Feature request

Just wondering how hard it would be to implement the following features, please le tme know if these already exist and I've just missed them! 1) Close window button on the hover popups. I think the pop ups are great but I find sometimes they don't disappear, a small X button on the top RH corner would be fantastic! 2) Adding AND and NOT to the Device/Entity filters It would be fantastic to have a little more flexibility in the filters used for Alerts and Groups etc. Would it be easy enough to be able to use AND and NOT statements? Thanks in advanced. SHANE lE <mailto:shanson@istar.net.nz> shanson(a)istar.net.nz lW <https://istar.net.nz/> istar.net.nz lA PO Box 911507, Victoria St West, Auckland lM +64 21 623 903

Recent update beaks Rancid for Cisco ASAs
by David Wilkinson 08 Jan '16

08 Jan '16

Hi, We have recently updated our version and the generate rancid script is now using the wrong type for the Cisco ASA devices. The type used for the Cisco ASA should be "cisco", it has recently changed so it sets the type to be "asa" This causes rancid to fail with an unknown type. Can this be corrected? We are using rancid 3.1. Observium: 0.16.1.7396 (rolling) Regards David

SFP sensor alerts
by Martin 07 Jan '16

07 Jan '16

Hi All, What is the best way to suppress alerts for Transceiver TX Power generated when a port is admin-down? cisco-entity-sensor mib has a default minimum value of 1mA, which is a perfectly valid minimum value under normal "up/up" conditions, but if the port is admin-shut it will switch off tx power, which is ok for admin-shut. Same situation for RX-power. Is there a way to take the admin status of the port in account for this kind of sensor readings? (ASR9k, IOS-XR) Thanks, Martin

Port Errors Showing for Alert-Disabled ports
by Robert Williams 07 Jan '16

07 Jan '16

Hi, Not sure when it started, but we now seem to get “Port Error” alerts on the main page for ports which are set to have their Alerts disabled, for example: [cid:image001.jpg@01D1494E.A318C000] On the device in question, they are indeed ‘No’ under the Alerts toggle: [cid:image002.jpg@01D1494E.A318C000] There are a large number of ports like this on our network with IP PDUs and similar, all of which have 10M/Half links and exist in a state of near-constant input errors as a result. This is of no concern at all and should be ignored (hence the toggle). Any suggestions? Is the Alerts toggle broken (for this feature on the main page) or is there another way to shush these, it’s kind of making the main page list a bit defunct ☺ Cheers all!

UNIX agent Postgres versions
by Attila Nagy 06 Jan '16

06 Jan '16

Hi everyone! I was in the process of configuring the UNIX agent and I found (as written in the documentation too) that the script only supports Postgres version 9. But after experimenting a little bit I realized that the script works perfectly with the 8.4 version. I was able to test with an 8.3 which was working as well. So maybe the script should be changed to enable any 8.X version. Anyway I created a patch and attached it. If some of you find it helpful then maybe post the version which was working, so we can update the version string. Regards, Tylla

Problem adding devices after upgrading to 0.16.1.7393
by Roland Schwingel 05 Jan '16

Hi... Yesterday I upgraded my Observium to Version 0.16.1.7393 via svn. The "svn up" did follow an immediate "./discovery.php -u" and a flush of the browser cache. But when I try to add a device I get a somewhat incomplete screen. See attached screenshot. Is this a bug or did I do something wrong? Thanks for your help, Roland

Hi Adam... Thanks for your reply... I tried deleting the html folder plus svn up but it did not help... I am using FF43 and Chrome 47. I can reproduce it with both browsers... But I found a way now on getting the panel back! I reduced the browser window width to at least the half of my screen (I do have 1980x1200 resolution). Then bling it popus up. As soon as I make it wider than 50% it goes away. Reproduced it with FF and Chrome on windows. Looks indeed like a CSS issue.

VMware ESXI 6 - False Errors
by Daniel Bray 04 Jan '16

04 Jan '16

We have recently upgraded our test environment from VMware ESXi 5.5 to 6.0. After the upgrade, we are seeing an issue where errors are getting reported on the vmk1 - vmk5 (VMkernel) ports that are connected to distributed switches for SAN access. However, there are no errors (none reported in vSphere nor the SAN). It seems to be a SNMP issue, possibly. We have a near identical production environment that is still running VMware ESXI 5.5, and the similar ESXi hosts are not showing these errors in Observium. This is a completely separate network, with a different Observium server, however both are running similar installs, and patched to the latest Professional version. We have verified using normal snmp commands that everything seems to be working as expected. We have deleted and re-added the ESXi hosts. Issue remains, but only on the vmk ports that are connected to distributed switches. The normal vmnic (vSwitch for management VLAN) show no errors. I've checked the mailing list and Googled this issue for a bit, but not finding anything similar to our issue. Anybody else running Observium with ESXi 6.0 and notice an issue with false Error reports on vmk ports? Any suggestions on what else to try? We have compared everything in the working production environment to the broken test environment, and the only thing we can come up with is that it is an issue with ESXi 6.0 and how it is responding to the Observium SNMP requests. Any guidance or direction would be appreciated. Thanks, -DB

Frontpage questions
by Jason Lixfeld 04 Jan '16

04 Jan '16

Hi, The default frontpage with an empty array in the config.php ($config['frontpage']['order'] = array(‘’);) still shows some stuff depending on the width of the browser window. I assume a blanked out array would show nothing at all on the front page, so maybe the presence of these artifacts are a bug (see attached images)? Secondly, is it possible to have the front page only be a front page, removing the title bar as well and only showing the contents of the frontage order array? In that case, I would presume the front page would be some sort of a special URL http://$obsevium/frontpage so you don’t get locked out? My intention is to use the frontpage as a super clean NOC screen mounted on a wall. Anyone who saw an alert would login to Observium through their own workstation if they needed a deeper dive. Thanks!
