That's the problem. It's not once. It's not one time in life. It's not advanced users that only uses the system. Can you think on this scenario? Who uses the information, and who uses the system? Is it necessary to be an system administrator or a network Engineering to uses the system? Or my Help Desk team will be able to add an CPE for monitoring too? You are developing a system for big ISP and big companys, but thinking small.

I don't think it's my personal option. It's a use case that many Service Providers as us, have. You have two Scenarios that are not that simple as it looks. We have important devices. Ok. We need host names, but and for temporary devices, as an CPE. Can you imagine the work you are giving to us? Or to any ISP that cares about the customer? It's impossible that only us, as ISP serve temporary events. Don't you think? In my opinion, and it's not hard to implement, you should think in this scenarios. It won't cost nothing to have both options, IP and Host name. Every monitoring system you search, won't have this limitation. Adam. It's not my problem. It's what you said. It's a different scenario that is not implemented in the system. Can't you see how many people are complaining about this issue? Observium is a great software as I could see until now. Congratulations, But, please, think about this situation. In three days there are three people having this difficult. How many people, do you think, simply have given up thinking it's a bug on the software, just because, sometimes it add devices by IP and sometimes it cannot solve the host name? Many customers do not complain, they simply turn around and go away. Does that complain, it's because really like your work, and wants it better.

Report of traffic data
by Danny op de Dijk 09 May '16

09 May '16

Dear readers, Using Observium quite some time now. And am wondering if the following is possible, I'm asking because after a couple of days of searching for it, I can't find it anywhere. What I would like to have or maybe to be able to execute on Observium is a way so I can view what the incoming and outgoing traffic is for an given month. I am able to view it (and even see the bill options) but not to export it or see the absolute values. (for example 13,33 Gb out 21,65 Gb in) Better Example. For customer X, I want to see what his traffic was for box x from April 1 to April 30. And off course this is with Incoming and outgoing values. If there is already a way to view this data in an easy way and I've missed it. Then sorry for this pointless mail. Regards, Danny op de Dijk

Hi All, I having a problem related to Cron Job where if I started my cron job,my kayako will logout me from the system and if I stop the cron job I unable to pulled data for Observium. I had followed Observium on how to set the cron for it to pulled the data as shown inside the Observium page but still the cron will impact Kayako.Every time I started the cron job it will clash as Kayako also running php as well.

Re: [Observium] Cannot add Device by IP Address but can by hostname
by ron＠rjr-services.com 09 May '16

Actually, the hostname requirement actually finally "inspired" me to get my sh*t together and get a good DNS system running for internal devices, and now everyone else around the office is much happier, they're not having to dog around and do "manual" resolution by asking "what the heck is that IP address again?"

If you cannot get DNS records set, or implement some sort of customized DNS server setup, you will have to use /etc/hosts entries (which is basically a custom DNS server setup, just not as elegant/flexible... and its probably somewhat slower when dealing with a lot of addresses). Observium can't resolve an IP to an IP because it isn't a hostname. Host file (and DNS A/AAAA record) lookups don't work "backwards" like that. Also, a hosts file pre-filled with a generically syntaxed hostname for each IP address within any of the subnets which you wish to monitor would pretty much never have to be updated. If you ever have any new IP ranges come into play, you would simply have to append the generic entries for it to the hosts file. What else would there be to manage/maintain? It certainly wouldn't require a full-time role. If you did this, anytime you have a device on an IP without a DNS record, you could add it with the generic hostname. The only other option would be to do some pretty involved patching of your Observium install, which almost assuredly WOULD be a nightmare to maintain.

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.

Hi, Is there any plan to implement LDAP / Active Directory users permission for devices like local users? Currently I do not see any option how to assign for such user from AD just selected list of devices to see. We need to limit people to see just i.e. one divece, or group of devices. Thanks Tibor

Devices showing Down
by Josh Hopper 03 May '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. Any reason why it says that something is down? Your help is appreciated. Thanks. -- JOSHUA HOPPER NETWORK ENGINEER 1-828-558-1403 Joshua.Hopper(a)broadplex.net www.broadplex.net
