Hi, we have observium installed and working fine (polling 629 devices). It is currently installed on a physical server. How advisable is it to promote it to a virtual server? -- Saluda cordialmente

CustomOID Draw Error
by amat＠tvfactory.ch 05 Oct '23

Good Morning, We're having trouble with observium and "Custom OID" SNMP retrieval. The Huawei (S6730 V200R019C00SPC500) monitors portspeed and other. However, we are trying to get some Custom OID for hwAvgDuty5min refelecting the Average 5 Min CPU usage. (A) SNMP Walk On the same machine that Observium is installed the snmpwalk returns a value that makes sense administrator@m01:/opt/observium/html/weathermap/configs$ snmpwalk -v2c -c community-hidden 151.252.33.12 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.6.3.4.1.4 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.2011.6.3.4.1.4.0.0.0 = INTEGER: 9 (B) Observium - Configure Custom OID Numeric OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.6.3.4.1.4 we also tried Numeric OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.2011.6.3.4.1.4.0.0.0 Text OID hwAvgDuty5min Value Type GAUGE Description Average CPU Usage Display Unit cpu-usage Display Symbol % Kibibyte (1024) no Log Y Axis no Audo-discovery Yes Unfortunately it does return a "Draw Error". If we do open the CustomOID Graph we see Error: Openeing '': No such file or directory. Any idea what goes wrong here? Kind Regards Ramon Amat

Hello, does anyone know if observium can retrieve BGP peering info via SNMP with RouterOS 7.10+? It is now supported on Mikrotiks side, I am able to see the info via snmpwalk with OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.15.3.1 [cid:image003.png@01D9F6A7.A13EF790] [cid:image002.png@01D9F6A7.3CD825B0] Ryan Bergen Network Lead HyLife Ltd 5 Fabas Street, Box 100 La Broquerie, MB R0A 0W0 p 204-424-2300 x472 hylife.com<https://hylife.com/> • Ryan.Bergen(a)Hylife.com<mailto:Ryan.Bergen@Hylife.com> [cid3813500305*image001.png(a)01D93182.760726F0]

Hi Adam, Did you manage to implement this ‘math parser’ feature for custom oid’s?

Devices with multiple IP addresses
by Sanjeev Gupta 01 Oct '23

01 Oct '23

Hi, Thanks Adam, I am back to using Observium after many years (was on the Subscription, now on Community).. I have a question on a router (and some similar devices). The router has two interfaces, both visible from the Observium poller. It has been discovered twice, and appears twice as well on the map. I cannot find a script, or anything in the UI (which I am still exploring) or the FAQ. What should I be looking for? -- Sanjeev Gupta +65 98551208 http://sg.linkedin.com/in/ghane
