AS400
by Ciro Iriarte 28 Feb '12

28 Feb '12

Hi, if anyone has interest and time to add AS400 on iseries support I can provide sample data using SNMPSIM. I found the following documentation: >From IBM: http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg244504.pdf http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r4/topic/books/sc415412.… Which MIBs are used: http://lists.skills-1st.co.uk/mharc/html/nv-l/2001-01/msg00237.html MIB definitions (the 5 mentioned above are included here): http://www.mibdepot.com/cgi-bin/vendor_index.cgi?r=ibm Regards, -- Ciro Iriarte http://cyruspy.wordpress.com --

Traffic
by Nuno Dias 24 Feb '12

24 Feb '12

Hi, I'm testing the observium and already added a couple of devices, (several switch one router and some linux boxes) All this devices have at least 1Gb network cards or ports in the case of switchs, some have 10Gb ports. But in my graphs I have at most 100/120 Mb peaks, but I'm sure that I have more traffic in some ports, because I have other monitoring system (cacti) showing that. I remember that in cacti I had to configure the counters to be 64-bits and convert bytes in bits. So, do I need to configure in observium this kind of things? if yes where? or this is some kind of bug? Thanks Nuno -- Nuno Dias <ndias(a)lip.pt> LIP

Limit Views and devices groups
by Ciro Iriarte 20 Feb '12

20 Feb '12

Hi!, how do you guys scale in heterogeneous administrative environments?. For example: - Within an administrative domain would be nice to group the devices involved in a particular high level service. - Currently I have a mix of devices and would like to see them all, but some administrator for example would like to see only their hardware. Would it be possible to limit access to a set of devices?. >From what I know, the only way right now would be to have many observium instances for different people, but that would be an issue if some people would like to see all the hardware....

LDAP authentication with AD
by Bao Nguyen 17 Feb '12

17 Feb '12

Does anyone know the correct parameters for binding with Active Directory for Observium? Is there a way to make it use SSL? I've used the configuration below but get a blank page after attempting to login. I have not tried dig through the logs to find out what's the issues are but if someone know of the correct parameters I would love to try it first. #$config['auth_mechanism'] = "ldap"; # default, other options: ldap, http-auth #$config['auth_ldap_version'] = 3; # v2 or v3 #$config['auth_ldap_server'] = "beernuts.ad.ucsd.edu"; #$config['auth_ldap_port'] = 636; #$config['auth_ldap_suffix'] = ",ou=SDSC,dc=UCSD,dc=EDU"; thanks, -bn 0216331C

widescreen ports graphs
by Nikolay Shopik 15 Feb '12

15 Feb '12

Hey Adam, Just quick note, that widescreen mode on ports graph doesn't working property. These 4 graphs should fill all available width, but instead using proportion from normal mode. And I wonder if there way we could able to select multiply different port types, like transit+peering. I mean come up with different control where you could select not only one state?

Re: [Observium] C6K Fabric stats not being recorded any more

Robert, Do you know what revision you were running when it still worked? Probably something broke or disappeared or so when you updated a few weeks ago and didnt get fixed until now... Tom ----- Reply message ----- From: "Robert Williams" <Robert(a)CustodianDC.com> To: "'Observium Network Observation System'" <observium(a)observium.org> Subject: [Observium] C6K Fabric stats not being recorded any more Date: Fri, Feb 3, 2012 10:55 Hi all, I'm still not getting very far with this one :( Out of desperation I deleted and re-added one 6509 chassis and now it doesn't even show the stats for the fabric, it's just missing the whole "Catalyst 6k Crossbar" section? I'm running the latest (2854) revision. Any ideas please? Robert Williams Backline / Operations Team Custodian DataCentre tel: +44 (0)1622 230382 email: Robert(a)CustodianDC.com http://www.custodiandc.com/disclaimer.txt -----Original Message----- From: Robert Williams Sent: 01 February 2012 16:53 To: Observium Network Observation System Subject: C6K Fabric stats not being recorded any more Hi Guys, For some (unknown) reason all of our catalyst chassis (650x-E) have recently stopped recording data for their Crossbar usage on all their cards. Data is visible up to a couple of weeks ago, but then stops and nothing more has been recorded since. The permission on the rrd are fine, and the file itself hasn't been modified since the day the data stopped being recorded. Interestingly, the usage 'bar' next to the (blank) graph shows usage on it correctly. So, as a test, I moved the rrd files for one chassis out of its folder then did a full redetect of the one host in question. Since then it doesn't appear to have made any effort to re-create the RRD file :( So, any ideas on why this one element would stop working suddenly? Or alternatively, is there a way to 'force' Observium to re-create it's rrd files for specific sensors on demand? Any input most welcome :) Cheers, _______________________________________________ observium mailing list observium(a)observium.org http://postman.memetic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/observium
