I/O wait
by Ciro Iriarte 19 Apr '12

19 Apr '12

Hi!, I noticed just today that observium doesn't graph i/o wait time from CPU usage. Only user/nice/system/idle, i/o wait is not provided by SNMP or it's just missing in Observium? Regards, -- Ciro Iriarte http://cyruspy.wordpress.com --

Remove ports from Web Overview
by Philip Möller 16 Apr '12

16 Apr '12

Hi, I have a performance issue with the Observium Web Interface. The Apache2 webserver needs about 4-5 minutes to load all graphs of some devices. The devices are CISCO NEXUS 5548 switches with CISCO NEXUS 2248 FEX (Fabric Extenders). One 5548 switch will have about 7488 Interfaces when fully populated (48 local interfaces + 48 local virtual interfaces + 24 * 52 + 52 interfaces for the extenders). I do not need to monitor or graph all the edge / access layer ports but only the backbone ports ( 144 ports ). As far as I understand the documentation all ports flagged as disabled are not polled any more and all ports that are deleted are not shown by the Apache2. Unfortunately the poller.php run updates disabled = 0 for all ports found on the device and they are back in the web interface overview. I cannot find the statement in the poller.php debug output but all Ports with deleted = 1 set manually are updated to deleted = 0 after a poller.php run. My question is if there is any way to delete available ports I do not want to have in the web overview or to drain those ports from the web interface.

Re: [Observium] Date Picker broken
by Timo Ament 12 Apr '12

12 Apr '12

Hi Folks, same issue as Bruce - setting the Date Picker reverts you back to the start-page. Normally, when opening a graph the url is something like: http://observium/graphs/type=customer_bits/to=1334238800/id=server/from=133… Now when changing the time-range and klicking "update" the URL is beeing transformed into: http://observium/index.php/graphs/type=customer_bits/to=1334238800/id=serve… When i remove the index.php from the url i am getting the desired result. Currently running 3026 Regards Timo Am 12.04.2012 13:00, schrieb observium-request(a)observium.org: > Re: Date Picker broken

Date Picker broken
by Bruce-Young Majola 12 Apr '12

12 Apr '12

Hi, Please have a look at the date picker for graphs, it looks to be broken and the latest version of Observium. It takes you back to the "Home" page whenever you click the Update button. Is anyone having the same issue? Regards, Bruce DISCLAIMER: The information in this message is confidential and may be legally privileged. It is intended solely for the addressee.

Device Graphs page blank
by Chris Stone 11 Apr '12

11 Apr '12

Not sure when this started, but I've got a couple of Linux servers where suddenly the Graphs tab on them blank. The page layout is all there, but the part under the heading Graphs where the graphs and netstats links and graphs should be is empty. Checked the apache logs and see nothing there indicating any problem and poller.php runs fine - one of them: Observium Poller v0.12.4.3008 Starting polling run: pegasus.domain.com 65 linux (unix) Using hrSystemUptime (384:13:39:50.94) Uptime: 1 years, 19 days, 13h 39m 50s Hardware: Generic x86 64-bit Version: 2.6.18-164.6.1.el5 Features: CentOS 5.7 Processor Intel Xeon 2.80GHz... 10% Processor Intel Xeon 2.80GHz... 9% Processor Intel Xeon 2.80GHz... 11% Processor Intel Xeon 2.80GHz... 11% Mempool Physical memory: 88.23% Mempool Virtual memory: 43.62% Mempool Swap space: 0.52% Storage /: 19% Storage /boot: 35% Polling Netstats: IP TCP UDP ICMP SNMP HR Stats: Processes Users Polling IP-MIB ipSystemStats ipv4 ipv6 Caching Oids: ifEntry ifXEntry dot3StatsDuplexStatus Port lo(1) HC HC VLAN == bps(37.4kbps/37.4kbps)bytes(434kB/434kB)pkts(38.9pps/38.9pps) Port eth0(2) HC HC dot3Duplex VLAN == bps(340kbps/336kbps)bytes(3.86MB/3.81MB)pkts(153pps/149pps) Port eth1(3) HC dot3Duplex VLAN == bps(0bps/0bps)bytes(0B/0B)pkts(0pps/0pps) Port sit0(4) HC VLAN == bps(0bps/0bps)bytes(0B/0B)pkts(0pps/0pps) Module [ bgp-peers ] disabled on host.

PIX 501 support
by Chris Stone 06 Apr '12

06 Apr '12

I have a couple of Cisco PIX 501's setup in Observium, but they are being seen only as Generic Devices: Cisco PIX Firewall Version 6.3(5) Operating System Generic Device Contact support(a)axint.net Location Denver, CO Uptime 291 days, 22h 45m 55s And the only graphs I am getting are Uptime and the ethernet port counters (traffic, packets, etc). Nothing for memory or cpu. Both firewalls are the same - here's the info on one of them: voip-fw# show ver Cisco PIX Firewall Version 6.3(5) Cisco PIX Device Manager Version 3.0(4) Compiled on Thu 04-Aug-05 21:40 by morlee voip-fw up 291 days 22 hours Hardware: PIX-501, 16 MB RAM, CPU Am5x86 133 MHz Flash E28F640J3 @ 0x3000000, 8MB BIOS Flash E28F640J3 @ 0xfffd8000, 128KB 0: ethernet0: address is 0016.c836.223a, irq 9 1: ethernet1: address is 0016.c836.223c, irq 10 Licensed Features: Failover: Disabled VPN-DES: Enabled VPN-3DES-AES: Enabled Maximum Physical Interfaces: 2 Maximum Interfaces: 2 Cut-through Proxy: Enabled Guards: Enabled URL-filtering: Enabled Inside Hosts: 10 Throughput: Unlimited IKE peers: 10 My understanding was that PIX firewalls were supported. Is what I am getting all the support there currently is? Or is there something else I need to do to enable cpu and memory counters. I had them setup in Cacti previously, so it would seem that the SNMP counters do exist. -- Chris Stone AxisInternet, Inc. www.axint.net
