Moving obvsevium to a new host
by Ryan, Spencer J. 19 Jul '14

19 Jul '14

Hi All, We are going to migrate our Observium install (paid) to a different VM, same architecture and everything. I ended up pulling down the latest version from SVN, but to move the actual data over do I need to move anything other than the RRD directory, the config file, and the MySQL database?

Housekeeping script
by Tom Laermans 18 Jul '14

18 Jul '14

Hi everyone, Yesterday I committed a housekeeping script to clean up after Observium. If you have a nice number of devices combined with a long running time of Observium, you're sure to have a gigantic database of event log, syslog and performance timing information. Some of you have resorted to periodically truncating tables - fear no more, housekeeping.php is here! You have a choice of specifying either -a for all modules or s, e, r, p and/or t for specific things. Apart from that, there are options in the configuration to set before most of these things actually do anything. What it does: -s Cleans up syslog data, based on the age of the entries. Configured by $config['housekeeping']['syslog']['age'] = 0; // Maximum age of syslog entries in seconds; 0 to disable i.e. 7*86400 for 7 days. -e Cleans up eventlog data, based on the age of the entries. Configured by $config['housekeeping']['eventlog']['age'] = 0; // Maximum age of eventlog entries in seconds; 0 to disable i.e. 30*86400 for 30 days. -r Cleans up RRD files, there are 2 options here: Cleanup of RRD files with a modification time of a certain age. Ports that are gone, sensors that are gone, erroneaously created RRD files due to bugs or hardware changes, etc. Configured by $config['housekeeping']['rrd']['age'] = 0; // Maximum age of unused rrd files in seconds before automatically purging; 0 to disable i.e. 90*86400 for 90 days. Cleanup of invalid RRD files. Requires $config['file'] to be set correctly to the path of the "file" magic utility. Runs over all .rrd files to see if they are identified as RRDTool Databases. They can sometimes get corrupted (0 bytes, half a file) when your disk/ramdrive is full. When they exist, they are not recreated even if they're invalid. Consequently RRDtool refuses to add data into them as they are not valid RRD database files. This scripts deletes any .rrd file not identified as RRDTool. Configured by $config['housekeeping']['rrd']['invalid'] = TRUE; // Delete .rrd files that are not valid RRD files (eg created with a full disk) Note: this defaults to true currently. Handle with care. -p Cleans up deleted ports. You can do this manually by using the purge button in the web interface, but one could probably safely assume if a port has not returned after 30 days it really is gone. Shorter could be useful in your environment, mine is set to 7 days. Configured by $config['housekeeping']['deleted_ports']['age'] = 0; // Maximum age of deleted ports in seconds before automatically purging; 0 to disable i.e. 30*86400 for 30 days. -t: Cleans up perf time information. Observium keeps performance times per module, per device and per run. This quickly accumulates into a giant number of rows in the database. Configured by $config['housekeeping']['timing']['age'] = 0; // Maximum age of timing (discovery and poll time) entries in seconds; 0 to disable i.e. 7*86400 for 7 days. Housekeeping logs into housekeeping.log in the log_dir. (*) I recommend putting this into cron, daily or weekly (yes, even though the age is set in seconds, I don't recommend running it every minute ;), but only after you've run it manually once. It'll take quite a while the first time to clean up large databases. The "check for invalid RRD files" is probably quite I/O heavy. i'll be documenting this on the wiki soonish. (*) log_dir was also added as a new configuration directive, it defaults to ${installdir}/logs which will be created automatically for you if possible. Tom

Issue with discovery.php -h all and certain cisco devices
by David Lagace 17 Jul '14

17 Jul '14

Hello, I've run into a problem where the discovery cron seems to error out. I noticed this in checking the polling times where it was at almost 3 days. I ran discovery.php -h all manually from the shell and noticed it would error out to prompt when scanning the same switch everytime. When I put the device causing the issue in ignore it would go through untill it hit another device that errrored it out. If I run it on the host only it also seems to error out: <SNIP> ./discovery.php -h mksc-dob-lab-sw1 Observium v0.14.7.5654 Discovery Current Revision : 5654 New Revision : 5659 mksc-dob-lab-sw1 433 ios (cisco) OLD: ios, NEW: ios --- Ports : ...........................................................

Discovery crashing UPS management card
by Steve Kersley 16 Jul '14

16 Jul '14

Good morning all, I'm a recent adopter of Observium so still finding my feet and slowly learning how best to set it up. However, I have noticed that since installing it, it was reporting that my main UPS management card was rebooting every 6 hours. The UPS is an Eaton 9SX 5000i + battery pack, with Network-MS management card, firmware HF which is the latest available for card tech level 16. Dabbling more, it seems that it's the discovery process that is causing it, specifically when it walks the xupsOutput table (.1.3.6.1.4.1.534.1.4) in the Powerware MIB, the UPS management card immediately stops responding and reboots. It actually appears to be crashing on doing a GetNext on .1.3.6.1.4.1.534.1.4.7.0, which is beyond the defined values in that table. The UPS continues to operate, but the management card stops. This also means that Observium has only managed to discover the 'input' voltage - output, bypass and current/power readings all just read as zero as the card has stopped responding when it tries to read those. The poll runs fine and gets data from the input voltage sensor. Clearly this is not an Observium issue: I can reproduce the reboot with a simple snmpwalk on the commandline, which should be a valid operation on a published MIB. I do have a ticket open with the manufacturer, although the first response was 'does it work with our management software?'. It may even be a fault on my unit, but I don't have more than one of these to test. I'm assuming there's a reason for the discovery module to need to walk the tables rather than just read the specific values - presumably bigger UPS units might have multiple metered AC inputs and outputs rather than just the one? I could disable sensor discovery, which will stop the reboots but that won't let it learn about the additional sensors that it still hasn't found. Unless I can manually insert data into the database for the poller to pick up? Alternatively, is there a way for me to override the detection of a Powerware UPS and use the generic UPS MIB rather than the XUPS MIB? Any other thoughts? Steve.

Ubuntu 12.04? Does r5229 work on Ubuntu 14.04?
by Rob Townley 15 Jul '14

15 Jul '14

Loving observium, but noticed some issues with it detecting well over 448 ports on a switch that nothing was plugged into except two patch cables but then i just happened to notice php version on Ubuntu 12.04. The Ubuntu installation directions had some conflicting information: Requires php5.4 but Ubuntu 12.04 does not includes php5.3 only. Recommend LTS, but recommend 13.04 which is not LTS. Does not mention 14.04 LTS. The existing community download is from April which provides another reason that Ubuntu 14.04 LTS will not work well since there has not been another release since then. So i am trying to decide to add a PPA for php5.4 or do i upgrade the entire OS to 14.04? Will the April 2014 (SVN# 5229 ) Observium release work just fine on 14.04.

Large number of ports on switch? Juniper VC/VCF EX/QFX

Three phase UPS, [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

Does anyone else have a three phase ups. I was wanting to know if it is using the UPS-MIB and that you've done something to get all three phases shown as graphs ? I've done a debug on the discovery and it is clear that all phases are returned by the bulkwalk statements. so far i've created ./html/images/os/emerson.png and ./includes/polling/os/emerson.inc.php and added to my config.php the following: $os = "emerson"; $config['os'][$os]['text'] = "Emerson UPS"; $config['os'][$os]['type'] = "power"; $config['os'][$os]['over'][0]['graph'] = "device_voltage"; $config['os'][$os]['over'][0]['text'] = "Voltage"; $config['os'][$os]['over'][1]['graph'] = "device_current"; $config['os'][$os]['over'][1]['text'] = "Current"; $config['os'][$os]['over'][2]['graph'] = "device_frequency"; $config['os'][$os]['over'][2]['text'] = "Frequency"; $config['os'][$os]['sysObjectID'][] = ".1.3.6.1.2.1.33"; $config['os'][$os]['mibs'][] = "UPS-MIB"; root@dc3monitor2:/opt/observium# snmpwalk dc6ups01 -v2c -c xxxxx -M /opt/observium/mibs -m UPS-MIB upsMIB UPS-MIB::upsIdentManufacturer.0 = STRING: Chloride UPS-MIB::upsIdentModel.0 = STRING: 80Net UPS-MIB::upsIdentUPSSoftwareVersion.0 = STRING: 10h01517 V4.00.100312 (5135) / 10h01531 V1.10.100326,10h01530 V UPS-MIB::upsIdentAgentSoftwareVersion.0 = STRING: 3.15.3397 UPS-MIB::upsIdentName.0 = STRING: dc6ups01 UPS-MIB::upsIdentAttachedDevices.0 = STRING: none UPS-MIB::upsBatteryStatus.0 = INTEGER: batteryNormal(2) UPS-MIB::upsSecondsOnBattery.0 = INTEGER: 0 seconds UPS-MIB::upsEstimatedMinutesRemaining.0 = INTEGER: 164 minutes UPS-MIB::upsEstimatedChargeRemaining.0 = INTEGER: 100 percent UPS-MIB::upsBatteryVoltage.0 = INTEGER: 5440 0.1 Volt DC UPS-MIB::upsBatteryCurrent.0 = INTEGER: 2 0.1 Amp DC UPS-MIB::upsBatteryTemperature.0 = INTEGER: 19 degrees Centigrade UPS-MIB::upsInputLineBads.0 = Counter32: 56 UPS-MIB::upsInputNumLines.0 = INTEGER: 3 UPS-MIB::upsInputFrequency.1 = INTEGER: 499 0.1 Hertz UPS-MIB::upsInputFrequency.2 = INTEGER: 499 0.1 Hertz UPS-MIB::upsInputFrequency.3 = INTEGER: 499 0.1 Hertz UPS-MIB::upsInputVoltage.1 = INTEGER: 245 RMS Volts UPS-MIB::upsInputVoltage.2 = INTEGER: 245 RMS Volts UPS-MIB::upsInputVoltage.3 = INTEGER: 243 RMS Volts UPS-MIB::upsInputCurrent.1 = INTEGER: 30 0.1 RMS Amp UPS-MIB::upsInputCurrent.2 = INTEGER: 30 0.1 RMS Amp UPS-MIB::upsInputCurrent.3 = INTEGER: 31 0.1 RMS Amp UPS-MIB::upsInputTruePower.1 = INTEGER: 7500 Watts UPS-MIB::upsInputTruePower.2 = INTEGER: 7500 Watts UPS-MIB::upsInputTruePower.3 = INTEGER: 7700 Watts UPS-MIB::upsOutputSource.0 = INTEGER: normal(3) UPS-MIB::upsOutputFrequency.0 = INTEGER: 499 0.1 Hertz UPS-MIB::upsOutputNumLines.0 = INTEGER: 3 UPS-MIB::upsOutputVoltage.1 = INTEGER: 241 RMS Volts UPS-MIB::upsOutputVoltage.2 = INTEGER: 239 RMS Volts UPS-MIB::upsOutputVoltage.3 = INTEGER: 239 RMS Volts UPS-MIB::upsOutputCurrent.1 = INTEGER: 384 0.1 RMS Amp UPS-MIB::upsOutputCurrent.2 = INTEGER: 288 0.1 RMS Amp UPS-MIB::upsOutputCurrent.3 = INTEGER: 328 0.1 RMS Amp UPS-MIB::upsOutputPower.1 = INTEGER: 7900 Watts UPS-MIB::upsOutputPower.2 = INTEGER: 6200 Watts UPS-MIB::upsOutputPower.3 = INTEGER: 7200 Watts UPS-MIB::upsOutputPercentLoad.1 = INTEGER: 27 percent UPS-MIB::upsOutputPercentLoad.2 = INTEGER: 20 percent UPS-MIB::upsOutputPercentLoad.3 = INTEGER: 23 percent UPS-MIB::upsAlarmsPresent.0 = Gauge32: 0 UPS-MIB::upsTestId.0 = OID: UPS-MIB::upsTestNoTestsInitiated UPS-MIB::upsTestSpinLock.0 = INTEGER: 53 UPS-MIB::upsTestResultsSummary.0 = INTEGER: 1082939236 UPS-MIB::upsTestResultsDetail.0 = STRING: UPS-MIB::upsTestStartTime.0 = Timeticks: (0) 0:00:00.00 UPS-MIB::upsTestElapsedTime.0 = Wrong Type (should be INTEGER): Timeticks: (654440200) 75 days, 17:53:22.00 UPS-MIB::upsShutdownType.0 = INTEGER: 0 UPS-MIB::upsShutdownAfterDelay.0 = INTEGER: 0 seconds UPS-MIB::upsStartupAfterDelay.0 = INTEGER: 0 seconds UPS-MIB::upsRebootWithDuration.0 = INTEGER: 0 seconds UPS-MIB::upsAutoRestart.0 = INTEGER: 0 UPS-MIB::upsConfigInputVoltage.0 = INTEGER: 240 RMS Volts UPS-MIB::upsConfigInputFreq.0 = INTEGER: 500 0.1 Hertz UPS-MIB::upsConfigOutputVoltage.0 = INTEGER: 240 RMS Volts UPS-MIB::upsConfigOutputFreq.0 = INTEGER: 500 0.1 Hertz UPS-MIB::upsConfigOutputVA.0 = INTEGER: 99900 Volt-Amps UPS-MIB::upsConfigOutputPower.0 = INTEGER: 90000 Watts UPS-MIB::upsConfigLowBattTime.0 = INTEGER: 0 minutes UPS-MIB::upsConfigAudibleStatus.0 = INTEGER: 0 UPS-MIB::upsConfigLowVoltageTransferPoint.0 = INTEGER: 168 RMS Volts UPS-MIB::upsConfigHighVoltageTransferPoint.0 = INTEGER: 274 RMS Volts thanks Peter Hine Senior Technical Support Engineer (Servers) FCoA ITS peter.hine(a)familycourt.gov.au ********************************************************************** The information contained in this e-mail (including any attachments) is for the exclusive use of the addressee.
