svn Checksum mismatch error
by Johnson, Edward A. 13 Aug '15

13 Aug '15

We have been running Observium under RHEL 6 for over a year now. After one of the last updates, I noticed that php 5.4 or newer was needed. Unfortunately, php 5.3.3 is current in RHN but I was able to update to 5.4 using a different repository. Then I had an issue with xcache not being available for 5.4. This brings me to my current problem. I decided to go with the approved distro, Debian. My problem is that when I try to execute "svn co http://svn.observium.org/svn/observium/branches/stable observium", I get a few files and then randomly get the error “Checksum mismatch for ‘/opt/observium/somefilename.extension’ If I blow away the /opt/observium directory and run the command again, a different file gives me that error.

'Duplicate entry' issues on vlans_fdb
by Aaron Mayfield 12 Aug '15

12 Aug '15

Just today I updated to the latest and greatest (0.15.8.6882). I was several revisions behind and several database updates were done as a result. After the update, I noticed my poller.php processes started taking all the CPU, started getting gaps in the graphs, etc. I noticed thousands of these entries in db.log: [2015/08/11 22:01:02 -0500] poller.php(21342): Failed dbQuery (#1062 - Duplicate entry '54-2083-6ef88537f91f' for key 'dev_vlan_mac'), Query: INSERT INTO `vlans_fdb` (`device_id`,`vlan_id`,`port_id`,`mac_address`,`fdb_status`) VALUES ('54','2083','220115','6ef88537f91f','learned') [2015/08/11 22:01:02 -0500] poller.php(21342): Failed dbQuery (#1062 - Duplicate entry '54-2084-005056a927c2' for key 'dev_vlan_mac'), Query: INSERT INTO `vlans_fdb` (`device_id`,`vlan_id`,`port_id`,`mac_address`,`fdb_status`) VALUES ('54','2084','220115','005056a927c2','learned') [2015/08/11 22:01:02 -0500] poller.php(21342): Failed dbQuery (#1062 - Duplicate entry '54-2084-a66aaf0bf4cc' for key 'dev_vlan_mac'), Query: INSERT INTO `vlans_fdb` (`device_id`,`vlan_id`,`port_id`,`mac_address`,`fdb_status`) VALUES ('54','2084','220115','a66aaf0bf4cc','learned') [2015/08/11 22:01:02 -0500] poller.php(21342): Failed dbQuery (#1062 - Duplicate entry '54-2085-228a3d193c66' for key 'dev_vlan_mac'), Query: INSERT INTO `vlans_fdb` (`device_id`,`vlan_id`,`port_id`,`mac_address`,`fdb_status`) VALUES ('54','2085','220115','228a3d193c66','learned') [2015/08/11 22:01:02 -0500] poller.php(21342): Failed dbQuery (#1062 - Duplicate entry '54-2086-0ee7c729643b' for key 'dev_vlan_mac'), Query: INSERT INTO `vlans_fdb` (`device_id`,`vlan_id`,`port_id`,`mac_address`,`fdb_status`) VALUES ('54','2086','220115','0ee7c729643b','learned') If I run a poller process against a switch manually, everything seems to run fine with the exception of the fdb-table module, which is taking over 600 seconds to run.

Error: Blank Page - Alert Checks
by Nate Mellendorf 09 Aug '15

09 Aug '15

Good evening, everyone. I've been having some trouble with the alert checks portion of Observium for quite some time now. Whenever I click Alert Checks from the global dropdown menu, an empty white page is displayed. This was working before, and (unfortunately) I'm not certain when it stopped. I know It's not related to any recent updates, as it's been this way for a few months now. We just haven't had time to investigate it further. Example URL: http://obsevium.testing.local/alert_checks/ I've renamed the following files in hopes that it was a simple corruption issue. However, the issue still persists. $ sudo svn update && php discovery.php -u Restored 'html/pages/alert_log.inc.php' Restored 'html/pages/alert_checks.inc.php' Restored 'html/pages/alerts.inc.php' Restored 'html/pages/alert_check.inc.php' At revision 6859. -- Database is up to date. Has anyone seen this before? I'd be more than happy to provide additional debug output. Images: Thank you.

Hi Is there a way to calculate in Alerts Tests? I think it's better to know temperature is quite close to sensor limit than it has already reached. At the moment we are checking temperature with "|sensor_value greater @sensor_limit|" but would like to be informed a little bit earlier|.| || |I can imagine to do it like that "|||sensor_value greater @sensor_limit - 2|" or "|||sensor_value greater @sensor_limit| * 0,95"| || Andre

County entries Google vs MapQuest and their representation on the Location menu . [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]
by Peter.Hine＠familycourt.gov.au 05 Aug '15

05 Aug '15

I saw a comment in "includes/geolocation.inc.php" about sorting the difference between county and states. I was looking cause i'd like a cleaner looking location menu. so i hijacked a device on the test system and changed it's location to "10 Downing St, London SW1A 2AA, United Kingdom" I see that we have different results depending on who we ask. Geolocation (MAPQUEST) -> [51.503440, -0.127708] United Kingdom (Country), England (State), Unknown (County), London (City) Geolocation (GOOGLE) -> [51.503363, -0.127625] United Kingdom (Country), Unknown (State), Greater London (County), London (City) So a few questions. 1) Is google preferred (especially for people who have sites in a Country that has Counties). 2) Are people happy to have Counties and States on the same level in the menu. 3) Are there countries that have BOTH Counties and States or are they mutually exclusive. 4) Do people need/want the double name entries on the last location menu (two pictures attached to show the difference for what i mean). I have a simple system with ony 38 locations. People may have lots more where this has an advantage.

Question about aggregated traffic graph for Dell DRAC
by Steffie Morris 04 Aug '15

04 Aug '15

Hi, i have some Dell DRAC's added to observium, and i am seeing some strange things. The aggegrated graph from the overview page of the device gives an error "error Drawing graph". However the individual graphs per port are created just fine. the poller.php -d doesn't give any errors that i can see. Another question is probably about all the metrics received from DRAC, i have a few OSses that have the Dell ISM (Integrated Service Module) installed. This allows the NIC's from the OS to be seen in the DRAC web interface. Would observium be able to read these ports as wel? Tnx! Steffie

On the Ports page for different model switches, there are also differences. For cisco it is able to display the (untagged) vlan, but for some switch vendors it will say in text Dot1Q. Perhaps because the vendor will return a native and a untagged vlan (even if they are the same?) Just trying to understand what i am looking at, and how the interpret :)

Has anyone run FreeRADIUS on the same server as Observium? Any issues? I'm running on CentOS 6.6 and am wondering if anything will "step on" Observium; MySQL settings, maybe?

Configuring map interface on new observium installation
by Andi Qirjazi 31 Jul '15

31 Jul '15

Hi, I have just installed & configured observium for the first time. The first two devices are added and seems working, but I'm having problem displaying these devices on the map. All the time there is a blue sign on the middle on Atlantic ocean, it doesn't matter what I configure as device location. Please any idea how to configure the map? I have tried all the possible configurations at /opt/observium/config.php settings but with no success. This installation is behind a proxy server, but I have allowed all the traffic from observium host and I don't see any traffic from this host towards proxy server. I did the following configuration on monitored devices for SNMP settings as follow: R_TR#sh run | s snmp snmp-server community aaaaaaa RO snmp-server ifindex persist snmp-server location Berlin, DE snmp-server contact bbbbbbbbbb at Observium main page, at location tab, is listed Berlin, DE (or Rome, IT another device) but no indication on the map for both devices. regarding proxy server configuration, at \opt\observium\config.php file I have the following settings: //configure proxy server settings $config['http proxy'] = "myproxy:8080"; with no username and password, because I have allowed all the traffic from observium host and it has internet access, because I did manually update and it worked normally. Please could you send me a sample of a working map configuration? I have the following configuration regarding geolocation at config.php file: // $config['frontpage']['map']['region'] = " https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/gall$ $config['geocoding']['enable'] =TRUE; $config['geocoding']['dns'] = FALSE; $config['location_menu_geocoded'] = FALSE; $config['geocoding']['api'] = ' www.googleapis.com/geolocation/v1/geolocate?key=aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa'; I even tried with just 'google' as API, but it doesn't change anything. thanks in advance, Andi Qirjazi

"A lot of ports": Error Drawing Graph
by Wiethoff, Helge 28 Jul '15

28 Jul '15

Hi all, my problem is, that a few overall traffic graphs aren‘t displayed, since updating from r6722 (2015-07-21) to r6766. This only occurs with devices that have more than about 100 ports. (These are not incredibly many ports, but in this case the problem occurs in this magnitude.) I tried to update the device by discovery.php and poller.php without success. The debugging message (&debug=1) says that the rrd command fails: RRD_STATUS[FALSE]. When i copy the RRD-Cmd and execute it within the shell, it works fine. Interestingly, for a device with 98 ports the problem occurs only for the large graphs shown (as can be seen in the attached screenshot grapherror.png). Has anyone of you an idea? That would be nice :) Regards, Helge ________________________________ Helge Wiethoff Medienzentrum Telefon: +49 (234) 968 8717 Fax: +49 (234) 968 3453 E-Mail: Wiethoff(a)tfh-bochum.de Technische Fachhochschule Georg Agricola für Rohstoff, Energie und Umwelt zu Bochum Staatlich anerkannte Fachhochschule der DMT-Gesellschaft für Lehre und Bildung mbH Herner Straße 45 44787 Bochum http://www.tfh-bochum.de ________________________________ Träger: DMT-Gesellschaft für Lehre und Bildung mbH Sitz der Gesellschaft: Bochum Registergericht: Amtsgericht Bochum Handelsregister: B 4052 Geschäftsführung: Prof. Dr. Jürgen Kretschmann (Vorsitzender) Manfred Freitag

Restrict config access to users
by Spencer Ryan 28 Jul '15

28 Jul '15

Hey Adam (and all), I asked about this previously but never heard back. I'd really like a way to give people the ability to see a device but not see the config tab. We've got rancid integration turned on, and I want to give specific users access to see devices, but they shouldn't be able to see the device configs. Hopefully it would be easy to do (maybe say users with a level of < X can't see that tab) Thanks! *Spencer Ryan* | Senior Systems Administrator | sryan(a)arbor.net *Arbor Networks* +1.734.794.5033 (d) | +1.734.846.2053 (m) www.arbornetworks.com

Hi All, this is a random question, I’ve just noticed on my Observium that the is no Port speeds for any of our Ethernet ports on our debian servers ? but also, the is no Ports speeds for any of our VLAN interfaces on our mikrotik switches either ? I don’t have any event-logs showing the speeds changed or anything? where should i begin looking why the speeds have just vanished? Regards Simon

Design idea
by Zach Underwood 28 Jul '15

28 Jul '15

Before we spend to much time setting something up I want to make sure that I was on the right track. We have many wireless ubnt unifi APs and there snmp on the APs themselves sucks. But the wireless controller does have a nice API what print out a json output listing every client connect to AP managed by the controller. The json has the mac, connection time, connection duration, AP currently connection to and much more. The idea is to use the unix/linux agent on the controller to connection to API on localhost and download json and clean data up. The observium can poll the unix agent and chart/display the data. Is this crazy or am I on the right track.

Hello Observium community, I am using Observium Professional version and I have some computers that only support IPMI protocol and not SNMP. Observium's wiki is very ambiguous and there is not enough information about usage of IPMI in Observium. Did anyone manage to successfully use IPMI together with Observium? It would be very nice to get more information about this and maybe even a guide on how you add a device that only supports IPMI protocol. Best regards, Henry Collins

Scheduled downtime or maintence
by Brad Bendy 25 Jul '15

25 Jul '15

Hi, Ive got a customer location that they have to reboot machines nightly (old Asterisk boxes that have not been upgraded yet), and so obviously this throws a wrench in on alerts. Im not seeing anything in the documentation to where you can schedule downtime or maintenance, like Nagios let's say does. One thing I thought of was disable the poller during this window, then enable it back with a script, pretty janky but that would work for now. Is this something planned on the roadmap and have others shown any interest in this? Thanks

|Hi, sorry to here this - never fun to see work used in a wrong way. But can't you just send the commit message and not the diff?

Hello Community, I upgraded recently (a couple of times this week) and our support desk just reported that the ARP/NDP Table part of observium doesn't load. Nothing errors in the apache error log.

Revision not updating?

"Enabled & Down" no longer works

Observium 0.15.7.6732 I use the "Enabled & Down" in the ports screen to quickly ignore devices that show up as down on the homescreen, but it seems to be broken now. I think that this has been the case for several versions. Cody

Displaying ports sensors with ports
by Louis Bailleul 23 Jul '15

23 Jul '15

Hi, I am monitoring an Arista 7508E with 4x7500E-36Q-LC line cards. This are 40GB ports that can be subdivided into 10GB ports. This represent a maximum of 576 10GB ports, each of them having several sensors (See below what the Observium inventory reports). Right now, these sensors are graphed all together with the chassis sensors making graphs that are not really useful (See attached). Is it/would it be possible, to display each sensors in the detailed view of the ports instead ? * 1. Xcvr Slot 1Xcvr Slot 1 * 1. QSFP-40G-SR4Xcvr for Ethernet4/1 [Serial: XMD13450006W] * 1.

Hello Community, I have some questions regarding email alerts with Observium: 1. I would like to know whether it is possible to get Observium to alert different email addresses for certain triggers? Possible via the config file? 2. Will Observium try and email the "contact" email address in the SNMP field "contact"? Thanks, Rudolf

Question about traffic graphs
by Talk Jesus 22 Jul '15

22 Jul '15

Hi, My data center bills me based on 95th percentile and Mbps, but Observium shows traffic as bits/second. My monthly allowance is 100Mbps, how would I convert that to the bits/second in 95th? They also state they bill me on bandwidth utilization, not data used. Finally, they state they use 5 minute intervals for data collection, I guess that's also called 'polling' if I'm not mistaken? I could not find any info on how often the data is collected. Just to clarify, if I got the calculation right - 100Mbps = 30TB /mo (rounded off).

RRD graphs legend
by Attila Nagy 22 Jul '15

22 Jul '15

Hi All! I was thinking whether there is some way to make the graphs more user friendly. I am talking about aggregated RRDTool graphs that have more data lines in it. One example (as seen in the attached screenshot) is the typical filesystem usage graph of a linux host, that has a legend below it, but as the colors are not quite unique (at more than 5-6 data lines some colors will overlap inevitably) you can't really find out which line is which. If you want to find out which data line has that glitch that you saw in the aggregated graph, there is no other way than looking at each data separately. Is there a way/plan to overcome this limitation? Regards, Tylla

OVS integration plugin for observium available?
by gmail 21 Jul '15

21 Jul '15

Hi, Is there any plugin for observium to monitor traffic that's being handled by a OpenVswitch? We have built an openstack-environment and it's built on openvswitch with neutron, I would love to see the integration to be able to see traffic on OVS-ports. The only option we have today is going zenoss monitoring, from what i've found out there on google atleast. If there's no solution for this I would suggest someone building one as the lack of monitoring openstack and virtualswitches are big. Thanks /Tobias

no rancid integration
by Ryan Milton 20 Jul '15

I attempted the rancid integration from the configuration options. I had a separate rancid configuration that I attempted to modify following the guide that seems to have broken my rancid.

Observium Rocks
by Robert Williams 20 Jul '15

20 Jul '15

Hi, I just wanted to say that Observium rocks. Having just completed 4 weeks of back-to-back network upgrades (replacing most of our core hardware across 4 different sites) we have found Observium invaluable as a means of identifying issues, immediately, for new hardware which has just been installed. As well as spotting BGP sessions with issues, ports with CRC errors, or light levels which are out of scope. Requiring the least information from us, for the most detailed output back to us in return, coupled with a summary of ‘what needs to be fixed’ in a single page. Over the years we have been using it, we have watched it grow from a nice little auto-detecting utility, into an extremely powerful monitoring system. So, rather than posting a bug or feature request, I just thought I’d say thank you to the team who feed into this product. You have saved me from more than one unnecessary headache, in the last 4 weeks alone! Cheers :) Robert Williams Custodian Data Centre Email: Robert(a)CustodianDC.com http://www.CustodianDC.com

Thank you all Observium developers.
by Jolyon Ansuz 20 Jul '15

20 Jul '15

Hello all, I’d like to thank the developers of Observium, whomever you are. I’ve run up a VMWare Ubuntu server 14.x with Observium to replace an ageing and unsupported Cacti installation here. We're running Many(TM) core, distribution and edge routers and switches and this install is looking at every port I can get SNMP to. We use Enterasys/Extreme and a couple of Cisco devices. The alpha prototype has moved to beta and people here are liking what they are seeing. Soon, with some more documentation, I’ll elevate this to production. So, whilst I have hundreds of switches to deal with, this means thousands of ports to deal with and as any good lazy administrator, I found it was easier to utilise my database development experience and go straight to the databases, which I now offer to the group as examples, yes Examples(TM) for others to learn from. You will require some database knowledge to grok these. Sincerely, Jolyon Ansuz Senior Network and Communications Administrator Communications Infrastructure Information Technology University of New England Armidale NSW 2351 P: +61 2 6773 3568 M: +61 412 735 836 L: jansuz @ une.edu.au This message contains confidential information and is intended only for the individual named.

Alert emails header
by Fabrice Charlier 17 Jul '15

17 Jul '15

Hi all, Since last update of observium professional version that we did last monday, alert emails are not anymore accepted by our mailing list service (based on Sympa software). After investigations by our mail system administrator, it seems that problem is coming from fields ordering in observium mails header: "From", "Date" et "Message-ID" should be before others fields prefixed by "X-". Another problem is that email address in "From" field should be between "< >". Example of mail generated by observium here: http://pastebin.com/tiJFG10e If we modify this example like this http://pastebin.com/DryMB9MJ, it's correctly delivered by our mailing list service. I suppose that some modifications have been done in observium mail system in last weeks because it's a very new problem for us.

upgrade to PRo version
by Samarasinghe, Sujith 16 Jul '15

16 Jul '15

Hi , I am trying out Observium for our network monitoring software. One of the option I have seen is alerts are not working on CE version . Do we need to purchase Professional membership to enable that function? I believe its GBK 150 per year . After we purchase professional version do we receive the path the receive the new installation repo and can the current testing CE version update to professional version seamlessly? Thanks, Sujith.

First CE installation: Authentication issues
by Ciro Iriarte 16 Jul '15

16 Jul '15

Hi!, I just upgraded my home test installation from old SVN version to CE edition and I'm having issues authenticating with http-auth. On the first try I get my own AuthName which has a value of "testing lab" but once I input the authentication info I get another box asking for authentication, with a new AuthName with value "Unauthorised access or use shall render the user liable to criminal and/or civil prosecution.". Can anybody tell me if authentication changed sin the single version times?. This is the configuration file that worked previusly: <VirtualHost *:80> DocumentRoot /opt/observium/html/ ServerName observium.lab.com CustomLog /opt/observium/logs/access_log combined ErrorLog /opt/observium/logs/error_log <Directory "/opt/observium/html/"> AllowOverride All Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews Includes Require all granted Order allow,deny Allow from all AuthType Kerberos AuthName "testing lab" KrbMethodNegotiate On KrbMethodK5Passwd On KrbAuthRealms LAB.COM Krb5KeyTab /etc/httpd/lab.keytab KrbLocalUserMapping On Require valid-user </Directory> </VirtualHost> Any pointers?

Reporting

Your software gets better and better. The metrics are wonderful but I spend a lot of time screenshotting them to send to our executives. Can you put a print button in? Or, even better, CRON a print job to send say a week/month/day’s worth of bandwidth on a specific port or server to an email address? That would be amazing. Or, is that something we could pay for and have added to the version(s) for everyone? I’m on subscription if that matters.

GeoLocation slightly off?
by Rudolf Hoehler 13 Jul '15

13 Jul '15

Hello Community, I've read through the archives and I've got my geo-location sysLocation string working. What I cannot find an answer on is why the Latitude/Longitude insists on being slightly different from the actual co-ordinteas that I specify. As you can see in the screen shot, Observium parses the SysLocation fine and passes the exact correct values to MAPQUEST. Where do the slightly incorrect values come from? Thanks for any help guys. Regards, Rudolf
