PHP upgrade
by Mahurin, Randy 14 Feb '17

14 Feb '17

Good Morning, I'm due to upgrade PHP on my Observium install. Does anyone have any pointers/processes for upgrading PHP from 5.4.16 to either 5.6 or 7.0 on the Observium install? I'm on RHEL 7 and subscription version 17.1.8318.

Does anyone else have issues with random logouts on 17.1.8318? I will be working on or looking at something, clicking menu's, and then all of the sudden i'm at the login screen. Sometimes it happens after a few minutes of the initial login, and sometimes its hours later. PHP 5.6.30 Centos 7.3.1611 Active directory authentication. Dan.

LDAP Debug Support
by Ryan DeShone 14 Feb '17

14 Feb '17

Can anyone point me in the right direction for debugging LDAP authentication? Running the most current stable release of the Professional edition currently on CentOS 7 (in our test environment). Upgraded PHP to 7.1, as the older PHP we had installed was not working, now I cannot log in. It just loops me back to the main page. I was also getting TLS negotiation errors (with a blank error message) though I seem to have solved that particular issue for now. I can't seem to figure out how to enable debug logging though so that I can find out what's going on...

Pro edition
by William Bauer 12 Feb '17

12 Feb '17

Not sure if this is the best place to ask these questions, but I haven't had any success with direct emails to keep this off the list. Might have sent them to the wrong address. I'm interested in getting the subscription, or Pro, edition of Observium. I've been asked to see if we can get an eval so we can determine if the enhancements either improve compatibility with Brocade VDXes, and/or if the additional features we would gain are of value to us. We are also a registered nonprofit in the US if that qualifies us for free access to the subscription edition. Thanks for any help!

Selectively enable polling fdb-table
by Ulrik Ivers 10 Feb '17

10 Feb '17

Hi, We have globally disabled polling fdb-table, i.e in in config.php we have $config['poller_modules']['fdb-table'] = 0; Now we'd like to selectively ENABLE polling of the fdb-table, but only on a subset of devices. Is there a way to do this? From what I can figure out it's only possible to do it the other way around, that is enable fdb-table polling GLOBALLY and then device by device DISBALE polling. But we'd like to have polling OFF by default and then selectively enable it on a few devices. Any ideas?

network weathermap
by Johns, Daniel (GPK) 09 Feb '17

09 Feb '17

Is anyone familiar with this? http://blog.best-practice.se/2014/07/using-php-weathermap-with-observium.ht… Does it still work with the subscription version of Observium? Im having trouble making it work. I followed the steps to a T but... no luck. I even made a network map with 2 devices but I'm not sure that's even correct because the weather maps never load. It goes back to the regular index.php page Thanks for any tips -Daniel

Setting default sensor limits
by Dan Letkeman 09 Feb '17

09 Feb '17

Just wondering what the best way is to set the default sensor limits? For example, I would like to set the battery temperature sensor max to 50C for all of our UPS units instead of the current default of 91.36C which would basically mean that the ups has melted into the floor.

Customer's web portal for Observium
by Sophanith Chhom 09 Feb '17

09 Feb '17

Hi All, Is there an additional plugin for managing user and group for Observium? Or anywhere we can modify for user customer's portal purpose? Eg: For customer web accessing, we only provide normal user permission applied with limitted device or port access for that customer only and it should not display Overview, Grouping, Weathermap, Routing module.... anywhere we can disable that kind of module to accomplish? We just want a normal user see only device and port are allowed only. Please check as bellow picture Can we just disable these red box for normal user accessing? [image: Inline image 1] Thanks for your help.

AD Ldap Authentication Debug
by Dan Letkeman 08 Feb '17

08 Feb '17

Hello, I'm trying to setup AD Ldap authentication and getting nowhere. I'm running observium version 17.1.8318 and PHP 7.0.15. I have ldap enabled and I have verified that with phpinfo. When I try to login with these settings in my config.php it just goes back to the login page with no failed login message or any other notice. I have tried to use observium.domain.com/debug/ but it does the same thing. $config['auth_ldap_binddn'] = "cn=ldapproxy,cn=Users,dc=domain,dc=ca"; $config['auth_ldap_bindpw'] = "password"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['uid'] = "sAMAccountName"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['uidNumber'] = "objectSid"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['cn'] = "name"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['dn'] = "distinguishedname"; $config['auth_ldap_objectclass'] = "person"; $config['auth_ldap_version'] = 3; $config['auth_ldap_server'] = "ldap.domain.ca"; $config['auth_ldap_port'] = 389; $config['auth_ldap_starttls'] = FALSE; $config['auth_ldap_prefix'] = "CN="; $config['auth_ldap_suffix'] = ",DC=domain,DC=ca"; $config['auth_ldap_group'] = array("CN=Domain Admins,OU=Users,DC=domain,DC= ca"); $config['auth_ldap_groupbase'] = "OU=Users,DC=domain,DC=ca"; $config['auth_ldap_groupmembertype'] = "fulldn"; $config['auth_ldap_groupmemberattr'] = "member"; unset($config['auth_ldap_groups']); $config['auth_ldap_groups']['CN=Domain Admins,OU=Users,DC=domain,DC=Ca']['level'] = 10; $config['auth_ldap_groups']['CN=Domain Users,OU=Users,DC=domain,DC=Ca']['level'] = 1; Is there a log somewhere that shows whats happening? Also I am unable to start httpd on centos7 with these virtual host settings as per the installation manual: <VirtualHost *> DocumentRoot /opt/observium/html/ ServerName observium.domain.ca CustomLog /opt/observium/logs/access_log combined ErrorLog /opt/observium/logs/error_log <Directory "/opt/observium/html/"> AllowOverride All Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews Require all granted </Directory> </VirtualHost> Thee customlog and errorlog lines have to be commented out for the server to start. Can anyone verify that those log settings work on centos7? Perhaps I have some kind of rights issues with the files? Thanks, Dan.

I set up syslogging then creating the alert check looking for /FULL\ to\ DOWN/ for cisco i manually triggered the events in my network on a unused path and the syslog messages came in but i didn't get any triggers on the alert checkers.

Observium wrong graph traffic statistic
by Sophanith Chhom 07 Feb '17

07 Feb '17

Dear Team, I just install Observium and as I observed the graph traffic statistic seem not accurate compared to my Cacti graph monitoring system then I ask my Network Engineer to check which one is accurate traffic between Observium and Cacti, as the result after checking real traffic on my router device, Observium seems not accurate. Note: Graph statistic value is different is around 1GB, this is a huge number. Can anyone explain why or anyone experiences like me? [image: Inline image 1] My real Out traffic should be around 5.78GB instead Thanks so much.
