Monitor and bill for VM's in VMWare
by Anthony Polselli 08 May '16

08 May '16

Hi all, Been using Observium for a while and love it. We just added a couple of our ESXI 5.1 servers to Observium in the hopes of being able to monitor bandwidth usage on individual VM's and bill against it. It polled the physical NIC's but not the virtual ones. We do have multiple VLAN's too if this makes a difference. Any way to do this? Thanks, [cid:image001.jpg@01D1A885.41398360] __________________________________________ Anthony Polselli, Chief Technology Officer Natural Networks, Inc. 10225 Barnes Canyon Rd.

Just complementing, I don't have those IP addresses on the /etc/hosts, not even in a DNS Server. I have added all, apparently by IP address.

Hello, I am trying to add some new devices to monitoring, but I am receiving the error Could not resolve 10.251.15.182 I have added the devices with IP 10.251.15.181, 10.251.15.183, But devices 10.251.15.182 and 10.251.15.184 presents the Resolve Error. As you can see, it's an IP address. Pinging from the console is possible, as the traceroute leads to the same path. The reverse path works. Searching I found the way to add by command line. It was possible to add the two devices, 10.251.15.182 and 10.251.15.184. Ok. But now, when I try to add other devices on the same network, the error "Could no resolve 10.251.15.xxx" persists. The server is on the same network. 10.251.15.22 Aparently it's a kind of bug with the interface, that is trying to resolve with the DNS an IP address. This other case, I am not sure, but in a moment, it aparentely to try to add a device, but not sure what message it gives, but it was related to snmp comunity, I guess, and in a second try,it presents the Can not resolve, error. This case I don't have much details. It only happened one time.

Observium - Custom OID view for Global Read ONLY users ?
by Bradley, Jim 05 May '16

05 May '16

Hi All, Is there a way to share live/active charts for custom OID’s with Global Read Only view users ? I want my User Support team to be able to see a live chart of the Cisco Any connect users I’ve got a Custom OID for; it is a single chart covering all gateway devices specifically for SSL VPN/AnyConnect type connections, it lets us see the distribution of connections across gateways. I can give them a static chart easily enough, but apparently not one that can be updated or updates itself. Any ideas ? Many thanks. [cid:FE21DD9D-C7F4-4C33-AF27-8DC09732712E] -- Jim Bradley

Email Alerts from Observium
by Murali Krishna Kanagala 05 May '16

05 May '16

Hello Everyone, I have been using Observium to monitor a variety of network devices and VMWare ESXi hosts. Observium is doing a great job in gathering all the data from these devices and it is really helpful. I am trying to setup some alerts for disk, cpu and network utilizations but not receiving any emails. Here are some more details.Version: Observium CE 0.16.1.7533 1) I have modified below lines with right email address.// set up alerts $config['alerts']['email']['default'] = "mail(a)example.com"; ## Default alert recipient$config['alerts']['email']['default_only'] = true; ## Only use default recipient$config['alerts']['email']['enable'] = true; ## Disable email alerts as we do not use observium for monitoring but only for metering$config['uptime_warning'] = "86400"; ## Time in seconds to display a "Device Rebooted" warning, defualts to 1 day. Set to 0 to disable warnings.$config['alerts']['port']['ifdown'] = false; ## Generate an alert for ports which enter the ifdown state. 2) Tried sending test mail using ./test_alert.php./test_alert.php -a "some text" 3) Logged in to Web UI, under global settings set all buttons to default under "Use DB" 4) Setup some tests and to trigger alerts and looks like it tried to send some alerts, seeing a time entry under Alerted column. 5) Checked observium log(logs/observium.log) and system logs to see if there were any attempts to send out an email. No entries were found. 6) Observium server is able to send out emails, i have tested it using mailx and sendmail commands, it uses postfix configuration. I am not able to find where the issue is. Can someone help me with this? Thank you,Murali Kanagala412 482 2244

Hi Guys, There's an authenticated remote execution issue with an old unused script, netcmd.php. You should either SVN up to have it automatically removed (we've not used it for a long time, but no one removed it!), or you can manually remove it if you're running CE. Thanks, adam.

Devices showing Down

I managed to get alerts working and its great. I did have a few questions though. Ideally, I'd like it if there were nothing in red on the dashboard (as if there are issues). [image: Inline image 1] Observium says I have a port down and 1 alert failed. However, all alerts are either OK or suppressed. Ports are either on and in use or disabled. There is nothing that shows in those lists. Any reason why it says that something is down? Your help is appreciated.

Hi We are currently running OBSERVIUM Professional Ed with 31 Cisco 7600/3560/2960 polling around 5000+ ports. The Traffic graphs are showing gaps as the poller seems to be taking a lot of time. We have tried different values for the poller wrapper threads (16, 32, 48, 64) on a 16 core/64GB RAM machine but not seen any improvement. We have also tried different values for the 'ma-rep' field for snmp bulkwalk (5, 10 etc) - had seen improvement initially after enabling with 5, but the polling times seem to have increased automatically after some time. We are currently running with 64 Poller threads and max-rep 10. Pls suggest if we are missing something. A few screen-shots are attached.

BGP modul question
by Laszlo Nemeth 02 May '16

02 May '16

Hello We use the PE 7703 version and we would like to use the BGP modul for our Cisco ASR 9001 router. On the Observium / Routing tab we see the OSPF connections but there is no BGP section. We hard-enabled the BGP in the config.php ($config['enable_bgp'] = 1;) but it doesn’t help. All of BGP related mysql tables are empty. What we did wrong? :) Thanks Laszlo

Alerts and Ports
by Josh Hopper 29 Apr '16

29 Apr '16

I managed to get alerts working and its great. I did have a few questions though. Ideally, I'd like it if there were nothing in red on the dashboard (as if there are issues). [image: Inline image 1] Observium says I have a port down and 1 alert failed. However, all alerts are either OK or suppressed. Ports are either on and in use or disabled. There is nothing that shows in those lists. [image: Inline image 2] [image: Inline image 3] Any reason why it says that something is down? Also, I have a unit that does not have 2 out of 4 PSUs and fans. Show's that they are down. [image: Inline image 4] I have suppressed the alerts. Is there a way to get it to ignore just what is currently down without ignoring the whole device? Your help is appreciated. Thanks. -- JOSHUA HOPPER NETWORK ENGINEER 1-828-558-1403 Joshua.Hopper(a)broadplex.net www.broadplex.net

Alerts for Power

How do I setup a Sensor alert to tell me if I'm 80% of my circuit or more than 10 Amps? Might have sent this before. Not sure what happened to the email. Sorry for a duplicate if there was one. -- JOSHUA HOPPER NETWORK ENGINEER 1-828-558-1403 Joshua.Hopper(a)broadplex.net www.broadplex.net
