Re: [Observium] Checkpoint Firewall Support?
by Steve Costaras 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

I do have some older nokia systems (IP380's, IP530's, and I think an IP740) laying around somewhere, but most of the new systems are using Secure Platform (R65, R70, R71, R75) versions and/or UTM's (basically the same thing, they all RedHat Enterprise v5.4 9(2.6.18 kernel) slimmed down with an extra checkpoint mib tree for items outside the base OS). We also have some provider-1 deployments (management station) but that I would consider future if anything. If you know enough about handling the observium code itself I can try helping on the checkpoint side. I have some systems here to test against as well. Steve >-----Original Message----- >From: Rob J.

solaris 10 / net-snmp not getting cpu stats
by Steve Costaras 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

Still testing with various devices here, found an interesting issue. I have a M3000 sun box with solaris 10 on it, which gets added fine and most of the graphs appear to be eyeball correct, however am NOT stats for cpu utilization. The sun box is using net-snmp (included w/ solaris 10)(not the older sun snmpd daemon) which was the default with older systems. doing a manual walk I DO get stats: $ snmpwalk -v2c -c XXXX XXXXX 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.1.0 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.2.0 = STRING: "systemStats" iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.3.0 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.4.0 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.5.0 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.6.0 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.7.0 = INTEGER: 507 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.8.0 = INTEGER: 259 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.9.0 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.10.0 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.11.0 = INTEGER: 99 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.50.0 = Counter32: 1190528 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.52.0 = Counter32: 330481 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.53.0 = Counter32: 136097671 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.54.0 = Counter32: 0 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.55.0 = Counter32: 330481 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.57.0 = Counter32: 0 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.58.0 = Counter32: 0 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.59.0 = Counter32: 898868894 iso.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.60.0 = Counter32: 736460424 so it is showing ticks. but I don't see that mib tree being referenced by doing a poller debug at all? is the solaris support only for perhaps the old snmp (solaris) version which has the entries in a different tree?

Re: [Observium] Missing TenGigabit interfaces on Cisco WC-C4900M
by Adam Armstrong 14 Aug '12

Interfaces are polled via IF-MIB. Almost every device is identical for that. Either you switch is not exposing these interfaces in snmp or they are being filtered. Try running discovery in debug for that host. Adam.

See faq entry about whitespace in your config file.

The graphs display as a broken image icon. If you access the image url directly that is loading /graph.php?.... you still get a broken image. But when you try to debug the issue, (we append &debug=1 to the url) the image displays correctly. Turning on debuging on the parent page yields no useful data, and the graphs are still broken images, but we assume that is because the debug variable isn't passed down to the image url. The graphs are getting generated in the /tmp directory and have valid data. I am at a loss of where to look to figure out what we either forgot to do or have misconfigured.
