Cannot get info of Virtual-access CISCO
by Sébastien 65 28 Nov '21

28 Nov '21

Hello, I cannot get/graph the interfaces virtual-access (Vi2.X) of a CISCO ASR1001... Virtual-Access interfaces are in PPPoVPDN mode (ASR is an LNS). Do I have to configure a specific module to retrieve information from Virtual-Access ? Thank you !

Unable to create web links to Watchdog monitors`
by Joe Brouillette 29 Oct '21

29 Oct '21

Good afternoon, I am trying to create a web page with links to our Watchdog environment monitors and not having any luck. I am using the same syntax I used with the Observium server I had last year and all I'm getting is a pink rectangle with No Auth at the top and the Date/Time indicators at the bottom. I can copy my links and put them in the address bar of my browser and the temperature graph pops right up. I did add the $config['allow_unauth_graphs'] = 0; line to my config.php file. I've been going over my settings and I can't figure this out. What am I doing wrong? I'm running Observium Professional 21.10.11678.

Hosts showing with _gateway
by Brad Bendy 28 Oct '21

28 Oct '21

Hi, Ive been chasing this problem for hours and see what is going on, no clue why. I have a host that is in DNS and added to Observium, syslog is not being collected. Digging around more I also see a _gateway device in Observium (I have never added this). This device actually appears to be the one I am having issues with. I removed the device and readded, it polls the device once it looks then the rrds area created as _gateway and not the actual device name, so that's why the GUI is not showing anything I am guessing. In this install the gateway is the same firewall that I am trying to add that is showing up as _gateway. We have no _gateway anywhere in the config and nothing in the local hosts file or DNS. So I am a lost as to what is going on here. Has anyone seen this or have a clue what is going on?? Thanks

Dell OpenManage / Monitor
by ron＠rjr-services.com 27 Oct '21

27 Oct '21

Howdy Dev team, Was doing some digging into the /includes/mibs/dell.inc.php and found the section on $mib = 'MIB-Dell-10892'; $config['mibs'][$mib]['enable'] = 1; $config['mibs'][$mib]['identity_num'] = '.1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.1'; With a number of sub-items. As Dell have been releasing newer versions of OpenManage and Dell Command|Monitor, they have been migrating away from the 10892 mib, and are now using the 10909 mib. Just did a comparison walk on two different machines with different versions of OM agent, and have the following results: SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.674.10892.1.300.10.1.9.1 = STRING: "Precision WorkStation T3500 " SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.674.10909.1.300.10.1.9.1 = STRING: "Precision T7610" Of course the former machine doesn't have anything on 10909, and the latter has nothing on 10892. Sometime back, I pulled down MIB-Dell-10909 and dropped it into $OBSERVIUM_HOME/mibs/dell, but I haven't tried hacking on any of the php files anywhere... but it leads the question of whether it would be a "low-hanging fruit" type of change or if it would be something more substantial.

Best way to mass disable certain MIBs per device

Hi, Easy way to do this? I have a ton of firewalls that support BGP but non running BGP and from the logs looks like that times out quite a bit, would like to just disable that. Is there a safe way to just do it in database and not break anything else? Thanks

Mysql binary log files full hd
by Jay Hanke 12 Oct '21

12 Oct '21

We've got a server running subscription observium and inadvertently had our mysql binary logging settings not optimized and filled the drive. Mysql won't start to run the recovery process due to the full drive. Server is only running observium. Is it safe to manually delete some of the old binlog files to get mysql to start and then run the cleanup in mysql or would I lose observium info? Thanks! Jay
