Event log showing 'changed' entries every 5 minutes
by Richard Kuhns 04 Oct '21

04 Oct '21

Hello, We're running Observerium Professional 21.10.11636. Every 5 minutes the same 'changed' entries show up in the event log (screenshot below). The device in question is a Cisco ASR9K. Browsing to the device's page it looks like the changes below aren't actually be applied (no serial number listed, hardware is generic). How can I go about fixing this? Thanks in advance! -- Richard Kuhns <rjk(a)wintek.com> Systems Administrator Wintek Powered by Tipmont Main: 765-742-8428 Direct: 765-269-8541

Problems with Checkpoint Gaia interface naming
by Hofer, Elmar (BITBW) 04 Oct '21

04 Oct '21

Dear List-Users, maybe someone can help me with my problem as it seems to happen quite often. Checkpoint uses different names in the ifDescr and ifNames field. The correct interface names are in the ifNames field. Now Observium uses the ifDescr field to display the interface names, because normally both fields have the same conntent. I'm lokking for an option to change this behaviar. It would be great to get an hint where to look for this problem to resolve. Thanks for your help. Yours Elmar

Guys, how do I load mibs not listed in the /mibs folder? We have a project where we will be monitoring IP camaras, and I can see that dahua is listed there, but not the ones we will be using. I requested the info to the manufacturer and they just sent the OID definition in an excel and they will be sending the mibs file later Please advice Thanks!

Hi How do you change the password for the client area on observium.org? Are there any function for that I can use myself or does this need to be done centrally? ---- Regards Daniel

unending disk space growth?
by Adam Thompson 27 Sep '21

27 Sep '21

Since we last rebuilt our Observium instance in late 2019, we've noticed that it's chewing up disk space at a prodigious rate, that we didn't see before. We're seeing a steady ~300BG/month increase in storage needs. Observium, of course, monitors itself, and the line on the storage graph is a nearly-perfect slope (after adjusting for disk size increases). This came to my attention this morning (again), when we ran out of disk space (again) and I had to expand the volume (again) to continue operating. (So much for our alerting... oops.) We have added a few new devices, but not 1TB worth, and not consistently and constantly since late 2019. Since RRD files are - in theory - fixed-size, why does /opt/obvservium/rrd keep growing without bound? And how can I predict future growth? Will it ever stop? Help? Anyone? -Adam Adam Thompson Consultant, Infrastructure Services [1593169877849] 100 - 135 Innovation Drive Winnipeg, MB, R3T 6A8 (204) 977-6824 or 1-800-430-6404 (MB only) athompson(a)merlin.mb.ca<mailto:athompson@merlin.mb.ca> www.merlin.mb.ca<http://www.merlin.mb.ca/>

Changes to alarm checkers
by Daniel Johansson 23 Sep '21

23 Sep '21

Hi I see that some changes has been done to how you build the alarm checkers since a while back. Before you had to type everything out to match everything, devices, entitys and association,conditions. Now some of the things we have matched for and has worked no longer works. Also there are some stuff that I could match for before but not any londer. for example in a few cisco devices I run som links with macsec and I want to verify that the encryption is running and send an alert if not. This I can not do any more. see picture for the data I want to use: How can I still use this in observium 21.9.11575 (stable) ? ---- Regards Daniel
