to manual replication

6) Also let me know if we have any firewall in between two acs servers.

No firewalls between servers

Is it acs appliance or acs windows ?

ACS Windows 2003 Server Service Pak 2

Rice,

Okay, then that must be running on multiple processors.

Please note that replication will not work incase your server is running on more then two processors.

Please check this bug id CSCsk12033

We have two other Secondary Servers that are replicating fine and They are Windows 2003 Server SP1

Randy,

SP is not a issue. How many processors we have on non working acs. You can check it by Start--->Run--->msinfo32 ..

This file will show the no. of processors. If this is more then two, then we are hitting that bug.

I have the same problem but i am using ACS V3.3. There is site to site VPN tunnel configured using ASA between the ACS.
