I have 2 devices stuck in unknown state. I've tried to re-discover them, but there was no change in their status.
Then I tried to delete them and I got the following error message:
I have restarted the APIC-EM server, but I still get the same error messages. The discovery doesn't show any errors.
Any ideas how to fix this?

Hi,
Can you please share the cluster setup or the inventory-service logs to look into the issue.
Thanks,

Hi Pragatheeswary,
It's a single server setup. Do you mean the apic-em-inventory-manager-service Instance Logs output from controllerDevelopment tab?

Log in as grapevine.
execute: cd bin
execute: grape instance status
This will display all of the services. Look for the apic-em-inventory-manager-service and note the ip address.
execute: ssh <ip of inventory service>
execute: tar czvf logs4tac.tgz /var/log/grapevine/services/apic-em-inventory-manager-service/5.1.3.1009/
NOTE: the version at the end of the path differs depending on what you are running
execute: exit
execute: scp <ip of inventory service>:logs4tac.tgz .
execute: exit
Now the file can be retrieved with filezilla or such.
sftp://<ip of inventory service>:logs4tac.tgz .

Hi Vag Le,
I meant the instance logs of apic-em-inventory-manager-service.
The steps are as shared by Nicholas.

What displays when you hover over the 'i' next to unknown?

Thanks for the answers everyone,
I've followed the instructions and produced the logs4tac.tgz file with a size of 85.9MB (1.34GB uncompressed).
Some of the log files (43) are empty, some are up to 100MB and some of them have quite a bit of information on the network topology..
Are we looking for a specific file that might give an indication on the nature of the issue?

Please share apic-em-inventory-manager-service.log* logs.(assuming it is 2.0.X build)
If it is earlier build (1.4.X) , please share apic-em-inventory-manager-service.log, apic-inventory.log, xde.log, existenceInventory.log, inventory.log

I was mentioning about the APIC-EM version. Since it is 1.4.X please share apic-inventory.log, xde.log, existenceInventory.log, inventory.log logs too.
06-08-2017 07:20 PM
Please ignore. Looks the attachment has all log files. Will take a look and update you.
06-08-2017 08:16 PM
Is there an APIC-EM v2.0.x out? Where can I get it?
06-08-2017 08:19 PM
no. it has not been released yet.
there will be a 1.5 before 2.x
06-09-2017 04:36 AM
Please share inventory.log, apic-inventory.log, xde.log and existenceInventory.log too. I thought all these files were in the attachment. But only apic-em-inventory-manager-service.log is available and that does not have the info on the issue.
