Tom and everyone, Thanks for the information. I got the powers that be to open up the observium port and I’ve been getting some great data ever since. I appreciate the assistance.

Once you've got the agent working, you may need to enable it under the Poller Modules for the specific host.

Hey all, I have a WatchDog 15-P environmental monitor I'd like to see the temperature in observium. Do you all have any plans to support this device ? I did not see it listed on the supported devices page. Thanks, R. Prihoda

GeoLocation

Quick question... We are a small WISP and I am trying to add all the WAPs to the map... if I do something like this: $config['location_map']['VIE Office'] = "35.476475, -80.992856"; It looks perfect on the map, however under the location menu of course it shows these coordinates as well... Is there anyway to get the SysLocation to show in the location field, but the map display correctly? Or is this a pipe dream. ~JV

Getting billing data out of Observium via SQL
by Scott Brawner 14 Mar '14

14 Mar '14

I'm looking to get the billing data out of observium for monthly executive reviews. For some reason the CIO wants it in Excel (boo.) What I'm interested in mostly are the Avg in, Avg out, 95th in and 95th out for each billed circuit on a monthly basis. If anyone has done this, please let me know how or if you have queries, I'd love to see them. Thanks! Best regards, Scott Brawner

Fortinet Support
by Ninja Data 14 Mar '14

14 Mar '14

I wanted to start by saying Observium is so awesome! I wish I would of found it sooner! So I'm trying to add my Fortinet firewalls to Observium. I see that I can add specific MIBs for Fortigates, but I didn't see the latest D series on the list. I'm not exactly sure how to add the Fortigates. I'm unable to create a DNS entry for the firewall, and I know it's dependent on DNS. I'm very new and not exactly sure how to go about this addon. Can anybody shed some light and point me in the right direction. Also, I read that if a custom MIB wasn't written for the device that one can donate. How do I go about doing that? I would love to see the latest Fortinets(and older of course) in Observium. Cheers,

device_ucd_load Graphs
by Daniel Knights 14 Mar '14

14 Mar '14

Hi, Hoping someone can help. Since upgrading to the latest version using the SVN the device_ucd_load graphs have stopped generating and are no longer displayed within Observium. We use an external website and link to these graphs so our clients can view the server load and it'd be handy to get them working again. Were they disabled/removed in the latest version? Is there any way to get them back? Thanks

FreeBSD Instalation
by Michel Braga Guimaraes 14 Mar '14

14 Mar '14

How, everyone. I'd like to know if someone there has Observium installed in a FreeBSD server. I have one Observium installed in a FreeBSD server, and other installed in a Ubuntu Server. The Ubuntu one works perfectly, but in my FreeBSD, there is no that Health tab, that shows me Processors information, Mempool information, Power information. That velocimeter icon,([image: Inline image 1]), doesn't shows up for me, I don't know if it can be some mib missing, but I don~t think so, cause I already installed net-snmp, I configured snmp.conf with snmpconf -i and etc... I don't know what else to do. Do someone there has a recipe, to make Observium works properly on FreeBSD?
