Post saturation warnings / alerts disabled ?
by Maarten De Wispelaere 11 Aug '12

11 Aug '12

Dear all, For some reason, I'm getting Port saturation threshold warnings for ports on a switch where I have disabled 'alerting' for that specific port. Is that normal ? Or some kind of bug ? I'm new to Observium, so I can't compare to previous versions. Thanks in advance, Maarten De Wispelaere IBCN - Ghent University

Alert emails not working
by Shekhar Basnet 05 Aug '12

05 Aug '12

Hello List, I used to get emails of alerts (including BGP, temperature) but not anymore. I keep on doing SVN updates every week. I noticed that the emails were not coming after many updates. I've not changed any settings. I wonder what is wrong. I have set SNMP contact as 'netadmin' in all my routers. Observium was sending emails to this alias. Anybody knows how to fix this? Current version is as below:- Apache: 2.2.3 (CentOS) PHP: 5.1.6 MySQL: 5.0.77 RRDtool: 1.4.5 Observium: 0.12.8.3358 Config.php is as below:- ### ADDED - Alert Settings $config['alerts']['email']['default'] = NULL; ## Default alert recipient $config['alerts']['email']['default_only'] = FALSE; ## Only use default recipient $config['alerts']['email']['enable'] = TRUE; ## Enable email alerts #$config['alerts']['port']['ifdown'] = TRUE; ## Generate alerts for ports that go down

Installation help with menu items
by Dave Badia 03 Aug '12

03 Aug '12

Hi - I have a new installation of observium running on apache on gentoo. When I go to the main page (http://myserver/observium/html/) it looks similar to the demo and I see the data. But, when I click on the menu items, they don't work. For example, if I click on Locations I get The requested URL /index.php/locations// was not found on this server. Any ideas as to what I've configured incorrectly? Thanks Dave

Cisco 2900 Router VRF display Issue
by Moermond, Timothy 02 Aug '12

02 Aug '12

Hi, I have situation where Observium shows VRF information for all of my 2800 series routers but not my 2900 series router. Also the config tab is not showing up either from the rancid integration, but it does for all of my 2800 series routers. I have removed and added the router back but that did not seem to change anything. All of other information appears to be displaying and rancid is pulling the configuration without any issues. Has anyone run into this? The 2900 is running IOS ver. 15.0(1)M3. Tim

Recent changes on the billing pages - CPU hogging of poll-billing.php
by Erik Bais 31 Jul '12

31 Jul '12

Hi, I would like to start with that the recent changes look really good on the billing pages. Excellent job, I like it. Over the last few weeks minor changes have been done to these pages and I was wondering if anything was also done to the file: /opt/observium/poll-billing.php or the tables used for it. That process currently takes about 40 minutes on our environment, while I hoped that upgrading to an Equillogic with 16 SAS drives with RAID10 for more IOPS would fix the issue, while it did improve a bit, the result is the similar. Could it be that there are indices missing? Or is there something else which could be done that might improve this? I can create some indices myself to see if things improve in a shadow environment, but I'm not sure if that would break things with future SVN update's if done in production ?
