RRD folder space problem
by Edvinas Kairys 07 Nov '19

07 Nov '19

Hello, I noticed that Observium started to use up lots of storage space. From ~200Gb it started to use ~400Gbs. Found interested thing, that one device RRD folder tooks ~200GBs instead of ~4-5Gbs. I'm always running housekeeping scripts in cron: # Run housekeeping script daily for syslog, eventlog and alert log 13 5 * * * root /opt/observium/housekeeping.php -ysel >> /dev/null 2>&1 # Run housekeeping script daily for rrds, ports, orphaned entries in the database and performance data 47 4 * * * root /opt/observium/housekeeping.php -yrptib >> /dev/null 2>&1 But seems it doesnt help, and housekeeping log doesn't show errors. Could someone advice how to clear that files in RRD folder according to housekeeping settings which are here: infra [root@observ001prvitx logs]# cat /opt/observium/includes/defaults.inc.php | grep housekeep $config['housekeeping']['syslog']['age'] = '1M'; // Maximum age of syslog entries; 0 to disable $config['housekeeping']['eventlog']['age'] = '3M'; // Maximum age of event log entries; 0 to disable $config['housekeeping']['alertlog']['age'] = '3M'; // Maximum age of alert log entries; 0 to disable $config['housekeeping']['authlog']['age'] = '6M'; // Maximum age of authlog entries; 0 to disable $config['housekeeping']['inventory']['age'] = '1M'; // Maximum age of deleted inventory entries; 0 to disable $config['housekeeping']['deleted_ports']['age'] = '1M'; // Maximum age of deleted ports before automatically purging; 0 to disable $config['housekeeping']['rrd']['age'] = '2M'; // Maximum age of unused rrd files before automatically purging; 0 to disable $config['housekeeping']['rrd']['invalid'] = TRUE; // Delete .rrd files that are not valid RRD files (eg created with a full disk) afaik M = month ?

Observium HA setup
by Mohammed Kokani 07 Nov '19

07 Nov '19

Dear Observium Experts, Am new to Observium, we have requirement to setup Observium in HA using DRDB, Pacemaker/Heartbeat & Corosync. #DRBD for block level replication, in our case this will be /opt/observium mount point. # Pacemaker/Heartbeat & Corosync main used for virtual IP switch over and auto mount of /opt/observium if primary nodes fails. VM Configurations OS : Ubuntu 18.04 64bit vCPU : 6 vRAM : 16Gb OS Disk : 40Gb DRBD disk : 350Gb ( for /opt/observium ) Is the HA setup prescribed or using single VM is enough. Basically we want to avoid single point of failure when we implement observium in production. Suggestion from experts users are welcome and thanks in advance for your valuable time. *Thanks & Regards* *Mohammed Suhail | System Engineer* *Tel : (415) 349-2100, Extn- 2139* PGP Fingerprint : 026B 6CEB CC08 152D 9372 0F51 DDFB 6758 6924 FBCC [image: cid:image016.png@01D321AA.4A00A6F0]

Hello, >From time to time, we have those messages in Observium eventlog: 2019-09-28 12:36:09 sg300-office Ip-addresses: 1 updated, 7 unchanged. 2019-09-28 12:36:09 sg300-office IP address changed: 2a01:ad42:8531:c422:2e36:f8ff:fe5e:49e2/64 -> 2a01:ad42:8531:c422:2e36:f8ff:fe5e:49e2/64 I see absolutely no difference between the two IPs... The IP itself is the one used by the switch, given automatically: Ipv6 Global Address Type 2a01:ad42:8531:c422:2e36:f8ff:fe5e:49e2/64 Autoconfig Could it be the autoconfig renew that seems to Observium to be a new IP ?

Mailer configuration
by Ray Poorman 26 Oct '19

26 Oct '19

Hello all, I have tried repeatedly configuring the mailer agent with limited success. The PHP “email” fails to send via hosts as the from address is not working, it ends up sending as root(a)observium.cstreet.local even if I set the from address. When I set it to use postfix/sendmail from localhost I can get emails to send, and the from address is correct, but then it uses an old hostname “devnew65” as the dns name, which gets it rejected. I have been able to get a couple through our local mail server but the outside gets rejected. I have tried using authentication and it just doesn’t work and is rejected before authentication even takes place due to it’s source ip / dns. Any advice? The debug doesn’t show the actual mailing process or the php command or I would just write a quick php script to test it.

Alert transports do not work any more
by Marco Spicuglia 23 Oct '19

23 Oct '19

Hey Guys, I had a fully functional Observium Enterprise installation up to last week, but no alerts are sent out any more today. The alerts log says my alert has been sent out, but this is not the case. If I check the postfix queue, the email related to that alert is stuck in the queue, as it's trying to send the message to who@where, which is obviously not correct. The contacts are still fine though, 4 in total. Our Telegram group also did not receive any message, which has nothing to do with email. I believe something broke in the transport system. Could anyone help to understand what is going on? It definitely did work before. Thanks in advance for your help. Regards, Marco

Alert checkers triggering on down/0 speed interfaces
by Ryan, Spencer 23 Oct '19

23 Oct '19

Since updating to 10134 we've seen some odd behavior out of our high interface utilization alerts. The alert itself is very simple, device matches *, entity is ifType equals ethernetCsmacd, and the test conditions are any of: ifInOctets_perc ge 80 ifOutOctets_perc ge 80 Which has worked fine forever. Now it's throwing alarms on an odd mix of devices (UBNT, Palo Alto, Arista, Kemp VLM, Infoblox) for ports that are down/down loopbacks or HA interfaces not connected. All of the ports it is alarming on show this in the data (Speed 0, and down/down): ifSpeed=>0 ifHighSpeed=>0 ifOperStatus=>down ifAdminStatus=>down Any idea what changed or why it's alarming on these now? I'm guessing its trying to do the 80% math on....0 but I'd imagine that shouldn't even run if the port is admin+operationally down. This is a mgmt interface on an arista (which is unconnected and admin down): https://pastebin.com/JsNvre40 As you can see the *_perc calcs are 0, it almost seems some kind of divide by 0 error.

Too many ports on a windows workstation
by Gianpaolo Racca 20 Oct '19

Hi everybody, I searched the docs for some hints about my problem but I didn't find anything. I'm very new to observium. I installed it in a docker container on a linux nas and I'm very happy with it. The main concern is that on a windows workstation (a nuc box) I have a LOT of interfaces listed: a lot of ethernet, a lot of tunnel interfaces. The other machines I monitor which are linux (computer or raspberry) don't show the same behaviour. Can you please point me in the right direction? Thanks and have a nice day, Gianpaolo

Failure in notification of syslog alerts of the Ob server itself
by Shekhar Basnet 17 Oct '19

17 Oct '19

Hello, Observium is setup to email syslog alerts and it is doing so without any issues of all devices. I have a requirement to email some log alerts of the Observium server to the network team. I did the usual stuff of adding syslog rule and associating with a contact address. The logs (/var/log/messages) are matched by this syslog rule. I can see those matched lines in the Ob GUI. Yet strangely, an email is never triggered. Initially I thought it could be due to the log message and so I tried matching some other log lines, but always the log messages are matched by the syslog rule but email is never triggered. The contact address gets emails of all other alerts. Is there some other settings to enable Observium to email logs of it's own? Am running rsyslog and postfix on the Ob server. [root@observium sbasnet]# rsyslogd -v rsyslogd 8.24.0-34.el7, compiled with: PLATFORM: x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu PLATFORM (lsb_release -d): FEATURE_REGEXP: Yes GSSAPI Kerberos 5 support: Yes FEATURE_DEBUG (debug build, slow code): No 32bit Atomic operations supported: Yes 64bit Atomic operations supported: Yes memory allocator: system default Runtime Instrumentation (slow code): No uuid support: Yes Number of Bits in RainerScript integers: 64 [root@observium sbasnet]# postconf mail_version mail_version = 2.10.1 *Observium CE* 19.8.10000 (22nd August 2019) *OS* Linux 3.10.0-862.11.6.el7.x86_64 [amd64] (CentOS 7) *Apache* 2.4.6 (CentOS) OpenSSL/1.0.2k-fips mod_fcgid/2.3.9 PHP/5.6.40 mod_perl/2.0.10 Perl/v5.16.3 *PHP* 5.6.40 (OPcache: ENABLED) *Python* 2.7.5 *MySQL* 5.5.60-MariaDB (extension: mysqli 5.5.60-MariaDB) *SNMP* NET-SNMP 5.7.2 *RRDtool* 1.4.8 *Fping* 3.10 (IPv4 only) Thanks for help.

Hi, a while ago you added support for the Kohler Generators. (thanks). I am noticing some issues. 1. The generator is listed as in “alarm status” all the time, no matter whats going on with the generator 2. When the generator goes under load, the observium state does not change to reflect that. I have attached 2 screen shots to illustrate as well as a txt file with the corresponding snmpwalk outputs. Also, Kohler has updated the mib, I have attached that as well, can you update the code base with this? thanks Tony

The diff for probes.inc.php is below, but it also required a small modification to the check_ldap perl script (update hard-coded module dir). The LDAP probe I used is the version in the nagios-probe-contrib package Debian package, not the compiled C version distributed via the plugins tarfile from nagios.org; I used it because the contrib/perl version allows anonymous binding for just a basic service health check and doesn't require user/pwd/base-DN.

Mass Changes Ports Config (Alerting)
by Wissen, Tobias (EDV) 15 Oct '19

Hello, is there a way to set the alerts for all ports centrally to (ignore alerts) true? Would you like to set the alerts separately for each device in a later step. [cid:image001.png@01D58365.30219360] Mit freundlichen Grüßen Tobias Wissen
