Setting up email alert notifications
by Alex Winder ＠ M5i 07 Nov '15

07 Nov '15

Hi, I'm looking to set up alert notifications to help with the monitoring of the devices which we already have loaded into Observium, but having some trouble. See below attached image. This is how I currently have alert checkers set. As you can see there are 0 entities being loaded into all alert checks, despite using all devices, and I can't find anything about how to get entities to load. Could someone assist me in how to successfully set up the notifications? We have over 200 devices being monitored in Observium, adding email notifications would improve the system dramatically for us. Regards, Alex.

RANCID Integration with RHEL
by Johnson, Edward A. 06 Nov '15

06 Nov '15

I’m trying to install RANCID on Observium using the doc http://www.observium.org/docs/rancid/. I get as far as Run this command to create the folder structure: su - rancid /var/lib/rancid/bin/rancid-cvs but get -bash: /var/lib/rancid/bin/rancid-cvs: No such file or directory Is there a different directory when running Observium on RHEL that I should be using to create the folder structure?

BlueWalker/PowerWalker EPPC UPS
by Glyn Parker 06 Nov '15

06 Nov '15

Hei, I have an BlueWalker (Powerwalker) UPS and added support for my (VFI2000 LCD) as attached. This should work for all VFIs and others with the same god dam ObjectID of .1.3.6.1.4.1.935.10.1 (which should be all EPPC manufactured units). Im not an expert in Observium or all things SNMP, but this was my work. If others find it useful, then great. PS: Dont read this Yes its yet another UPS MIB which EPPC could have done with RFC1628. The unit supports RFC1628 but not enough to be ideal ;( I didnt want to make some bastard mix of both MIBS as that's just twice the mess. Best regards /Glyn

Re: [Observium] CASA CMTS - 32bit counters used instead of 64bit.
by T-MONT Administrator 06 Nov '15

06 Nov '15

Hi Tom, I'm not sure if I got your point :) Casa c2200 CMTS does respond with 64bit counters, for example: # snmpget -v2c -c xxxx 1.1.1.1 IF-MIB::ifHCOutOctets.77 IF-MIB::ifHCInOctets.77 IF-MIB::ifHCOutOctets.77 = Counter64: 2351994689934 IF-MIB::ifHCInOctets.77 = Counter64: 319195830460 I was wondering if it's possible to force Observium to query those. Regards, Pawel > If you make the device reply with 64bit counters, we'll happily use > them. > That includes using v2c/v3, as v1 does not do HC counters!

Graphs not drawing after update to rev 7172
by Tim Vaughan 06 Nov '15

06 Nov '15

This afternoon I updated my installation to 7172 via svn. Since then, my graphs are being drawn blank (e.g. this one of the poller duration: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3183918/pollergraph.png. Ignore the earlier gap, it's the one from about 1630 onwards I'm talking about). I've done *./discovery.php -u* as normal and have manually run *./poller.php -h all*. I have checked /pollerlog and it doesn't appear to be running automatically by cron as usual. Any ideas? Tim

LDAP Issue
by Quentin Beggs 06 Nov '15

06 Nov '15

Hi - I'm trying to configure LDAP authentication according to the authentication page on the observium website, but it doesn't appear to be working. If I try a login that should work or one that doesn't work the result is the same - the login fields blank out again with no error message. Just wondering how I go about fixing this? Alternatively is there any log files that can offer some explanation as to why it's not working? I've had a look but can't find any. Thanks, Quentin
