Single box scalability/sizing?
by Steve Costaras 04 Feb '16

04 Feb '16

We currently have ~500 devices/50,000 ports being monitored on a dual cpu E5-2643 v0 system. It's currently running around 80% cpu (all cores w/ hyper-threading) and on a raid-10 16 drive array (sas 2.5" 10K rpm) which averages 1k iops. Most systems are polled in < 5minutes (with about 5-10 taking longer as they're fully loaded boxes). Looking to plan for future growth, I'm trying to see if anyone is running larger installations and their performance on a single box in trying to gauge if it's worthwhile to spend the $$ to upgrade to a newer V3 cpu system, or if we've effectively reached a single-point saturation limit and have to deploy distributed. I.e. do we have anyone here running say 1500 devices or 150,000 - 200,000 ports on a single system? If so, care to share your specs? Thanks. Steve

Hi guys, I have a question regarding custom OIDs feature: current approach is to have an OID and combine its values pulled from multiple hosts into one graph. Is (or will be) opposite approach possible - to combine multiple OIDs values pulled from the same host into one graph? Thanks! Regards, Pawel

Feature or bug -- 0.16.1.7533 version - naming of connected port of known device reverts to Mac address.
by Dirk-Willem van Gulik 03 Feb '16

03 Feb '16

In below devices/port display - we get for Slot0/21 the connected “port” on “device”. - i.e. eth0 on Ypenburg. However for Slot0/24 we get ’10’ on <macaddress>. Even though that actual port is called ‘Slot0/10’ on ‘Fooburg’ and known to Observium. Not sure if this is intentional - or the side effect from some LLCP discovery process gone awry. Dw.

cdp neighbor and mac address questions
by Randy Mahurin 02 Feb '16

02 Feb '16

Hello, I've just completed a new install of Observium, version 0.16.1.7535 (27th January 2016), and have a couple of questions in hopes that someone can point me to the correct debugging process. 1) The mac address information on the port is of the port itself, rather than the connected device. We are strictly Cisco in our switching, most are 2960 variety with some 3750 and 3850 mixed in. I see in the demo software, the mac address on the port pages shows that of the client. Also, several months ago, we ran a small version of Observium (since decommissioned) and the client mac populated. 2) Auto discovery based on CDP seems really sporadic, several neighbors will be added, but some will not. SNMP settings are the same across the board and CDP discovered neighbors can be added manually without issue. Is there any chance someone has come across these before?

Some questions regarding Observium
by Jens.Altrock＠STADT-NW.DE 02 Feb '16

02 Feb '16

Hey guys, Have some questions I haven't found answers yet :-/ 1. Read about someone requesting checking and alerting of (os) services, is this already implemented or will it be? 2. Any chance to get to know about new community versions? Couldn't find something on website :-/ 3. Some of our switches have kind of leaks in their graphiocs (see pic on mail, from an ATI 8000GS/24POE). Not sure where this comes from, any ideas? Maybe any debug ideas? Haven't found any special events in Eventlog (except some SNMP down/up errors) Thanks fort he help, and sorry if questions are a bit dumb.

Observium impact on Juniper CPUs
by Raphael Maunier 02 Feb '16

02 Feb '16

Folks, Just sharing experience using Observium and Juniper EX / MX equipments. I exchanged with Adam and Juniper tac about some issues on some EX4550 having CPU at 100% with no result in solving the issue with a log of tweak in Observium / Junos . I changed the server 3 days ago, faster stronger better :) And voila , CPU dropped on all devices, with the same config.php ! The previous one was not a small server ( aka VM ) but the vm was not as strong as this one. I only had the issue with Juniper equipment not with cisco / Arista . So if you are facing the same issue ( and I exchanged with a few of you ) , you know what to do :) Raphael PS : I still have some EX4550 deleting interfaces from time to time, but I will open another thread !

Any idea of how to set this up (if possible)? Thanks, Matt.

Re: [Observium] Bogus Sensor Alerts?

Did some tweaking. When I click on the link, this is the URL which opens: /health/metric=sensors/event=alert%2Cwarning/ Showing nothing. Same for ignored: /health/metric=sensors/event=ignore/ But when I change the URL a bit like this: /health/metric=sensors/state=Down I can see the 12 alerts (which are from a Device I ignore anyway). Changed the polling as well now so they are no longer reported. But it looks like there is a problem with the URL being created on the main overview page.

Hello I installed the latest CE (0.16.1.7533) and set up some alerts with email notification. It is working great, but now i get lot of mails in every 5 minutes from the same alerts. Can i set up that get email only when the alarm caused or resolved? So just 2 mails (or get mails in X minutes (e.g. In every 1 hors) not in every 5 minutes? Thanks! Laszlo
