Alerts Triggering even when disabled
by Johnston, Tom 10 Jun '15

10 Jun '15

* Cisco 2960-X (24 Ports PoE) running c2960x-universalk9-mz.150-2a.EX5.bin * Observium 0.15.6.6446 * Alert Check * Check Conditions * ifAdminStatus eq up * ifOperStatus ne up * Associations * Device Match * os eq ios * Entity Match * ifType equals ethernetCsmacd I have Both Polling and Alerting Disabled on the interfaces which are not up on this switch, (they are not admin down just no link). So the issue is even though I have them set not to poll nor to alert, they still are doing so. What can I look at to see why that would be? I’ve tried deleting and re-adding the device but the same behavior applies. Thanks in advance for any advice. [cid:2E4D1B6E-4174-4130-BED4-825EC44D8342] [cid:3DFA6513-B87A-4CD8-8EAD-CD62E44447CB]

Deleting sensors and graphs from a device
by Jason Lixfeld 09 Jun '15

09 Jun '15

Hi all, I have added an extremely pared down copy of a device to Observium and am using it strictly to be able to monitor BGP sessions inside a VRF context. I have disabled all sensors, modules, graphs, etc from the device configuration, but it seems that any sensors and graphs that were created before these settings were disabled are still present on the device’s page. How can I turf all the graphs and sensors and all that stuff from these devices? Thanks!

Port alerts that dont exist
by Chard, Alex (RET-SYD) 09 Jun '15

09 Jun '15

Hi All, I'm still having this issue where there are 2 ports that show as down on the dashboard, but no alerts are present when you click the "2 down" link. [cid:image001.png@01D08DDD.1C78EC00] Is there a mysql query I could run to diagnose which ports are causing this? There does appear to be some disconnect between the port down count query on the dashboard and the query for the Port Alerts page: /ports/state=down/ Thanks, Alex Chard Senior Network Engineer [cid:image001.jpg@01CF2EF8.D871AF90] 475 Victoria Ave, Chatswood, NSW 2067 *: +61 (02) 9422 2226 [mobile]: +61 (04) 03 894 614 *: alex.chard(a)reed-elsevier.com.au<mailto:alex.chard@reed-elsevier.com.au> www.reedelsevier.com<http://www.reedelsevier.com/> This e-mail is for the use of the intended recipient(s) only.

I’ve been running poller.php in -dd mode to try and troubleshoot somethings and came across many, many multiples of these errors in the output: Strict Standards: Only variables should be passed by reference in /opt/observium/includes/common.inc.php on line 624 PHP Strict Standards: Only variables should be passed by reference in /opt/observium/includes/common.inc.php on line 625 My google-fu hasn’t helped me figure out why these are showing up or how to turn them off.

IOS XR snmp-server context for monitoring BGP sessions inside a VRF
by Jason Lixfeld 09 Jun '15

09 Jun '15

Hi, I understand that the current BGP MIB doesn’t support VRF contexts for pulling BGP session info for sessions that exist inside a VRF. I have IOS XR boxes that house my vrf BGP sessions, and apparently there is an snmp-context command that has proven to be able to work around the MIB limitations. My question is whether or not anyone within the Observium community has tried to do this. From what I gather, it requires a separate SNMP community on the IOS XR box to perform the context mapping, but that would seem to imply that one needs to duplicates the node in question in Observium with the new community. I haven’t actually tried any of this yet...

Environmental monitoring on an APC Smart-UPS
by Vincent Aniello 08 Jun '15

08 Jun '15

I have an APC Smart-UPS 1500 with a network management card that includes environmental monitoring. When Observium discovers the device the battery temperature is displayed, but not the temperature from the probe connected to the management card. Does Observium have the ability to show the temperature from the probe on the management card? Thanks. --Vincent
