Hi All I have problems configurering alerts, there's no alert mail shooting at me ?!

Disk I/O feature gone?

Was this feature removed in the latest community release? We used to be able to view each disk (sda/sdc/sdc) and the ops/sec and bytes/sec. I can't seem to find this anymore after the latest upgrade.

Failover interface monitoring
by Gregoire Tourres 25 Apr '14

25 Apr '14

Hello Observium team I am monitoring different kind of devices (linux / windows / cisco) through my Observium. Everything work fine except for some Windows server 2012 network interfaces : the failover interfaces. Microsoft uses some kind of interface to supply a failover service (2 servers of the same kind speaks a special black protocol to monitor themself). >From the Windows Server, interfaces are "Microsoft failover cluster virtual adapter". >From Observium, they are seen as ethernet device and as tunnel device. Observium always seens some packet loss on these interfaces (however, there are no packet loss in the network, even with huge stress). So ... it keeps alerting for packet loss. You would say "turn monitoring or alerting off on these interfaces". Well .. that what I did : But I keep getting some alert in the eventlogs : The others real interfaces on the server work fine (good monitoring, no loss, no alerting). I am only having the problem on these kind of interfaces. Why does Observium always see packet loss on these interface ? Why does Observium do not stop alerting when I tell him to ? Thanks for answer! Greg

VM and Observium
by Luis Quintana 25 Apr '14

25 Apr '14

So, is anyone experiencing any issues running on observium on a vm? I submitted an email a month or two ago about some issues we were seeing, and i decided to reinstall observium from scratch. Currently i am seeing the same issues, whereby it "appears" that connectivity drops or isnt captured randomly. it's not across one device, but all. i am wondering if maybe i didnt build the vm appropriately or we really are having a network type issue. ive looked at the network but maybe i am overlooking something. anything on the vm side that maybe i can look at? i am running ubuntu 13.04 and the latest observium code as of yesterday.

Brocade MLXe and ICX support / question
by Swen Veckes (KDDI) 25 Apr '14

25 Apr '14

Hi, we use a couple of MLXe’s and ICX’s which seem fine at the first place running observium’s subscriber edition. However, a few part seems not working correctly: + MLXE’s - Memory shown as -1 on the device main page and has no graphs „nan“ at all - Memorypool usage graphs show -nan - Observium recognizes the installed Line card CPU but report 100% CPU on another machine adder 3 month earlier it reports OK - VLAN’s are reported fine, however, on the VLAN tab only untagged vlan1 (default vlan) has port associated with it, others are empt + ICX’s - CPU reported 100% all time, but same switch installed earlier shows fine - Compared to the MLXe it does not show LAG interfaces Any hints on the the graphing which works for one device but another added later does not as well for the memory? I Don’t hink that observium suddenly broke the support for this, as it is still working for the other devices (exactly the same device). What do I need to provide to help fixing the other things such as the LAG display for the ICX or others and to get more current Brocade device support? Cheers, Swen

Adtran Devices
by Colin Anderson 24 Apr '14

24 Apr '14

Are there any plans to include better support for Adtran devices - specifically Netvanta and Total Access products? As it is, Observium only shows bandwidth graphs - no processor, memory, etc... Adtran processors can suck so we'd really like to be able to monitor them, but haven't found a product that can do it. Thanks! -Colin

Unable to add Alert

24 Apr '14

I just upgraded from the CE to Subscription. When I go to add a new alert checker, it tells me: Adding alert checker Alert creation failed. Please note that the alert name must be unique. Nothing is listed in the alert checkers list. I queried the database tables alert_* and they all seem to be empty (as expected). Anywhere else I need to poke/check? Thanks -rich

Edit Alert Checker Details
by Martin Smith 24 Apr '14

24 Apr '14

All, Quick question about editing alerts. I can't seem to find a way to edit existing "checker details". For example, entity type, name, message or delay. (see image) [cid:image001.jpg@01CF4455.D3B86620] The other two fields "checker conditions" and "associations" both have edit options. Am I missing something obvious?

Alerting in Community edition
by Christian Gerbrandt 24 Apr '14

24 Apr '14

Hi all, from the comparision page, I can see a check for the Alerting, but also in Brackets Future release. Can anyone confirm what the current status is of the Alertign within the Community edition? I was able to add a new Alert checker with /add_alert_check/, but I'm not able to see it, or have any menu entries for Alerts. Just wanted to confirm that I don't miss anything in the current version I'm using, and that it is not completely included yet. Thanks, Christian

Hello, Is there any way for Observium to generate an SNMP trap instead of an e-mail when there is an alert? Or does anyone know of some way to parse an e-mail to generate a trap using some other software? Erik

Adding MIB after a device...
by Boardman, Nick 24 Apr '14

24 Apr '14

Good afternoon, I added an Eaton ePDU (sensor), and obviously it is showing up as Generic. I meant to upload the MIB prior but forgot. Any chance that after a few pollings it will auto-associate? If not, can it be linked manually? I looked under the Sensors Properties while attempting to edit the device but it looks like a no go. Or, since the MIB is now uploaded is it easier to delete the device and then manually re-add it? Thanks in advance any help you can offer.

Re: [Observium] Adding MIB after a device...
by Adam Armstrong 23 Apr '14

23 Apr '14

Hi Nick, All a MIB does is translate a numerical index into a text identifier (with some information about what the value contains). We still need to write code to understand the MIB and collect data from it. We do support other devices by this manufacturer, so I'm not sure exactly why it doesn't work, Tom might, though. adam.

Aggregate graphs for Peering Ports
by Tim Calvin 22 Apr '14

22 Apr '14

I was curious if there was a way to group together Peering ports in a way that it shows an aggregate graph similar to how Customer ports are handled. On the customer ports page, I can see an aggregate graph of all a particular customers circuits. It seems all I have to do here is make sure they are named the same. We have a few peering circuits to one entity and it would be nice to have that same behavior. I have them named the same but on the peering page the two circuits are shown individually with no aggregate totals. Just wondering if there was some type of configurable option to enable this or not. Let me know if I need to provide anymore info. Hopefully that makes sense. Thanks, Tim Calvin Texas Lone Star Network
