Best practice for "Port Down"?
by Eric W. Bates 12 Jul '18

12 Jul '18

I quite like the idea that Observium notes "down" ports; however, in my case, most are false-positive in that they belong to users who power down after hours. Our normal port description for an unallocated port is "NXC" (No Xross Connect) to the "Ignore Ports by ifName/ifDescr" and that has helped. In a perfect world, I want to monitor all ports which interconnect between our switches, and all ports in the Data Center; but ignore everything else. Can I put a negated RegExp in "Ignore ports by ifAlias Regular Expression" instead? Thank you. -- Clark 159a, MS 46 508/289-3112

Hi, read this section: http://docs.observium.org/syslog/#match-syslog-hostnameip-with-device You have troubles with association between observium devices hostname and rsyslog received hosts. You must set preserve FQDN or just use associate by IP (as written in docs). > Satish Patel <mailto:satish.txt@gmail.com> > 11 July 2018 at 17:44 > I want to integrate syslog with my observium and i am following all > these steps http://docs.observium.org/syslog/ > > I am using rsyslog, I have point my Cisco gears to observium and i can > see in tcpdump logs are coming from cisco routers, now issue is i > can't see them in GUI interface, how do i troubleshoot now? > _______________________________________________ > observium mailing list > observium(a)observium.org > http://postman.memetic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/observium -- Mike Stupalov Observium Limited, http://observium.org

Problem with time range showing graph
by Fiberwide Sysadmins 11 Jul '18

11 Jul '18

Hi all, i'm using Observium in our company, we start suffering a problem when we try to show a graph in a defined time frame, the result is like that the time frame selected and the graph are different time frame, for example I select From: 2018-07-10 09:03:5 To: 2018-07-10 10:11:56 but the graph show starting 11:00 ending 12:10 like the attached image, and if I try to select a time-frame ending in this moment, the graph is empty, i suppose because the real time-frame used will end in the future. What I've missed in my configuration ?

No Alert Notification
by David Ross 11 Jul '18

11 Jul '18

I'm attempting to setup an alert notification that would get engaged only if SNMP and ICMP were down, so I've setup a device-down alert that is based upon the below two conditions. device_status_type snmp 0 device_status_type ping 0 I also have "Require all conditions" selected within the Alert Checker Conditions. When SNMP condition is met, Observium does mark the device as down and does not send a notification, as desired. However, when both conditions are met, Observium marks the device as down but does not send a notification. What am I missing? Regards, *David W. Ross, Sr.* Sr. Network Engineer 50 Fremont St, 42nd Floor San Francisco, California 94105 415.589.4930 - O 415.926.3483 - C david.ross(a)salesforce.com <http://smart.salesforce.com/sig/david.ross//us_mb/default/link.html>

how to exclude the CPU temperature readings when monitoring virtual machines?
by Thomas Stather 10 Jul '18

10 Jul '18

Hi I am using Observium Professional 18.1.9011 (subscription). I am monitoring one virtual machine (Ubuntu, VMWare ESXi hosted) and noticed that the CPU temperatur is quite high with 100 degrees :) The question is now how to exclude this output for all virtual machines if possible? Thanks in advance!

Is the snmp output from Aruba devices total rubbish or is something upfucked in my install.
by Rowlands Mark 10 Jul '18

10 Jul '18

Observium 8.6.9263 (10th June 2018) OS Linux 4.4.0-116-generic [amd64] (Ubuntu 16.04) Apache 2.4.18 (Ubuntu) PHP 7.0.30-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 (OPcache: ENABLED) Python 2.7.12 MySQL 10.1.25-MariaDB-1~xenial (extension: mysqli 5.0.12-dev) SNMP NET-SNMP 5.7.3 RRDtool 1.5.5 (rrdcached 1.5.5: unix:/var/run/rrdcached.sock) Fping 3.13 (IPv4 and IPv6) I have a bunch of Aruba devices, WAP205H, IAP155, 303H and a single 7005. OS little varied but usually 6.4x or 6.5x. I am aware that the Aruba is not specifically supported but would expect basic snmp bandwidth info to be correct ( ish ) IAP155 and 7005 seem to report bandwidth traffic ok but the 205and 303 report nonsense. ( see the attached graph ) . Are there other Aruba users out there with similar issues or is it just me?

Best practice for alert threshold per devices
by Thibault Richard 09 Jul '18

09 Jul '18

%Hello, Im trying to define different alert threshold per devices. Ive tried by proceeding like this : 1° Ive defined a global alarm for all my devices having disk over 90% Im associating this alert checks to every devices except those in a specific group 2° The group with id 17, correspond to devices for which I accept a disk filled under 95% 3° Ive defined a second alert check specifically for this Is it the good way to achieve my goal ? Is my syntax correct ? Best Regards Thibault
