Interface utilization metrics
by Kania, Piotr 20 Feb '21

20 Feb '21

Hello Everyone, I want to pull interface utilization metrics from mysql DB and make it a daily report. Got bunch devices I am interested in, each of them has got few interfaces I would like to get metrics for. Graphs are showing all the info I would like to get from DB like max, min and avg values for In and Out octets. Where in DB I can find historical data for device XXX, interface YYY, date ZZZ. So far I was able to run something like below, but that doesn't give me any option to select historical data. I must say that I was browsing through whole DB table by table and I couldn't find anything related to previous dates. My query: select dev.sysName, dev.device_id, prt.port_id, prt.ifSpeed, prt.ifInOctets, prt.ifInOctets_rate, prt.ifInOctets_perc, prt.ifOutOctets, prt.ifOutOctets_rate, prt.ifOutOctets_perc from observium.devices as dev inner join observium.ports as prt on dev.device_id = prt.device_id where dev.sysName = 'XXX' and prt.port_label = 'Eth2' Any help hips, guides are more than appreciated.

OSPF discovery & CISCO-VPC-MIB
by Marian Rychtecky 18 Feb '21

18 Feb '21

Hi Adam and all Observium enthusiasts, I have two questions. First - is there any trick to find out why OSPF discovery is working on one router and not the other? I have the global setting enabled, and the OSPF module is enabled too, but only 1 router is being discovered as OSPF enabled. Am I missing something? Second - any plans integrating CISCO-VPC-MIB for vPC pairs of Cisco Nexus switches? Thank you very much for any response, Marian -- Marian Rychtecký mr(a)nix.cz Phone +420 724 397 441 NIX.CZ z.s.p.o.

best practices regarding interface switching and historical data
by Arne Van Theemsche 10 Feb '21

10 Feb '21

Hi, I was wondering how you guys tackle the problem of changing the port of (e.g. your transit uplink) to another physical port & historical data. Since rrd's are stored under "port-<snmpid>" format, this event causes you by default to loose your historical data. Or even worse, you have to change your routing engine with a more recent version, and after replacing it seems all your snmp id's are changed. this is certainly of importance for our interfaces which have a label that automatically creates aggregates graphs. How I do this until now is copying the rrd file to the new location, but this seems so... dirty kind regards Arene

I checked information from billing module for december for the customer (95/5 374Mbit). Also i check 95/5 of the port directly i get a value of 204Mbit, 95/5 How is this difference possible? Any other persons here with same problems? Best regards, Volker

Device & bad_if_regexp
by Arrigo 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

Hi All. Is there a way to associate a device in /bad_if_regexp /parameter in /config.php /file? I mean: I want to exclude "GigabitEthernet0/3/4.*" subinterfaces on a specific device, but the same interface is also on other devices. My actual config.php setup is: $config['bad_if_regexp'][] = "/GigabitEthernet0\/3\/4\.[123]+/"; $config['bad_if_regexp'][] = "/GigabitEthernet0\/3\/4\.[456789][0-9]{0,2}$/"; Thanks, Arrigo.

Arista switches per-VLAN traffic stats?
by Adam Thompson 15 Jan '21

15 Jan '21

I observe (pun not intended) that on our Arista switches, unlike the Cisco NX9ks we run, Observium isn’t able to collect per-VLAN traffic stats. This is kind of a problem for us… Arista’s willing to help diagnose, but wants to know what MIB trees are being polled to gather this info. Can anyone tell me what MIBs / OID trees Observium is looking for?

local db vs remote

Hello, I see that Observium supports remote database, recently when i was thinking how to autobackup database, i came accross to the idea that i could use remote db functionality to send db data to some centralized location. Has anybode tried to use remote db for Observium ? Thanks

Question on Observium GUI
by Martin 23 Dec '20

23 Dec '20

Hello Observium experts, Is there a way to 'acknowledge' an issue which produces a status box (old style) to make this status box to disappear from my dashboard? For example, I have a number of BGP sessions on hot-standby devices which are 'normally down' until the primary device dies. I do not need/want to see the down state of these BGP sessions. Obviously other BGP issues from these or other devices should still be reported. Best regards, Martin

Updating observium system via yum update
by Edvinas Kairys 22 Dec '20

22 Dec '20

Hello, it's been a while I was upgrading the Observium dependencies. Currently we're suing OLD Centos version: CentOS Linux release 7.3.1611 (Core) [image: image.png] What do you think, is it safe to update system via yum update? It would upgrade Centos 7.3 to 7.x and should upgrade Python, Maria DB (from 5.5.56 to 5.5.68) ant other Observium dependencies. After this base update, i would try to manually update MariaDB to 10.x and Python, if yum update will be insufficient. My concern is to not corrupt the system. Could you give some recommendations or i'm too careful and everything should be fine with yum update. ? Thank you:)

Smokeping graphs post migration
by Joey Stanford 19 Dec '20

19 Dec '20

Howdy, I need some help pointing me in the right direction for troubleshooting. I migrated Observium from Ubuntu to Debian and life is good except for smokeping. I have no graphs but… * smokeping is installed * smokeping and observium’s config.php are using the same configuration as the old server * going to [host]cgi-bin/smokeping.cgi shows me all the graphs and they are up to date * going to the tech support page shows me that observium finds the graphs e.g. - Found file ending in ".rrd": router_thorodin_rmham.rrd - Determined to be a local file, for target router_thorodin_rmham - After replacing configured split_char _ by . target is router.thorodin.rmham so at this point I know smokeping is working, the graphs have the right perms to displayed (currently smokeping:observium), and observium can see the rrd file. Unfortunately going to the page I get the dreaded “Error drawing graph”. At the bottom of the smokeping section in tech support I see two items. One is an error for no outgoing latency graph. Any ideas on what else I could look at? RRD for incoming latency found. RRD for outgoing latency not found.

Juniper polling performance tip
by Markus Klock 19 Dec '20

19 Dec '20

Hey guys! Just wanted to share a little tip on how to increase Observium polling performance on juniper boxes. This might be old news for some but I just found it. You can create a filter on junos-device that filters out certain interfaces from SNMP view. https://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos/topics/task/configuration… I can recommend using: set snmp filter-interfaces all-internal-interfaces set snmp filter-interfaces interfaces "^sxe-.*" This will filter out all useless internal interfaces from polling and discovery by Observium. Especially when you have large juniper switch stacks the total number of internal interfaces are a lot which slows down polling. Filtering them out actually makes a big difference. If you got a lot of juniper gear, try it out and please share the speedup in pollingtime! /Markus
