HP RAID and Exchange 2010
by Todd Hank 14 Jul '17

14 Jul '17

I have been running the Pro version for 24 hours now. Really like what I see. Couple things I am looking to be able to monitor. I have one Supermicro server with windows 2008r2 and it is reporting in the individual raid drive status. This is great so I added another server HP dl380 running windows 2008r2 and I don’t see the raid drive statuses. How can I add theses? On the same HP DL380 we are running Exchange 2010. I was hoping I could get some monitoring of Exchange as well. I would appreciate any help.

Nested alert device matching?
by Ron Marosko 13 Jul '17

13 Jul '17

Howdy Guys, I'm trying to figure out how I can build a "nested" for lack of better description device matching script. For example, "type equals network AND hostname match *domain1.com*". Or, "type equals network AND hostname notmatch *domain2.com*". I can't just use a "hostname match *domain1.com*" because I also have devices in other groups with the same hostname match, but don't want to alert-check on those other groups. I'm sure there's a way to do this, I'm just not figuring it out, and apparently my search-fu is weak. Thanks, Ron -- Ron Marosko, Jr. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

how to create custom sensor threshold for some devices?
by Thomas Stather 13 Jul '17

13 Jul '17

Hi I am running Observium Professional an im havving an issue with some sensors in our environment I have a sensor that is always generating an alert: Index: hh3cEntityExtTemperature.112 Class: temperature min: 0 degrees max: 0 degrees current: 40 degrees I have many of them on one device i.e.: hh3cEntityExtTemperature.112 hh3cEntityExtTemperature.122 hh3cEntityExtTemperature.262 hh3cEntityExtTemperature.267 Additionally, all switches of this kind are producing the alerts since they all have the indexes and the incorrect threshold. How can i set a custom threshold that is valid for all of these switches and Indexes (the indexes are equal on all of the switches)?

Alert Checkers and Mail Settings
by Kaustubh Parthasarthy, CLSA 03 Jul '17

03 Jul '17

Hello Experts, Quick one, I have Port Down Alerts on my Alerts section. I have not disabled the polling and alerts for those ports on the respective devices. But inspite of it, I still see those alerts in my alerts section. Does it clear or something just because we have disabled the polling for those ports which are down. ??? Also, I have put my mail ID as contact and enabled the mail alerts. For example, I have 50 alerts in my alerts section: [cid:image001.png@01D2F3D8.B1EB9EA0] So I get an alert flood in my mail box for those 50 alerts all once. I have my refresh interval of 5 mins, so after 5 mins I get the flood of 50 mail alerts again ? Why there is a recurring of the mail alerts ? PS: I have disabled the: RECOVERY in the alert checks still getting flood of alerts and it keeps repeating Regards Kaustubh From: observium [mailto:observium-bounces@observium.org] On Behalf Of Adam Armstrong Sent: Friday, June 30, 2017 3:54 PM To: Observium Cc: observium Subject: Re: [Observium] Alert Checkers No. Disabling polling disables, well, polling.

Thank you for the Response Adam, Was also wondering, I have added some alert checks for Network related testing. [cid:image001.png@01D2F19D.1634BC40] If you see, the one highlighted are for Network related alerts, but I seem to have some issue here. If you look at the above for the CPU, Memory, Storage, etc the tool is able to detect and show the numbers in “Green” and “Red” But there is nothing indicating for BGP, high temperature and other highlighted alert checkers. Am I doing something different here or my alert conditions have issues ?

getting multiple random down events Device status changed to Down (ping)
by Ron Culler 29 Jun '17

29 Jun '17

Started getting multiple events "Device status changed to Down (ping) " over the last few weeks with no major increase in number of devices. Issue started on Cento 6.9 install with PHP 5.4, MySQL 5.1 (260 devices) HW - dual - quad core xeon CPUs, 24 GB Ram, RRD, MySQL, OS - with Observium install all on separate SSD drives Observium SVN install 17.6.8672 (rolling) Upgraded PHP and MySQL to PHP70 with opcode caching enabled, MySQL 5.7.18 - no change Spun up a fresh install Centos 7.3, PHP70 with opcode caching enabled, MySQL 5.7.18 (install per docs) HW - dual - quad core xeon CPUs, 24 GB Ram, RRD, MySQL, OS - with Observium install all on separate SSD drives Observium SVN install 17.6.8672 (rolling) $config['snmp']['max-rep'] = TRUE; Currently only 139 devices added To eliminate DNS related issues I have added the devices to /etc/hosts and forced resolution to use it first. Cron has /opt/observium/observium-wrapper poller -w 5 running every 5 min. The devices are not down and if I manually poll the device with a "Device status changed to Down (ping) " notice it responds normally and comes right back up. Was wondering if anyone has seen any behavior like this with this build or before. Also is there a way to skip ping during the poller run and just do snmp, and if so is it something that I can enable globally? Thanks in advance Ron Culler

rrdtoolx

Hello, What would be the correct way to extract rrd data for a certain period of time (last 7 days for example). I'm trying to extract data for the following graph http://imgur.com/a/Gw9y2, although when I open up the data in excel, I'm not able to get anything of use. I used this command to produce an RRD export first: /opt/observium/scripts/rrdtoolx.py addrra netstats-udp.rrd /tmp/testrrd after which I used: rrdtool dump /tmp/testrrd > /tmp/rrd.xml to get the file into an xml format, and finally I imported the xml into excel. I'm trying to put together a list of time stamps and their appropriate data points, so for example: time1 : 22 errors time2: 10 errors time3: 30 errors .... Would it even be possible to extract this kind of data from the RRD files? Thanks for your help, Austin

WAN link monitoring
by Luke Johnson 27 Jun '17

27 Jun '17

Hi, I have looked for previous questions regarding this, but haven't been able to find one, so I apologise if it has been asked/answered before. We have several paths to a remote router that we monitored via it's loopback IP address. Observium does a great job at alerting us when that router is offline, but, I'm unable to find a way to be alerted when we have a single WAN link failure. During a WAN link failure we can still access the remote router via a redundant path, however, we are often not aware that the primary is offline since Observium can still reach the remote router. Apart from checking if utilisation on the link drops below a certain level, is there any other way that I can perform a check and alert on the above scenario? Thanks, Luke
