Yes, I obviously put in bad cables to be able to test Observium :D Sent from my mobile, please excuse brevity and spelling errors. ----- Reply message ----- From: "Sander Steffann" <sander(a)steffann.nl> To: "Observium Network Observation System" <observium(a)observium.org> Subject: [Observium] interesting question on reddit Date: Fri, Jul 19, 2013 16:07 Hi, > I don't know what Lists >> Errors" even is, but clicking "Errored (6)" under Ports gives me a list of 6 ports with errors. I was looking for that link but couldn't find it, until I realised that it only shows when there actually are ports with errors. Guess I have nothing to worry about :-) Cheers, Sander _______________________________________________ observium mailing list observium(a)observium.org http://postman.memetic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/observium

SNMPv3-Only Discovery/Polling
by Daniel Preussker 19 Jul '13

19 Jul '13

Hi, I recently set up another host. This time using SNMPv3. addhost.php worked fine and both Auth and Priv passed. discovery.php can't discover the host. poller.php can't poll the host. via snmpget I get responces to sysUpTime.0 but not to .1, .0, ... The snmpd.conf should grand the user full Readonly rights as I didn't specify any SubID to the user. Is this known? Is there a way around? Is there any example of a working snmpv3-only setup?

Collectd minigraphs on front page
by Frank Ortmann 18 Jul '13

18 Jul '13

Hello We make fairly heavy use of the collectd capabilities of Observium. It really is a great feature for us. I have been investigating adding mini graphs to the front page. The guide helped me add graphs from SNMP-gathered data, but I was unable to add graphs from our collectd list. The current implementation requires an ID and a TYPE. Unfortunately, the collectd chart dos not contain these keys (see below). <IP>/graphs/type=device_collectd/device=15/c_plugin=<FOLDER_NAME>/c_type=counter/c_type_instance=<COUNTER_NAME>/to=1374136448/from=1374050048/ Has anyone been able to do this? Is it possible? Kind regards, Frank

Re: [Observium] Monitor Munin Plugins

Observium will draw graphs from munin plugins, yes. You need to use the UNIX agent. I'm not sure there is documentation for the munin stuff at the moment, but its not too complex Adam.

how to suppress repeated email again and again for the same down event every polling cycle? (other thank "fix the down issue" ... which probably won't occur before the next polling cycle) any chance for a quick band-aid? e.g. some sort of acknowledgement mechanism, or an incremental counter check that emails just "new" circumstances (maybe a roll-up summary reminder of non-new every X polling cycles) doesn't have to be perfect end-state ... just something to drown out the noise until we get there. thanks for considering.
