I'm looking to see if the ability exists to create a group with only a specific set of graphs based on an App. Then be able to assign that group to a user to view Ron Culler

RANCID integration
by Robbie Wright 16 Sep '15

16 Sep '15

Been hacking around with rancid for a bit and stuck on this step: Run this command to create the folder structure: su - rancid /var/lib/rancid/bin/rancid-cvs It is asking for a password, presumably for rancid, which we don't have. Again presuming here, that it was created by the installer. Trying hard to follow the instructions (exactly) and this is where I'm getting hung up. Thanks ahead of time for the help.

Fwd: Does observium support snapshot.
by Varun Nair (Tech-OPS) 16 Sep '15

16 Sep '15

Hey All, Firstly, a big kudos to observium and for making the life of a n/w engineer tad better. :) Now to my query, I have a Subscription Edition installed. Was wondering if there is a way to setup two instances say master/slave where the master polls the data and sends a periodic snapshot to the slave. This is basically for backups. Any pointers in this regard would be much appreciated. Feel free to revert if any questions.

Support for EMC Isilon & NetApp cDOT
by Jesper Frank Nemholt 16 Sep '15

16 Sep '15

Hi! I saw on an old thread that it's a know fact that NetApp cDOT doesn't work well, apparently due to changes in the MIB from NetApp so they don't use the normal structure anymore. A case was opened with NetApp.....was there any traction on that so far ? Secondly, with Isilon it does pull a lot of info by default, but due to Isilon using something called SmartConnect which basically is a round-robin DNS, if you use the cluster name you get a new node every time which confuses Observium quite a lot. Is there a way to make it somehow consolidate or average the data from all nodes in a cluster so I don't have to create each node individually ? /Jesper

Match for Cisco routers but not switches?
by Andrew Plas 16 Sep '15

16 Sep '15

I am looking to create an alert checker to send an alert when an Ethernet interface on a Cisco IOS router goes down- for example when the router is still up and available in monitoring, but a physical link is down due to a local switch failure, carrier CPE down, peer (unamanaged) router down... We receive syslogs of course, but these can occasionally get lost in the flood and not noticed as actionable by NOC staff. Is there an effective way to make a device match for Cisco routers, but not Cisco switches? The OS type both show up as "ios", and I haven't found something router-specific to successfully match on. I can do this individually by device name, but unfortunately our naming scheme isn't specific enough to match them all with *rt* or *wan or similar. As you can see below, I set the device match to "os equals ios" which includes switches that have a ton of link-down-but-enabled ports on them! Thank you, Andrew [image: Inline image 2]

Show client *rate* on wireless clients graph
by Tim Vaughan 15 Sep '15

15 Sep '15

I'm using Observium to track wireless clients on our Cisco wireless controller. It's very useful. However, when I look at the longer-term graphs (monthly, yearly etc.) it's less useful because I'm not sure what it's showing. Is it clients per day, per week or what? For an example, see: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3183918/apelmRwNW7.png. Is there a way to get the legend show the rate rather than just a plain number? -- Mobile: 07868246225 Skype: tvaughan Twitter: twitter.com/tvaughan

Re: [Observium] observium Digest, Vol 62, Issue 103
by Nate Mellendorf 15 Sep '15

Adam, That makes sense. As much as modern technology makes it seem otherwise, someone always needs to spend the time and code it into existence. With the mibs, is it something we would expect to see in time? Is there a way we could help expedite the coding process? I'm curious if there's a way we can contribute to your efforts. If so, please let me know. I'd be happy to take it to my team. We've discussed it once already, and would really like to see additional stats on our kemps. Thank you!

KEMP MIBs Attached
by Nate Mellendorf 15 Sep '15

15 Sep '15

Team, I've attached the MIBs that can be found on the KEMP load master support page. Do you know if it's possible to have these added to Observium? Observium works great for Netscaler, so we're hoping it can do the same for Kemp. I'm not sure if that's possible with what's provided, but I thought I'd send it your way and see what can be made of it. Please let me know if additional info is needed.

After server-deletion, I have a dis-associated port shown as down
by Pål Rydningen 15 Sep '15

15 Sep '15

Hi I have deleted a server from the device-list, but somehow a single port escaped the deletion, and is now shown as "Port Down" without being attached to any device. Its called "Vmnic1" and the url to it is " http://observium-ip/device/tab=port/port=352173/" How can I identify and "clean up" the entry in question? -- Pål R.
