observium Syslog not recieving syslog msgs
by Glen Whittle 03 Sep '13

03 Sep '13

Hi, I have been unable to get the syslog function to work and I can't find any info online that is helping I am just getting the follwoing msg on the webpage No syslog entries found! This device does not have any syslog entries. Check that the syslog daemon and Observium configuration options are set correctly, that this device is configured to send syslog to Observium and that there are no firewalls blocking the messages. See documentation<http://www.observium.org/wiki/Category:Documentation> and configuration options<http://www.observium.org/wiki/Configuration_Options#Syslog_Settings> for more information. it may be something simple that I have missed (have followed the documentation on the website ) see far below for my syslog-ng.conf, syslog.php and config.php So far I have tested and my server is receiving syslog msg form my cisco devices I tested this by changing the destination d_observium to output to a file rather than "program("/opt/observium/syslog.php" template ("$HOST||$FACILITY||$PRIORITY||$LEVEL||$TAG||$YEAR-$MONTH-$DAY $HOUR:$MIN:$SEC||$MSG||$PROGRAM\n") template-escape(yes)); which worked beautifully any help would be appreciated. ---------------------config.php------------------- <?php ## Have a look in includes/defaults.inc.php for examples of settings you can set here.

Front Page
by Ryan Milton 30 Aug '13

30 Aug '13

I am looking to spice up my frontpage and am currently adding the minigraphs. Is there a way in the config to name each graph as opposed to a custom name for the field? How about with the legends, to select what is shown in the legend, so that they aren't 3x's as large as the graph itself? Regards, Ryan Milton Network Manager o: 201-447-1505 x124 c: 862-249-5230

rrd query...
by Peter Childs 30 Aug '13

Am I reading this correctly... defaults.inc.php:$config['rrd_rra'] = " RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:2016 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:2976 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:1440 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:288:1440 "; So for a step of '300' (5 mins) we have 1 PDP @ 300seconds = 5 mins (x 2016) = 7 days of 5 minute intervals 6 PDPs @ 300seconds = 30mins (x 2976) = 62 days? 2 months? (of 30min averages) 24 PDPs @ 300seconds = 2 hour (x 1440) = 120 days (of 2 hour averages) 288 PDPs @ 300 seconds = 24 hours (x 1440) = 4 years? (of 1 day averages..) Cheers, Peter
