SNMP Traps
by O'Connor, Gerry 08 Feb '18

08 Feb '18

Hi, Does Observium provide a mechanism for receiving SNMP Traps from devices for error conditions and then translating those Traps into email notifications? We have a number of power monitors in our environment that do not support snmpget or snmpwalk so Observium cannot poll them for data. The power monitors do support sending Traps when the Power (Amps) being consumed crosses above or below a certain threshold. I looked over docs.observium.org and the FAQ and didn't see anything regarding this. Thanks Gerry

Observium - Unable to generate email notifications from Syslog Alerts
by Shaun Stokes 07 Feb '18

07 Feb '18

Hi All, Observium Professional 17.11.8960 (29th November 2017) OS: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 [amd64] (Debian 8.7) Apache: 2.4.10 (Debian) PHP: 5.6.30-0+deb8u1 (OPcache: ENABLED) Python: 2.7.9 MySQL: 5.5.54-0+deb8u1 (extension: mysqli 5.5.54) SNMP: NET-SNMP 5.7.2.1 RRDtool: 1.4.8 (rrdcached 1.4.8: unix:/var/run/rrdcached.sock) We are unable to generate email notifications from Syslog Alerts. We are able to generate email notifications from Alert Checkers for the same contacts, and we are able to generate Syslog Alerts on Observium from the Syslog Rules but the associated Contacts do not receive email notifications for those Syslog Alerts. Essentially everything works except for the last step 'Generating Notifications' following the documentation: http://docs.observium.org/alerting_syslog/ We've run a Rebuild via the Web UI, have re-created the Syslog Rules and Contacts and have been through the global configuration but can't find anything obvious. Has anyone come across this problem before, or have any ideas on what would be the next step? Thanks, Shaun? ? ______________________________________________________________________ This message has been checked for all known viruses by MessageLabs Virus Scanning Service. ______________________________________________________________________

Notifications by Contact
by Hermes J. Martinez 05 Feb '18

05 Feb '18

There is a way to make that the notifications send a user of an specific device? The idea is that the IT Manager of one office in Mazatlán only receive notifications for the device of that office and the IT Manager of Cabo receive the notifications of his devices in Cabo, is this possible? kind Regards Hermes J.

Cisco ASA IP SLA Reporting & HA Failover Alerting
by Storer, Darren 03 Feb '18

03 Feb '18

IPA SLA status is correctly reported from our core VSS switch but does not appear from ASA devices. Does anyone else see IP SLA reported from Cisco ASA firewalls? (Tried 9.7 and 9.8(2) software versions). On the subject of Cisco ASA, does anyone have HA failover correctly alerting? I've tried to implement an alert but not quite mastered the technique. [image: Inline images 1] [image: Inline images 2] Thanks in advance for any advice Darren

MIBs definitions split in r9028
by Mike Stupalov 03 Feb '18

03 Feb '18

Hi Observiumians, today I split huge hard to maintain includes/definitions/mibs.inc.php file into multiple files in includes/definitions/mibs/ sub-dirrectory. If you not have local (uncommited) changes for support some your own devices, just ignore this mail. For you nothing has changed :) If you have changes in this definition, please move it into appropriate definition file, where filename based on mib_dir (<mib_dir>.inc.php), ie for cisco: includes/definitions/mibs/cisco.inc.php Old definition content in mibs.inc.php is still left, for prevent update conflicts. But will removed after (around) r9500. So, do happy observiuming ;) -- Mike Stupalov Observium Limited, http://observium.org

device groups and permissions
by Richard Wigzell 02 Feb '18

02 Feb '18

Hello, we use device groups combined with user permissions to give various teams specific views of the estate, grouped by different sets of infrastructure - i.e. some users are allowed to see more than one group. We cannon however select the groups from the front page: [cid:image003.png@01D39C54.EB0F49F0] But get permission issue. [cid:image004.png@01D39C54.EB0F49F0] User with groups. [cid:image002.png@01D39C53.E72E34A0] We can however still see the devices in the groups and select them from in the device search page. Any help would be welcome.

Feature request
by Attila Nagy 02 Feb '18

02 Feb '18

Hi everyone! I've got a small (is it?!) feature request: A toggle switch "Intermittent" or "Intermittently connected" for every device to be able to select it to indicate the alerting system that it is normal for this device to go away and come back frequently, no need to issue alarms for this, but any other alarm should be run as usual. The rationale for this is we have lots of user devices (PC's, printers, what-else), these are switched on-off at users will so Observium shouldn't alert us about that (maybe the usual grey marking on the name as for ignore) but there are some parameters that are important to monitor (like hard disk usage, toner level) and which should have their alarms working. This way the currently available option "Device ignore" will not work, as it will disable the alarms altogether. Is this sane/easy enough to be included sometimes in the future? Are there already plans for this? Regards, Tylla
