Alerts interval.
by Gabriel Zamorski 07 Sep '16

07 Sep '16

Hello, I have this parameter $config['alerts']['interval’] with a value 86400 to resend alert notification after a day. Is there any option to have custom intervals depending on alert checker name or.. device name or something?

I/O Latency Metric Alert?
by Robert Williams 07 Sep '16

07 Sep '16

Hi, Is there an attachment point for alerts to be triggered from the metric of I/O Latency? Reason for asking is that I could do with an alert checker which would have spotted this issue (the scale is in seconds!): It went unnoticed overnight until it crippled a virtual host when users started accessing VMs on it this morning. The underlying fault was a RAID card issue, but nothing else detected it and I've just found that Observium 'knew' about it, but we have not alerts which would have caught this. Any ideas? Cheers!

Device Commets and notes
by Andy Lemin 02 Sep '16

02 Sep '16

Hi, I can see that a ticket has been raised for adding a place to add comments and notes to devices on ticket OBSERVUM-249 http://jira.observium.org/browse/OBSERVIUM-249 The workaround is to use the Description field. However this field is too small to store much useful info, and cannot be read easily as the field does not expand to show more characters. It would be really nice to have the field be able to show all our device notes, currently you can see the information is clipped beyond 65 CHARS as seen below in this example; Thanks and keep up the great work (we love Observium here) :) Cheers, Andy *Linux ar1406 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt25-2 (2016-04-08) x86_64* Description Old Hypervisor running some networking VMs etc. The disk mode is Hardware Generic x86 [64bit] Operating system Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 System name ar1406 Contact Me <me(a)example.org> Location Sitting on the Dock of the Bay Uptime 106 days, 20h 10m 13s

IPMI
by Laurence Mayer 02 Sep '16

02 Sep '16

Hi, I have two servers both with IPMI ports enabled and working. Within Observium I have configured the IPMI Settings for both servers. For one of the servers Observium displays the relevant IPMI information (e.g, CPU Temp etc) however for the second server, the information is not displayed. Firmware are identical. I have confirmed the IPMI configuration a number of times and connectivity does not appear to be the issue. Anyway to troubleshoot this? Thanks Laurence

APC NetBotz. Support for 'Dry contact inputs'....?
by Henrik Cednert (Filmlance) 01 Sep '16

01 Sep '16

Hello Not sure if this is the proper channel for feature requests. But it would be awesome to have support for the ‘Dry contact inputs’ on the APC NetBotz devices. Still not sure how to do a proper likeable snmpwalk so someone will probably shake their head and wave their fist in fury over this one. But hey, at least I tired. =) Snmpwalk output: http://pastebin.com/qcV8vX98 That one have 4 connected ‘dry contact inputs’ and you can see their name under for instance ‘emsProbeConfigProbeName.<n>’, ‘emsProbeStatusProbeName.<n>’ and ‘emsInputContactConfigInputContactName.<n>’ and then some... Also normal state and current state are represented in that walk. This particular netbotz is in charge of switching to secondary cooling circuit and firing those pumps up in case of failure on main circuit. So would be really nice to have that monitored in Observium. =) Cheers and thanks Ps. If my snmpwalk sucks, tell me once and for all how to do it and how it is supposed to look. =) -- Henrik Cednert cto | compositor Filmlance International | www.filmlance.se mobile [ + 46 (0)704 71 89 54 ] skype [ cednert ]
