scaling graphs through variable
by Martijn Fennis 18 Oct '16

18 Oct '16

Hi, in our WAN we have multiple 100's ALIX boards connected through VPN. On eth1 we can scan all the info on the sublocations. On eth0 & eth2 we have various internet (local breakouts) connections with sometimes async ADSL modems. Is it somehow possible to retrieve a variable (that i have to insert manually / firewall) like ifAlias? It would be ideal to have up & download links per eth0 / eth2 parsed into scaling graphs on the ports tab. This way i can make alerts as we have no bandwidth throttling Regards, Martijn

Location menu gone after update
by William Bauer 18 Oct '16

I just updated our community edition to the latest, and the location dropdown in the devices menu is gone. We use that a ton--is there a way to get it back, perhaps in the config.php file? Thanks! Bill

by Richard Kucera 17 Oct '16

17 Oct '16

Dear Adam, Hello Community, my question is, if it's possible to move the "Status Warnings and Notifications" on XL screen to panel side. I modified already the dashboard for our need, the last thing is the "Status Warnings and Notifications" block. [cid:image001.png@01D228C4.17305430] Thank you in advance. Used Version: Observium 0.16.9.8118 (stable) Best regards from Switzerland Richard

NOC view
by MKS 17 Oct '16

17 Oct '16

Hello list I'm wondering if some of you are using observium as an alert system in a 24/7 NOC? I would like to have one window with open alerts, both from the alert checks and syslog alerts. Is it possible to copy the "syslog alerts" into the Alerts window (perhaps using some external program?) Regards MKS

syslog regex
by MKS 17 Oct '16

17 Oct '16

Hello list I'm having some problems with syslog alerts. RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Oct 17 11:44:17.872 : isis[1010]: %ROUTING-ISIS-5-ADJCHANGE : Adjacency to ****** (Bundle-Ether1.7) (L2) Down, Holdtime expired RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:Oct 17 11:46:05.893 : isis[1010]: %ROUTING-ISIS-5-ADJCHANGE : Adjacency to ******* (Bundle-Ether1.7) (L2) Up, New adjacency I'm using the regex "/Adjacency.*Up/" and "/Adjacency.*Down/" The "/Adjacency.*Up/" alert is working fine, but the combo Adjacency and Down doesn't alert. If I match only on Adjacency or only on Down I do get an alert, both these two together don't work as expected. Any workarounds or a different regex I should use? Regards MKS

It should be in the email that you get. You must be running a really old version then?

Hello, Simple question: Does Observium can add alert checker on group? For example, we have port group for x devices, so if we adding port alert we have to fill up Device Assocation and entity Association again. Thanks, Thom

Frontpage Map
by Zoellers, Billy 17 Oct '16

Looks like it's now defaulting to OpenStreetMap. I think it looks better, but it looks like none of my map config settings are working now. Are there new settings to use? For example: $config['frontpage']['map']['region'] = "US-KY"; $config['frontpage']['map']['resolution'] = "provinces"; $config['frontpage']['map']['zoom'] = "9"; $config['frontpage']['map']['center']['lat'] = "38.029"; $config['frontpage']['map']['center']['lng'] = "-84.496"; $config['frontpage']['map']['realworld'] = true; $config['frontpage']['map']['dotsize'] = 1; $config['frontpage']['map']['height'] = 450; [cid:DeanDortonbox.png] Billy Zoellers Infrastructure Engineer 106 W.
