Problem with make graphs on ports
by Janusz Janik 30 Nov '16

30 Nov '16

Good morning, I have problem with making graphs on ports. Observium recognize one of device as: ZXR10 ROS Version V4.6.02A ZXPON C300 Software, Version V2.6.02A.21 Copyright (c) 2000-2006 by ZTE Corporation Compiled Feb 4 2013, 03:49:41 It looks like most of ports do not gathering data: MAC addres is not showing up and traffic is displayed like 0bps. But real traffic exists on these ports. This instance of observium contains more devices. Problems exist on two devices with 72 ports. The other two devices have 48 and 24 ports, and generally traffic has draw properly on these devices. We suspect the key is too big number of ports on single device and observium doesn't "know" what is going on. We use observium community edition Observium CE 0.16.10.8128 (6th October 2016) I attach log from poller: ./poller.php -i 4 -n 1 -dd > /home/janix/poller.log in file. This device is the most important. We can send more log files if it will be necessary. Best regards, Janusz Janik -- Pozdrawiam, Janusz Janik http://idhosting.pl/

Failed dbQuery
by Chip Pleasants 29 Nov '16

29 Nov '16

Hi all, We just upgrade Observium Pro version from 5565 to 8181 a few days. Everything seems to be working from we can tell, although since the upgrade we noticed this message in the db.log. It occurs for multiple devices. We are running Ubuntu 12.04.5. I'm wondering if it is because we are running PHP is 5.3? Has anyone seen this message after upgrading? It would nice to have some idea about the error message before we upgrade to 16.04.1. Thanks for the assistance in advance and let me know if you need any other information. [2016/11/22 20:20:35 -0600] graph.php(21109): Failed dbQuery (#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use ne ar '==)' at line 1), Query: SELECT * FROM `processors` WHERE `processor_type` != 'hr-average' AND `device_id` = '280' AND `processor_id` IN (WyI2MzAiXQ==) [2016/11/22 20:21:26 -0600] graph.php(21109): Failed dbQuery (#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use ne ar ')' at line 1), Query: SELECT * FROM `processors` WHERE `processor_type` != 'hr-average' AND `device_id` = '116' AND `processor_id` IN (WyIxMDMwIl0=) Ubuntu 12.04.5 MySQL Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.5.53 PHP 5.3.10-1ubuntu3.25 Server version: Apache/2.2.22 NET-SNMP version: 5.4.3 RRDtool 1.4.7 Thanks, Chip

Network Interface marked as "ignored" during discovery?
by Kaya Saman 27 Nov '16

27 Nov '16

Hi, I'm trying to get one of my network interfaces to appear in Observium but for some strange reason it is being marked as "ignored"? In my config.php I haven't included any statements to ignore any devices and the poll time for this particular machine is only a few seconds considering that it's connection to the network is via wifi. The output of #sudo -u www ./discovery.php -h <host> -f shows: ##### Module Start: ports ##### o Caching OIDs ifDescr ifAlias ifName ifType ifOperStatus o Caching DB 2 ports o Discovering ports ..X +---------+--------------------------------+-------------+---------+------------------+-------------+---------+ | ifIndex | ifDescr | ifName | ifAlias | ifType | Oper Status | Ignored | +---------+--------------------------------+-------------+---------+------------------+-------------+---------+ | 1 | lo | lo | ... | softwareLoopback | up | no | | 2 | Realtek Semiconductor Co., ... | ens33 | ... | ethernetCsmacd | down | no | | 3 | wlp0s29f7u7 | wlp0s29f7u7 | ... | ethernetCsmacd | up | yes | +---------+--------------------------------+-------------+---------+------------------+-------------+---------+ o Duration 0.2046s Observium is seeing the interface but just ignoring it? In the UI I don't see anywhere to view 'ignored' ports; I only see "alerts", "down" and "deleted". The port does however, show up under the Inventory section. Does anyone have any idea on how to make this interface not be 'ignored'? After 2 days of searching for an answer I can only conclude that perhaps I need to make this change on the actual MySQL DB itself though I do not know the location of the 'ignore' section of ports/interfaces <- that and this is probably a really bad way of doing things too....! Many Thanks. Kaya

What determines a devices' uniqueness?

Hi All, We're currently evaluating observium as a our main network monitoring tool. We're using Observium CE 0.16.10.8128 and wondering how observium determines a device as unique? We currently have the same switch added twice (via auto discovery) into observium and wondered why observium didn't detect it as the same device. Thanks for a wonderful tool!

Apache hanging (probably not Observium issue but Apache issue)
by Jesper Frank Nemholt 20 Nov '16

20 Nov '16

Hi! I've started to see that on specific actions from within the Observium GUI Apache will lock up. It seems random what action it is, but all Apache workers stop responding and it takes forever to restart Apache afterwards (5-10 min to do a service httpd restart). Anyone had the same issue ? I see no errors in the Apache logs and no errors in Observium logs, nor in other logs on the LInux server (CentOS 7.2). Observium polling still run as usual, so it's just the web interface stopping. /Jesper

Hello all, I am new to Observium, i am wondering if it is possible to have both the 'hostname' and 'IP address' of our monitored devices in 'devices' -> 'All Devices' tap? Actually i can either add a device by : 1) Its IP address thus i won't have the 'hostname' 2) Or add the 'hostname" and 'IP address' in (/etc/hosts) and add the equipment on Observium, with this option i won't have the IP address
