25 Aug '16

Hello, I’m using Observium on a virtual machine, with rrdtool 1.6.0 and rrdcached. For now, it takes up to 80 seconds to poll 87 devices. I'm just curious - is it good or bad time? poller-wrapper.py(10710): /opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py: polled 87 devices in 77.74 seconds with 12 workers Regards,

Openstreetmap / Cartocdn wrong certificate
by Matthias Cramer 22 Aug '16

22 Aug '16

Hi All I just came back from vacation and updated Observium. The map is now done with OSM/Carto, which is nice, boot it took me a while to find out why no map was loading. As it looks like all the cdn nodes have no SAN for *.basemaps.cartocdn.com The tiles get loaded in my browser from a.basemaps.cartocdn.com b.basemaps.cartocdn.com c.basemaps.cartocdn.com After adding an exception for these, all works well.. Does anyone have the same issue?

Observium LDAP Edit Users very buggy
by Dano, Leo 19 Aug '16

19 Aug '16

Hello, I think I may have found the specific device access only via the Edit Users area. The only issue is that it is hit n miss. I sometimes can see my ldap users that have logged in and sometimes not. Once I do see the users, I edit one and give that person access to a group, but if I click any link, it puts me back at the login page. Which takes a few tries to log back in. Then sometimes when I click the edit users, no users show up. Is this part of the bugginess of Observium and LDAP integration? I am using the latest version per Subscription. Thanks, ----------------------- Leo Dano

Rancid integration - config tabs won't show up
by Pirmin Sidler - Computerline 17 Aug '16

17 Aug '16

Hi @ll First, I want to give you guys from Observium a big thumb up because having a such easy webapp, so easily maintainable, so powerful and all without marketing layers and super complicated licensing makes you kind of unique on the market. Now to the issue, I'm trying to integrate my rancid files into the latest stable version of Observium (did it last week following official observium tutorial). Now I have multiple entries in the config.php (because of multiple router.db files/directories in rancid) : $config['rancid_configs'][] = "/var/lib/rancid/ juniper1/configs/"; $config['rancid_configs'][] = "/var/lib/rancid/ juniper2/configs/"; $config['rancid_configs'][] = "/var/lib/rancid/ juniper3/configs/"; $config['rancid_ignorecomments'] = 0; All the /var/lib/rancid/ directory is chowned by rancid:rancid. www-data is in rancid group. I restarted apache2. I cleared the cache from browser. I checked the config in the observium web-interface and it's correctly read by the server (I see the lines above). I checked the hostnames, and the ones I am backing up with rancid are matching the ones registered in the observium. But there are some observium devices I am not backing up yet. (I guess it's not an issue right?). Can anybody help me out with this? Thanks a lot Kind regards, Freundliche Grüsse, Pirmin Sidler System & Network Engineer [cid:image001.jpg@01D1F865.CC141AB0]

UNIX agent for PostgreSQL creating a new RRD file every poll since Aug 12
by Musall Maik 16 Aug '16

16 Aug '16

Hi, I noticed that postgresql application data disappeard on all servers recently. It ran fine for years, but since Aug 12, a new rrd file gets created on every poll, and the postgresql application tab is absent for all servers. I'm updating my installation daily on 9am, so this started happening after the Aug 12 update. Here's the oldest few files (out of over 1200 so far) for one of the servers: -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:40 app-postgresql-12.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:35 app-postgresql-11.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:30 app-postgresql-10.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:25 app-postgresql-9.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:20 app-postgresql-8.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:15 app-postgresql-7.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:10 app-postgresql-6.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:05 app-postgresql-5.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Apr 14 09:00 app-postgresql-_index_.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Apr 16 2015 app-postgresql-.rrd Apparently some change went wrong?

Thoughts on "locations" front-page module
by Daniel Horth 15 Aug '16

15 Aug '16

In our setup the ‘map’ frontage module is pretty and impresses exec level types, however the space is mostly wasted as far as an engineer is concerned, requiring multiple clicks to drill in to areas of interest. I’d like to have the location table as seen at http://observium/locations <http://observium/locations> on my home page instead. Is this an option that can be implemented simply enough? Does anyone else think that this is a good idea? Thanks for looking!

Please help create an alert :) Nexus FEX PS problem
by Laszlo Nemeth 11 Aug '16

11 Aug '16

Hello At the night the Observium showed an alert (fortunately) that I never set up in the Alert checks . I see this alert in Global/Alerts and the left up box there is an “1 alert” in the Statuses row. If I click the “1 alert” it shows me that a Cisco Nexus FEX modul’s powersupply EVENT is alert and Status is offDenied. So it is a dead PS. What I can to do if I would like to get alert if this happen again? I have lot of Alert Checks but I am not able to do an alert for this PS check because I don’t know what is the correct Entity match of it. I tried the “sensor_class equals powersupply” and Test is “sensor_value greater 2” (looks the normal PS value is 2, now this failed PS value is 4). But it doesn’t work (no matched entities). Thanks Laszlo

alerting problem
by Laszlo Nemeth 11 Aug '16

11 Aug '16

Hello, At the morning I was on the 7933 but 2 hours ago I updated to 8039. I used a CPU alert for my routers. In the older version it is worked, I got the alerts via mail and PagerDuty as I set up. Now after the upgrade I would like to test the alerting because on 7933 i “pached” the pagerduty.inc.php for more info in the PD message (the default file just send like “something wrong somewhere” :) So. After the upgrade with the original (nor pached) PD file I would like a test to see how looks out a PD message now. I set a lower value for the CPU alerting (from 50% to 15%) to generate alerting (now the cpu load is 18-25%) After a few minutes I see in the Alers / Processor that my deviced appear and show that the status is FAILED. It is ok. In the Alert Logging I get the “Checks failed” so it is great. But. I never get “Alert notification sent” messages. (I get “Alert notification sent” for other events, so the alerting is working for other services). I see in the Alerts that the router’s status is Failed, Checked 18s Changed 20m 36s, Alerted: never. What I have to do for send the alerts? Or for the debug? Thanks BR Laszlo
