by Александр Горбачев 05 Jun '14

05 Jun '14

Hi! I'm using comunity based version and I'm really like it. But I want to try professional version with all new features. There is the question - I'm working for 2 companies, so can I purchase professional version and use it as 2 different instances in each company I've working in? Best regards! -- С уважением, ведущий инженер ООО "Виндекс Сервис" Горбачев Александр

DNS Aliases
by Cardinal-Richards, Emma 04 Jun '14

04 Jun '14

Hi, I understand that Observium needs the hostnames to be valid, so we tweaked our hosts file with a regex to add an alias to match the device hostnames (as our initial names had some extra info in the names not on the hosts). But this appears to allow me to add devices manually but autodiscovery doesn't seem to be working. Does Observium need it to be the 'main' resolvable hostname rather than an alias? Regards, Emma

Billing View display issue
by Spencer Gaw 03 Jun '14

03 Jun '14

Hey all, We made a topographical change to a portion of our network last night - to be specific, we separated a large fiber ring into two smaller rings. After this change was made, the Billing View in Traffic Accounting is not displaying new data. Here's the kicker, the data is there; 24 Hour View and Monthly View display as expected. It seems to only affect the Billing View - screenshots attached. This isn't so much of a problem, just an oddity that I noticed. Anyone have a theory here? Regards, SG

Cisco WLC monitoring
by Сережка Хомяков 03 Jun '14

03 Jun '14

Hi all! I know, this is a pretty discussed topic, but from this discussions plans and current state of Cisco's WLC monitoring are not obvious. When I've tried to add it to Observium, it wa correctly identified as Wi-Fi device type, but only device traffic and system temperature are shown on the main page, no CPU, memory are available. WLC model is 2106. Can anyone plaese clarify this? --- Best, Sergey Homyakov

Re: [Observium] 4k
by Rob VanHooren 03 Jun '14

imo, 1920 will be common for quite a while yet. any chance you can make the scaling formulaic, based on a config parameter? that way you only have to do it once, forever. (bonus: mbp folks are happy, you can be lazy when 8k shows up, etc…) R.

PostgreSQL Application monitoring
by David Peall 03 Jun '14

03 Jun '14

Hi I want to monitor Postgres servers and was wondering the best way to go about this. On the master server there are several clusters each with a number of databases. On the replication servers the same exists but I’d like to monitor the streaming replication delay. I’m just wondering what the best layout would be to bring the data into Observium?

MIB files to compile?
by Ray, Bjoern Karsten 02 Jun '14

02 Jun '14

Hi there, this may sound a bit stupid but I need to know this for sure: MIB files in Observium don't have to be compiled but to be available under /opt/obersium/mibs/ or(!)/opt/obersium/mibs/[vendor]? Background is a strange feeling that some MIBs are not used at all - so the second question is: how to validate that Observium uses the correct ones so I can verify either that I've done something incomplete or the affected MIBs are not valid or incomplete at all. Thanks in advance! Björn
