Contact for subscription and another question

Hi, Just a quick couple of questions. I've been off the list for a bit. - I want to purchase a sub for Observium, but being public sector we have some weird ways of paying for things. Who should the purchasing department contact? - Does the WMI stuff work for exchange? I send a mail about it a while back, and it certainly would be useful to us, or at least pointers to how the wmi framework function would be good so I can do some scripting myself. Any ideas if the wmi scripts work for 2010 exchange - I've only seen anything done via powershell there.. Thanks Andy

IP SLA
by Jeffrey d'Ambly 31 May '15

31 May '15

Hello, I am using the observium professional edition and I’ve been looking into configuring IP SLA on all my cisco devices to monitor our WAN. I have the following config on two devices to just test the waters Destination device config ip sla responder source device config ip sla 1 udp-jitter 10.34.36.2 16384 source-ip 10.34.36.1 frequency 300 ip sla schedule 1 start-time now My question is what does the community do as a best practice for IP SAL configurations. As I have it configure now it’s send 10 packets every 5 minutes. This seems like a bad idea because what if there was a network blip between the 5 minute run time? If there was packet loss I would like observium to detect it, and send out an alert. Do I need to configure the ip sla service to constantly run? And if so how do I make sure all that data is there when observium polls it next. —Jeff

Is it possible to create a Group in Observium based on the location of a device? I don't see location as one of the attributes available to associate the device. Thanks. --Vincent

Is there any way to change the temperature readings to display in fahrenheit rather than celsius? I know we Americans should have moved to the metric system 40 years ago but this is a request from management.

CareFlight QLD
by Stephen Penfold 28 May '15

28 May '15

Good Morning/Afternoon, We are currently trialling Observium on several of network components and so far are impressed with the community version however threshold and state alerting is an important feature that would complete the package for us and enable us to deploy it network wide. With Careflight being a non-for-profit organisation and the IT department being a ‘cost’ department our budget is heavily scrutinised and any cost has to be suitably justified. Although we are impressed with Observium and believe it would be a great solution for monitoring our remote sites throughout Queensland, unfortunately we doubt that the cost would be approved by the higher powers as this is something that is currently ‘out of budget’. So this leads us to ask, would it be possible to get a discount/donation on the subscription charge for the professional version of Observium for CareFlight? Any help would be greatly appreciated and please feel free to contact us if you need to. Looking forward to your reply and thanks for your time.
