Ignore device for alerting and notifications for a timeperiod
by Jesper Grahn 28 Jun '16

28 Jun '16

Hi, is it possible to activate "Ignore device for alerting and notifications." until a specified time/date? I have tried to activate "Ignore device for alerting and notifications." under "Device settings" and set at time in "Alerts" but that didn't work. The purpose is to disable notifications when we do planned work. /Jesper Grahn

Hi, Since last svn update, I'm receiving the messages in telegram like this: "ALERT : Flap in bgp Device: my-router-name {{#ENTITY_NAME}} Entity: ASxxxxx 177.x.x.x {{/ENTITY_NAME}} {{#SYSLOG_MESSAGE}} Message: {{/SYSLOG_MESSAGE}} Device Uptime: 11 days, 15h 53m 21s More information: http://observium.mydomain.net/device/device=23/tab=alert/alert_entry=9774/" Something is broken? In time: when I received the same message by e-mail, when is a bgp alert, can you include the AS name? Thanks. -- Eduardo Schoedler

monitor nfs mounts
by Simon Smith 28 Jun '16

28 Jun '16

Hi All, I’m just trying to work out how i monitor the mounted nfs drives i have on a server? ive disabled $config['ignore_mount_network’] but still nothing? can this actually be done? i only want to see the folders that are mounted as a storage drive in observium and see the percentage thats being used i would just monitor our NAS drive directly but sadly the NAS storage drive is very old and doesn’t support SNMP but we are looking at a new one with SNMP support :) regards Simon - Hestor Ltd

Billing fails on specific interfaces
by Jesper Frank Nemholt 27 Jun '16

27 Jun '16

Hi! I was testing billing and with certain interfaces it reports no data, despite the graphs clearly showing data. My thought is that it may relate to the interface name as it works well with other products and interface names. The "special" think is that the interface name has a colon in it. Have anyone seen this before ? See output : Bill : Test bill Polling nac-vv01-01:e1b on nac-vv01.xyz.com time: 1466805074|0 period:1466805074 No data. Polling nac-vv01-01:a0a on nac-vv01.xyz.com time: 1466805074|0 period:1466805074 No data. Polling nac-vv01-02:a0a on nac-vv01.xyz.com time: 1466805074|0 period:1466805074 No data. Bill processing... time: 1466805074|1466805005 period:69

Re: [Observium] Delay the alert trigger in case of loss only one ping
by prost pierrick 27 Jun '16

27 Jun '16

Hello, I have make some tries but I’m still spammed with fake alerting. Delay value is in minute ? How can I debug poller to check if I really lost ping ? (I’m on a 10 gbit backbone network.. I’m really surprise). Regards pierrick De : prost pierrick Envoyé : jeudi 23 juin 2016 12:36 À : Observium Network Observation System Objet : RE: [Observium] Delay the alert trigger in case of loss only one ping Delay ..yes i see it !

You can set the delay field, which will cause the alert to wait for x number of down periods before it triggers. Adam.

Actually I have only two Alerts Checks : Device Down device_status equals 0 * * Device UP device_status equals 1 * * It’s possible to add a delay before triggering ? Like waiting 5 ping lost before triggering ? Regards.

Linux Firewall/Conntrack stats
by Attila Nagy 27 Jun '16

27 Jun '16

Hi guys, I wanted to see some firewall statistics (more exactly connection tracking statistics) of some of our Linux servers, but I couldn't find anything alike in Observium. Am I too lame, or is this a non-existing feature? If it is non-existing then could you tell me whether the future plans do involve this? Thanks, Tylla

Debuging slow SNMP-queries
by Markus Klock 27 Jun '16

27 Jun '16

Hey guys, I noticed I have some devices in my network that are responding very slow on just some specific SNMP-queries so I hacked together a small script that will parse the debug-output of Observium poller or discovery and then show you a list of the snmp-commands that took the longest to complete. I wrote a blogpost on how to use it here: http://blog.best-practice.se/2016/06/observium-performance-tuning.html and you can download the script from github: https://github.com/ZerxXxes/observium-logparser [image: Infogad bild 1] It was very helpful in finding what devices needed a software update ;) I hope it can be useful for others too /Markus
