Re: [Observium] Website Alerting

I*m interested in the same. From what the boys said at IRC this is not possible with Observium. Sadly. =( But if someone finds a way, please let me know. =) Also interested in FTP-tests for test of actual upload/download to see if Ftp is up. =) Cheers -- Henrik Cednert cto | td | compositor Filmlance International Direct + 46 (0)704 71 89 54 From: observium <observium-bounces(a)observium.org<mailto:observium-bounces@observium.org>> on behalf of Matt Zillmann <mzillmann(a)testoil.com<mailto:mzillmann@testoil.com>> Reply-To: Observium Network Observation System <observium(a)observium.org<mailto:observium@observium.org>> Date: Tuesday 19 January 2016 at 14:53 To: Observium Network Observation System <observium(a)observium.org<mailto:observium@observium.org>> Subject: [Observium] Website Alerting Hello everyone, I am investigating whether monitoring/alerting a website’s status is possible with Observium. Has anyone done this before? It would be a basic alert (UP/DOWN) Thank you.

Enable autodiscovery via VMware
by Tibor Marchyn 19 Jan '16

19 Jan '16

Hi all, Not sure if it was asked before, but in current version of Observium 0.16.1.7504 in global settings is option called "Enable autodiscovery via Vmware". How does it works? As I very like observium, documentation looks as totally out of date and not usable. Thanks Tibor

Hello everyone, I am trying to figure out the best way to have email alerts sent from Observium to our exchange server ( IT email accounts on exchange server). What method is best? Does anyone have a recommendation and documentation on how to configure? I am new to setting up email on a Linux host. Thank you, Matt

FW: Custom OID alerting
by Franks Andy (IT Technical Architecture Manager) 18 Jan '16

18 Jan '16

Hi all, Like the custom oid addition, it's nice to be able to add support for some each oids if necessary. One thing I've never been able to find out how to do was get mount point support in windows for space percentages used - I can now do this, but wondered whether I could do a custom oid alert? We tend to not have the time to proactively check graphs, so an alert would be ideal. Thanks Andy

reporting and billing
by Anthony Parker 18 Jan '16

18 Jan '16

Hi I am running a couple of installs of the community edition and I like it very much. I would like to expand into suggesting Observium to our customers as a reporting and billing tool and I am wondering Is it possible to get a demonstration copy of the subscription edition of observium to show clients the reporting they can expect? Is it possible to convert an installation to/from the subscription edition or does one simply create a new installation? Thanks Anthony Anthony Parker M9 (IT) Ltd.

Re: [Observium] NaN on Graphs

No, I have 30GB free on my / (root). ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Sun, 17 Jan 2016 13:09:50 -0500 From: "Edward Weir" <edward.weir(a)gmail.com> To: <observium(a)observium.org> Subject: [Observium] NaN on Graphs Message-ID: <046e01d15152$42167070$c6435150$(a)gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Hi, I've been trying to get my graphs to work but I'm still getting NaN on 'some' of my them. I have a Cisco c891fw router and interfaces g2 and g3 graph fine but the other interfaces g0, g3, g4, g5 do not graph and I get a NaN but keep in mind that I do see their traffic transfer rates. I do not get a 'draw error', just a blank graph. I'm running the following: Ubuntu 15.10 Observium CD 0.15.6.6430 NET-SNMP version: 5.7.3 RRDtool 1.4.3 I have updated to the latest RRDtool version 1.5.5 but then I get the draw errors. Is there anything you can provide to help. Thanks, ejw
