Cisco-vrf discovery - huge performance improvement
by Guillaume Leclanche 31 Mar '12

31 Mar '12

Hi, As I wanted to make Cisco VRF discovery SNMPv3-compatible, I realized that it was actually very slow. So I change the philosophy of it (bulkwalk all SNMP info first then analyze in the code), and here's the result for a device with 500 VRFs: Old version : Discovered in 65.83 seconds New version : Discovered in 3.234 seconds At the same time I made it SNMPv3-compatible, and I added the support for CISCO-L3VPN-STD-MIB that is the more recent MIB and the only one supported on the latest releases of IOS/IOS-XR. I tested it with Cisco Hw and it's fine, but for the other vendors implementing the MIB, somebody else will have to test it :) Guillaume

Adam, Thanks, you right. Forgot to purge these deleted interfaces, my bad.

Legend shows not-existent interfaces
by Nikolay Shopik 29 Mar '12

29 Mar '12

When you open Total Traffic graph, you may see in Legend interfaces which doesn't really exist on this device. Additionally sometimes you may see duplicate interfaces in Legend, which do exist. I wonder what may cause of this and to fix it?

Get Interface UP and DOWN mails for ignored ports since about r2922
by Matthias Cramer 27 Mar '12

27 Mar '12

Hi Adam and All since about r2922 I get DOWN and UP alert mail for Ports ignored by $config['bad_if_regexp'][] = "/^tnl[0-9]/"; Looks like this is not checked when sending mail, only on the web front end. Would be very very nice if that can be fixed. Regards Matthias P.S.

Not all filesystems added to Observium
by Ciro Iriarte 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

Hi, I have this working without issues for RHEL5 and SLES11, but on a openSUSE host the filesystems built on top of LVM are not shown... The walk gives them all: HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageDescr.10 = STRING: Swap space HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageDescr.31 = STRING: / HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageDescr.32 = STRING: /usr/local/pgsql HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageDescr.34 = STRING: /dev/shm HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageDescr.35 = STRING: /run HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageDescr.39 = STRING: /sys/fs/cgroup HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageDescr.50 = STRING: /var/lock HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageDescr.51 = STRING: /var/run HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageDescr.56 = STRING: /media HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageDescr.57 = STRING: /boot But observium only shows info for /boot, /dev/shm, /media /run,/sys/fs/cgroup, /var/lock and /var/run. On SLES I don't see "in memory/not real" filesystems like /proc or /sys. Regards, -- Ciro Iriarte http://cyruspy.wordpress.com --

This is what i was actually replying to, HERP DERP. Also, please use the observium list, observium-dev is mostly just svn. adam.

can you show us a screenshot from "accurate graphs" for that same bill? thanks, adam. On 2012-03-16 11:49, Timbo a la Bazzi wrote: > > Hi There, > > How can I make a bug report?

bug report: Billing Traffic
by Timbo a la Bazzi 16 Mar '12

16 Mar '12

Hi There, How can I make a bug report? The forum is closed for registration, the bugtracker also, so I hope this is the correct way and I can help in the future maybe, because the software is awesome! I have the following situation: The polling is done correctly and it shows the same results as cacti for my switch. Buw when I add billing and make a bill for a port with Quota the first time I add for example 20GB it shows like 20B. If i then edit it it shows correctly as 20GB (so not 2.0E-8), so there is a work around. When I add a bill for multiple ports the sum is totally wrong. For example. I made a bill of 5 ports and 5 bills of each port, so I can check. If a manually sum the 5 bills/ports I get around 80GB. But when I look at the SUMMED bill it says 1.47PB I have added the billing feature this way: http://www.observium.org/wiki/Billing What am I doing wrong and if it is a bug how can I correct it? So there are 2 problems: initial quota is set wrong, but can be corrected. -> Bug with a work around quota calculated to high values -> bug or misconfiguration, but I can't find anything about it: So you can see the sum of the 5 ports are 9.36Gbps and it are 5x 100MBit ports ;-) The switch that I am monitoring is a HP2524 Thanks in advance!
