Reoccuring Scheduled Maintenance
by Mark Sanchez 15 May '20

15 May '20

Hey Adam & Team, We have a use case for a group of devices to not alert on them outside of 9am-5pm. Leveraging the API, can we setup a crontab, to achieve a recurring maintenance window for a particular group?

Ignore "Status" sensors
by Ryan, Spencer J. 11 May '20

11 May '20

It would be awesome if we could turn alerting for individual "Status Indicators" off the same way we can for normal sensors. We have a few problematic hosts with sensor issues, for example a dead RAID battery on a machine that is getting decomm'd in a few weeks. Unfortunately this means that every day (re-alert interval) we get alarms for these hosts for the same issues. I'd love to be able to just turn those specific Indicators off, without having to remove the whole host from that Alert Checker, as we do still want to know if anything else is wrong with the box. Same with the reoccurring alerts, we want to leave those on for all devices. ________________________________ Spencer J.

Device group membership in alerts?
by Ryan, Spencer J. 05 May '20

05 May '20

I've got a usecase to have the group names that a device is a member of passed down to the alerts, specifically Pagerduty. On the PD side, I can route incidents based on arbitrary details, and if I had group membership I could say "If device.groups contains "Network" route to XXX", instead of having to build a unique alert check for every group. The mocked up SQL query is SELECT group_name FROM groups WHERE group_id IN (SELECT group_id FROM group_table WHERE entity_type = 'device' AND entity_id = ?); Any chance that information can be made available? I'm happy to write the code if needed. ________________________________ Spencer J. Ryan | Manager, Technology and Infrastructure Miller Canfield T +1.313.496.7979 ________________________________

SNMP Max Repetitons enabled - some modules takes longer time to poll
by Kent Johannessen 30 Apr '20

30 Apr '20

Hello, We recently enabled max-rep to improve our Observium installation. And it did reduce polling time for most modules. But we see some module had significant increases. Specifically the poller modules for cisco eigrp, cef and cbqos and the bgp poller also seems to have increased somewhat. Has anyone seen this behavior ? Where should be begin to look?
