Poseidon2 4002 dry contact check
by Laszlo Nemeth 23 Jan '19

23 Jan '19

Hi All, We have some new HWGroup - Poseidon 24002 devices with dry contacts (digital) connected to door sensor in our racks and some temperature sensors. Our current Observium (r9667) can see the temperature sensors but not the dry contact. There is any way to get the status of the contacts? It would be nice to do alerts if somebody open the rack cabinets. Thanks!

Alert message in event log
by Ming Wong, CLSA 22 Jan '19

22 Jan '19

Hi team, I am running Observium Professional 18.10.9472. An alert check has been created for monitoring high CPU. The Default Notifier (email) works fine, but there is no alert message in the Observium event log. In Device Property -> Alert Settings, I have the option to choose "Disable alerts -Don't send alert emails (but write to eventlog)". When enabled and threshold is reached, there is no alert message in the event log either. How can event logging for alarms be enabled ? Thanks for advice.

Disabling redundancy/stack metrics for standalone Cisco switch
by Peter Watts 18 Jan '19

18 Jan '19

Hello, I have commissioned a few new Cisco 3650 switches (WS-C3650-24TD-L) which are stacking-capable, but I have them running standalone. They're on IOS XE 16.6.5 and Observium is detecting/reporting the redundancy attributes for these switches but because they're not stacked, I'm getting an alert for 'nonRedundant'. cRFCfgRedundancyOperMode = 1 Is there a way I can force Observium to ignore the redundancy metrics for these switches? I tried disabling CISCO-RF-MIB on the device but it still persists and when I run './poller.php -h my3650switch -m status' I see the redundancy attributes coming through (assumed I shouldn't? not sure).

Hi, since the introduction of the new dashboard, the filtered display of the syslog-entries no longer works. Previously (TM) it could be configured in config.php: $config['frontpage']['syslog']['priority'] = array(0,1,2,3); Is it possible that it will work again? Cheers Helge

Any interfaces, peers, etc that re inside the LS do not appear in global, and vice-versa. Treat the LS like an entirely different router and snmp poll it, using: name of LS, name of routing instance (default if none) @ community name: LSNAME/default@public This of course requires SNMP to be configured properly within the LS, which is something like this in global: set snmp community public logical-system LSNAME routing-instance default

Cisco VRF
by Andre Geißler 12 Jan '19

12 Jan '19

Hi all, any Idea how that could be? We're using two Cisco 3850 (WS-C3850-24S-E) and VRF lite. On each discovery VRF information are deleted from observium. When doing an manual discovery of module cisco-vrf I can see the VRFs again. I can see the difference between a) /opt/observium/discovery.php -h hostname b) /opt/observium/discovery.php -h switch-vwd-sp1 -m cisco-vrf In the first case no VRFs are shown under module cisco-vrf in the second case they are. Thanks in advance. Have a nice day Andre

Rename/Relabel new dashboard graphs?
by Darrell Budic 11 Jan '19

11 Jan '19

Is it possible to rename dashboard graphs? My install kept some good names for some graphs when converting, those are fine. When I add new ones, especially combined transit/peering graphs, I wind up with names like "7 Port :: bits_seperate”. Especially with two of those, it’s not as pretty as it used to be with named mini-graphs. Thanks! -Darrell

logging failed discoverd devices
by Reisner Martin 10 Jan '19

10 Jan '19

Hi! If i run "./discovery.php -h all" at the shell observium will find new devices. Observium try to access the device with snmpV3, snmpV2 and snmpV1. If Observium can access the device it will be added to Observium and show up in the GUI. If Observium failed to access the Device it would not show up in the GUI and i don't even know, that there was a device found. Is there a way to log dicovered but failed Devices? Maybe with the failed message, Hostname and IP-Address? Or a notification in the gui like "found 3 new devices but could not access the devices. [click more for details]" would be nice. :) Thank you in advanced! Kind regards Martin

old 3rd-party script, need help
by Adam Thompson 09 Jan '19

09 Jan '19

I’m attempting to use a ~4yr-old script that uses data Observium stores in the MySQL database, but the Observium schema has changed since then. First, the script attempts to use the “links” table, which is now called “neighbors” – this is an easy fix. Secondly, it uses the “ports-state” table, which was removed last may in updates/341.sql, with the matching SVN comments of “Remove bgpPeers-state and bgpPeers_cbgp-state” which doesn’t mean much to me. Is the functionality of the “ports-state” table gone, and I should remove the corresponding functionality from this other script, or has it been refactored into something else, in which case I’ll need to refactor my script just as much? (FYI: I’m trying to use https://github.com/kedare/observium_map_generator) Thanks, -Adam Adam Thompson Consultant, Infrastructure Services [Description: sig] 100 - 135 Innovation Drive Winnipeg, MB, R3T 6A8 (204) 977-6824 or 1-800-430-6404 (MB only) athompson(a)merlin.mb.ca<mailto:athompson@merlin.mb.ca> www.merlin.mb.ca<http://www.merlin.mb.ca/>

Syslog notifications
by Simon Mousey Smith 09 Jan '19

09 Jan '19

Hi All Im not sure if this is me being thick or simply how its designed I have devices sending observium syslogs and all is good… I have setup an some syslog rules and they work fine as I can see the alerts in the syslog alerts I have then assigned the syslog rules to the contacts, but strangely enough im only getting the syslog alerts every 5 minutes when the poller is run Is this designed this way or have I mis configured something somewhere ? Its also annoying because I can get 4 notifications at a 5 min interval, 1 to say port down, 1 port up, 1 port down, 1 port up, etc… I would like them to be instant notifications when observium receives the syslog Regards Simon - Hestor
