Syslog timestamps
by Jason Vanlandingham 09 Apr '16

09 Apr '16

When I look at a device's page, the syslog entries shown below are odd... Things that just happened will say "5h 20s". Hovering the mouse pointer over them shows the correct time on the entry. The Observium server and client I'm on both have the correct time. Are those time marks done using GMT? (I'm on Central DST, so that would make sense.) Can that be changed?

snmp.conf change for r7728 and up on Debian/Ubuntu
by Tom Laermans 07 Apr '16

07 Apr '16

Hi all, Due to a MIB move, if you svn up to the latest release, you might encounter silly output from the SNMP library in PHP. This is the case if you have the php5-snmp module installed, and have added our mib directory to /etc/snmp/snmp.conf. To fix this, replace: mibdirs /opt/observium/mibs by mibdirs /opt/observium/mibs:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp I've updated the install docs to reflect this. Tom

Re: [Observium] Question Regarding CISCO and TX Discards

Hy Guys, thanks to all your feedback. I thought there is some "special black magic command" the guy from the ISP does not know (and me either) - "show int..." is of course known to me and should be known to everybody working on an ISP - but reality looks different. ;-) @Adam: Thanks for the Reference, to sort out the kind of error, this really helps me out.

Question Regarding CISCO and TX Discards
by Richard Müller 06 Apr '16

06 Apr '16

Hy Observium Community I have a router, which is only accessible via SNMP from my company, and it shows up some TX-Discards Just look on this picture: [cid:image001.png@01D1903E.84B547A0] Unfortunately the company who is administering the Router tells me that they do not see any error. I really do not have a clue which kind of Tx Discards these are and how they can be shown in CLI. Does anybody have a clue which “show” Command I have to tell the guy from the ISP that he is seeing these kinds of errors, also. It is a CISCO2911/K9 and it is a Gigabit Ethernet Interface. Thanks in advance.

Monitoring job status
by Mark Creamer 06 Apr '16

06 Apr '16

Hi, is there a way within Observium to monitor a file system to check that a new file appears at a given time, or alternatively to monitor a log for an entry to appear? The idea is, there are some scheduled tasks running on a Linux server. We can have each task do something on completion, like write a file somewhere, write to a log, post to a database, etc. We want to see if Observium can watch for something like that and alert if it doesn't occur. Method is completely undecided at this point so any ideas are much appreciated. Thanks, -- Mark

Cisco WS-C3850-48P
by Christopher N Callison 05 Apr '16

05 Apr '16

I have a pair of Cisco 3850 switches (stacked) that I'm using as a core for our relatively small office. I have added them to my Observium system and the normal Cisco L2 & L3 interfaces have been detected and are now in monitoring but the wireless features of the devices are not showing up. I would like to graph the number of active users for each WLAN. I see from Cisco's site (ftp://ftp.cisco.com/pub/mibs/supportlists/cat3850/cat3850-supportlist.html) , that there are a few wireless-oriented MIBs that are supported, but I don't see them in the list of MIBs on my Observium server. AIRESPACE-WIRELESS-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-IDS-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-AP-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-CCX-RM-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-CLIENT-ROAMING-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-DOT11-CCX-CLIENT-DIAG-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-DOT11-CCX-CLIENT-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-DOT11-CLIENT-CCX-REPORTS-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-DOT11-CLIENT-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-DOT11-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-DOWNLOAD-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-LINKTEST-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-MFP-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-MOBILITY-EXT-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-QOS-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-REAP-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-ROGUE-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-RRM-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-SI-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-TSM-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-WLAN-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-WLAN-SECURITY-MIB Is there a procedure for configuring the devices to start using the new MIBs once they have been copied to the appropriate directory or do I need to play around with a SNMP walker to find them myself?

SNMP Trap Import
by Kevin Wormington 04 Apr '16

04 Apr '16

Hi, I’m new to Observium (paid version) and am working toward replacing Zabbix completely with it. I see that there is some old/unsupported support for importing LinkUp/LinkDown traps from snmptt in snmptrap.php. I’m going to be testing it out in the next few days and making any required fixes to get it going with current versions. I have also though about implementing some type of mechanism to log/alert on various traps other than LinkUp/LinkDown such as ColdStart, etc. I am curious if there is any interest in that from other users and any input on how people would like to see it implemented and if anyone else is currently using it. Thanks, Kevin

Missing TenGigabit interfaces on Cisco WC-C4900M
by Per Jorgensen 03 Apr '16

03 Apr '16

Hi all First of all thank to the team of developer for making this program, and making it better and better everyday, love the look and ease of use. But I have run into a problem with a Tengigabit ethernet device I newly added into my Observium v. 0.12.8.3360. it seems that every thing get detected alright, except all the TenGigabitEthernet, interfaces dont show up anywhere in Observium, all other interfaces on that device gets detectet allright, and I can see the interfaces in the ports tab on the device, but not the TenGengigabit interfaces. btw: the device is a Cisco WS-C4900M Is that because Cisco WS-C4900M is not a supported device , or should I do some config changes to get TenGigabitEthernet to work ? if the WC-C4900M is not supported, how can I then contribute with information on the device , and help to then this device supported ? Best Regards Per Jorgensen
