PowerDNS Recursive Server application
by Kevin Riahi 18 Jan '24

18 Jan '24

What is the process for support on applications for observium subscribers? In this case the PowerDNS Recursive Server application. Should we reach out to the original author. In this case the script is very simple and it seems it has no documented authors. The issue is the script is no longer working even though it was in the past. It may be because PowerDNS Recursive Server 4.8 has made permission changes to /var/run/pdns-recursor/pdns_recursor.controlsocket Testing the script /usr/lib/observium_agent/local/powerdns-recursor and it will execute with below error. <<<app-powerdns-recursor>>> Fatal: Unable to connect to remote '/var/run/pdns-recursor/pdns_recursor.controlsocket': Permission denied Here is the powerdns-recursor script . #!/bin/sh recctrl=`which rec_control` if [ $? -eq 0 ] then echo '<<<app-powerdns-recursor>>>' $recctrl get-all fi TIA Kevin

Questions about Observium Enterprise Support
by Johan Carlander 31 Oct '23

31 Oct '23

Hi, I’ve been trying to find more detailed info about Observium Enterprise Support, does anyone here has such an agreement and can share the details? All I can find on the web page says: “Included Enterprise-grade email & live support: Yes, 10 hours” So I take it that means that up to 10 hours of live support is included, what will be the cost per hour for support after those 10 hours? I cannot find any definition of what live support is, I would guess that it means some sort of online meeting with screen sharing but it would good to have it in writing so we know what to expect. Is there any SLA for response time for new support tickets, for example within 4 hours or Next Business day? Thanks in advance.

EqualLogics Volume Monitoring
by cwager＠communicationsmuseum.org.uk 31 Oct '23

31 Oct '23

Good Afternoon, I have been setting up Observium, which I am relatively new to, and am not sure how to monitor the volumes of the EqualLogic Storage Array, Observium has detected it and provided sensors for the Physical Disk, fan, Controllers, and so on but no volumes are picked up. According to the following link, there are MIBs for this. https://mibs.observium.org/mib/EQLVOLUME-MIB/ If I SNMPWALK the OID's then I get the expected data, would it be possible for someone to advise how I may go about getting this data to be shown in Observium itself? Thanks Chris

Team, i’ve been trying to add my servers with WMI with no success. Im running the query like this root@visum-fumpm:~# wmic -U [ad/]soporte%PASSWORD. //ad.fqdn.org "select * from Win32_ComputerSystem" and I get this error message: [librpc/rpc/dcerpc_connect.c:337:dcerpc_pipe_connect_ncacn_ip_tcp_recv()] failed NT status (c00000b5) in dcerpc_pipe_connect_ncacn_ip_tcp_recv [librpc/rpc/dcerpc_connect.c:828:dcerpc_pipe_connect_b_recv()] failed NT status (c00000b5) in dcerpc_pipe_connect_b_recv [wmi/wmic.c:196:main()] ERROR: Login to remote object. NTSTATUS: NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT - NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT So I cant add it to my observium server with this configuration in the config.php file: $config['wmi']['domain'] = "ad.fqdn.org"; $config['wmi']['user'] = "soporte"; $config['wmi']['pass'] = "PASSWORD"; $config['poller_modules']['wmi'] = 1; I have tried with this “soporte” account and also directly with the administrator account with no success, same error message.

Raisecom ISCOM ISCOM5508-GPSC(C)_ROAP_2.64.SP2.1_20211213

Hi Team, we are trying to monitor the above device. This works well. Observium can even monitor the GPON PON interfaces eg: gpon-olt1/1. The problem we are having is trying the monitor the ONU devices on site at a client. We use Raisecom ONU's. There are currently mib files available but we noticed that the mib files are empty. So it would seem that Observium cant monitor the bandwidth of the onu's behind the splitter that is connected to the pon interface. Is this something we can manually do from our side? if we have a look at the mib files in /opt/observium/mib/raisecom and vi into the mib file, it is populated. [root@localhost raisecom]# vi RAISECOM-SYSTEM-MIB -- MibName=raisecomSystem -- ======================================================================= -- Version info -- -- Version 0.1 Created 2003.12.17 by GONGGUIDONG -- This version of MIB is created just for the use of Network Management Systems -- display the memory and cpu. -- -- Copyright(c) 2002-2005 by RAISECOM TECH, Ltd. -- modify history -- 02, 20130809, guokai, modify raisecomVoltIndex -- 01, 20090915, qiyun, Add CPU monitor MIBs. -- -- ======================================================================= RAISECOM-SYSTEM-MIB DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN IMPORTS MODULE-IDENTITY,Unsigned32 FROM SNMPv2-SMI OBJECT-TYPE FROM SNMPv2-SMI raisecomAgent FROM RAISECOM-BASE-MIB TruthValue FROM SNMPv2-TC EnableVar FROM SWITCH-TC TimeStamp,TEXTUAL-CONVENTION FROM SNMPv2-TC; raisecomSystem MODULE-IDENTITY LAST-UPDATED "200507270000Z" ORGANIZATION "RAISECOM TECH, Ltd."

Teams webhook debugging
by Ivo van Tulden 17 Oct '23

17 Oct '23

Dear members, After the great help with the dashboard I went of to the next part in automating, which is for us alerting through Teams. Hopefully you can help me as quickly with this as the last time. We want to use Teams Webhook function to create an alert message, which holds a couple of components. I have configured the webhook within MS Teams and setup the link with the Observium contacts. Created a alert which triggers and mentions the notification of contacts, but nothing happens within MS Teams. The problem can be with a couple of things, so I wanted to start with logging with Observium. This can probably show me if the firewall blocks, if the Webhook link was a bad URL, etc. Where can I find a debugging log of the notification actions, so I can start debugging?

Fwd: Juniper MX104 doesn't like load average graph
by David Beveridge 16 Oct '23

16 Oct '23

Last week I upgraded a server to Observium 23.10.13043 (stable) In Polling information I had a huge increase in system polling, (See attached images.) I backed out the upgrade and tried it again a few days later, when I had more time to investigate. In addition the processor graph had changed, showing much higher CPU usage I also noticed a new graph called Load Averages defined here... # svn blame /opt/observium/includes/definitions/mibs/juniper.inc.php 13020 adama // JUNIPER-MIB::jnxOperatingDescr.9.1.0.0 = STRING: Routing Engine 0 13020 adama // JUNIPER-MIB::jnxOperatingDescr.9.2.0.0 = STRING: Routing Engine 1 13020 adama // JUNIPER-MIB::jnxOperatingState.9.1.0.0 = INTEGER: running(2) 13020 adama // JUNIPER-MIB::jnxOperatingState.9.2.0.0 = INTEGER: standby(7) 13020 adama // JUNIPER-MIB::jnxOperating1MinLoadAvg.9.1.0.0 = Gauge32: 123 13020 adama // JUNIPER-MIB::jnxOperating1MinLoadAvg.9.2.0.0 = Gauge32: 8 13020 adama // JUNIPER-MIB::jnxOperating5MinLoadAvg.9.1.0.0 = Gauge32: 56 13020 adama // JUNIPER-MIB::jnxOperating5MinLoadAvg.9.2.0.0 = Gauge32: 5 13020 adama // JUNIPER-MIB::jnxOperating15MinLoadAvg.9.1.0.0 = Gauge32: 27 13020 adama // JUNIPER-MIB::jnxOperating15MinLoadAvg.9.2.0.0 = Gauge32: 0 13020 adama $config['mibs'][$mib]['la'] = [ 13020 adama 'type' => 'table', // In table mode get first entry with test condition 13020 adama 'scale' => 0.01, 13020 adama // Walks 13020 adama 'oid_extra' => 'jnxOperatingState.9', 13020 adama 'oid_1min' => 'jnxOperating1MinLoadAvg.9', 13020 adama 'oid_5min' => 'jnxOperating5MinLoadAvg.9', 13020 adama 'oid_15min' => 'jnxOperating15MinLoadAvg.9', 13020 adama 'test' => [ 'field' => 'jnxOperatingState', 'operator' => 'eq', 'value' => 'running' ], 13020 adama ]; 13020 adama I added unset($config['mibs'][$mib]['la']); // dave did this This has fixed the problem, I don't need the la graph anyway. I had tried to add this to confg.php, but that didn't work. I'm concerned that modifying the juniper.inc.php is not a good idea. Is there a better way to disable this?
