device migration from SNMPv2 to SNMPv3
by Jan Horacek 22 Nov '17

22 Nov '17

Hi, I have a one question regarding migration devices in Observium from SNMPv2 to SNMPv3. I have in the Observium in this moment around 300 devices and want to use SNMPv3 instead of current SNMPv2c. Is here any procedure how I can do bulk change in Observium instead of removing and adding devices or do it manually? Thanks Jan

How to trigger of checkpoint FW state in observium?
by Steve Costaras 22 Nov '17

22 Nov '17

We're running observium pro stable release 17.10.8930 and are monitoring several checkpoint firewalls with it. I'm trying to figure out how to generate an alert when the firewalls fail over or when a state change occurs. I see that it's being polled as it's displayed for the device header. as you can see attached. This comes from checkpoint from the 1.3.6.1.4.1.2620.1.5.6.0 OID: SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.2620.1.5.6.0 = STRING: "active" But I don't see any method to select that as an entity type? Anyone have any pointers?

21 Nov '17

Hi all i have recently added my openvpn server to observium server for openvpn application monitoring. i have installed {{ xinetd and copied the openvpn script to }}/usr/lib/observium_agent/local/openvpn path. I have opened the openvpn server management port by adding 1st line as "management 10.100.115.220 49000 /etc/openvpn/pass.txt and then restarted openvpn and xinetd. When i checked using netstat on openvpn server the server is listening on tcp port 49000.{{}} i can access the management console of openvpn when i run the following command from my observium server "telnet 10.100.115.220 49000" followed by a password. But i cannot see the graphs of load and users connected in the Web GUI. I have checked RRD folder also of the device there is no rrd file named openvpn.rrd or so. The unix agent is already added to observium server and when i do "telnet 10.100.115.220 36602 | grep openvpn" then i get the following output : (nobody,223056,32312,0.2) /usr/sbin/openvpn --config vpn-routing.conf --daemon vpn-routing (nobody,195680,15056,2.3) /usr/sbin/openvpn --daemon --writepid /var/run/openvpn/vpn-bridge.pid --cd /etc/openvpn/ --config vpn-bridge.conf But i cannot see the graphs in web gui someone please help.

ASR-9000 PSU Status / Alarms
by Robert Williams 17 Nov '17

17 Nov '17

Hi all, Just noticed a strange problem with reporting alarms on the ASR9001 (XR5.3.4). A lab router was reloaded and when it came back up there is a "Major" chassis alarm as one of the two PSUs has failed. However, neither the PSU failure nor the 'MAJ' alarm status are detected by Observium. Even after a full discovery and polling, it is all green and happy on Observium it seems. In fact, it shows only 1 PSU now, even though two are installed and one is in a failed state: (All other 9001 have 2 x "ASR-9001 AC Power Supply" entries here) Console output confirms the fault and the presence of the major alarm, as well as a few different things (like N+1 resilience lost and 'Capacity') which could be used to detect this issue (if they are in Cisco-SNMP-land that is). #show env power R/S/I Modules Capacity Status (W) 0/PS0/M0/* host PM 750 Ok 0/PS0/M1/* host PM 0 Failed <<<<<<<< #show env power <snip> N+1 Supply Protected Capacity Available: Not Protected <<<<<<<< #show environment leds R/S/I Modules LED Status 0/RSP0/* host Critical-Alarm Off host Major-Alarm On <<<<<<<< host Minor-Alarm Off RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:RTR-123(admin)#show env power states Wed Nov 15 16:59:15.135 GMT R/S/I State MaxPower Time Count (1-ON/2-OFF) (W) (YY:WK:DD:HH:MIN:SS) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 0/PS0/M0/* 1 750 00:00:00:00:59:27 1 2 0 00:00:00:00:00:00 0 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 0/PS0/M1/* 1 0 00:00:00:00:00:00 0 2 0 00:00:00:00:59:27 1 <<<<<< '2 = Off' so......Can anything be done to tune-up the detection of such issues? In this case it was pure chance I noticed the fault after the reload as I had to be physically in front of it to patch something in. Otherwise I'd not have known. Any ideas? Cheers!
