Finally, I managed to have the APP tab, however 2 problems still persist: 1. The NTP Graphs and PDNS the show nothing, just error graph not drawing 2. Under device setting - application I disabled the ntp and pdns application and then they disappeared and I have the message No applications found on this device. however they still are in the folder root@banana:/usr/lib/observium_agent/local# ls -l total 8 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3211 Oct 1 12:00 ntpd -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3211 Oct 1 12:00 powerdns-recursor What's wrong with my observium??? :( Thank You Federico 2015-10-01 8:33 GMT+01:00 Federico Olivieri <lvrfrc87(a)gmail.com>: > Hi Adam, > > I tried to re-install Unix Agent from scratch and I still have a problem. > I double cheked the permission and all files belong to root:root with chmod > +x.

Fwd: NTP Graphs

Hi All, I'm trying to plot some graphs with Observium for my NTP server. I would do something similar to MUNIN. I tried to google it but I didn't find any useful information for my (low) level of experience. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thank You Federico

More Observium integrations with rancid
by Robbie Wright 30 Sep '15

30 Sep '15

So we've got rancid integration working (thanks Adam and others) in Observium for all of our Mikrotik devices and it is working great. We've got a few Ubiquiti EdgeRouters (based on Vyatta) that we'd like to get hooked up with rancid as well, but the Observium integration confuses me a bit. Do we edit the cloginrc file with the info for how to log into EdgeRouters? I would have assumed we would normally use a different group to tell rancid how to pull config's but everything is just in the Observium group. How does everyone setup rancid to pull down more than one equipment manufacturer's gear? Has anyone pulled config's through rancid into Observium from EdgeRouters?

Ok, I see that Pushover is now a contact method. Great! Erm, how do I make it work? I've tried creating a new application and putting the API token in the "Destination" field, but it doesn't appear to work that way. What goes in the Destination field? Tim

Small feature request
by Attila Nagy 28 Sep '15

28 Sep '15

Hi All! One colleague of mine recently met this little (let's call it) glitch, and as he is rather new to the software, he had a hard time solving it (he had to ask me to get introduced into the concept of disabled devices, and the place to search for :)). So when one wants to add a new device, and it already exists, Observium writes a simple error message, like: "Already got device x.y.z.net." What I would like to suggest is two things: 1. make the device name in this error message clickable as anywhere else. This way the novice user can click on the host and see that it's really there 2. if the device is disabled, maybe indicate it in this message, like "Already got device x.y.z.net only disabled" This way the novice user would see why he didn't found the device in the first place. Now that I think of it again, the second one is rather overkill, but the first one would be an easy but logical advancement. Regards, Tylla
