question about Disk I/O page
by Joshua Elson 19 Nov '13

19 Nov '13

Hi All, I am new to Observium and love the product so far. I am looking at the Disk I/O page and trying to figure out the legend. Could somebody please explain what the k, M and u's stand for? Is it kb, mb or thousands and millions? What about the u? Thanks in advance!

Re: [Observium] Stable vs Trunk

I am !! In a production environment we may avoid bugs and more risky problems (like an insane SNMP discoverer, or something like that). So I'll be interested in a stable branch, regularly updated :-) I think the most important things are : 1) Stability 2) "Silence" - in terms of not talking too much on the network 3) Performance 4) Without less information or functionality than the latest updates Regards, Adrien BERTRAND Administrateur Sécurité du Système d'Information Tel : 01.42.79.47.81 Interne : 5.47.81 [Description : Q_BPCE_Assurances.jpg] ************************************************************************** From: Tom Laermans <tom.laermans(a)powersource.cx<mailto:tom.laermans@powersource.cx>> To: observium(a)observium.org<mailto:observium@observium.org> Subject: Re: [Observium] Stable vs Trunk Message-ID: <528A414B.5040501(a)powersource.cx<mailto:528A414B.5040501@powersource.cx>> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Hi, > As it turns out, waiting for a bit of software to feel un-buggy enough > to call stable is a little bit like chasing a magic dragon in a > pharmaceutically-enhanced dream, a largely unattainable goal.

Stable vs Trunk
by Adam Armstrong 18 Nov '13

18 Nov '13

Hi All, When we started the new SVN setup, I had envisioned dropping trunk to stable every couple of weeks when I felt it was un-buggy enough. As it turns out, waiting for a bit of software to feel un-buggy enough to call stable is a little bit like chasing a magic dragon in a pharmaceutically-enhanced dream, a largely unattainable goal. It's a little difficult to gauge stability when we have half a dozen commits per day! Are any of you using the stable branch, and if so, how often and under what conditions would you want me to merge changes? adam.

duplicate system name
by Zoran Lukenic 18 Nov '13

Hello, my observium lab was on 0.12.10.3399. I have some problem with my graphs but it's not a problem i just did a fresh install on new server with last observium version 0.13.10.4721. The tutorial was great and my install work perfect. When i start to add my devices i had some error. Some device have the same system name and when i tri to add them, the 2nd one don't work. "Already got device with SNMP-read sysName (system.name)" I didn't get this on my lab.

billing module not loading three javascript files
by Rutger Bevaart 18 Nov '13

18 Nov '13

Hi all, In my Observium I have issues with the billing graphs where only the quick graphs are loading correctly. The browser inspector shows: Failed to load a resource : A server with the specified hostname cannot be found : http:<my hostname>js/bootstrap-loader.js Failed to load a resource : A server with the specified hostname cannot be found : http:<my hostname>js/bootstrap-tab.js Failed to load a resource : A server with the specified hostname cannot be found : http:<my hostname>js/billing.js It looks like the ‘/‘ after the hostname is missing… Tried to find where this is set and found three files in html/pages/ called: bill.php.inc bills.php.inc packages.inc.php Manually adding a ‘/‘ there does not solve the problem, and then I’m at the end of my l33t observ1um debug skills. Choosing an “transfer graph” gives a “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500” in the inspector for the graph after the other three above, but it might be totally unrelated. Quick graphs work fine. Anybody encounter this too? regards, Rutger

As this is only an issue when adding certain devices, we could make this a commandline option to addhost.php.

Alert notmatch help
by Kevin Cackler 16 Nov '13

16 Nov '13

I would like to run an alert for disk space usage on all of our machines, but want to not alert on our /backup drives (They get alerted at 90%). What do I need to put in the entity field to achieve this? I see theexample in the wiki for mempool_descr match *processor for your example memory check, but it's unclear where mempool_descr comes from. What would be the equivalent for the disk mount point?

support for Gude product
by Christian Blumer 16 Nov '13

16 Nov '13

Hi, We use Gude products (http://www.gude.info<http://www.gude.info/>) to monitor the power usage of our servers. Specially the two models below: - Expert PDU Basic 8111 (http://www.gude.info/en/power-distribution/elementary-pdu/expert-pdu-basic-…) - Expert Power Control 8211 (http://www.gude.info/en/power-distribution/switched-pdu/expert-power-contro…) Is there any plan to support graphing of power usage on such devices ? Can we contribute to develop the module to graph such devices ? If yes, how ? Thanks in advance for your help and have a good week-end. Christian Blumer

Can't get alert to trigger
by Kevin Cackler 14 Nov '13

14 Nov '13

We are just now setting up our alerts for the first time and cannot get even our most basic one to alert successfully. We added an alert checker applied to all devices and all entities. The condition is storage_perc gt 80. We then regenerated our alerts and the alert was assigned successfully to all of our devices. On the alert page that shows a summary of the alert and the devices that it belongs to, I see all of our devices listed and all of them have a status of OK even though one of them is currently sitting at 87% utilization. If I mouse over the "state" column for that entity, it confirms that it is at 87 right now. What are we doing wrong? Why isn't this alert triggering?

Alerting in the Open Source Version

Hello, I'm currently using the most recent OS version of Observium, and am curious if there is any additional documentation for setting up email alerts (other than http://observium.org/wiki/Configuration_Options#Alert_Settings ). I remember there was a kickstarter earlier this year with the end goal of being able to provide alerting for Observium - was this just going to be for the SVN/subscription version?

Non-snmp Devices
by Cory Thibault 13 Nov '13

13 Nov '13

Hello, Is it possible to add non-snmp devices? Say I need to monitor a specific website for uptime but don't have snmp level access. I looked up the services check however from what I understand it still relies on the device being added the usual way which requires snmp. Assuming I can't add non-snmp devices, could someone point me in the right direction on extending Observium to add this functionality? Ultimately, I want 4 monitors: ping, tcp protocol checks (custom ports), http(s) (simple or with response analysis) and ssh. If I can do that, then graphing the results will be trivial. I realize there are other tools that have these features but I prefer the Observium interface. Cheers, Cory
