Setup problem
by Richard Davies 07 Jun '13

07 Jun '13

Hi I am looking to implement snmp monitoring for the servers and network devices we support. I am looking at opennms and observium, and have them both running, monitoring some of our internal servers and devices. Observium is running on debian 7 - Wheezy. I believe I followed the debian specific installation instructions exactly, and Observium is up and running. I have configured it to monitor 2 of our Windows servers, 2 LINUX servers, a cisco router and sonicwall firewall. The initial discovery seems to have worked. However the olling does not seem to be working from cron. Looking at the observium.log > /opt/observium/discovery.php new June 5, 2013, 15:25 - 0 devices > discovered in 0. > 006 secs > /opt/observium/discovery.php new June 5, 2013, 15:30 - 0 devices > discovered in 0. > 007 secs > /opt/observium/discovery.php new June 5, 2013, 15:35 - 0 devices > discovered in 0. > 005 secs > ... discovery is running from cron every 5 mins as expected, but there is no mention in the log of poller.php running. I am sure I have been stupid and am missing something simple. All the graphs have a title Error Drawing Graph, guess that is because there is no data. Any help and advice would be appreciated, where to look to resolve the issues. Richard

Its largely unreliable because it relies on parts of the poller code working properly when run as the apache process. We rarely test it, and a lot of that code is horrific to debug. Adam.

frontpage event status > 24h?
by Rob VanHooren 07 Jun '13

07 Jun '13

hi, is there a quick way to adjust the frontage status to show events longer than 24h? i.e., tweak the time period for this config.php:$config['frontpage']['device_status']['ports'] = true; // Show the down ports (Last 24 hours) to be longer. dont' care so much about ports, but more the larger transient events (e.g., device rebooted). anyone? thanks!

Dear Team, Please do help me solve the following issues: Recently I added few more devices into the observium. To my surprise, when I click on Ports---> All Ports, the page show is blank.

Billing started giving unrealistic P95s
by Hynek Med 06 Jun '13

06 Jun '13

Probably somewhere between r3465 to r3981 (yes, I know) billing started producing wrong results. now at 4102, the situation remains the same. I do run the discovery script after each update. Graphs (quick graphs) look fine with real traffic accounted, but the calculated P95 is unrealistically low (something like 1/3 of the real P95, but this ratio is different for each case). Both with single VLAN and multiple VLAN bills. One of the bills (with id=1) works completely fine though. Any ideas where to look at / what to compare at the working case with the non-working case?

ExtremeXOS cpu and temp
by Marco Pirovano 06 Jun '13

Hello, I'm running Observium 0.13.6.4110 on FreeBSD 8.3 In our network we have a lot of ExtremeXOS switch, so I tried to write a code for CPU e Temperature monitoring. For Temperature OID = 1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.1.1.1.8.0 "Current temperature in degrees celcius measured inside device enclosure". For CPU OID = 1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.1.32.1.4.1.9.0 "The CPU utilization by system resources. This is the utilization of the system resources in the last 5 minutes". I test the script with: - BD8810 ExtremeXOS version 12.6.2.10 - X460 ExtremeXOS version 12.5.4.5 - X450e ExtremeXOS version 12.6.4.1 - X450a ExtremeXOS version 12.3.3.6 - X440 ExtremeXOS (Stack) version 15.1.4.3 For Memory Observium displayed the status without doing anything. This is my first tentative, so test and let me know. Thanks.

Add ignore iftype
by Kody 05 Jun '13

05 Jun '13

I have many of the following ports on Cisco voice routers with PRI voice lines. I would like add them to the ignore list but everything I try will keep finding them. Am I missing something? This is from the snmpwalk. ifDescr.536 = STRING: EFXS 50/0/400 *** this one router has 400+ of them and they all show up in the router *** ifDescr.537 = STRING: Voice Encapsulation (POTS) Peer: 20208 *** Same here many show up on each router *** Some of the lines I have added to see if it will ignore them. But no luck. $config['bad_iftype'][] = "EFXS"; $config['bad_iftype'][] = "EFXS 50/0/1"; $config['bad_if_regexp'][] = "EFXS.*"; Thanks for any help.

IP SLAs
by Robert Williams 05 Jun '13

05 Jun '13

Hi guys, I’ve just noticed that Observium is showing up Cisco IP SLA targets (didn’t know the feature was there!) – however it doesn’t actually log any values. All the entries IDs and targets are in there (correctly) though: [cid:image003.png@01CE61C9.7B3A9280] It would be cool if they worked (now I’ve spotted it!). They are all recording NaN so I’m not sure if there is simply something not setup correctly on the Cisco side in order for Observium to be able to read it; or maybe if there a ‘supported’ setup of the IPSLA entries on the Cisco I’m meant to follow? The existing config for them is pretty uninteresting: ip sla 139 icmp-echo 10.0.5.139 frequency 10 ip sla schedule 139 life forever start-time now ip sla reaction-configuration 139 react timeout threshold-type immediate action-type trapOnly If a debug would help then I’ll post one, but first I wanted to check if it’s just not fully supported yet (or a known issue). Just curious as I’ve only just noticed it, but it’s probably been there forever ☺ Cheers! Robert Williams Custodian Data Centre Email: Robert(a)CustodianDC.com http://www.CustodianDC.com

High latency poller performance
by Adam Armstrong 05 Jun '13

05 Jun '13

Hi All, I've been testing some improvements to the Poller when deployed in high latency situations (polling hosts on different continents, for example). It involved some SNMP tweaks to pull more OIDs per round-trip, but has varying support in different OSes, so we're making it a hardcoded per-OS attribute. It seems to work particularly well on Cisco IOS, IOS-XR and Arista devices. http://alpha.memetic.org/~adama/snaps/fwy8vmmvii.png Shows the performance gains on a selection of Cisco IOS devices. I'll be committing the changes later today, disabled as default. If anyone wants to test them for us before we enable them as default, give us a shout. adam.

Hello! First of all, thanks for a great monitoring tool! Second, apologies in advance if my topic has been covered elsewhere. I scanned the mailing list and documentation but did not find what I need. I have Observium and Munin functioning separately on the sane node. I would like to import some of the graphs that Munin has created into Observium. I am not exactly sure how to even start that project. - Is there a simple way to do it? - Are there step-by-step instructions that a semi-novice can follow? Thanks in advance! [SD]

LDAP authentication changes
by Tom Laermans 04 Jun '13

04 Jun '13

Hi everyone, I've made some modifications to the LDAP auth module; if you SVN up to r4114 or higher, please check if your LDAP auth is still working if you are using it. As far as I know (and on my test system), all defaults are sensible and should work just as before without changing anything, however some new features appeared, specifically to support active directory. An example config for AD is on the wiki. Nested groups don't work yet, I will hopefully get around to that soon. Thanks, Tom

ASR9k users?
by Robert Williams 03 Jun '13

03 Jun '13

Hi, Just curious if anyone is currently using Observium to monitor any Cisco ASR9k based devices? I can see that it has correctly identified all the various hardware modules, line cards and temperature sensors etc. but isn’t graphing things like temperatures or light levels like it does for our Cat6K workforce. Since this is the first ASR device I’ve tried polling on Observium I’m not sure if it’s just not fully supported or if we have some SNMP restrictions on the Cisco which are preventing it from getting what it needs. Any feedback or other experiences are welcome! Cheers all, Robert Williams Custodian Data Centre Email: Robert(a)CustodianDC.com http://www.CustodianDC.com

Memcached updates
by Britt Treece 03 Jun '13

03 Jun '13

Starting to use Memcached and found some of the current Memcached bits in Observium not working optimally. I wrote a new unix-agent script using python rather than PHP. The previous script relied on PECL memcached but didn't do anything for installations using PECL memcache. After a bunch of trial and error I determined that it was easiest to write the script in Python which requires the python-memcached library and is readily available on different OS types and versions. I also modified the applications/memcached.inc.php and polling/unix-agent.inc.php to accommodate the new script. They will also accurately separate different instances of memcached running on the same server as reported by the script. I'm still trying to work out a couple things. The main thing is when you enable Memcached as an application for a device Observium automatically creates an entry in the database but the instance is NULL. When the unix-agent reports on the Memcached instance(s) running on the server new entries get created in the database for each instance and the app with the NULL app_instance never gets used. I've been manually removing it from the database. If possible I would like to work it out so that it doesn't get created automatically. If that's not possible I was going to look into updating that entry with the first real instance reported by the agent. Also wanting to get the Apps tab for the Device to better identify each instance and maybe work on some additional metrics reporting for Memcached specific stats. Patch attached, let me know if it is acceptable or not... Britt Treece

Observium is designed for use in a service provider environment with a main design assumption being that one does not necessarily know what one wants to monitor until the data is needed.

Help with ldap group access/permissions
by Tracy Phillips 30 May '13

30 May '13

Hi, I have configured Observium to authenticate against ldap and it works great. This is my configuration for authentication: $config['auth_mechanism'] = "ldap"; $config['auth_ldap_version'] = 3; $config['auth_ldap_server'] = "ldap.example.net"; $config['auth_ldap_port'] = 389; $config['auth_ldap_starttls'] = FALSE; $config['auth_ldap_prefix'] = "uid="; $config['auth_ldap_suffix'] = ",ou=People,dc=example,dc=net"; $config['auth_ldap_group'] = "cn=observium,ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=net"; Everything works as expected until I get to this point. When I go to add a new device or view the global configuration, I get the message: ERROR You have insufficient permissions to view this page. I have confirmed that I am in the observium-admin group. This is what I have for group permissions: $config['auth_ldap_groupbase'] = "ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=net"; $config['auth_ldap_groups']['observium-admin']['level'] = 10; There is nothing relevant in the observium.log. Is there something that I am missing or does anyone have thought that might help me resolve this issue? Thanks in advance for any hints you can throw my way! Tracy

I want to say THANK YOU
by Zach Underwood 30 May '13

30 May '13

I work for a small ISP. For the past few weeks things have been running slow on the network. After working on and off of the problem for some time will no fix, I had to take a break from the problem. So I setup a VM running centos, I installed your software (the rhel howto has some mistakes). I then added the core switches and routers, 9 devices later I had the core mapped. After the software was running for 10 mins I started to see a problem. The core router that links up two ISP with BGP was having interface errors. Comes to find out the interfaces was running at half duplex. After fixing the duplex error the network came back to life. I would like to say thank for the software and I am a kickstarter supporter. -- Zach Underwood (RHCE,RHCSA,RHCT) My website <http://zachunderwood.me> My photes <http://zunder1990.openphoto.me>

SNMP Printer polling
by Matthew Coene 30 May '13

30 May '13

Good morning everyone... Ok.. I have my Canon printers working polling when using jetdirect as the OS type in separate include files in /observium/includes/discovery/os/, I was hoping to make them their own icon, and subset in the definitions.inc.php but seeing as how jetdirect is already declared as its own (I assume string?) (forgive me I am not a programmer)... Can I still make a separate definitions entry code block and split the 'jetdirect' code to a separate entity so I can leave the HP printers stuff alone and do the Canon separately?? Cheers, M.

Hardware scaling
by Adam Armstrong 29 May '13

29 May '13

Hi All, I put together a very basic set of scaling guidelines : http://www.observium.org/wiki/Hardware_Scaling My sample size is quite limited, do any of you have useful numbers from large (>10k ports) installations? How much RAM does your /ports/ page take? (mouse over the perf on the bottom bar). How much average CPU load does your system have, and what CPU is it? (assuming the host is Observium-only) What storage back-end do you use, and how well is it scaling? Thanks, adam.

Little more help with SNMP/MIB for Canon.
by Matthew Coene 29 May '13

29 May '13

Good Afternoon All, Tom, Looks like you were right... Tried snmpwalking our Canon devices with the HP-LASERJET-COMMON MIB... Looking at the rest of the code, specifically the "jetdirect" bits that you mentioned... <?php if (!$os) { if (strstr($sysDescr, "JETDIRECT")) { $os = "jetdirect"; } else if (strstr($sysDescr, "HP ETHERNET MULTI-ENVIRONMENT")) { $os = "jetdirect"; } else if (strstr($sysObjectId, ".1.3.6.1.4.1.11.1")) { $os = "jetdirect"; } } I can say that the OID string that seems to be the most common to the ID is... (actually there are a few) iso.3.6.1.2.1.43.9.2.1.8.1.1 = STRING: "Canon" I am hoping there might be some way to just adapt the existing framework, to use the the new OID / MIB to report the Canon's specifically instead of generic? Am I even remotely on some sort of right track or way off on some far removed dead end tangent?? Cheers, Matt.

Manually fix bogus RRD data?

I have a router which was running glorious cisco code with a marvelous bug where the number of active ipsec tunnels kept increasing until I put a better IOS on it. So now I have a graph where the ipsec tunnels shoots to tens of thousands of ipsec tunnels, making the long term views pointless. Is there some easy way I can loop through a date range or similar and set the number of ipsec tunnels to some other number (like 10 instead of 22,000)? -- Alex Presse "How much net work could a network work if a network could net work?"

New user - Few questions
by Simon Mott 26 May '13

26 May '13

Hi all im pretty new to observium but i am loving how easy it is to use so far! I have a couple of minor issues though 1) i have added two servers that are configured almost identically and observium has only picked up the lm-sensors info for one of them - is there a way i can force it to get this info from the second server? 2) On the note of lm-sensors - Observium is parsing the output of lm-sensors and treating the threshold values as actual sensors - can i make it just outright not graph these whilst keeping the actual sensor data? 3) I have a windows server added to observium and i am getting a load of ports that i dont care about - same question as above - can i make observium ignore these ports and not even list them/try to graph them? 4) i have unix agent installed on a server exposing hddtemp data but sometimes when observium polls it doesnt detect all hard disks or sometimes none at all (whilst at the same time i confirm hddtemp is working as expected and showing all disks) Any ideas whats causing this? Thanks

A couple questions..
by Jason Lixfeld 24 May '13

24 May '13

Hi, Is it possible to change the default ports display for a device from Basic to Details? Also, can I filter the display only to show interfaces that match a certain criteria. ie: Admin = Up, Oper = Up, Type = Ethernet or L2 VLAN (802.1q) or IEEE 803.2ad Link Agg? I find that the default display shows a lot of stuff for interfaces that I'm not particularly interested in, so I'd like to be able to clean that up. I know I can toggle polling on a per-device basis, but I'm hoping there's a method that is a little more dynamic than that. Thanks in advance.

We don't generate graphs from any of the default check_mk output. We merely used it as a template to build the Observium agent.

IPV6 BGP Session Alerts
by Mahomed Hussein 22 May '13

22 May '13

Hi I’ve noticed that Observium has a very useful “BGP Alerts” section (among all its other useful sections :-) ) that shows all the BGP sessions/neighbours that are down etc. But it doesn’t seem to show IPv6 sessions. Is this because this isn’t currently supported or is there something that needs to be changed in the config? Thanks in advance. Kind regards, Mahomed Hussein Custodian Data Centre Email: Mahomed(a)CustodianDC.com http://www.CustodianDC.com

how to disable reading mac-address-table via snmp?

hi List, how can i disable the reading of the entire mac-address-table from switches? problem is, we have about 4000 ports, 129 switches, and snmpbulkwalk needs about 22sec for one run, because the mac-address-table from uplinkports are to big. norbert

FDB Table
by Dario Calamai 21 May '13

21 May '13

Hi All! I have a new job in a new provider and Observium is up, again! :) my FDB Table is empty, still working in progress? I had a quick look to the code and I think that somethings in includes/polling/q-bridge-mib-fdb.inc.php have to be change for example dot1qTpFdbEntry is not working with my cisco 2960/3750, but dot1dTpFdbEntry does! [line 27] another example is that the function to search per-vlan mac-address is missing, now shows only the mac-addr in vlan1 [add "-c <community>@700" to snmpwalk command for vlan 700] Thanks, -- dario calamai http://www.linkedin.com/in/dariocalamai

Hello, I don't know if this is the best place to ask this but... Is it possible to integrate Observium with SQL Server? In my company we have a MS SQL server team managing the DB's but no MYSQL experts. If the integration with SQL Server is supported, I prefer that the correct team manages that DB. If not, is that integration in the roadmap? Best regards Paulo Rio

Re: [Observium] Custom port service type?

Hi Paul, That’s excellent thanks! I've just extended that array to include all our (already labelled, thankfully) ports for various service types and it's worked brilliantly. One question, I don't suppose there is an 'easy' way to add a category which is made of up two other port types? Like with the default "Peering & Transit" group? Cheers :) Robert Williams Custodian Data Centre Email: Robert(a)CustodianDC.com http://www.CustodianDC.com -----Original Message----- From: observium [mailto:observium-bounces@observium.org] On Behalf Of Paul Orrock Sent: 15 May 2013 06:00 To: Observium Network Observation System Subject: Re: [Observium] Custom port service type? Hi, I've just supplied a patch to the nav bar (commit 4004) that will pick up anything you put followed by a colon and display it as a group under the ports menu. So I have a bunch of ports which have descriptions which start ESXData: Inter: Mgmt: etc and now those headings appear as groups under the port menu automatically when you add them to the config file with $config['int_groups'] = array("EsxData","EsxMgmt","Inter"); If your existing ports don't start with something like that then you'll need to create a custom port description parser which will pull out the type from however you have it laid out in your port descriptions. I took the opportunity to re-label all my 330 ports into a better structure and just use the standard parser but the custom parser is easy enough if you can write regular expressions. regards, Paul On 15/05/2013 02:08, Jason Lixfeld wrote: > > On 2013-05-14, at 5:59 PM, Tom Laermans <tom.laermans(a)powersource.cx> wrote: > >> On 14/05/2013 23:45, Jason Lixfeld wrote: >>> My port naming convention for core ports doesn't follow the "Core:" spec required by Observium.
