Map Location
by Ryan Huff 09 Feb '19

09 Feb '19

It seems that no matter what addressing schema I've tried to set with config['location_map']['nice_name'] ['real_address'], it continues to populate the front page map with the proper location names, but all located in Ponta Delgada on the island of São Miguel. The USA addressing formats I've tried are: street address, city, state, country and street address, city, state (Ex: 180 Peachtree Street, Atlanta, Georgia, USA) Is there an additional override I am missing, or a way to verify the location value I'm typing is understandable to the correct geopositioning on the map? Thanks, Ryan Huff, CCDP, CCNP Cisco Certified Network and Design Professional

Graph scale question
by Ryan Huff 08 Feb '19

08 Feb '19

Using the latest CE.. All the graphs’ time scale seems to be off by a few hours. For example, a device’s port graph shows traffic for today at 2100 hours, and it’s only 1723 currently. I have verified the PHP instance Observium is using reports the correct TZ (America/New_York) and also the monitored device is in the correct TZ. Is there a UTC offset I need to adjust somewhere? Thanks, -Ryan

APC PDU's, some change have made outlet status to show twice.

Hello Some fairly recent update and made my PDU’s a bit messy in obervium. I know have two statuses per outlet. See pictures of two different APC models.

Minigraphs, names and labels. Some issues.
by Henrik Cednert (Filmlance) 07 Feb '19

07 Feb '19

Hello I mentioned this in a thread about something else but think it drowned and got lost. lifting it out to a separate thread since I find these issues very frustrating. Not sure if I’m alone or not. 1. Can’t I rename graphs like we could in config.php? 2. Is there any way to move the label so that it doesn’t hide parts of the graph? 3. They mini graphs are a lot slower to refresh now, can this be tweaked? 4. I get the feeling that “show legend” on the larger graphs is semi-broken and is more or less always off here. Or is there some global setting that can have been changed when upgrading?

Cisco RV340/345

It appears that the interfaces and everything else isn't working in Observium. Does anyone have any experience with this device? I'm happy to post an snmpwalk if it might help it get better support.

CDR Overage Alerts
by Andrew Lemin 04 Feb '19

04 Feb '19

Hi List, I know there has been a long-time request to enable the ability to generate an Alert when traffic (peak or 95%) goes over the CDR (as configured within [CDR] on the interface), and we would like to know if this has been realised yet? We just need a way of dynamically detecting and reporting when traffic goes over the configured CDR, using the port description’s [CDR] value. We cannot create Observium billing reports for every single customer facing port as we have thousands, and we are trying to keep manual processes to a minimum as this could easily be a generic alert of the form; ifInUcastPkts_rate > CDR OR ifOutUcastPkts_rate > CDR I believe historically there was some outstanding work to convert the discovered [CDR] field data into a normalised bps value in the database (as CDR can be given in units of Bits/Megabits/Gigabits etc). Thanks, Andy.

Manage Output Value of custom OID
by walter＠onda.ch 31 Jan '19

31 Jan '19

Hello I'm happy to using Observium and its Custom OID. Eveything is working fine. My question is the presentation of the values to the web. Is it possible to manipulate just for the presentation the collecte values? For example wie collect the SNR (Signal to noise) from the CMTS, this value has 3 digits like 325 in the RRD. Now for the human I would like to change it to 32.5 in the grafic. Is it possible? If not, would it be a nice features? Regards Walter
