Holes in graphs
by Zoellers, Billy 08 Aug '16

08 Aug '16

Hello all, We're seeing holes on our graphs (example attached). This appears to be affecting all graphs in our installation on all devices. I know our connection is good (affecting LAN and WAN devices), but looking for any other ideas for correcting this? We have also tried increasing the number of poller processes. Only around 1000 ports on this install, 8 GB of RAM and 4 vCPU. Thanks, Billy [cid:image001.png@01D1EEFD.85030800] [cid:DeanDortonbox.png] Billy Zoellers Infrastructure Engineer 106 W.

Graphs no longer draw after restore
by Vlad Kratsberg 08 Aug '16

08 Aug '16

Hi, I recently restored observium to a different machine. I restored the following: config.php mysql db rrd Everything looks good except for the fact that graphs stopped drawing and display data in a real time. When i click on port to see real time data, i get "can't get data about port xxx". See attached images. Any ideas ? Thanks

No memory pools detected for OSX hosts
by Oliver Baker 08 Aug '16

08 Aug '16

Hi there, I'm running Observium 0.16.7.8003 (stable) for monitoring OSX hosts which is working great, except no memory pools are being detected for any hosts apart from "Swap space". Memory for OSX hosts did work previously, but after I mailed in re: "Incorrect free physical memory for Unix hosts" and Adam A. made a change, the memory pools have disappeared. What's the best course of action? Many thanks Olly

Apps tab used to show a single graph per item.
by Ricardo Meleschi 07 Aug '16

07 Aug '16

Hello Observium overlords, In the past the Apps tab in observium would only show a single graph per item/array, but with the later versions it shows four graphs per item of varying timelines. Is it possible to configure Observium to only show a single timeline graph per array? When a large number of servers are running the application, it’s difficult to compare graphs when they are displayed in the current manner. Thanks, Ricardo

Device not yet discovered
by Laurence Mayer 05 Aug '16

05 Aug '16

Hi, Almost once a day I receive the following on one of the switches. Device not yet discovered This device has not yet been successfully discovered. System information and statistics will not be populated and graphs will not draw. This device should be automatically discovered within 10 minutes. It does not go away until I have manually run the /opt/observium/discovery.php Any ideas why? Thanks Laurence

Eaton 5130 'Inverter Off' Flipped
by Robert Williams 05 Aug '16

05 Aug '16

Hi, We've got several Eaton 5130 RT 3000 (with extended battery packs) being deployed to some remote locations. One of my guys has been setting them up overnight but has noticed that Observium reports one of the metrics incorrectly for all of the new units. Ironically the inverter status is, well, inverted. The platform is detected as: Hardware 5130 RT 3000 Operating system MGE UPS 6006AC (Firmware: JI) A debug of the status module, shows: SQL[UPDATE `status-state` set `status_value` ='2',`status_name` ='No',`status_event` ='ok',`status_last_change` ='1470278633',`status_polled` ='1470295701' WHERE `status_id` = '1289'] SQL RUNTIME[0.00013590s] Checking (snmp) Inverter Off CMD[/usr/bin/snmpget -v1 -c *** -Pu -OUqnv -m SNMPv2-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs/rfc:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp 'udp':'ups-41.thn.oob.local':'161' .1.3.6.1.4.1.705.1.7.9.0] CMD EXITCODE[0] CMD RUNTIME[0.0414s] STDOUT[ 1 ] SNMP STATUS[TRUE] RRD CMD[update /opt/observium/rrd/ups-41.thn.oob.local/status-mge-status-state-upsmgOutputInverterOff.1.0.rrd N:1 --daemon unix:/var/run/rrdcached.sock] RRD RUNTIME[0.0011s] RRD STDOUT[OK u:0.00 s:0.00 r:0.65] RRD_STATUS[TRUE] - /opt/observium/includes/polling/status.inc.php:45 /opt/observium/includes/alerts.inc.php:61 ================================================ array( [status_value] => int(1) [status_name] => string(3) "Yes" [status_name_uptime] => int(17068) [status_event] => string(5) "alert" )) Reading the standards for that OID, that does seem to be the wrong way around. After a simulated power failure, you can see it goes to '2' when the power is failed and the inverter is (actually) off. As a side note, I noticed that Observium is polling the OIDs for a Merlin Gerin unit (.1.3.6.1.4.1.705.x) for when the unit is actually Eaton.

Search custom keywords / description
by Daniel Horth 05 Aug '16

05 Aug '16

Howdy all. Wondering if there is a way to allow users to search for a custom string / keyword as configured in Observium. I am adding a variety of linux boxes to our monitoring setup and would like to be able to have users search on an application name or service name and have all servers matching that keyword show as options. Thanks
