Juniper stack polling - better but still hurting
by Aaron Finney 12 Sep '15

12 Sep '15

Hello all, Moving forward with our POC, and almost everything is perfect...the one thing that's still nagging us is the long polling times for our Juniper switch stacks. Our newest QFX 5k 96s 2-member stacks are now down under 300 seconds after upping max-requests to 70 (~230 seconds now), but our older EX stacks are still taking longer than the polling interval (~330 seconds) to complete. I realize it's the length of time that the Junipers take to handle the snmpbulkwalk of IfEntry and IfEntryX, but has anyone come up with a workaround to date? Obviously stripping OIDs out of the standard MIBs is not a solution because it could break other devices, but is there a possibility I could create an "IfEntry-lite" version that would be exclusive to the EX platform? Or even a custom poller that uses JunoScript instead of snmp? I'm looking for any reasonable solution, even if it takes some work to implement. Thanks!

The switch we can detect. The router seems to be reporting a bogus sysobjectid. Do the routers support adsl-mib? Adam.

Support for Nortel/Avaya
by AJ Schroeder 09 Sep '15

09 Sep '15

Hello list, Let me get this out of the way; I am not a developer. Anyway, I have the pleasure of supporting a network that has older Nortel and Avaya devices on it. I've added them to observium and as expected they are showing up as generic devices. I browsed through the developer section on how to add new device support and I have followed those steps and have added some very basic support for Nortel switches (OS version and Serial Number) First question - would this extra support be of any interest to the Observium devs? I'd like to add more meaningful information such as CPU/Memory utilization, flash usage, etc. However, that step appears to be a bit more challenging. Second question - is this documented somewhere or do I need to "reverse engineer" this support from the existing scripts? Any help or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks, AJ Schroeder

unix agent issues
by Robbie Wright 09 Sep '15

09 Sep '15

Trying to get the unix agent setup on a machine with bind to test it out. The scripts for Observium and bind are working on the local machine, but Observium isn't showing the modules. The module is enabled for the device but when trying to telnet from Observium, we're just getting "Connection closed by foreign host." Xinetd is running and listening on the port but isn't responding correctly. There are some typos on the agent installation page on the site (/usr/lib vs /usr/bin) and in the xinetd conf file, but we seem to have those straightened out. Anyone have any tricks up your sleeves for getting the agent to be happy with life? ufw/iptables is off for testing on Ubuntu 14.04 and we're running the subscription edition.
