Hello All, Our Corp Linux images keep us from using the Canonical way to upgrade, which means I need to reimage my server with Ubuntu 14. My question is what is the process in backing up and restoring all the Observium pieces? Thanks, ----------------------- Leo Dano

Guys, First of all a big thank you for finally implementing Syslog alerts!!! ☺ I have a bit of a problem, I’m unable to delete Syslog Rule i.e. there is no option to do so, I guess this is still in progress / experimental?

Apps graphs in Observium
by Mads Boye 06 Jun '16

06 Jun '16

Hello. I am using Observium to monitor two postfix servers. However the APPS summary site, does not show the postfix graph. From what i can gather it seems that there is a mismatch in what application name the apps overview page uses and the apps subpage for the individual server. i.e. the postfix server app subpage calls http://observium.my.server.bla/graphs/to=1465199547/id=10/type=applicat ion_postfix_sent/from=1465113147/ and the apps overview calls: http://observium.monitor.srv.aau.dk/graphs/to=1465199603/from=146511320 3/legend=no/type=application_postfix_mailgraph_sent/id=10/ if i remove the "mailgraph" part form the last link the correct graph shows. I've tried to add the postfix application to the "includes/definitions/apps.inc.php with no luck. If the application name is correct it cannot find the graph postfix_sent etc. <?php // Definitions related to the applications system // Application graph definitions $config['app']['moodle']['top'] = array('users', 'mobile'); $config['app']['varnish']['top'] = array('backend', 'cache', 'lru'); $config['app']['postfix_mailgraph']['top'] = array('sent', 'spam', 'reject'); // End application definitions I might be overlooking something or doing it wrong, but it seems that the mismatch should be corrected? I have added both postfix scripts form scripts/agent-local And a second question. I've made a custom Observium app for monitoring an application, which is working fine. My problem is that i wish to extend the agent to monitor some extra paramters. RRDtool now says that there is no entry for the new DS in the rrd file. Is there a way to update the RRD file, so i do not have to delete it and loose the historical data from the other parts that i monitor? Let me know if you need additional informations on both problems. Best Regards, Mads.

Rancid integration - Cannot see old versions anymore
by Andy Lemin 03 Jun '16

03 Jun '16

Hi, Hopefully this will be a simple question and I've just misconfigured something, anyway.. We have rancid working great before, and when you go to the Config tab, it showed you the latest configuration, as well as the configuration revision history. However after upgrading the server to Jessie (probably unrelated but seemed to break a couple weeks around this time), we now only see the latest config only and not the history anymore? We have these settings; $config['rancid_configs'][] = "/var/lib/rancid/observium/configs/"; $config['rancid_ignorecomments'] = 0; And we have done this; http://www.observium.org/docs/rancid/ It all works, just only shows the most recent? We need to roll some config back and couldn't.. Cheers, Andy. -- *Download our latest free guide here <https://www.brandwatch.com/competitive-intelligence-guide/>*

Recent Events timestamps
by Jacob Bisby 03 Jun '16

03 Jun '16

Hi all I've just migrated our Observium installation over to a PHP7 based install (much quicker than the PHP5 based install so far). Everything seems fine except for the Recent Events list on the front page - the "time" counter since the event occurred has started getting stuck at 0 seconds for some reason, but the tooltip that pops up when you mouse over the 0s timestamps shows the correct time that the event occurred at. Is PHP7 a no-no for Observium at this point? - Jacob Bisby

Re: [Observium] Group bug
by Laszlo Nemeth 02 Jun '16

02 Jun '16

Yes, you are right ☺ So ok, the Ports menu shows the groups that contain ports group and we have two groups menu now (Globe, Ports). :) Sorry. But in this case I think the Ports -> Groups has to be the default value is the “Port”. Like in the Globe->Groups there is the “All” is the default value. But nothing in the Ports->Groups. It shows nothing until I press the “Port” on this page.

Added 3 group with interface sum in the Ports menu. Later add 2 sensors group there. The Ports menu shows 3 member, but there was 5. (3 interface, 2 sensors). If we click to the Sensors we see our sensors groups. Now we upgraded to 7900. We see the Group in the Ports menu AND the first menu too! The first menu shows 5, the Ports shows 3 groups. Click on the first menu’s groups: shows all 5 groups. Great ☺ Click on the Ports menu’s group: shows nothing. But there if I click to the “ALL”, it shows 5 groups (3 interfaces, 2 sensors).
