Saving changes to a large number of sensors
by Robert Williams 07 Oct '19

07 Oct '19

Hi, It seems that on a couple of Cisco ASR9k devices (with exceptionally large counts of sensors) we are now unable to save changes to them. Specifically, setting custom values and enabling or disabling alerts for individual sensors. Now, I remember that during Observium setup (a _long_ time ago) there was a step for amending either PHP or MySQL to allow a very long POST or query or something, which is required when you update a page with hundreds of boxes and buttons on it. I’m assuming either these devices have grown to the point where this setting is no longer adequately large, or perhaps the setting on the server has been inadvertently changed. Either way – I literally cannot remember (or find) the damn setting anywhere. Can someone remind me what it is please? Thanks! Robert Williams Custodian Data Centres https://www.CustodianDC.com

Reset interface graph after upgrade the router
by Laszlo Nemeth 03 Oct '19

03 Oct '19

Hello, I upgraded our Cisco ASR router, and after the upgrade all of ports graphs cleared, so at this moment i have 4 interfaces with 2 days old graphs. I think port ID or something similar things are changed. So now i have 4 files that not touched in the last 2 days: port-19.rrd port-20.rrd port-21.rrd port-3.rrd I think this is the 4 missed graphs. The question is: how can i figure out which rrd means witch interface? From the database or somehow? If i can pair the old rrd and the new rrd i can merge them i think but at this moment i missed the traffic graphs in the last 3 years :) Thanks Laszlo -- László Németh Senior Network Engineer [emarsys]<http://www.emarsys.com/> Emarsys-Technologies Kft Kossuth Lajos utca 7-9.

Changing graph colours to improve readability
by Brandwatch NOC 02 Oct '19

02 Oct '19

Hi, I'm just wondering, has anyone dabbled with getting rrdtool to use more contrasting colours for composite graphs? We have some graphs, such as peering graphs, that are made up of 15+ components, and each component is currently a nearly identical shade of green or purple, which means that even with the legend enabled it is very difficult to see which component is which. I'm imagining that instead of using shades of green, you could use a rainbow of very distinctly different colours and readability would improve. I'm interested to hear whether anyone has tried to do this before, or if it's a non-starter for some reason.

I was able to run my svn update before, but cannot anymore.
by Dana Bostic 27 Sep '19

27 Sep '19

I am looking for suggestions. When I run: svn co http://svn.observium.org/svn/observium/branches/stable observium it just sits there. I am behind a proxy and was able to do two updates in the past, but cannot anymore for some reason. I have verified my settings for the proxy (in ~/.subversion/servers). I would believe that was the issue, but they have not changed since a few months ago when I last updated. I thought it might be authentication issues, so I went to http://svn.observium.org/svn/observium/branches/stable and can use my username and password to get in, works fine. I have removed all authentication (from /root/.subversion/auth) and put in my username and password again at the prompt, still it just sits there. Any suggetions?
