Observium - net-snmp process unresponsive
by Laurent Dumont 29 Dec '14

29 Dec '14

Hi gents, I have a CentOS 6.6 install with net-snmp running. I'm using SNMPv3 Auth and Encryption with Observium polling devices every five minutes. On one of my Centos server, the net-snmp process will die after 24-36 hours of running. It seems to be hitting my system maximum file open limit which is set to 1024. > > [root@mail net-snmp-5.7]# ulimit -n > > 1024 > > [root@mail ~]# lsof -p 26907 | wc -l > > 1071 > > [root@mail net-snmp-5.7]# lsof -p 26907 > > snmpd 26907 root 166r REG 0,3 0 4026532160 > > /proc/26907/net/sctp/snmp > > snmpd 26907 root 167r REG 0,3 0 4026532160 > > /proc/26907/net/sctp/snmp > > snmpd 26907 root 168r REG 0,3 0 4026532160 > > /proc/26907/net/sctp/snmp > > snmpd 26907 root 169r REG 0,3 0 4026532160 > > /proc/26907/net/sctp/snmp > > snmpd 26907 root 170r REG 0,3 0 4026532160 > > /proc/26907/net/sctp/snmp > > snmpd 26907 root 171r REG 0,3 0 4026532160 > > /proc/26907/net/sctp/snmp > > snmpd 26907 root 172r REG 0,3 0 4026532160 > > /proc/26907/net/sctp/snmp > > snmpd 26907 root 173r REG 0,3 0 4026532160 > > /proc/26907/net/sctp/snmp > > snmpd 26907 root 174r REG 0,3 0 4026532160 > > /proc/26907/net/sctp/snmp > > snmpd 26907 root 175r REG 0,3 0 4026532160 > > /proc/26907/net/sctp/snmp > > snmpd 26907 root 176r REG 0,3 0 4026532160 > > /proc/26907/net/sctp/snmp > > snmpd 26907 root 177r REG 0,3 0 4026532160 > > /proc/26907/net/sctp/snmp > > snmpd 26907 root 178r REG 0,3 0 4026532160 > > /proc/26907/net/sctp/snmp > > snmpd 26907 root 179r REG 0,3 0 4026532160 > > /proc/26907/net/sctp/snmp > #tail /var/log/snmpd.log > > cannot open /proc/net/dev ... > > /proc/partitions: Too many open files > > /proc/stat: Too many open files > > /proc/partitions: Too many open files > > /proc/stat: Too many open files > > could not create socket > > /proc/partitions: Too many open files > > /proc/stat: Too many open files > > cannot open /proc/net/dev ... > > /proc/partitions: Too many open files > > /proc/stat: Too many open files > > /proc/partitions: Too many open files > > /proc/stat: Too many open files That number will keep increasing till it trips the 1024 limit. It seems that CentOS is frozen to net-snmp 5.5 and I'm don't really want to use anything that I can't easily manage with "yum". The weird thing is that I have another server with the same config/CentOS version/Net-Snmp version and I have no issues with the snmp process on that server. Anything else I could try to troubleshoot the issue? Thanks!

Need to create sensors and better support for Ubiquiti radio devices
by John Brown 26 Dec '14

26 Dec '14

I'm looking for help to improve the support of Ubiquiti microwave radio support in Observium. Mainly focused on the AirFiber 24 and AirFiber 5 products, along with the Rocket series. Would need the ability to alarm on RF Signal level changes (out side of acceptable range, etc). Same with receive Ether CRC on the radio's ether interface. Anyone interested in helping. There would some $$ avail.

Enable / Disable RANCID on a per device basis
by Nate Mellendorf 26 Dec '14

26 Dec '14

Hello everyone, I've implemented the RANCID integration feature, which has been working quite well over the past week. I'm very excited to have config diffs on the same page as the health of each device. It's little features like this that are allowing us to leverage Observium over other monitoring platforms. That said, I was curious about a related Observium feature request. Would it be possible to configure a RANCID on/off switch on the device settings page? Please allow me to clarify this further. When I run generate-rancid.php, It's going to generate a router.db for all of the devices listed within observium. While this is amazing and extremely useful, not all devices within Observium need to be added to this list. My idea is to add a switch that determines whether the device will be added to the router.db. That way, when our CRON job runs each night to update router.db, it only does so for the devices we know RANCID can log into. Again, this is just an idea I wanted to share. If you feel there is something I could do to get around this, please let me know. As of right now, I generate the new router.db myself and manually remove each device I know shouldn't be listed.

Many false positives
by John Brown 24 Dec '14

24 Dec '14

Hi I'm trying to troubleshoot the many false positives we are receiving from OB. The system will report a host as down, yet our legacy Nagios and out-of-band Pingdom do not show the host as down. It doesn't appear that OB records in the log what specifically is making OB think the host is down. I've increased the SNMP time out value to 3 seconds (which seems very long) and that has helped with some hosts, mostly Mikrotiks. But I doubt that our Juniper MX480's (which are lightly loaded) should need such long time frame to respond. How can I get OB to report what is the actual trigger for its "Host Down" alerts ?? Are there tweaks for performance monitoring / testing ?? Thank you in advance..

set device for customer
by Simon Smith 24 Dec '14

24 Dec '14

Hi All, I have a feeling is more of a daft / random question, but ill ask it anyways Is it possible to set a list of devices for a customer in the customer view under the Ports menu? I can’t change the description of every single interface like described in here http://www.observium.org/wiki/Interface_Description_Parsing I would rather have a customer view of all there devices I understand i could create a user for the customer and assign those devices to that user, but thats not a view for myself as Admin the other issue i have is the Devices are assigned all over the place and not in one location either ? Regards Simon
