Some metrics on some devices momentarily reporting as 0 causing many ALERT/RECOVER emails
by Oliver Baker 23 Jan '17

23 Jan '17

Hi there, I have an alert set up to trigger if a storage device's used space is 80% or more. We have a few devices which are over this threshold, but they sometimes momentarily report their storage_perc as 0, triggering a RECOVER email and then an ALERT email as soon as the device starts reporting its storage_perc correctly again. I know that this isn't necessarily an issue with Observium, but is there anything I can do to ignore a value of 0? Many thanks Olly

Alert question for Cisco Nexus FEX PSU
by Laszlo Nemeth 23 Jan '17

23 Jan '17

Hello Last night one of our Cisco Nexus FEX's PS went down and i realized that we don't have alarm to check the status of the FEX's PS. I would like to write one. I found a graph about this fault PS. Normally the value 2 but after that is went to fault state the value is 4. I attached the picture. So the question is in this case what is Entity Match that i have to use? I tried this but it doesn't work: sensor_value equal 4 hostname match *sw* sensor_class equals PowerOperType The "PowerOverType" came from the attached picture RRD name (it was just a try :) Or what is the normal way to find the sensor name for the alert? Thanks BR Laszlo

Alert Checker Advice
by Mahurin, Randy 19 Jan '17

19 Jan '17

Hello, I am struggling to get a couple of alert checkers built and am hoping someone can point me in the correct direction regarding my syntax. In the first one, I'd like to alert whenever a processor rises above 45% which is working great, however, I'd like to exclude loadbalancer devices from the check. Attached is a screenshot of my alert check, when I look at alert logging, I see that loadbalancers are still being checked. I've tried "type notequals loadbalancer" as part of the test with the same results. The second alert I'm struggling with is a battery alert based on a status alert with a status of "batteryNeedsReplacing" preferably only looking at device type equals power. I've attached my attempt at that alert as well. I've been through the documentation, but still can't seem to get my syntax correct. I appreciate any advice anyone can give. Currently running 0.16.12.8292 stable.

hostname shortening bug
by Sebastian Klute 19 Jan '17

19 Jan '17

Dear Team, we have noticed since a couple of days that some switches are shorten in the name. In detail: At the overview page under the section 'Status Warnings and Notifications' we got several switches shorten in name. For example the name is 'fra4.b.j1-switch1.acc' and in the given section it is shorten to 'fra4.a' and thats it. This behaviour is not occuring at other switches. Only at about 20% of our infrastructure this strange shortening appears. Fully random, no particularly order or chronological order to notice. I cannot get an idea why this is happening. The switches are added through hostnames as usual. First I thought this is caused by the dots in the name that they are somehow noticed as a kind of DNS suffix and that the names are shorten by this. But at other switches named by the same scheme this is not the case. Do you got an Idea why this is happening or what we can do against it? Kind regards, Sebastian

UPS Input Current Detection
by Robert Williams 18 Jan '17

18 Jan '17

Hi, Got a weird issue with UPS data collection for devices that are in ‘Eco Mode’. (I’m not a fan of the mode, but some customers run them this way.) In brief, it means the UPS is running on internal bypass with the inverter synchronised but off-load. When there is a failure then it starts being a UPS again, quickly. This means that 99.9% of the time it has near-zero “Input Current” because the load is being fed from the bypass line. This seems to cause Observium to cease polling the values for the Input Currents (they are zero, or near-zero) on some of the three phases. The most annoying side effect is that they disappear and re-appear (depending if the value is zero or 0.1A) during each detection run, so the custom sensor values seem to get reset. Causing random alarms when the values drop to zero again. [cid:image001.png@01D26FDB.CB82BEB0] Interestingly, it does not seem to have this issue with the Bypass Current which (in this device) isn’t metered and therefore is always zero, but always gets found OK. There is residual current on Input Phase 2 and Input Phase 3 but rarely does it show anything on Input Phase 1 (until the UPS goes active). I hope that this all makes a small amount of sense - attached is a debug discovery and a debug poll of the sensors module for this example device. (The last run I did it found Phase 2 and Phase 3.) I have also attached an SNMP walk of the device. I’ve done this several times and I always get all the OIDs responded to, but phases 1 and 2 are often zero: root@:~# snmpwalk <blah> 1.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.1 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.2 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.3 = INTEGER: 2 root@:~# snmpwalk <blah> 1.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.1 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.2 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.3 = INTEGER: 2 root@:~# snmpwalk <blah> 1.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.1 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.2 = INTEGER: 1 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.3 = INTEGER: 2 root@:~# snmpwalk <blah> 1.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.1 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.2 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.3 = INTEGER: 1 root@:~# snmpwalk <blah> 1.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.1 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.2 = INTEGER: 0 iso.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.3.3.1.4.3 = INTEGER: 1 So – bug or UPS card fail?

non SNMP monitoring
by Wolfgang Riedel 14 Jan '17

14 Jan '17

Hi Folks, Just bought the professional edition and have spend the last days to get everything in place and working. Beside some issues with power monitoring for JANITZA power meter and APC UPS everything now looks good and I really enjoy the product. My problem is that I am not living on an island and more in a world of connected clouds where I don’t always have admin access to the device I need to monitor and in most cases there is no SNMP interface but REST or other API’s instead. In the past I used Cacti with mURLin and some basic ICMP, TCP and UDP probes (paping) which produced some MRTG graphs. I just wonder if I missed something with Observium on how to monitor non SNMP enabled devices or if there is something similar available like described here: http://olivermarshall.net/enable-ping-tests-in-librenms/ where they used nagios-plugins for LibreNMS? Thank you, Wolfgang ______________________________________________________________________________________________ Wolfgang Riedel | Principal Engineer | CCIE#13804 | VCP #42559

Modules size

Hi all, I wonder if is posible to change size of front page modules. I see in docs how to add/remove modules, but no clue about resizing them. An example: [cid:image003.png@01D26CC2.194A9860] Do you know if this is possible?

Hi Folks, just wonder if there is way to import/convert cacti templates into observium so I don’t have to start from scratch with a lot of special graphs ;-) Many thanks, Wolfgang
