Are 802.1ag or Y.1731 monitored?
by Adam Thompson 23 Sep '19

23 Sep '19

I’ll be deploying some switches Real Soon Now that will be running 802.1ag / MEF OAM-CFM / Y.1731 protocols to get fine-grained as-measured QoS data about the underlying carrier. Is any of that monitored automatically by Observium? Specifically, I’m referring to the counters found in IEEE8021-CFM-MIB and MEF-SOAM-PM-MIB. I’ll be running a small enough number of Management Domains (in IEEE/MEF/ITU-speak) that I can do custom graphs if I have to… but it would sure be nice to not have to!

Question about Cisco 3650 CPU polling
by Svensson Fredrik A 20 Sep '19

20 Sep '19

Hello! Cisco has big problems with 3650 with severalt bugs with high utilization of CPU and memory-leaks. Unfortunally this problem with CPU isnt seen in Observium. The graph is showing the output from sh cpu platform, stable at 49-50% for example: CPU utilization for five seconds: 48%, one minute: 49%, five minutes: 49% Core 0: CPU utilization for five seconds: 50%, one minute: 49%, five minutes: 49% Core 1: CPU utilization for five seconds: 48%, one minute: 51%, five minutes: 49% Core 2: CPU utilization for five seconds: 47%, one minute: 47%, five minutes: 49% Core 3: CPU utilization for five seconds: 49%, one minute: 48%, five minutes: 49% In the meantime we have extreamly high cpu sh processes cpu CPU utilization for five seconds: 95%/29%; one minute: 96%; five minutes: 96% The High cpu causes at least that the device is alerting as down since it cant answer snmp-polling. Is this fixable so we can get alerts from high CPU?

The right table shows that there are more alerts than shows the widget. I use Firefox 69.0. [cid:image001.png@01D56EC2.9ADB1EE0] Thanks Laszlo

Observium alert checker - polling when devices are unresponsive
by Benedikt Sveinsson 17 Sep '19

17 Sep '19

Hi, I'm trying to create an alert for ports which have an egress percentage over 80%. It's creating false positives for devices that are down during the poll which makes the alert logging report I'm trying to generate rather useless (see a screenshot of the Alert checker below) I tried putting device_status eq 1 into the Test Conditions and requiring all conditions, if I do that, an alert is never generated [cid:image001.png@01D56D44.F618ECD0] What is the best way to achieve this? Kind regards,

port parsing and port descriptions
by Kenneth Friend II 13 Sep '19

13 Sep '19

I'm admittedly quite the gimp when it comes to Linux and Observium, but I'm learning little by little. I have a custom port group setup to view my VMware network ports (port name / description=VMWare:SomePort). Several of these links are actually aggregated. In the HP/Aruba world they are Trunks. As far as I know, I cannot throw a description on a virtual port / trunk in HP-land. I wonder, is there a way, without being a PHP-guru to add a particular port to a custom port group when I'm unable to provide a port description? If not, that might be a neat feature at some point.

Custom polling interval for a device group
by Thomas Stather 10 Sep '19

10 Sep '19

Hi We are using Observium Professional: 19.6.9946 (rolling) Interval for polling: 5 minutes I have the issue that some of our network equipment (HPE gear) generates false-positives frequently. It is marked as down, then at the next polling cycle up again. Is it possible to define a custom polling cycle (i.e. 2 minute) for a certain device match (i.e. "device.type in network")? Then, i could generate an alert checker for this with the "Delay" set to 1, so that these devices are scanned every 2 minutes, but only if they are down 2 polling cycles in a row, an alert is generated. Or how can i fix this issue otherwise? Best, Thomas -- Thomas Stather IT Services VCP4, VCP6-DCV, VCP6.5-DCV Tel: +49 6221 486 628 Fax: +49 6221 486 561
