VRF page broken
by Bruce-Young Majola 19 Sep '11

19 Sep '11

Hi, I just upgraded to version 0.11.9.2499 and noticed that when you click on the VRF icon under a Routing Tab; an empty overview screen is displayed, see below. In fact it seems to be the case that when you click on amythin under the Routing Tab, you get taken to the screen below. Is anyone else having this problem?

Memory,CPU and Device Traffic broken
by Bruce-Young Majola 19 Sep '11

19 Sep '11

Hi, Clicking the Memory, CPU and Device Traffic graphs under the device overview page takes one to the Recent Eventlog Entries. Adam I also have an issue now with the Cisco 7606 router that we monitor using the version 0.11.9.2499. The memory pools display 0% even though I get the correct values upon clicking the sub-items monitored. The problem manifested itself upon upgrading to version 0.11.9.2499 and it seems to be tied down to just the 7606 for now as all the other routers display the info correctly. -- Bruce-Young Majola Senior Operations Manager Swiftnet (Pty) Limited Fax: 012 665 0205 Tel: 012 686 3178 Cell: 082 336 6093 mail: brucem(a)fastnet.co.za DISCLAIMER: The information in this message is confidential and may be legally privileged.

Port Stack not working on newer versions
by Bruce-Young Majola 15 Sep '11

15 Sep '11

Hi, I running two versions of Observium; older one being 0.11.7.2395 and the latest being 0.11.9.2453. On the latest version under device ports I cannot see the ports that the device I am viewing connects to, like I did in the older version, see below. I suspect it has something to do with port stack feature that's gone missing. New version; Old version; The port stack module is enabled on both versions.

Traffic bills page taking over a minute to display
by Mahomed Hussein 31 Aug '11

31 Aug '11

Hi We've been adding customers to the billing section and after a strange occurrence a few weeks ago (which we attributed to time changes between the VM and the ESX host), the billing page has been very slow to generate. Please could you let me know if there is anything I can do to check/fix the problem? Below is how long the most recent page display took: MySQL: Cell 63/0s Row 404/38.23s Rows 8/0.65s Column 189/56.87s Generated in 95.36 seconds. This is happening in the latest dev release of Google Chrome, Opera 11.50 and IE9 (I haven't tested firefox). I have already rebooted the server. Below is the system information. Observium 0.11.8.2404 Apache 2.2.17 (Ubuntu) PHP 5.3.5-1ubuntu7.2 MySQL 5.1.54-1ubuntu4 Any help will be sincerely appreciated.

Graphs showing no data and NaN
by Jeff Collyer 30 Aug '11

30 Aug '11

I recently installed Observium to monitor some voip switches. Previously I have had a different installation monitoring a ton of network gear, so I'm not unfamiliar with the intall process. This new installation appears to be gathering data, but all my graphs are just axis and legends and all the number are "NaN". Ubuntu 8.04 32 bit php5 5.2.4 myslq 5.0 rrdtool 1.4.3 snmp 5.4.1 Which is all the same as other the working system. Debugging : poller.php appears to be running fine and collecting data : Polled in 5.111 seconds UPDATED! MySQL: Cell[0/0s] Row[114/0.01s] Rows[17/0s] Column[0/0s] Update[116/0.57s] Insert[1/0s] Delete[0/0s] And the /device/#/ports/details/ page for my switch shows bandwidth numbers for each port, but completely blank mini graphs, and when I mouseover the mini-graph, it show graphs without any data, just axis, legend, and "NaN" for each value. Apache error logs don't show anything failing. Adding "&debug=1" to any of the graph.php pages, generates the same graphs without any data. I've checked file/path permissions, and they appear identical between boxes. Assuming user error, I've dropped the database and recreated it, along with a complete fresh install. Neither helped. I'm rather stumped, anyone have any ideas of what to look at next? Jeff

global configs
by Mark Chaney 30 Aug '11

30 Aug '11

BTW, thanks for this great app. Its better than most of the commercial options i have even found. 1) How do I disable ipv6 reporting? Its not being used at all within my infrastructure. There is actually probably a lot of stuff that could be disabled, such as cisco and wireless, etc. I dont have either of those. Are filters used for this? 2) I see the config options for syslog, but then it says its not being used. So right now nothing is done with syslog at all? Im assuming there are plans for observium to become a syslog server then? Well, at least parse logs from one. 3) I do have multiple xen servers, what exactly does enabling the Virtualization options do and where would that data be available? 4) Since i have xen nodes, any recommendations for getting resource information to actual show for the entire xen host instead of just the dom0? 5) Service monitoring at this point is imply just up/down. Right? Is there that much on how quickly alerts are sent out? Can it wait to see it it fails for a second check before reported, etc? Wanting to reduce false positives. Note, i havent really done anything with alerts with observium, just reading over the docs. BTW, im using Observium 0.11.6.2390. Thanks for your time! - Mark

collectd dns graphs ... short memory

The dns and powerdns plugins provide only the same 2 hour snapshot in all four graphs. Does anyone know why that is? Some other collectd tabs, such as cpu, do provide broader time ranges in the four graphs.
