by George Michalopoulos 01 Feb '23

01 Feb '23

hello all, i discovered Observium few days ago, i have to sleep some days.. :) as far as i go deeper, it seems like the ultimate tool to monitor a network.. thank you very much for your work! a simple question. i have 2 OSBridge wireless antennas, they have snmp, and as far as i saw, they have mibs, but they are not included in the distribution.. can i add them manually, or you can include them in a future release ? -- regards, George Michalopoulos born & raise @ Metron 6 (six) Metron6(a)gmail.com

Error "Creation Failed" when Adding Port Groups
by Justin Radke 01 Feb '23

01 Feb '23

Goal: Attempting to make “aggregate” graphs by calculating port bandwidth from multiple devices. For example, a graph that shows the total bandwidth of IP transit or IXP Peering ports that are not in LAG groups on Cisco gear. Problem Statement: When creating a “Group” of ports I get an error in red that says “Creation Failed: Unknown action requested.” Problem Description: 1. Click “Create New Group” in the GUI 2. Select Entity Type “Port” 3. Give group name of “TestGroup1” 4. Select “Device” from the dropdown, default to “in” and select a Cisco router in the dropdown that is already present and working in Observium 5. Click “Add rule” select “AND” choose “Port ifIndex” “equals” enter in the field the ifindex a. I’ve also tried adding just one or even multiple rules with “OR’s” results in this message b. I’ve also tried adding the port with “Port ID”, “Port ifDescr”, “Port ifName” and others all result in this failure message c. I’m getting the port_id, ifindex, ifName, etc from the “Data” tab when viewing a Port of the Cisco in Observium 6. Click the bottom right, green “Add Group” and receive the error message: “Creation Failed: Unknown action requested.” Can someone direct me to how to make such graphs? And/or explain what I might be doing wrong that I cannot create Port Groups?

Hi All We have a compliance requirement to forward the observium event log to a separate syslog server or some sort of logstash. Is there any functionality in observium for this?

Still cannot log onto the web console
by Matthew Cotter 30 Jan '23

30 Jan '23

Hi Adam, A long time ago, I sent an email saying I could not log onto the Observium website. It appears to be still working when I look at the log file which is HUGE, 1781351488 in size. I was looking at the housekeeping option but when I was poking around in the terminal, I see there is cron.daily, cron.weekly, cron.monthly. no cron.d How can I run this on the fly to clean up that file? I could not figure that out. my Linux is amateur at best. I can navigate around, and edit files, but no coding experience. Please help.. I have made many changes to our network and I need to ger this so we can log in and I need to update the devices. Thank you!

Forigate with virtual interfaces only
by Marian Rychtecky 26 Jan '23

26 Jan '23

Hi all, I have a short question: Does each device's main "traffic graph" (aggregated traffic in the overview) only show physical interfaces? Today I installed FG-200F with all interfaces as LAG (LAN and WAN is the LAG interface of 2 physical interfaces). Unfortunately, I cannot see traffic from LAG interfaces counted in total traffic. The main graph looks like traffic is aggregated per physical interface only. Any solution for this, please? BTW - Fortigate is not showing physical interfaces when they are part of LAG.

Syslog host matching with multiple devices and 1 public IP
by mp＠matt-parkinson.co.uk 25 Jan '23

25 Jan '23

Hi, We have recently started using the syslog part of Observium and for the most part it works well where we have multiple public IP's logs are coming from or for places where we have VPN's and can reach devices on their local IP's. We are running into a problem however when we have multiple devices pushing their syslog's to us over a WAN link and they come from the same public IP. We're using the %fromhost% variable in the configuration and all logs seem to end up with the first device that we have set in /etc/hosts to match the public IP. We've tried changing the %fromhost% to %hostname% instead thinking it would use the hostname within the log entry but unfortunately that didn't work either. I've had a look at the documentation on how to do manual matching but I don't think that would help here either as it's only going to match the public IP. Has anyone come up against this before and know if there is a way to resolve it or will I need to create VPN's to each of those sites so we can push the logs over their private IP's instead?

Values keep flapping
by Marian Rychtecky 21 Jan '23

21 Jan '23

Hi all, I'm wondering why a lot of our device's values keep flapping. It's outside of the discovery schedule. Therefore I guess it's something with SNMP timers. It happens on all devices randomly. Does anyone have similar issues? Thank you, Marian -- Marian Rychtecký mr(a)nix.cz Phone +420 724 397 441 NIX.CZ z.s.p.o. Americká 23, Praha 2 130 52 Czech Republic http://www.nix.cz

The Alert checker sends messages if pooled get null for a port parameters
by Vasiliy Moroz 04 Jan '23

04 Jan '23

Hello Community, Was there anyone who had an issue and could give me advice on how to work around my case described in the attached file ? Briefly: I set an alert checker, it checks the port state "ifOperStatus equals down" wait delay time and sends me the message. The port's operational status is constantly down for a long time. Sometimes the checker get NULL for port parameters so as ifOperStatus is NULL the checker defines it is not equals to "down" and sends me "false" message "Clear" The next check time the checker gets real state ifOperStatus equals down and as Alert was cleared last time so checker creates a new alert and sends me notification. Every time the checker gets null I am getting Clear then Alert notification. If I could operate with the previous state at the checker condition rule I would be set to create an alert only if the previous state was "up" AND the state for now is "down". [image: image.png]

Group Email Alerts
by Luis Londoño 23 Nov '22

23 Nov '22

Is there a way to group email alerts so there is not an email alert for every sensor that might go down at the same time? For example multiple fans on a server might show as an alert if the device itself is not responding

Minimum OID view on Cisco CPE to be pollable by Observium?
by Adam Thompson 23 Nov '22

23 Nov '22

Hi, Short of trial-and-error, how can we find the minimum set of OIDs required for Observium to be willing to detect an older Cisco router (e.g. 8xx, 18xx) and add it, so that interfaces can be polled? I already know that if we enable access to ifTable only, Observium doesn't want to play ball and won't add the device. I don't mind reading the source if I have a clue what & where to look for, but I haven't yet found anything promising. Clues, please? -Adam Adam Thompson Consultant, Infrastructure Services [MERLIN] 100 - 135 Innovation Drive Winnipeg, MB R3T 6A8 (204) 977-6824 or 1-800-430-6404 (MB only) https://www.merlin.mb.ca<https://www.merlin.mb.ca/> [cid:image002.png@01D8FEA1.078201A0]Chat with me on Teams<https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/0?users=athompson@merlin.mb.ca>

Re: snmp view
by Mati 23 Nov '22

23 Nov '22

Hello, I have configured one of our routers only to allow SNMP access to .1.3.6.1.2.1.2 oid using the snmp-server view command, but Observium will not add the device. However, if an SNMP object name is used instead eg *cisco*, the device is successfully polled. Is there a way of just polling the above oid in Observium? Kind regards Mati

always show table footer
by Wiethoff, Helge 20 Nov '22

20 Nov '22

Hi, I noticed that the table footer is not shown if less than 100 objects are displayed. Can it be configured so that the number of objects is always displayed? I often filter by firmware version, etc. and it would be helpful to have the number displayed. Best regards Helge

SNMP returning too much data
by Timothy Stoddard 18 Nov '22

18 Nov '22

I am trying to graph the number of GPS satellites my receiver is seeing, however, what is returned via SNMP has more information than what I need. This is from the documentation. I just want to strip the first integer as the answer. For one satellite with vehicle number 16: 1,16,C,-158 <-- I need the "1" For six satellites: 6,12,C,-156,14,C,-155,8,T,-162,24,C,-158,18,C,161,6,C,-160 <-- I need the "6" Can Observium do this? Thanks, -- Tim

"reset limits" doesn't work with one switch
by Wiethoff, Helge 10 Nov '22

10 Nov '22

Hi everyone, I have a problem with the "reset limits" function: On a device with many sensors (305) I can't recalculate the limits using "reset limits" in the device-preferences. Normally a note with the message appears: "Reset limits for Current sensor foo"; they will be recalculated on the next discovery run." But with this device this message does not appear. Of course I don't know if it has to do with the number of sensors but it is the only device where the problem occurs. Can I reset the limit values directly via the database? Thanks! Helge

Rule not being ignored
by McGranahan, Jamen (VU) 07 Nov '22

07 Nov '22

One of our servers keeps reporting that its down and then back up a minute later. I've tried to ignore the alert within Observium but that only lasted for less than a day. I even put in a date to ignore the alert until 2026. That lasted for a couple of days. But we are once again getting bombarded with these alerts. I don't want to disable the alert since we have over 30 systems registered. Ideas or suggestions?

mitel monitoring?
by Alex Rubenstein 26 Oct '22

26 Oct '22

I am looking to monitor a variety of Mitel telephony devices. I've added one and auto discovered it. I did note that the MIBs I could download from the device are precisely the same ones already located in /opt/observium/mibs/mitel When auto discovery occurs, there is no mention of anything Mitel in the device. Is there something I have to do to push observium to enable Mitel stuff?

changes to $config['frontpage']['custom_traffic']['ids'] ignored
by Eric W. Bates (he) 19 Oct '22

19 Oct '22

We replaced our edge routers over the weekend and I updated the list of port id's in $config['frontpage']['custom_traffic']['ids'] with the new ones from the new routers; however, the custom graph on the front page hasn't changed and still lists the old interfaces (on the now shut-down routers). What else do I need to do? Thanks. -- Clark 159a 508/289-3112

The observium team guided me to find an error when creating an alert. For the notifications sent by email to show the description or name in an interface, not port_label.... do we have to apply a template to the notifications? explain [image: image.png] -- Saluda cordialmente

Yes. The issue is the subinterfaces do not show up as Ethernet (ethernetCsmacd) Click on one of the subinterfaces, click the “Data” button on the right hand side, and see what the “ifType” is on this device, here’s an Arista for example: [cid:image001.png@01D8DFC3.B46B3050] Whatever that ifType is, add that as an “or” for ifType selection criteria. ________________________________ Spencer J.

Graph Gaps and Scaling questions
by Daniel Benson 11 Oct '22

11 Oct '22

list, I have been working all angles to scale my observium CE instance running well but seem to be failing. By failing I am referring to the classic gaps in graphs for all my devices. I am running on esxi with 16 cores @ 2.40GHz, 16G of ram, SSD SAS Raid and continue to have gaps. Most recently I have pushed sql to its own instance in hopes of working around potential IO issues but that didnt help. What I do see is that my ram use is very high, I am guessing from the discovery process twice a day. When my ram use is lower throughout the day, I have no gaps. I am monitoring 6000ports on 190 devices. Should I be using north of 16G of ram in my env? I am happy to add more but all my reading indicates that observium is not RAM intense. My last attempt will be to move the RRDs to a ram disk but my RRDs are almost 16G at this time which I am guessing is part of the problem. Maybe it is time to clean house. Any insight would be appreciated. db

APC UPS Monitoring
by Alex Rubenstein 11 Oct '22

11 Oct '22

One of the status indicators on APC UPS's is "Diagnostic Results." It is shown as: Diagnostics Results (last 2022-10-10) ok I am looking to set up an alert where if the last diag date is more than N days ago, alert me. But since the date is somehow wrapped into the status name, rather than the status result, I am not sure how to do this. Any pointers?

Show port descriptions also on Ports -> Map view

Hi We are running Observium Professional r12071 I noticed that if we set up a description for our network ports, these are shown on the views of the switch under Ports -> Basic Ports -> Details Ports -> Neighbours Is there a way to also show it on *Ports -> Map* for the local port (blue bubble) and the remote port (grey bubble)?

Weird results from stacked graph.
by David Milton 08 Oct '22

08 Oct '22

Hello, We have been seeing some results in our stacked graphs that do not appear to make sense. Initially we thought this was because the maximum values for the two values occurred at different points in time. That cannot be the whole issue because even if you take the sum of every pair of numbers the maximum aggregate must at least equal the maximum value of one of the two series. This graph shows the problem: How can we have a maximum value of 97.4M but an aggregate maximum of 55.7M? It seems that maximum aggregate should also at least be 97.4M. What’s happening here? Thanks, Dave.

Alerter frequency
by Alex Rubenstein 04 Oct '22

04 Oct '22

Greetings, I have been setting up Observium for a client for the last few months and I have been loving it. Amazingly flexible and reliable. I am quite pleased. I am running 22.8.12241, Subscription. I know that Observium does not support SNMP Traps and understand why. So, I have set up syslog on the services to push events and they are caught by Observium. This works fine. I have now also created syslog alerts and this works fine too. My issue is the delay from when the syslog comes to the server, and the alert goes out. I found this old mailing list entry: https://lists.observium.org/hyperkitty/list/observium@lists.observium.org/m… Adam's reply was: "We have to wait for a cron job to be run to send the alerts, because we can't do it in the syslog processing script. Iirc you can cron alerter.php to do it more frequently!" This is an acceptable solution to me, but I have a couple question: 1. Is there risk with how often this is run? If I cron'ed this for every minute, is there a risk of some sort of collision with the 5 minute poller? 1. Is it possible, as a feature request, to call alerter.php -h from syslog.php when an entry comes in? While I think Observium is an excellent piece of software, I wish it had just a little more ability to handle real-time alerts coming in. There are many situations that occur where an outage or event could be substantially shorter than the poller interval (like, a short UPS power loss), and I would like to have a little better quasi-real time alerting of these events. Thanks for you consideration.

Temperature sensor question
by Kleber Cristiano Santilli Coelho 30 Sep '22

30 Sep '22

Good Morning! I hope you're all well. I apologize if the question is inappropriate. I'm developing an IOT module and I use the "ENTITY" MIB for the sensors. I saw that Observium handles this MIB automatically, using the entPhySensorType OID to distinguish the sensor types and it works great, except for the temperature sensor, entPhySensorType value 8. I would like to understand if this has any special reason to adapt my code. Thank you, congratulations on the software. -- Kleber Coelho Campus Fernando Costa Universidade de São Paulo (19) 3565-4321

APC's universal I/O (UPS temp/humidity sensors) not showing in
by Steve Costaras 26 Sep '22

26 Sep '22

Have observium polling various APC ups's (AP9631 NMC cards). Observium correctly polls the battery temperatures, but when adding in probes to the universal I/O ports on the AP9631 (just trying with the temp sensor currently) I do not see the data being plotted on observium. Is this supposed to work? I don't have the humidity sensor currently (was trying to test with the temp sensor first before buying the temp/humidity combined sensors for the units). Would really like to get this data tracked for environmental data logging per rack (have a ups per rack). The data does show up in an snmpwalk: # snmpbulkwalk -v2c -c xxx yy.yy.yy.yy .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.1.0 = INTEGER: 2 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.1.1.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.1.2.1 = INTEGER: 2 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.2.1.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.2.2.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.3.1.1 = STRING: "Port 1 Temp 1" iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.3.2.1 = STRING: "Port 2 Temp 2" iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.4.1.1 = STRING: "Port 1" iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.4.2.1 = STRING: "Port 2" iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.5.1.1 = INTEGER: 75 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.5.2.1 = INTEGER: 90 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.6.1.1 = INTEGER: 24 (Port 1 temp 1 sensor in C) iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.6.2.1 = INTEGER: 32 (port 2 temp 2 sensor in C) iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.7.1.1 = INTEGER: -1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.7.2.1 = INTEGER: -1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.8.1.1 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.8.2.1 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.9.1.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.9.2.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.10.1.1 = INTEGER: 2 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.2.1.10.2.1 = INTEGER: 2 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.3.0 = INTEGER: 2 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.1.1.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.1.2.1 = INTEGER: 2 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.2.1.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.2.2.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.3.1.1 = STRING: "Port 1 Temp 1" iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.3.2.1 = STRING: "Port 2 Temp 2" iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.4.1.1 = STRING: "Port 1" iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.4.2.1 = STRING: "Port 2" iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.5.1.1 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.5.2.1 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.6.1.1 = INTEGER: 10 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.6.2.1 = INTEGER: 10 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.7.1.1 = INTEGER: 40 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.7.2.1 = INTEGER: 40 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.8.1.1 = INTEGER: 60 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.8.2.1 = INTEGER: 60 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.9.1.1 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.9.2.1 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.10.1.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.10.2.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.11.1.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.11.2.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.12.1.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.12.2.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.13.1.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.13.2.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.14.1.1 = INTEGER: -1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.14.2.1 = INTEGER: -1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.15.1.1 = INTEGER: -1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.15.2.1 = INTEGER: -1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.16.1.1 = INTEGER: -1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.16.2.1 = INTEGER: -1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.17.1.1 = INTEGER: -1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.17.2.1 = INTEGER: -1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.18.1.1 = INTEGER: -1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.18.2.1 = INTEGER: -1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.19.1.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.19.2.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.20.1.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.20.2.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.21.1.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.21.2.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.22.1.1 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.25.1.4.1.22.2.1 = INTEGER: 1

upgrading older versions
by Helmut Fritz 11 Sep '22

11 Sep '22

Hello, We have an instance of Observium running on Ubuntu 16.04. I would like to bring this OS somewhat current, say to 20.04 or maybe even 22.04. At the same time, our Observium version on this is 20.1.10233. Would there be an issue upgrading the OS with the current version of Observium running on them? I know a fresh install would be best, but then what is the migration procedure? Are all alerts and configurations moved in the migration (I would assume so, but want to understand this as it is a lot of work to recreate all of this). Is there an issue going in one jump from 20.1.10233 to latest, or should this be done in stages? Should Observium or the OS be dealt with first (concerned about php/mysql versions matching Observium versions, etc)? We are a Pro subscriber if it matters. Thx!

question about alert checker TEST
by Edvinas Kairys 27 Aug '22

27 Aug '22

Hello, I'm using alert checker with quite standard check: ifInOctets_perc ge 90 ifOutOctets_perc ge 90 But sometimes the SNMP returns incorrect value like 134651%, especially in Nexus devices. I would like to prevent that with inserting test value like: ifInOctets_perc le 100. But i'm wondering if it's possible to do this in single rule in Observium that would look like this: (ifInOctets_perc ge 90 and ifInOctets_perc le 100) or (ifOutOctets_perc ge 90 and ifOutOctets_perc le 100) Or i need to create separate rules for both groups ?

Stormshield issues

Hi, on several Stormshield firewalls, I read some issues: * the firewalls are detected as Generic devices, while some time ago they were correctly detected as Stormshield firewalls * some ports report wrong speed: e.g. on 8 gigabit ports same appliance, some appears with 4Mbps, 20Mbps or 1Gbps, even by correcting them in its properties The second one isn't simply a cosmetic issue, because threshold alerts are generated with ordinary traffic.

MySQL IO Wait
by Lars Joergensen 02 Aug '22

02 Aug '22

Hey list We keep adding devices to Observium, and it seems we're getting close to some tipping point for MySQL performance. Looking at output from "top" we frequently see high iowait: [cid:image001.png@01D89790.EF319B00] Looking at iotop, it seems that MySQL is the aggressor here: [cid:image002.png@01D89790.EF319B00] We figured syslog was the culprit at first, and tried disabling that for a while to see if stuff died down. It did not. Been playing a little with mytop, and even though we have a QPS around 780, it's not possible for me to nail down what queries are hogging the IO on the server. I googled around and did some changes to the InnoDB, and though I saw improvements, they were not as massive as I had hoped. This is what I currently have changed from defaults: [mysqld] # This is a little too much for the installed 8G in the machine and will be adjusted at a later time. Just trying stuff out now. innodb_buffer_pool_size=6G # We have fast SSD drives on vSAN innodb_io_capacity=1000 # Don't flush file write so often, be more relaxed. innodb-flush-method=O_DIRECT_NO_FSYNC So I'm kind of stumped here. It's not killing Observium totally just yet, but we have experienced some outages this week and will probably see more as we keep adding devices. Any recommendations will be much appreciated.

Observium Community Edition 20.9.10731
by Stuart Dyer 28 Jul '22

28 Jul '22

Hi Everyone, Need some advice. I'm running Observium Observium Community Edition 20.9.10731 on Debian 8.4 and I want to move this to a new server. I tried to update to the latest community edition but when I ran discovery it could not find any modules so I backed out of the upgrade. Can I build a new server, install the latest community then move the database over or do I need to install same versions of Observium on both servers ?

IPv6 total graphs
by Matteo Sgalaberni 18 Jul '22

18 Jul '22

Hello, I'm using the Port description Parsing to aggregate graphs in the section "Transit" and "Core". It's very useful so I can know the total traffic that is forwarded on my network. On all devices I have also the IPv6 graphs inside the device interface. Question1) I would like to see the total traffic differentiated by ipv4/ipv6 on the same way of tab "Transit/Core". I want to know the total traffic IPv6 that is forwarded globally or by transits. Question 2) The graph "Device total traffic in bits/sec." report the total traffic I immagine. Is is possible to have that total traffic of the device differentiated by ipv4/ipv6? Thanks Matteo

I'm not sure if this is the correct manner, but I'm looking for some kind of support. We are using Observium with ops genie, and around March of this year our Alerts are way less than normal. We'd get 10-25 a day, no almost nothing. I have 0 background in any database knowledge, and can really only fumble my way through Linux commands.

Windows Services
by Stuart Dyer 11 Jul '22

11 Jul '22

Hi Everyone, I'm on an old build of the community edition, 20.9.10731 (22nd September 2020). Noted in the demo on the website Observium can monitor windows services on windows servers. If I upgrade to the latest community edition does that come with the ability to monitor windows services or do I need to go to the paid edition ? if so can I use an alert checker to send an email if a specific windows service changes its status from running to anything other than running ?

Distributed Polling
by Milton Ngan 05 Jul '22

05 Jul '22

Are many people using Distributed Polling? We are just playing around with it now. How many devices can you typically poll per thread in under 5 minutes? Some of this is also a function of how much latency you have between your pollers and your devices and how "slow" your devices are. But we are having to throw a lot threads (>200) at this to ensure we get our 1200+ devices polling under 5 minutes. The RRD and DB backends are not the bottleneck, it is purely the latency of the SNMP polling we need to overcome. The longest devices take between 150-200s depending on what else is hitting it at the time (e.g discovery + poller). So we need a fair number threads just to get these out of the way. I was wondering if sorting the most expensive devices first could help avoid getting two slow devices back to back. Also, it would be nice to have the system use a queue to schedule the work rather than a hard partition. This avoids the problem of losing 1/Nth of your devices when you lose a poller. With a queue you would just lose 1/Nth of the threads. If you had enough spare capacity you could ride through the downtime of a single poller. Cheer Milton

Hello, The new Network Traffic Map did work the other day - great. Yesterday it stopped working in our installation (22.6.12145) with an error 500. I was wondering if it's our installation that's the problem, or an issue with Observium code ?

Custom OIDS and billing
by David Milton 07 Jun '22

07 Jun '22

Hello, We are using the Juniper DCU MIB to track member traffic for billing purposes. We have two upstream transit providers and have created custom OID entries for each member and transit provider for IPv4 and IPv6. The end result is four custom OIDs per member. Ideally we would like to use the traffic accounting module and assign the four custom OID graphs to one bill but can’t figure out how. Is there a way to combine the four OIDs into a single stacked graph so we can see the aggregate of all traffic to both providers? Is there an alternative way to do this short of doing it manually with rrd? Lastly, is there any planned support for the Juniper DCU MIB so we can use this to monitor members transit traffic? Thanks, Dave Milton SRNet Operations

PHP 8.1 & CE 22.5
by Mark Kamichoff 05 Jun '22

05 Jun '22

Hi - I had a happy persona/home Observium CE 19.x install on Debian (testing) running w/MySQL 5.5 and PHP 7.0 that I finally decided to upgrade to MariaDB 10.6 / PHP 8.1 and am running into some issues. 1) I did the PHP 8.1 upgrade first without touching anything else. I started getting the following: % /opt/observium/discovery.php -u PHP Fatal error: Uncaught ValueError: mysqli_query(): Argument #2 ($query) cannot be empty in /opt/observium/includes/db/mysqli.inc.php:291 Stack trace: #0 /opt/observium/includes/db/mysqli.inc.php(291): mysqli_query() #1 /opt/observium/includes/db.inc.php(225): dbCallQuery() #2 /opt/observium/includes/sql-config.inc.php(97): dbQuery() #3 /opt/observium/discovery.php(19): include('...') #4 {main} thrown in /opt/observium/includes/db/mysqli.inc.php on line 291 I get something similar in the web interface: [Sun Jun 05 14:59:53.435049 2022] [php:error] [pid 3255678] [client 2620:6:2003:105:2d8:61ff:fe0f:853:54778] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught ValueError: mysqli_query(): Argument #2 ($query) cannot be empty in /opt/observium/includes/db/mysqli.inc.php:291\nStack trace:\n#0 /opt/observium/includes/db/mysqli.inc.php(291): mysqli_query()\n#1 /opt/observium/includes/db.inc.php(225): dbCallQuery()\n#2 /opt/observium/includes/db/mysqli.inc.php(391): dbQuery()\n#3 /opt/observium/includes/common.inc.php(176): dbFetchRow()\n#4 /opt/observium/includes/common.inc.php(300): get_obs_attrib()\n#5 /opt/observium/includes/sql-config.inc.php(75): get_db_version()\n#6 /opt/observium/html/index.php(13): include('...')\n#7 {main}\n thrown in /opt/observium/includes/db/mysqli.inc.php on line 291 2) I decided to upgrade to Observium CE 22.5. No change. I even cleaned up my config.php and removed some obsolete items. 3) I upgraded MySQL 5.5 -> MariaDB 10.6. No change. The CE 22.5 announcement indicated PHP8 should be supported now. However, I'm wondering if that doesn't include PHP 8.1. Does anyone have CE 22.5 running successfully on Debian with PHP 8.1? If so, did you have to tweak anything to get it to work? If there's something obvious in the docs I've missed please just post a link and indicate RTFM ;) Thanks in advance!

Juniper DCU MIB
by David Milton 04 Jun '22

04 Jun '22

Helo, We are using the Juniper DCU MIB to track member traffic for billing purposes. We have two upstream service providers and have created custom OID entries for each provider for IPv4 and IPv6 and each member. That gives us 4 custom OIDs per member. I was hoping to use the traffic accounting module and assign the 4 custom OID graphs to one bill but can’t figure out how. Another option would be to take the four graphs and produce a stacked graph containing the 4 graph values. Or would a group work? Is what I want to do possible with Observium? Is there any planned support for the Juniper DCU MIB so we can use this to monitor members transit traffic? Thanks, Dave.

Alert emails from pollers
by Lars Joergensen 02 Jun '22

02 Jun '22

Hi A new discovery from our partitioned pollers today: Alert emails are sent out from the poller, not the main Observium instance. We can work around it, but since we have pollers in some pretty firewalled networks, it's going to be an effort. We always thought of pollers as just data collection agents. Can this behavior be changed in the configuration somewhere, or is it just the way it works?

Pollers not picking up orders
by Lars Joergensen 01 Jun '22

01 Jun '22

Hey list I think we discussed this before, but I forget the answer and my searching skills fail me. We have several pollers returning data to a main instance. When we create new devices and tell them to be handled by for example "poller2", we can see that the order to do so is created in the database. But it's never picked up by the poller. Is there a cronjob I need to set up to fix this?
