Hi, I want to change an e-mail used in my account at jira.observium.org, but User Profile page in Jira doesn't allow to do that (in fact, account Summary page is just empty). Can you advice me the right button for e-mail change? -- Best, Sergey

n00b question: Implementing a new application but I get no graphs (rrd files)
by Jonas Karlsson 11 Oct '18

11 Oct '18

Hi, I am trying to develop a new application (monroe) by following the instructions here: https://docs.observium.org/developing/add_app/ and are probably doing something stupid but I cannot see where the problem is. In my, updated and working, installation of observium I cannot find the file "includes/definitions/rrdtypes.inc.php" referenced above (I have searched the entire folder tree but with no luck). All the default applications work (ie vmwaretools) so as a "alternative approach" I tried to copy the code of the vmwaretools application and also search for where the vmwaretools have its definition but no luck. My application show up in the WEB UI and the agent works but I get no graphs. When I run ./poller.php manually I get : <snip> ##### Module Start: applications ##### o Applications ioping ...monroe .Cannot create RRD for type monroe - not found in definitions! nginx . nginx statistics vmwaretools . o Module time 0.0247s <snip> So it is missing the definitions but where do I add those ??? I have found a reference for rrdtypes.inc.php in includes/definitions.inc.php but in /includes/definitions/ I only have three files: $ls includes/definitions/ definitions.dat version.inc.php wui.inc.php -- Jonas Karlsson Senior Research Engineer Karlstad University SE-651 88 Karlstad, Sweden 📞 +46 54 700 15 64 📞 +46 70 672 06 20 💬 karlsson.karl.jonas 🗝 0x88765911B284F3A6

Use ifName instead of IfDescr
by Simon Mousey Smith 10 Oct '18

10 Oct '18

Hi All Im trying to find out if its possible to use IfName instead of ifDescr? TP-Link TL-SG3109 switch For some DUMB reason, all the ifDescr are being discovered as ‘Ethernet Interface’ ifDescr.1 = Ethernet Interface ifDescr.2 = Ethernet Interface ifDescr.3 = Ethernet Interface ifDescr.4 = Ethernet Interface ifDescr.5 = Ethernet Interface ifDescr.6 = Ethernet Interface ifDescr.7 = Ethernet Interface ifDescr.8 = Ethernet Interface ifDescr.9 = Ethernet Interface So when you look down the list on Observium, I have 9 Ethernet Interface (not helpful) I can put descriptions on each port and they get discovered by observium and show underneath the Ethernet Interface (but still not very helpful) I have noticed however tho in the debug output of the poller, ifName are being found as the port numbers as listed on the web interface of the switch! ifName.1 = g1 ifName.2 = g2 ifName.3 = g3 ifName.4 = g4 ifName.5 = g5 ifName.6 = g6 ifName.7 = g7 ifName.8 = g8 ifName.9 = g9 So is it possible to switch them round? Attached is the debug output from the switch if its helpful to anyone :) Regards Simon

Limited write permissions
by Tom Funken 10 Oct '18

10 Oct '18

Hey Guys, I currently looking for a way to give an employee just "some" access to the system. The main goal is, that he can manage traffic bills but only can see an selected devices group. However, it seems like I'm to stupid for that :D When I create an normal user, I can assign an group to the user, but he just can look and don't edit bills. The only way I can see to give him rights, to create and edits bills is to give him a full admin level.... :( -- Best Regards, Tom Funken Managing Director ------------------------- Srizbi Limited 83 Ducie Street Manchester M1 2JQ United Kingdom Tel.: +44 56-0305 5120 E-Mail.: t.funken(a)srizbi.com
