4k displays
by Adam Armstrong 27 May '14

27 May '14

Hi All, Are any of you running 4k displays yet? We've been thinking about how to handle larger displays and were considering jumping straight from the existing 1280px wide to 3840px rather than building a 'widescreen' mode on 1920px. I think it would be most noticeable in the amount and resolution of the graphs we could display. We could effectively fit twice the amount of data into each graph. It would probably require quite a lot of work, so it's important we get the resolution correct! (no, i don't care about your macbook pro's silly resolution) adam.

cosmetic question
by Ray, Bjoern Karsten 26 May '14

26 May '14

Hi there, I have two routers in different location connected over IPSEC-VPN. Both devices are actively monitored which works fine. Now I am wondering how to make this interconnect visible on the map. Is there an option I have overseen? Alternatively if IPSEC isn't "supported" in this way what protocols would result in a visible connection? Thanks in advance! Björn

Feature request: Firewall flow statistics
by Erwin Heringa 26 May '14

26 May '14

Hi all, We would like to graph the amount of sessions through our Juniper SRX firewalls with Observium. (snmp oid: .1.3.6.1.4.1.2636.3.39.1.12.1.1.1.6.0) It would be a really nice feature and in the past (when we used cacti) it has helped us detecting a problem with software on one of our servers. I'd really like to see that in Oberservium and maybe others can benefit as well. Met vriendelijke groet, kind regards, Erwin Heringa SIDN | Meander 501 | 6825 MD | Postbus 5022 | 6802 EA | ARNHEM T +31 (0)26 352 55 59 | F +31 (0)26 352 55 05 erwin.heringa(a)sidn.nl | www.sidn.nl

missing port description in traffic bills edit mode
by Andre Mamitzsch 26 May '14

26 May '14

Hi, I just wanted to change a traffic bill and delete a port, if editing the traffic bill, the port list on the right hand side shows only the delete button but no port description. I found that in revision 5521 and verified it with Firefox, Chrome and Safari. So it does not seem to be browser specific. Could you please look into it ? Regards, Andre

FW: SNMP unreachable
by Micah Young 23 May '14

23 May '14

Hi Currently I am able to run an snmpwalk on my devices from bash, however all devices appear down in my Observium instance due to snmp. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this may be the case? -Mike Y. ARDEN A Global Company Celebrating over 50 years of making your life more comfortable!

WMI Module Observium
by Jeremy Alberts 23 May '14

23 May '14

Hello, I have the following case. I am useing Observium to monitor a few Windows Server 200 R2 VM's. Some machines can't get there disks polled because of a BDEdrive partition (because of this partition the poll times go up to 60 sec/per machine as wel). As workarround i have disabled the storage poller module (the polling time goes down to 3 sec), and enabled the WMI poller module. The wmi poller module works nice. Polling of the Disk partition works as wel! There is only one problem, the graphs/logs for diskspace dont get written to the rdd files when using the wmi disk poller module. Is this a know problem and if so, is there a fix or setting that I could use? Kind regards, Jeremy

{Disarmed} Health Processor Usage sorting according to the Usage ?
by Supun Rathnayake 23 May '14

23 May '14

Hi , The current health monitoring top menu report ( http://x.x.x.x/health/metric=processor/ ) displays the items in the alphabetical order of the device name. But it would great if we can get this sorted by actual usage, so that it gives like "Top CPU Usages like report" This is just a suggestion, what do you all think , the same thing could be applied to other metrics as well for the time being I just edited the /opt/observium/html/pages/health/processor.inc.php file and set $processors = array_sort_by($processors, 'processor_usage', SORT_DESC, SORT_NUMBER, 'processor_descr', SORT_ASC, SORT_STRING); to get this effect. but my worry is, this will be overwritten when we do the svn upgrades :-) With Best Regards, Supun Rathnayake Lanka communication Services (Pvt) Ltd. 65C, Dharmapala Mawatha, Colombo 07.
