Toner History Graphs
by Richard Franks 15 Jul '16

15 Jul '16

I have a bit of an odd one. I have two printers in my observium install. One has been in for ages (an HP laser jet), the other I added a couple of weeks ago (A sharp MFD photocopier thingy). By the looks of things, the HP has been collecting data correctly for ages, and graphing it nicely. I can see the pretty line that shows that the toner has reduced over time. Oddly, it stopped collecting on the 7th July, and hasn’t graphed anything since then. The Sharp, which has been in less time (since Thursday 7th), has never graphed its toner properly. They are both showing the correct level of toner (well, the Sharp is showing two of them at -3, but I’ve checked the snmp output, and it’s returning -3, so that’s nothing to do with observium). Even more weirdly, the toner level on the weekly graph is showing the correct number. The rest show -nan% The Sharp: The HP: I don’t know much about how the graphing side of things works, so I don’t have much knowledge with which to do any debugging, but happy to send more debug info if required! Thanks, Richard

Incorrect free physical memory for Unix hosts
by Oliver Baker 15 Jul '16

15 Jul '16

Hi, Loving Observium in general but the only issue I'm having is that for all our Unix-like hosts the free memory is reported too literally to be useful. The cached memory pool is included in the "used memory" count, causing almost all our hosts to appear as having less than 5% free physical memory. Is there a way to get free memory not including the cached memory pool? Currently the alert checker I'm using is flagging all our hosts as "out of memory" Many thanks in advance Oliver B

Hi It would be awesome if there could be support for Nutanix on Observium. And their Hypervisor Acropolis (KVM based) https://portal.nutanix.com/#/page/docs/details?targetId=Web_Console_Guide-A… When I add my Nutanix CVM's (the controller VM that handles everything)it shows as a generic Linux machine.

Is there a way of adding devices to Observium by IP address (without having a FQDN with DNS for it)? If not, could I do it by editing the values in the database? — Spydar007

Arch -> extension (since 16.04 upgrade)
by Robert Williams 08 Jul '16

08 Jul '16

Hi, Just completed a release upgrade on Observium itself (14.04 to 16.04) and now it is reporting its own architecture as 'extension'. Wouldn't be an issue really, but every single time it polls it updates the event log like this: I've attached a debug output of the poller as this may help to track it down. Interestingly, a lot of our other servers run 16.04 now but it only reports this for 'itself' - not the others. Anyone have any ideas? Cheers!

poller-wrapper.py does not run, but poller.php does
by Chrys Thorsen 07 Jul '16

07 Jul '16

Hi Guys, Newbie here. I just installed the latest version of Observium (subscription) onto Ubuntu 14. It discovered my Cisco router, 15 Cisco switches, and 4 Microsoft servers no problem. HOWEVER, poller-wrapper.py does not run. Days later, still no polling. I have this line in /etc/cron.d/observium: */5 * * * * root /opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py 16 >> /dev/null 2>&1 If I manually run /opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py I get this error: "ERROR: Could not load or parse observium configuration, are PATHs correct?" If I manually run poller.php, all the devices get polled just fine. I don't have a PATH statement in crontab. I can add one, but I'm not sure exactly what to add. I also notice that Joe Snijder's post says the syntax should have the word "python" after "root". Does that make a difference? Please help! Thanks, Chrys -- Chrys Thorsen Director of Technology and Training

ID of graph changes and "jumps" between storage on server
by Henrik Cednert (Filmlance) 06 Jul '16

06 Jul '16

Hello I have an issue that bugs the heck out of me. Not sure exactly what's going on but in short: First of all, when I write ID I mean the ID in the url when looking at the graph for a storage attached to a server. Like "....//graphs/to=1467822524/id=219/type=storage_usage/from=1467736124/" where the ID is 219. The storage I monitor on this OSX server is connected via iSCSI, NFS, SNFS and Avid ISIS. What happens is that when rebooting or if a storage is disconnected and reconnected the above mentioned ID changes. Not alway but very often and it gives some odd subsequent errors like alert checkers being triggered for the wrong storage. Which I don't know how it's even possible since I assume they're not based on ID in the background? But on these two screenshots an alert was triggered for a storage not in the alert checker. https://www.dropbox.com/s/9ttr7b86hv28pnp/alertChecker01.png https://www.dropbox.com/s/th7rqel88pntpvl/alertChecker02.png It also messes with the minigraphs on the front page since they're hardcoded to an ID. An ID that can have gone missing or changed... It also seems messes with the graphs since in some situations looks like it can get stuck in a mode where wrong storage are monitored and graphed into another storages graph. Real odd and not sure that's really whats going on or if it's snmpd on the server that reports wrong. But it's timed with reboot and or the other isses above. https://www.dropbox.com/s/rdrhetew8nod09o/graphID01.png Have any one had similar issues?

How to give permissions to view a device
by Tobias Vlasblom 05 Jul '16

05 Jul '16

Hello, I want to give access to a specific device to a specific observium user. This user should not see the other devices that are being monitored by observium. I have created the new user as a normal user (level 1). As expected, when I log into observium this user has access to nothing. My question: where do I configure what devices that this user should have access to? Or where in the device configuration do I configure what users may access the device? I apologize if the answer to this question is obvious and I missed it while googling. Thanks in advance, Tobias

Alert check on custom IOD / Customers and L2TP
by Grégory TRAN 05 Jul '16

05 Jul '16

Hello, Observium is a great tool and I'm still getting my hands on it. I've encountered the following issues and hope somebody can help me : 1) I'm trying to do an alert check on custom IOD but haven't found how to specify this in the check conditions. Is there's any way to do this ? 2) I activate the Customers and L2TP in the config.php file and I'm trying to make it work. Do you have any more informations about how to configure my equipments ? I manage to configure Transit by specifying "transit" on the port and it works great. A colleague of mine told me that there used to be a wiki page about this before but it seems it's not online anymore. Thank you for taking the time to help me. -- Greg
