How to completely remove a device
by Lasse Leegaard 26 May '13

26 May '13

Hey, I have decomissioned a FreeBSD server and then wanted to remove it from observium. I would assume that clikcing on the "delete device" button would do the trick, but alas I still see the server on my device list. I have also tried editing the device and deleting it from there to no effect - it says it isn't there any more. Do I need to remove it and all data concerning it manually from the database and is there an easy way to do that? -Lasse-

New user - Few questions

Hi all im pretty new to observium but i am loving how easy it is to use so far! I have a couple of minor issues though 1) i have added two servers that are configured almost identically and observium has only picked up the lm-sensors info for one of them - is there a way i can force it to get this info from the second server? 2) On the note of lm-sensors - Observium is parsing the output of lm-sensors and treating the threshold values as actual sensors - can i make it just outright not graph these whilst keeping the actual sensor data? 3) I have a windows server added to observium and i am getting a load of ports that i dont care about - same question as above - can i make observium ignore these ports and not even list them/try to graph them? 4) i have unix agent installed on a server exposing hddtemp data but sometimes when observium polls it doesnt detect all hard disks or sometimes none at all (whilst at the same time i confirm hddtemp is working as expected and showing all disks) Any ideas whats causing this? Thanks

It used to just be appended to ports page URLs. Is the default basic? It should be detailed! Adam.

Does that option still work? I thought it died when we changed the URL format? Adam. Chris Stone <axisml(a)gmail.com> wrote: >_______________________________________________ >observium mailing list >observium(a)observium.org >http://postman.memetic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/observium

A couple questions..

Hi, Is it possible to change the default ports display for a device from Basic to Details? Also, can I filter the display only to show interfaces that match a certain criteria. ie: Admin = Up, Oper = Up, Type = Ethernet or L2 VLAN (802.1q) or IEEE 803.2ad Link Agg? I find that the default display shows a lot of stuff for interfaces that I'm not particularly interested in, so I'd like to be able to clean that up. I know I can toggle polling on a per-device basis, but I'm hoping there's a method that is a little more dynamic than that. Thanks in advance.

Billing Graph Legend

Adam, I may be stupid but… In the legend for the interfaces there is Current Average and Maximum. At the bottom under the interfaces there are two Total rows with four columns. What actually are the four columns? Regards, Adam

I literally log in once or twice per year. Including reboots. I rather think we have it a little too easy :) Adam.

Canon printers
by Matthew Coene 23 May '13

Good afternoon anyone... Was just curious as to whether anyone has had any luck integrating MIBS so Canon iR series can be parsed as proper printers and have stats / toner polled correctly?? I was a little spoiled at my last position where all printers were HP / Konica and supported out of the box... Now not so much... Thanks in advance... Matt.C.

Is there a way to have a user (service account) that won't get logged out of the web interface? We want to display this up on big screens in our NOC, but keep getting logged out. Thanks, Wes

Re: [Observium] NFS - APPS or nfsstat can be graphed with obserium?

The agent is currently only used for the applications framework, and for passing ipmi sensors. The apache script, for example. Adam.
