Cant get cron job to run
by dfiorini＠linktransit.com 28 May '26

28 May '26

Hi all, I have taken over an Observium install and am trying to get it back up and running since most of the new devices are not in it. Every device I add I have to manually run the discovery and poller. I have checked the txt file in /etc/cron.d/observium and it reads: # Run a complete discovery of all devices once every 6 hours 33 */6 * * * root /opt/observium/observium-wrapper discovery >> /dev/null 2>&1 # Run automated discovery of newly added devices every 5 minutes */5 * * * * root /opt/observium/observium-wrapper discovery --host new >> /dev/null 2>&1 # Run multithreaded poller wrapper every 5 minutes */5 * * * * root /opt/observium/observium-wrapper poller-wrapper.py 10 >> /dev/null 2>&1 # Run housekeeping script daily for syslog, eventlog and alert log 13 5 * * * root /opt/observium/housekeeping.php -ysel >> /dev/null 2>&1 # Run housekeeping script daily for rrds, ports, orphaned entries in the database and performance data 47 4 * * * root /opt/observium/housekeeping.php -yrptb >> /dev/null 2>&1 Is it just a matter of creating this text file in this folder and it automatically runs or am I missing a step to get it to run every 5 mins etc. Thanks!

Fix for hdarray
by Chris James 17 Apr '26

17 Apr '26

We have continued to have an issue where PERC controller status is flagged as failed on pretty much all our Poweredge Rx20, Rx30, Rx40, Rx50, Rx60 servers. We finally got to the bottom of it today. Please can the following be corrected. Root Cause: perccli64 requires an open stdin to function correctly. When it runs with stdin closed (<&-), it returns Status = Failure instead of querying the controller. The Observium agent script closes stdin as a security measure (exec <&- 2>/dev/null) before running all local scripts, so every time the agent ran our hdarray script via the socket, perccli silently failed. The Fix: Add </dev/null to all four perccli calls in the hdarray script so the binary gets a valid (empty) stdin rather than a closed file descriptor: $CLI show nolog </dev/null 2>/dev/null $CLI /c${ctrl} show nolog > $RAID 2>&1 </dev/null $CLI /c${ctrl}/vall show nolog > $RAID 2>&1 </dev/null $CLI /c${ctrl}/eall/sall show nolog > $RAID 2>&1 </dev/null What made this so hard to diagnose: The script worked perfectly in every direct test (setsid, bash -x, env -i, running as root via ssh) because all those methods leave stdin open. It only failed via the agent socket where stdin was closed - exactly replicating production conditions was key. Many thanks, Chris

fix for nvidia GPU load at 0% but reported as critical

We run a number of machines with nvidia GPU cards and notice that when the load is reported at 0% - which can happen when the machine is idle - its flagged as critical in Observium.

Adding new OS to central but still getting generic
by Bryan E 13 Apr '26

13 Apr '26

Hello, I'm trying some thing. First I have a Central Observium server hosting the DB and graphs. My devices are polled via another Debian-poller who's the only one talking to central observium. I've added a stormshield on observium but it comes as a generic device, so I've tried to follow the guide to add a new OS (https://docs.observium.org/developing/add_os/) my new file /opt/observium/includes/definitions/os/stormshield.inc.php is like the following: $os = "Stormshield"; $config['os'][$os]['vendor'] = "Stormshield"; $config['os'][$os]['text'] = "Stormshield OS"; $config['os'][$os]['type'] = "firewall"; // Set type in polling os $config['os'][$os]['sysObjectID'][] = ".1.3.6.1.4.1.11256.1"; $config['os'][$os]['sysDescr'][] = "/^NS-BSD/"; $config['os'][$os]['mibs'][] = "STORMSHIELD-PROPERTY-MIB"; The MIBS seems OK on /opt/observium/includes/definitions/mibs/stormshield.inc.php redirecting to stormshield folder My folder /opt/observium/mibs/stormshield/ is filled with MIBS but still... I might be missing something because when I execute ./discovery.php -h mydevice_ID -m os on the Debian-Poller it still comes as generic +-------------+------------------------------+ | OID | | +-------------+------------------------------+ | sysDescr | NS-BSD SNSS1XXXXXXX amd64 | | sysObjectID | .1.3.6.1.4.1.11256.1.20.7 | +-------------+------------------------------+ o OS Type generic o OS Group unix

NuDesign SNMP Agent for Windows
by Tony Guadagno 03 Apr '26

Hi, i was wondering if anyone in the community has any experience with using this snmp agent on windows servers? I am frustrated (like we all are) with Microsoft's lack of snmpv3 support as well as some notable omissions from their native snmp agent (for example, lack of mounted volume support as well as service visibility). Has anyone used this agent with Observium?? is it better than the native agent?? thanks in advance https://www.snmp4windows.com/SNMP/snmpv3-agent-service-for-windows/

how can i alert when link is up but eigrp peer (next hop) is down
by Tony Guadagno 02 Apr '26

02 Apr '26

hi, I am hoping someone can give me some suggestions on how to alert when my Cisco router's interface is up/up but the other side is not responding. I just discovered that I have been running on a backup line for a while at one site and did not know it because the primary link did not go "down" is there anything I can do with monitoring eigrp peers etc. It did occur to me that if I set up an sla on the router, I might be able to leverage that, but I would like a solution that did not involve more config on the router. thanks in advance

Webhook alerts and access to alert graph
by Marian Rychtecky 16 Mar '26

16 Mar '26

Hello all, I am integrating Observium alerts with a Matrix notification service and would like the Matrix message to include the alert graph, similar to the standard email alert. While looking at the email transport code, I noticed that it already receives a prepared $context['graphs'] structure. Each graph contains fields such as type, url, and data, and the email transport simply embeds the rendered graph image from that data. With webhook alerts, however, the JSON payload does not appear to include this graph information. Reconstructing the correct graph from the available webhook fields is difficult because the graph type and parameters are not always obvious. Would it be possible for webhook transports to expose the same graph context that is already available to the email transport (for example, the graphs[] array or at least the graph URL? That would make it much easier to integrate Observium alerts with systems such as Matrix or Slack while preserving the graph context included in email alerts. Thanks a lot, Marian -- Marian Rychtecký NIX.CZ, z.s.p.o.

Inquiry regarding HA deployment with 2 Observium server

03 Mar '26

We are currently planning a deployment involving two Observium servers and would appreciate clarification regarding the appropriate edition and recommended architecture. Our objective is to implement a high-availability (HA) setup with the following requirements: * Two Observium servers operating together. * If a device is added for monitoring on one server, it should automatically appear on the other server. * The database should be synchronized between the two servers. * The overall solution should provide redundancy and ensure service continuity if one server fails. Could you please confirm: * Which Observium edition supports this type of multi-server / HA deployment? * Whether native database synchronization between two servers is supported. * Any recommended architecture or best practices for achieving full HA with shared data consistency. We would appreciate your guidance in selecting the correct version and architecture for our needs.
