Alerts and e-mails
by Heironimus, Brian 17 Sep '14

17 Sep '14

Hello I have installed the software about 4 months ago. I have not been able to get the alerts to work at all. I do not have any of the alert pages in the drop down menu. In fact the only alert page that exists is http://192.168.1.31/add_alert_check. http://192.168.1.31/alerts, http://192.168.1.31/alert_checks and http://192.168.1.31/alert_Log just take me back to the homepage. I also do not see any of the alert HTML files under /opt/observium/html/pages except for Add_alert_check. I also have not been able to set it up to e-mail. I just update to 0.14.4.5229 this morning. I was on the May or June release. Thanks for the help, Brian Heironimus

Hi guys, I just subscribed, I'm reviewing the Demo and wanted to ask: - Does Observium has user/client account login interface, as I was not able to find one? - Does the sub-section "Peering" in "Ports" visualize data collected on a Layer 2 peering switch for example?

Backwards switches
by Ryan McCully 17 Sep '14

17 Sep '14

Hi Everyone My switches are showing inbound traffic as outbound and outbound as inbound on Observium. I suspect it may be something to do with the SNMP in the switches that can't be changed therefore is it possible to swap the two on observium? My router which is also monitored by observium shows inbound and outbound correctly. Thanks Ryan

Re: [Observium] Problem with the Mail Alerting
by Matt Ladewig 16 Sep '14

New feature would be needed- Individual alert checker email address. That way one alert checker could be setup to match on .us.domain devices and send to the US NOC email address. A second checker then would be created to send .jp.domain devices to the JP NOC email address. Feature requests 876 and 988 would take care of it.

I wouldn't even know where to start doing something like that... :D adam. _______________________________________________ observium mailing list observium(a)observium.org http://postman.memetic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/observium

Alerts for down state
by Bruce Reeves 16 Sep '14

16 Sep '14

I have been trying a few combinations of the wiki examples for alerts and most work, but a simple down state keeps eluding me in defining an alert. Does anyone have an example they'd could share of it working? Sent while mobile, please excuse typos.

I've setup a couple of alerts however I don't see a way to have the alerts email sent out say every 5 minutes or w/e if the alert is triggered. Is there a way to cahnge this? I have a server which triggered an alert and last time alerted is more than 30 minutes ago.

Interface description parser issues
by Chard, Alex (REA-SYD) 14 Sep '14

14 Sep '14

Hi All, Wondering if anyone can help with this... I have Observium setup on about 30 switches and routers. The only feature I haven't been able to get working is the tagging interfaces based on description as Transit, peering etc. As an example, this is one of our Internet transit interfaces: interface GigabitEthernet0/1 description Transit: {14379} (Pipe Networks AS24130) [100Mbit] Observium tells me: Total Graph for ports of type : Transit None found. Any ideas why this might not work? Many thanks, Alex Chard This e-mail is for the use of the intended recipient(s) only.
