Re: [Observium] How to enable bulkwalk?
by Tom Laermans 23 Nov '13

If I remember correctly, we use bulkwalk by default unless it's blacklisted by the OS type, if we saw it didn't fully support it...

Ideas on Packet Loss?
by Ryan Milton 22 Nov '13

22 Nov '13

Attached is a picture of one device in the network that keeps throwing a fit. I regularly get the notice that it is down (Netscreen 204) and that there is packet loss. Now I think that the two issues may be different. When I "get clock," I show UP 1741 hours. Is this an issue with Observium? If so, I don't know how to change that. I have my Observium server in the same rack as the device in question. Otherwise, it's something with my hardware-obviously. I know that I may feel the wrath of Adam, but I'm trying to narrow down what ISN'T the issue.

Support of Lexmark printers
by Jama Solomo 21 Nov '13

21 Nov '13

Status: Currently no subscription. Hello! we have a bunch of Lexmark printers spread around the entire company. We are looking for a software to monitor the remaining toner capacity. I have tested Observium. A real nice software. However we got only the typical information like CPU, storage or RAM usage. No information about toner. Question: Is the support of Lexmark printers on the road map? Thank you for feedback. Regards Jama

Hi All, I am new to Observium and love the product so far. I am looking at the Disk I/O page and trying to figure out the legend. Could somebody please explain what the k, M and u's stand for? Is it kb, mb or thousands and millions? What about the u? Thanks in advance!

Re: [Observium] Stable vs Trunk

I am !! In a production environment we may avoid bugs and more risky problems (like an insane SNMP discoverer, or something like that). So I'll be interested in a stable branch, regularly updated :-) I think the most important things are : 1) Stability 2) "Silence" - in terms of not talking too much on the network 3) Performance 4) Without less information or functionality than the latest updates Regards, Adrien BERTRAND Administrateur Sécurité du Système d'Information Tel : 01.42.79.47.81 Interne : 5.47.81 [Description : Q_BPCE_Assurances.jpg] ************************************************************************** From: Tom Laermans <tom.laermans(a)powersource.cx<mailto:tom.laermans@powersource.cx>> To: observium(a)observium.org<mailto:observium@observium.org> Subject: Re: [Observium] Stable vs Trunk Message-ID: <528A414B.5040501(a)powersource.cx<mailto:528A414B.5040501@powersource.cx>> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Hi, > As it turns out, waiting for a bit of software to feel un-buggy enough > to call stable is a little bit like chasing a magic dragon in a > pharmaceutically-enhanced dream, a largely unattainable goal.
