Alerts on Aggregate values or sums?
by Darrell Budic 02 Jan '18

02 Jan '18

Bit of an RFE here, would like to be able to alert on the aggregate value for a group, or do sums in the alert checker test field, unless I’m just missing how to do this? My particular use check is adding up the total power for a 3 phase PDU (and a group for the power panel), and alerting if the total watts or amps are greater than 80% of the circuit capacity. Total Power Output on my APC 3 phase PDUs doesn’t work for me here because it’s dependent on the power factor of the connected devices, and that isn’t readily available in observium. Even if it was, I’d still need math (division this time) on two values. Sums/aggregates seem like the easiest route for this task. Thanks, -Darrell

multi device graph for sensors?
by Darrell Budic 02 Jan '18

02 Jan '18

Is there a way to get a summary (and sum) of a particular sensor? I’d like to have a one graph for all my PDUs with the apower attribute summed up for a total, see what the absolute # is. -Darrell

Hello, I've created alarm checker: os equals nxos hostname match *NET* ifType equals ethernetCsmacd ifAlias match *vPC Keep-alive link* And after a while i noticed that some entities where disapeared. The device was reachable and etc. I did a "rebuild' and they're reappeared again. What could be the cause ? NXOS ? :)

by Edvinas K 23 Dec '17

23 Dec '17

[image: Inline image 1] Hello, Is there any explanation - why this alert came up ? >From device sensors info now i see this information: [image: Inline image 2] The NX-OS stack (again) sent wrong condition information and alert generated by the "greater than 0" rule ? Is there are the way to minimaze these false positives ? Thank you.

NetFlow Recommendation
by Oludayo Oyediran 20 Dec '17

20 Dec '17

Afternoon All, We recently purchased Observium after a recommendation from our Network Engineer, what Netflow software would you recommend to use alongside Observium? If you know any Open Source ones, that'd be awesome. I came across Nfsen but it's a tad too old. Also I have Observium talking to 6 out of 8 of my routers and SNMP is turned on on all of them. If you require any info please let me know. There are 7 Cisco x 1 Juniper routers and the affected routers are Cisco.
