Cisco Small Business series
by support nuckleo 08 Jan '14

08 Jan '14

Hello everybody I would like to share a small workaround in order to monitoring the cisco Small business series sg 200/300 in the right way I have add some mibs in the /opt/observium/includes/defaults.inc.php $config['mibs']['CISCOSB-MIB'] = 1;$config['mibs']['CISCOSB-CPU-COUNTERS-MIB'] = 1; $config['mibs']['CISCOSB-JUMBOFRAMES-MIB'] = 1; $config['mibs']['CISCOSB-vlan-MIB'] = 1; $config['mibs']['CISCOSB-vlanVoice-MIB'] = 1; $config['mibs']['CISCOSB-SMON-MIB'] = 1; Detect your sysdescr sysDescr in this way: snmpwalk -c public -v2c device sysDescr and after I made some changes mapping the sysDescr on the right os so in /opt/observium/includes/discovery/os/cisco.inc.php add else if (strstr($sysDescr, "50-Port Gigabit Smart Switch")) { $os = "ciscosb"; } else if (strstr($sysDescr, "SG200-50P 50-Port Gigabit PoE Smart Switch")) { $os = "ciscosb"; } Then if you have just discoverd, delete your cisco small business devices and rediscovery the devices again. Thats all!

I may have some Stuff to contribute
by Sascha Schaal 07 Jan '14

07 Jan '14

Hello, my Name is Sascha Schaal. I´m a Developer for a medium sized ISP in Germany and former Nato IS-Admin. I would like make some contributions to Observium, which i think is one of the best approaches to a NMS in the Unix world together with Nagios. So i have 3 Things for you to offer, which i think could be a usefull addition to Observium. 1. Implementation of WSMan I could write a Subsystem for Observium to detect Devices and OS´s via the WSMan-Protocol. I think you must have came in contact with a Subset of this Protocol (CIM/SOAP) within the VMware API. This will require HTTP-POST´s to the Devices WSMan-Listener. These will contain SOAPed chunks of XML which tell the Listener to perform Task´s. You can then iterate through Classes on the WSMan-Provider which contain Perf-Data or Inventory Data and Stati of Devices/or Entitys. I have developed an easy to use complete OOP Subsystem written in Perl which i would like to convert to PHP for Observium. There are very few dependancy´s like LibXML2 and Data:UUID which i will try to resolve to turn it into PHP, i have some Idea's already. The best thing is the common Namespaces and Classes in WSMan will make Autodiscovery quite easy with lot of verbose Information to hand over to the User. It goes totaly along with ur approach to a NMS. Already WSMan capable Devices and OS´s are for example Unix via OpenWSMan, Microsoft Windows and Baseboard Management Controllers like Dell´s iDrac or HP`s iLO. WSMan has several advantages over SNMP which made the Nagios Dev's plan it for implementing. my GIT´s on that matter: https://github.com/rage1985/WSMAN--easy https://github.com/rage1985/check_wsman-Suite Which leads me dirctly to: 2. Discovery, Inventory and Monitoring of Windows OS Metrics The WSMan ( MS calls it WinRM) is more willing to talk than the SNMP Service on Windows. With the WSMan empowered Observium Nagio´s NS++ Client which has to be installed locally and needs a sh**load of config will look like a joke in comparison. For the Windows Admin WinRM Setup should be piece of cake. And i know where to find the Interesting Data, and i am willing to share. 3. Statistical Prediction and Forecasting using RRD´s Hold-Winters Algorithm. I´ve done this several times in my current occupation. Predicting Trends of both Linear and Non-Linear Sets of Data, togehter with Abberant Behavior Detection. I am willing to develope a subsystem for Observium to Predict Trend, Behavior for all the Data gathered in a scalable manner. But therefor i suggest to provide Graphs with fixed timeranges, in a new tab or seperate presantation. I suppose the most users don´t have a clue of the math behind statical analysation of Data. Time is always an important factor in forecasting , u just can´t tell from a month of gathered data what e.g. the traffic next year will look like. So we have to help him out in interpreting his Data. This is done best with sane and easy to read Graphs. I think this kind of Feature will be more than usefull. I will also help you out understanding the math, the meaning of several values we will stumble upon during developement. And last but not least the Documentation. Here´s is some intro to the techniques and math involved (not from me but good intro): https://www.usenix.org/legacy/events/lisa00/full_papers/brutlag/brutlag_htm… Kind regards, Sascha Schaal

07 Jan '14

Hi all - question - I love the mapping feature for Cisco / CDP devices. Below is what the Map / Diagram looks like for one of the Cisco switches I have discovered...I only care about routers/switches/APs showing up there. Question is: is it possible to exclude certain CDP neighbors from showing up on the Map by default? [image: Inline image 2] -- Netravine Founder | Kenny Sallee | Kenny(a)netravine.com | 503.330.2430

Re: [Observium] Dotsize on map
by Gustav UHLANDER 03 Jan '14

03 Jan '14

Hello. I would like to reduce the dotsize on the map to 1 but the config dosent seem to be going through. We have 155 devices in Observium at the moment and things can get a bit hard to look at. Especially when you get the big dots when you have a lot of devices grouped together. I googled the issue and I found an old mail discussion where it was said that it wasn't implemented yet. Is this still the case or am I missing something else? //Best regards Gustav

Nix Agent Installation Question
by ryan 02 Jan '14

02 Jan '14

Hello All, I have a quick question about the Unix agent. I have an exim box and want to monitor the queue. This is a quick summary of what I did: I copied observium_agent_xinetd to exim server /etc/xinetd.d/observium_agent Copied obserium_agent to exim server /usr/bin/observium_agent On exim server mkdir /usr/lib/observium_agent/ mkdir /usr/lib/observium_agent/local/ Enabled unix-agent module service xinetd restart chmod +x /etc/xinetd.d/observium_agent and /usr/bin/observium_agent I was able to telnet successfully from the observium server. Output from poller.php shows the unix agent is running: # /opt/observium/poller.php -h eximbox Observium v0.13.10.4585 Poller Starting polling run: util2 10 linux (unix) Observium UNIX Agent: execution time: 209ms No include: No include:Observium No include:df No include:mounts No include:ps No include:mem No include:cpu No include:uptime No include:netif No include:lnx_if:sep(58) No include:tcp_conn_stats No include:md No include:diskstat No include:kernel No include:netctr No include:vbox_guest No include:ntp No include:cups_queues No include:postfix_mailq No include:local ... So I placed the exim-mailqueue.sh in /usr/bin/observium_agent/local/ and chmod +x and ran poller.php twice more, but I am not seeing a tab for apps after running the poller. Is this where the data will show ? Is there a step that I missed somewhere ? Any help is greatly appreciated. Happy New Years, Ryan Prihoda

Device status goes up and down (ping check) without having actual problems
by Mark Nellemann 02 Jan '14

02 Jan '14

Hi, Many of my devices goes Down/Up in Observium, while not having any actual problems. I monitor the same devices with Nagios (on the same server running Observium), so there's no connectivity problems between Observium and the monitored devices. Is this a general problem with the Ping monitoring or just something thats happens to me? And is there any way to disable ping and rely on snmp for up/down status of devices? I have attached a screenshot which shows some devices going down/up. -- Best Regards Mark Nellemann

Apache rewrite question
by Christos Panagiotakis 30 Dec '13

30 Dec '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Before anyone wants to crucify me, I saw this: "Installing Observium on RHEL/CentOS is not directly supported by the development team, so you must be competent enough to debug it yourself. We will not provide assistance on the mailing list or IRC channel with running Observium on any platform other than Debian/Ubuntu." And I respect it. But I made everything to work perfect except one thing only and I am mad. On a RHEL 6 server I installed observium to /home/observium with observium (user) as owner running fcgi and not mod_php running as root / nobody or apache. Normal user. I made the cron work, permissions ok, everything ok under the normal user. The only thing I couldn't understand is the rewrite. I was getting a "No file specified" So I dig it. I had to change it from: RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1/ to: RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1/ [L] to make it work. And it worked. I can see everything like: host/devices/ host/device/device=2/ host/device/device=2/tab=graphs/ host/device/device=2/tab=graphs/group=system/ (and so on..) everything except this evil thing: When I am trying to edit a device properties to -for example- override the system location (Override sysLocation) I am getting this url: host/device/device=2/tab=edit/%2Fdevice%2Fdevice=2%2Ftab%3Dedit%2F/touch=yes/ Not Found The requested URL /device/device=2/tab=edit//device/device=2/tab=edit//touch=yes/ was not found on this server. I repeat, everything else works great. I can add devices, poller works, I can add users / dig and surf the frontend except this.

Billing quota data collection
by Teixeira, Mike 30 Dec '13

30 Dec '13

Hello, I have some ports in my billing environment that are pushing data outbound only. The table bill_data is not collecting on the ports that are outbound only. When I look at the setup of the billing id, it has a direction of in. Is the only way to change that direction to out is by editing the database directly? What determines that direction? Thanks, Mike

HI All, Really wanting to use the billing feature. I've installed the latest opensource version (Observium CE 0.13.10.4585) Running Ubuntu 13.04 i386 under openvz. Followed the instructions for Debian based install word for word. Added a hp switch and the below config to my config.php under the MySQL details: $config['enable_billing'] = 1; # Enable Billing $config['billing']['customer_autoadd'] = 1; # Enable Auto-add bill per customer $config['billing']['circuit_autoadd'] = 1; # Enable Auto-add bill per circuit_id $config['billing']['bill_autoadd'] = 1; # Enable Auto-add bill per bill_id In the web GUI under ports I don't see the billing option like is visible on the observium demo Anyone know what is going wrong ? I also don't have the billing cron files ? root@observium:/etc/cron.d# locate poll-billing.php root@observium:/etc/cron.d# locate billing /opt/observium/html/billing-graph.php /opt/observium/html/includes/api/module.billing.inc.php /opt/observium/html/js/billing.js /opt/observium/html/pages/api/manual.billing.inc.php /opt/observium/includes/billing.php /opt/observium/upgrade-scripts/fix-billing-2758.inc.php root@observium:/etc/cron.d#

Real-time graphs not handling much about 1gbps (64-bit problem?)
by Stephen Fulton 26 Dec '13

26 Dec '13

Hi all, I'm running community edition v0.13.10.4585 and polling a few C6500's and a Cisco Nexus 7k. I have a number of 10GE interfaces and 10GE etherchannel bundles. The 5 minute graphing appears to work fine, the numbers are accurate when I compare against another monitoring system in production. However, when I run a "real time" poll against an interface or port-channel, of any duration (2 secs to 60 secs), the numbers never crack much above 1gbps, and there are often negative numbers. This suggests 64-bit counters are not being used or being interpreted correctly, but I haven't looked at the code. Has anyone else seen this? If so, did I mess something up with the install or is there something I can do? Thanks, -- Stephen
