Re: [Observium] only interface counters wrapped

Interface counters update much quicker. Probably 500 times quicker than even packets in net stats. But it is perhaps related to old missed data problem. :( Adam Nikolay Shopik <shopik(a)inblock.ru> wrote: >Hey, > >So I just wondering is this normal when some of your counters wrapped >(huge peak) while others are perfectly normal? > >I have device running for 1 years, 103 days, and only interface graph >are wrapped while netstat are just perfectly fine. > >snmpwalk seems report that HC counters supported, device running 12.3 IOS. >_______________________________________________ >observium mailing list >observium(a)observium.org >http://postman.memetic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/observium

only interface counters wrapped
by Nikolay Shopik 01 Apr '13

01 Apr '13

Hey, So I just wondering is this normal when some of your counters wrapped (huge peak) while others are perfectly normal? I have device running for 1 years, 103 days, and only interface graph are wrapped while netstat are just perfectly fine. snmpwalk seems report that HC counters supported, device running 12.3 IOS.

False "device rebooted" message
by Stefano Lobrano 31 Mar '13

31 Mar '13

Hello List, I'm testing observium to monitor network devices in our datacenter, I've added a range of different devices and it seems all good, but today it has given me a false notice about a couple of nexus 5000 that are reported as "rebooted" while the switches are correctly reporting uptime of more than 600 days... All the other hosts are reported without errors, apparently. I've looked in the mailing list archive and I found similar issues, with server, but I understand that was something resolved. Where does observium takes the info about reboot? Observium is installed in a VM: Observium 0.13.3.3824 Apache 2.2.22 (Ubuntu) PHP 5.3.10-1ubuntu3.6 MySQL 5.5.29-0ubuntu0.12.04.2 RRDtool 1.4.7 Thanks, Stefano

IPMI issues
by List User 31 Mar '13

31 Mar '13

Hey guys, Its me, again. This time I'm wondering what's up with the IPMI feature? I gave my IPMI a hostname in /etc/hosts and set the proper username and password, and it's not showing any data like CPU temperatures.I have a feeling its not even polling anything from the IPMI. I have the Module called ipmi enabled on global and the device itself. The FAQ didn't seem to provide any info related to IPMI usage. Thanks.

Observium png files
by Winston Shaw 28 Mar '13

28 Mar '13

Hello, I can see that png files are being created in the /tmp directory. However the rrdtool graph command is trying to access non-existent png files. The result is no graphs being displayed. Is this related to the strgen function ? Is my system somehow converting the random names of the png files to another name.png ? non-programmer.

Nope. The file is deleted after it is accessed, so you never knew it was there. There is a bug which doesn't delete them sometimes, which is why you see them. You probably need to reinstall and follow the install guide properly on a supported platform. Adam.

I'm following the instructions listed in this website, http://www.observium.org/wiki/Billing#Configure_a_Bill. Is there anything that I"m actually missing? Thank you.

Tom will know, but he'll be asleep now. He does the ipmi code. List User <list(a)redspeedservers.com> wrote: >Hey guys, > >Its me, again.

Hehe. They wanted it as a 6 month stop-gap before their final solution was in place. I suppose they got the final solution in first! They were going to pay 2k.
