Hi All I am testing Observium, but I am having a problem with different models of Dell PowerConnect switches. The counters like Unicast / Non Unicast packets does not seem to update correctly, but work fine on Netgear and Cisco switches. When debugging I can see that snmp poll picks up the data ifInMulticastPkts.1 = 820013 ifInMulticastPkts.2 = 689375 ifInMulticastPkts.3 = 0 ifInMulticastPkts.4 = 0 ifInMulticastPkts.5 = 0 Then in the SQL UPDATE command the counters are either 0 or empty - any ideas? SQL UPDATE `ports` set `poll_time` ='1485773865',`poll_period` ='149',`ifInOctets` ='14157050456',`ifInOctets_rate` ='2900.8255033557',`ifOutOctets` ='74622251693',`ifOutOctets_rate` ='12147.88590604',`ifInErrors` ='1',`ifInErrors_rate` ='0',`ifInErrors_delta` ='0',`ifOutErrors` ='0',`ifOutErrors_rate` ='0',`ifOutErrors_delta` ='0',`ifInUcastPkts` ='',`ifInUcastPkts_rate` ='0',`ifOutUcastPkts` ='',`ifOutUcastPkts_rate` ='0',`ifInNUcastPkts` ='0',`ifInNUcastPkts_rate` ='0',`ifOutNUcastPkts` ='0',`ifOutNUcastPkts_rate` ='0',`ifInBroadcastPkts` ='',`ifInBroadcastPkts_rate` ='0',`ifOutBroadcastPkts` ='',`ifOutBroadcastPkts_rate` ='0',`ifInMulticastPkts` ='',`ifInMulticastPkts_rate` ='0',`ifOutMulticastPkts` ='',`ifOutMulticastPkts_rate` ='0',`ifInDiscards` ='0',`ifInDiscards_rate` ='0',`ifOutDiscards` ='0',`ifOutDiscards_rate` ='0',`ifInOctets_perc` ='0',`ifOutOctets_perc` ='0',`ifOctets_rate` ='15048.711409396',`ifUcastPkts_rate` ='0',`ifErrors_rate` ='0' WHERE `port_id`! = '175' In the database table field port_mcbc = 1 Kind regards Hans

Trying to set up alert on average processor usage but getting alerts for each individual processor.
by Rowlands Mark 30 Jan '17

Running Observium Professional 17.1.8329 I am trying to set up an alert on the average cpu usage for an intel multiprocessor machine ( yeah windows and snmp.. I know ) This is the exported template :- <?xml version="1.0"?> <templates> <template type="alert" description="Autogenerated observium template" version="0.91" created="Mon, 30 Jan 2017 12:48:26 +0100" observium="17.1.8329" id="62216b29dcf38c27da35f258b679d0f4"> <entity_type>processor</entity_type> <name>cpu</name> <message>Processor high</message> <severity>crit</severity> <suppress_recovery>0</suppress_recovery> <delay>0</delay> <conditions_and>1</conditions_and> <conditions>processor_usage gt 75</conditions> <conditions_complex>processor_usage gt 75</conditions_complex> <associations> <device>hostname equals pdb01-sql</device> <entity>Average </entity> </associations> </template> </templates> This however seems to match all of the processors ( see attached images ) I am clearly doing something wrong / being unlucky with my thought processes. Anyone care to enlighten me?

beginner question

Hi! Sorry for what might be an obvious question for some of you. Have just gotten observium installed and it is monitoring our fw and sw. When I look at the firewall outside port I get a graph of how much traffic that max/min has been sent out/in. But there is also a shaded value, that I cannot figure out what it is. Thanks for your help. [image: Inline images 1]
