Re: [Observium] SNMP on AXIS IP Cameras
by kayasaman 28 Feb '18

Hi, I can't say for Axis bit definitely success with Hikvision to a point. Observium does scan poll add the camera. If needing to be remote monitored from an external network over WAN there are many different ways of doing it. One way could be to use an ipsec vpn tunnel with gre then use a routing protocol like ospf . Then you could use acls as to what gets to the monitoring system etc...

Down Ports - Device Reboots
by Art Stephens 28 Feb '18

28 Feb '18

When I first discovered and polled these particular switches (cisco and edgeswitch) the Ports that were down were not showing up on the device_status_boxes. Which is what I expected. But today the equipment at that site was power cycled when we switched over to generator backup while the electricians hooked up the new auto switch over equipment for the new permanent backup generator. Since then device_status_boxes shows all the down ports and that the devices rebooted. So they will not go away. Other software I used in the past had a mechanism to acknowledge them and they would go away. I can find no such mechanism here to clear these unused ports etc. It has almost eight hours and they are still there What am I doing wrong? -- Arthur Stephens Senior Network Administrator Ptera Inc.

Syslog Rules per Priority level
by Victor Zele 26 Feb '18

26 Feb '18

Hi, I have syslogs being imported to Observium real-time now and its very helpful and a great feature. My question is we would like to setup an Alert for all Error and Critical level events, but seems you can only do regex expressions on the syslog text message. Am I missing anything or does this require additional feature enhancements? Thanks, Victor -- *CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: * *This transmission may contain information which is Vimo, Inc.

disable SNMP device_status down as offline on frontpage
by niklaas＠0rb.it 23 Feb '18

23 Feb '18

Hello, I recently ran into a kind of inconvenient behaviour with Observium alerting devices as offline when SNMP on Proxmox nodes gets unresponsive. I already created an alert checker including the condition ‘device_status_type match ping’ which is way more reliable for me in such case. Is there a possibility to disable devices shown as offline in ‘Status Warning and Notifications’ on the frontpage when device_status is offline due to SNMP not responding? Kind Regards, N.

HAProxy stats
by Franks Andy (IT Technical Architecture Manager) 22 Feb '18

22 Feb '18

Hi all, Feel free to tell me to get stuffed, but I couldn't find an answer anywhere in google or on the mailing list so thought it worth asking.. As a (very) keen user of HAProxy, is it on the roadmap to be an application Observium can monitor? The stats are quite easily gained through something like HAProxyctl or socat interface. Keepalived would be nice too, and has snmp functionality. :) Thanks Andy

Hello Adam, I have a specific question about the authentication options. I red the documentation, but didn`t found information exactly. The issue is our company is going to integrate observium to the official MFA authentication process and need to know if observium could use SAML for the SSO authentication or if it`s big issue. We are using Observium Profesional license. thanks for the answer Jan

APC AP7920B PDU, see status of individual outlets in observium.

Hello Any chance of getting support for the individual outlets on a PDU like the APC AP7920B? This so you can see and monitor if it's on or off. I think I've asked the same for other APC PDU's (AP8981) in the past but can't find that thread so not sure what was said then. I've tried to do an snmpwalk but I think you'll scream at me once again. I'll never learn/remember this. =/ Please go easy on me and point me in the right direction if this sucks: https://pastebin.com/yQztUCwm This is how it looks in observium today: [cid:FE854A64-437B-4E82-ADB1-6EBE575C19E6@metronome.local] -- Henrik Cednert cto | ...and then some Filmlance International mobile [ + 46 (0)704 71 89 54 ] skype [ cednert ]

Location changes
by todevnull＠free.fr 20 Feb '18

20 Feb '18

Hello all, I'm currently testing the PRO version before deploying it in production in our environment. I will have arround 1500 devices, on which i only have SNMP access. This mean i can't set the location correctly on the SNMP agent BUT, thanks the this great tool, i can set it manually in order to group my devices by locations (arround 250). I'm going to integrate all the devices via a script, but i need to adjust the location for each of them. Is there is a difference by changing the location via the web gui VS changing it on the field 'location' on the 'devices_locations' mysql table ? Thanks in advance for your help. Rds, Tarik.

OpsGenie ObserviumV2 Integration
by Çağla Arıkan 19 Feb '18

19 Feb '18

Hi Adam, We talked about OpsGenie Observium Integration before. As you stated we developed a new integration that does not use generic webhook. By using the payload you sent to runscope we developed ObserviumV2. You can inform your clients that they can reach from "https://app.opsgenie.com/integration#/add/ObserviumV2 <https://app.opsgenie.com/integration#/add/ObserviumV2>" address. The integration is live now. You should fix the endpoint that you send the payload as https://api.opsgenie.com/v1/json/observiumv2 <https://api.opsgenie.com/v1/json/observiumv2>. When you fix that we will deprecate the old one. Regards, Cagla ARIKAN

Graphs not showing most recent data when refreshing
by Ian Armstrong 18 Feb '18

18 Feb '18

Hi, I have set Refresh pages to 1 minute and web pages are visibly refreshing, however, they do not show the latest data. The refresh just displays the same data between the "Data presets" value. It doesn't make sense to me: having a refresh but only showing the same data. The same problem is occuring for the Event Log display. I have checked around to see if I should be using a different value for Data Presets but they are all just for a particular time period. There is nothing for "Latest 6 hours" or some such this. In an older version of Observium it worked fine. Graphs always refresh to show the latest data. It is only now that I have installed a new version (a fresh install not an upgrade) that this problem has appeared. Many thanks for your help in advance. Version information is below. Versions: Observium CE 17.9.0 (25th September 2017) OS Linux 4.4.0-62-generic [amd64] (Ubuntu 16.04) Apache 2.4.18 (Ubuntu) PHP 7.0.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 (OPcache: ENABLED) Python 2.7.12 MySQL 5.7.17-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 (extension: mysqli 5.0.12-dev) SNMP NET-SNMP 5.7.3 RRDtool 1.5.5 Ian Ian Armstrong Principal Academic Staff Member School of Information Technology DDI: +64 4 830 3055 Email: ian.armstrong(a)weltec.ac.nz<mailto:joe.serci@weltec.ac.nz> URL: www.weltec.ac.nz<http://www.weltec.ac.nz/> WelTec Private Bag 39803, Lower Hutt 5045 Wellington, New Zealand [1504644128592_PastedImage]

Configuring email alerts not to send if top level device is down.
by Williams, Joshua L - DOC 16 Feb '18

16 Feb '18

Is there a way to configure email alerts to only send out emails about a device being down if the top level device is still up. For example we have multiple remote locations across the state, and if the router at the site goes down we don't need the other 50 emails alerts about all devices behind the router. We need some way to introduce a hierarchy to the alerting. Hope this makes sense.. Awesome product by the way. I really like it! Thanks.

Distributed Observium
by Luca Sasdelli 16 Feb '18

16 Feb '18

Hi all, just joined the ml, read latest posts but no answer found. It seems that Observium doesn't support a distributed monitoring architecture, e.g. mapping remote proxies to access entire remote networks remotely, from a central management (e.g. like Zabbix, NetXMS, OMD etc.). We work with lots of remote customers, so it would be really useful to have a complete overview of their networks. Cheers Luca
