Re: [Observium] New install, Alert Checker not triggered
by J Green 14 Oct '17

Hello there: Just built a new system w/ CE version 17.9 on Centos 7.2 . When I create/run the following Alert Check, it shows as 'OK' for my devices: processor_usage greater 90 * * When I go to a device and view graphs, it shows a device w/ 100% CPU utilization No errors in logs/db.log. Is my syntax incorrect? Thank you.

Bogus alerts since last CE update
by Musall, Maik 06 Oct '17

06 Oct '17

Hi, on Sept 28th I updated one installation to the new CE release (17.9.0). Since then, Observium keeps sending me interface down/up alerts for every single port on every single switch and router, once every day between 11:20 am and 11:35 am (a bunch every 5 minutes). The alerts look like this: They serve to notify me if anyone connects or disconnects something in my absence. That worked well for a year or so, until I did this update. Now I get 114 emails every day at the same time. What could be the cause, and how can I solve that? Maik

Hello, We have upgraded Observium from CE to Pro version following upgrade document, we are now running 17.9.8859 (stable) version and, since then, global "Poller Wrapper history" stopped working. Now it shows "- nan" in all fields. This is what it shows now: [cid:image002.png@01D33E9A.3B2E1D80] Any hint?

Multiple mailing options
by Franks Andy (IT Technical Architecture Manager) 06 Oct '17

06 Oct '17

Hi all, We have a scenario where we'd like, for certain alerts, to not only send via the default mail settings but also to forward to an external sms portal. This particular portal is fairly simple and works via sending an email to a certain domain with a phone number prefix. We'd need to use different mail settings for this purpose though and I was wondering if someone could think of the best way to do this. I can't really find many examples for the external script or web hook transport methods, and ideally we'd be able to do most of the configuration and filtering directly within observium rather than doing the messaging logic elsewhere. Thanks Andy

Alarm on VLAN?
by Ryan, Spencer 05 Oct '17

05 Oct '17

Hey Guys, Is there any way to write an alert check to alarm if a VLAN is seen on a port (either access or trunk?). We have a few "untrusted" networks that we want to know if they get stuck on a trunk somewhere they shouldn't be. Thanks!
