Hi, how can i show a list of ports in observium that only show the alerted ports that are not toggled alerts=no in the device port settings page? in ports dropdown menu item the total number of alerted ports is correct, but if i open the page i see all the alerted ports. including the ports that have been toggeld not to generate an alert in the settings. Can i create a view filter somewhere to only show the relevant ports?

RRDTool Output: ERROR only on overview graph.
by Arno Mooreeleme 20 Jan '16

20 Jan '16

We just added a host to observium for which the overview graph does not work. It is an cisco firewall (ASA) running in context mode, the context itself has just 2 interfaces. Both these interfaces are graphed just fine when we look at the ports. However the combined graph on the overview page just shows an 'error drawing graph'. The problem seems to be that the RRD graph is generated without any path's to the existing RRD files. As you can see in the output below there is just an empty space for where the RRD path should be. Any idea where to start troubleshooting this? Note that this is the only host, all other work just fine.

Website Alerting
by Matt Zillmann 19 Jan '16

Hello everyone, I am investigating whether monitoring/alerting a website's status is possible with Observium. Has anyone done this before? It would be a basic alert (UP/DOWN) Thank you.

Network mounts
by Franks Andy (IT Technical Architecture Manager) 19 Jan '16

19 Jan '16

Hi all, If I change ignore_mount_network=>0, should it show up cifsd based shares? I have a host reporting some back, but nothing in observium. I can't pick up windows mount points, and wondered if I could map read only via cifsd in order just to report the space free and alert. Professional version if it makes any difference. Thanks Andy.

Postfix configuration for alerts
by Matt Zillmann 19 Jan '16

19 Jan '16

Hello everyone, I am trying to set up email alerting for Observium. I have hit a roadblock. I am not sure what I need to configure on postfix in order to send only outbound email alerts to our internal exchange server IT email recipients. Does anyone have documentation or an idea on how to do this? Thank you in advance!

I*m interested in the same. From what the boys said at IRC this is not possible with Observium. Sadly. =( But if someone finds a way, please let me know. =) Also interested in FTP-tests for test of actual upload/download to see if Ftp is up. =) Cheers -- Henrik Cednert cto | td | compositor Filmlance International Direct + 46 (0)704 71 89 54 From: observium <observium-bounces(a)observium.org<mailto:observium-bounces@observium.org>> on behalf of Matt Zillmann <mzillmann(a)testoil.com<mailto:mzillmann@testoil.com>> Reply-To: Observium Network Observation System <observium(a)observium.org<mailto:observium@observium.org>> Date: Tuesday 19 January 2016 at 14:53 To: Observium Network Observation System <observium(a)observium.org<mailto:observium@observium.org>> Subject: [Observium] Website Alerting Hello everyone, I am investigating whether monitoring/alerting a website’s status is possible with Observium.
