Monitoring a Geist Smart PDU....
by cwbshaw . 11 Jan '15

11 Jan '15

Hi.... I have been using Observium for a while now and really like it.... Recently I added a Geist smart PDU to monitor it.....it does seem to recognise it, but all it seems to monitor is various network stats. I had been hoping it might automatically begin monitoring voltage, current, watts etc. for both the PDU as a whole and even if possible its individual outlets. It does recognise it as a Geist PDU and the inventory for the unit does correctly show it as having 24 controlled power outlets. However, there is no 'Health' tab and it doesn't seem to graph or monitor any of the electrical stats for the PDU or its outlets. I was just wondering if maybe I have done something wrong, or it it that currently the Geist PDU is not fully supported and that monitoring a Geist PDU this way is a work in progress? If it is still a work in progress, I'd be willing to have a go at getting (or helping to get) Observium to support monitoring the PDU fully, but I'm a bit lost as to where to begin. I know a reasonable amount about PHP and SNMP, but am no expert. Thanx in advance for any help. Chris Bradshaw.

Re: [Observium] observium Digest, Vol 54, Issue 37
by Nate Mellendorf 11 Jan '15

11 Jan '15

@ Colin Stubbs Agreed. We didn't run a full PoC either with Observium. We deployed it and watched to see if anyone found it useful or not. It wasn't long before it was running neck and neck with our production platform, which was quite unexpected for us. We (eventually) have/had no problem paying the $200 USD out of our team budget, as production software far exceeded the extremely low cost of Observium. As you noted earlier, If the demo site included all the features of the paid subscription; I think that would be enough to show free users what they're missing. (If it's configured as a full PoC as well, it should make selling the service to their team / management that much easier.) Side Note: Adam and the team work hard on this project, so the current payment plan is quite understandable and is to be expected. Even if you add on the support element for Observium, it's still far cheaper than most paid subscriptions.(Solarwinds, What's Up Gold) (It's something like $17 USD a month for full device monitoring and statistics on all configured devices. That's crazy awesome!)

Hi Observium Team, We have an Observium Subscription - well worth it. Observium: 0.15.1.6158 Rancid WebSVN: 2.3.3 I noticed this week that viewing the network config (from RANCID) not only has the current but history. We auto-update our observium weekly. I'm not sure when this was done but thanks. I'm sure many of us (subscribers) will be very pleased with this additional feature. That is so awesome. Big Thanks for that. That's it.

EU Subscriptions and new subscription management system
by Adam Armstrong 09 Jan '15

09 Jan '15

Hi Guys, To get around the additional complexity complying with the EU regulations would require we've switched to a slightly more expensive, but more helpful payment provider which is now acting as a VAT agent on our behalf, usefully sidestepping all of the EU VAT issues. They also have a much friendlier and much easier to use API, so I finally got around to properly automating the subscription system. For the future to renew subscriptions, you'll need to create an account on the subscription management system and order via the button. At the moment it autogenerates usernames and passwords, but in future I'll make those customisable. You can find it at http://www.observium.org/subs/ Thanks, adam.

geolocation problems after update

hi all! after upgrading my svn version of observium noticed that the points are gone the map going to a strange location and coordinates "manual" in the geolocation option of configuration of devices. to not upgrade one by one and clear beyond coordinate option did a direct change in sql that functioned normally, it follows: UPDATE `observium`.`devices_locations` SET `location_lat` = NULL , `location_lon` = NULL , `location_geoapi` = 'google' , `location_manual` = '0'; after 5 minutes the points again appear on the map in the right way []s! -- Guilherme de Freitas Figueiredo

Re: [Observium] Many false positives
by John Brown 02 Jan '15

02 Jan '15

I'm following back up to the list, in hopes that others will find this and it will help them. Part of figuring this out was to track server (the host observium is running on) utilization in terms of Disk IO, CPU, Network IO, swaps, etc. In general we had to upgrade our server to handle a higher compute load / cpu load. We had been running Cacti on the same hardware platform with about 3x the devices, polling every 1 minute and no issues. When running Cacti we also used the C based poller environment (spine). Observium requires more CPU. We also increased our SNMP time out value in the config file. This helped mitigate the issue, but at the end of the day, more CPU fixed the issue. Now the SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio) has reduced and alerts / data from Observium is considered reflective of the devices status. Once we stabilize and goto production, I'll post our hardware / os configuration along with other relevant data for others to reference. cheers and thanks to those that provided on-list and off-list usable feedback.
