No pages after loging in
by Roland Hill 10 Jun '18

10 Jun '18

Hi list, Simple problem statement, as per the subject, I get no pages once I log into Observium. More Background. I'm running CE 17.9 edition and have done sucessfully since it's release. I have however update my OS to Ubuntu 18.04 and PHP-7.2. In searching I saw http://jira.observium.org/browse/OBS-2537 and assume my CE issue is a PHP7.2 related one. Is there anyway I can confirm this is a PHP7.2 issue? This is just on my home network (because I can), so nothing urgent and if the fix is "wait until the next release" then I'm good with that. -- Regards, Roland PGP Key 0xDA39319B = BCF0 1214 BAE9 5A3D 46FC 21A6 360D 9398 DA39 319B

Create a shortcut to a live graph?
by Joe Brouillette 05 Jun '18

05 Jun '18

Hey all, is there a way to create a shortcut to a live graph in Observium? I've used the "Link to Graph" button but that just creates a static picture of what's going on. I'd like to create a web page with graphs for my manager but those graphs need to display live data. Thanks, Joe Brouillette IT Specialist Link Transit 509.664.7643 jobee(a)linktransit.com<mailto:jobee@linktransit.com>

Cisco ASR9k Optical Levels
by Richard Savage 05 Jun '18

05 Jun '18

Hi Its seems as though Cisco in their wisdom have changed how the power levels are reported for optical SFP’s and they now by default report in mW and not dBm on the ASR9k platform. When observium SNMP’s them its pulling the mW values now and thus its throwing the sensor values off and creating alerts. Can observium be made to change these back to dBm readings using a simple calculation and pull the thresholds as well as before? Calculation: P(dBm) = 10 ⋅ log10( P(mW) / 1mW) This is whats seen on the CLI for the exact same port: Thresholds: Alarm High Warning High Warning Low Alarm Low Temperature: +95.000 C +90.000 C -20.000 C -25.000 C Voltage: 3.800 Volt 3.700 Volt 2.900 Volt 2.800 Volt Bias: 90.000 mAmps 80.000 mAmps 3.000 mAmps 2.000 mAmps Transmit Power: 1.59000 mW (2.01397 dBm) 1.26000 mW (1.00371 dBm) 0.20000 mW (-6.98970 dBm) 0.16000 mW (-7.95880 dBm) Receive Power: 1.26000 mW (1.00371 dBm) 1.00000 mW (0.00000 dBm) 0.01260 mW (-18.99629 dBm) 0.01000 mW (-20.00000 dBm) Temperature: 30.434 Voltage: 3.264 Volt Tx Bias: 33.722 mAmps Tx Power: 0.53550 mW (-2.71241 dBm) Rx Power: 0.22890 mW (-6.40354 dBm) Many Thanks Richard

Alerting association changes
by Adam Armstrong 01 Jun '18

01 Jun '18

Hi Guys, I've just committed some changes to extend the new rule parsing to alerting. At the moment we're just testing it, so it doesn't do an automatic migration (and there's no editing interface yet!) If you're using alerting (and are running the current version, not stable or CE), you can go to /migrate_alerts/ on your Observium installation to see if the rules will work properly when we make the change for real. Nothing will be changed at this point, we just generate the new rules and make sure their outcome matches what's in the database. If you get any errors, send me a screenshot of the page with the queries visible so we can fix it! Oh, and make sure you do an alerting rebuild first! Thanks, adam.

Oracle E-SBC support
by Johnathon Voegeli 31 May '18

31 May '18

Hey guys, Does anyone here monitor an Oracle (AcmePacket) Session Border controller? I see it’s slightly supported, but does not support the ap-SIP function with SNMP. I am trying to get a custom OID to monitor a sip endpoint at least basic monitoring, but was curious if any one had any luck with anything more? I can manually add each OID for SIP Agent status, but it’s a manual process each time we add a customer/endpoint to each cluster and of course only provides a 1, 2, 3. I have it setup to alert on anything other than 3. Thanks in Advance! ~JV

Cisco 3750 Temperature
by Storer, Darren 29 May '18

29 May '18

Here's an odd one... Temperature is reported correctly by many models of Cisco catalyst devices but on one of the Observium nodes there are two 3750 switches with different behaviour. The 3750 with IOS 15 is okay and reports temperature but an older 3750 under IOS 12 doesn't return temperature, even though I feel sure that it did a few years ago. Observium version: 18.5.9244 (24th May 2018) Has anyone else observed this behaviour? Update: Just checked an old 2960, still on IOS 12 and found that it doesn't display temperature but a 2960 with IOS 15 is okay. Any advice gratefully received. Thanks Darren

BGP polling inside VRF
by Jan Horacek 25 May '18

25 May '18

Hi guys, I`m not sure if this question was already answered or not, but I was asked to do research how Observium could monitor BGP peers inside the VRFs to alert us if any peer flaps or is down. I can set up alert notification based on the syslog, but this module is sending emails only and doesn`t show notification on the main dashboard. Do you have any idea if would be possible support snmp-context for every BGP peers in observium? Using SNMPv3 on all routers or how to display alerts on the dashboard based on syslog policy? Thanks Jan
