Poller wrapper history stopped working
by Silvio del Val Hinojal 06 Oct '17

Hello, We have upgraded Observium from CE to Pro version following upgrade document, we are now running 17.9.8859 (stable) version and, since then, global "Poller Wrapper history" stopped working. Now it shows "- nan" in all fields. This is what it shows now: [cid:image002.png@01D33E9A.3B2E1D80] Any hint?

Multiple mailing options
by Franks Andy (IT Technical Architecture Manager) 06 Oct '17

Hi all, We have a scenario where we'd like, for certain alerts, to not only send via the default mail settings but also to forward to an external sms portal. This particular portal is fairly simple and works via sending an email to a certain domain with a phone number prefix. We'd need to use different mail settings for this purpose though and I was wondering if someone could think of the best way to do this. I can't really find many examples for the external script or web hook transport methods, and ideally we'd be able to do most of the configuration and filtering directly within observium rather than doing the messaging logic elsewhere. Thanks Andy

Alarm on VLAN?
by Ryan, Spencer 05 Oct '17

05 Oct '17

Hey Guys, Is there any way to write an alert check to alarm if a VLAN is seen on a port (either access or trunk?). We have a few "untrusted" networks that we want to know if they get stuck on a trunk somewhere they shouldn't be. Thanks!

VPN site-to-site monitoring by name
by Satish Patel 04 Oct '17

04 Oct '17

I have posted on JIRA http://jira.observium.org/browse/OBS-2438 But just wonder if anyone has any solution for this issue, we have many site-to-site tunnel and in observium its just showing count but it would be good if it shows list of tunnel by name so easy to identify down tunnel and alert.

Graphs not rendering correctly
by Mal Evans 04 Oct '17

04 Oct '17

Hi all, Seem to be having a problem with the graphs on my new install (CE). See the example below: As you can see there are regular gaps in the display. I am wondering if this might have something to do with a polling cycle etc? not sure where to start investigating so any suggestions are welcome. As far as I can tell every graph shows similar behaviour. Cheers Mal

p2p radio detection
by Joey Stanford 04 Oct '17

04 Oct '17

Howdy, We noticed not that long ago that Ubiquity devices gained p2p radio detection. Is there any consideration for Ubutiks (Ubiquity RF + Microtik routerboard)? We have a number of these and the device_state array contains the p2p radio info just like the Ubiquity radios do. Discovery put the ubutiks into the network category like a normal mikrotik. We’ve been changing them over by hand to wireless for categorization. Thanks, Joey
