Missing customers
by Eric W. Bates 26 Nov '18

26 Nov '18

I've labeled a number of our ports as "Cust: somebody", but not all appear on the Port --> Customers page. All the "Cust" labeled ports are on a pair of Junipers and most of them work, but a few are skipped (4 out of 11 are skipped). With debug enabled on the poller, I can see the 'ifalias' containing the Cust string: ifAlias.519 = Cust: WHRC I can also see various other OID's for interface ID 519: ifDescr.519 = ge-1/0/3 ifType.519 = ethernetCsmacd ifOperStatus.519 = up ifName.519 = ge-1/0/3 etc.. Running version 18.10.9472 (stable) thanks for your time. -- Clark 159a, MS 46 508/289-3112

Change Custom Locations for All Entities
by Josh Williams 26 Nov '18

26 Nov '18

Hello Everyone, I need to change the custom location string of every device. Does anyone know of an easier way of doing this, other than through the web GUI? I tried changing to location column under the device_locations table but that doesn't work. My assumption is that I would just make changes somewhere in the Observium database but I can't seem to find where the custom location data is stored. Any Ideas?

Searching Issue using Normal user account
by Andres 26 Nov '18

26 Nov '18

Hi Guys, After updated to the last version, I have a issue when I do a port seach using a Normal Account. In older versions i could seach for an interface port description but not now. I realize that it is only possible if I add Ports individually, but not if I only add devices. Any Suggestions? [image: image.png]

A general questions on apps vs sniped extend ?
by Jonas Karlsson 22 Nov '18

22 Nov '18

Hi, I am new to observium and I am trying to learn the "system". Last week I developed a "app" that shows some status. The client side was super simple but it was somewhat cumbersome on the serverside (find all files to update and definitions etc). This week I tried to use snmpd extend to display the same information. This was super simple both on the client and on the server side (adda custom oid) and it works with alerts! My question is therefore in what circumstances are the "apps" useful? At least for my simple example I did not find any benefits of apps over using snmpd extend and a custom OID. Specially as configuring an app is more cumbersome (on the server side). -- Jonas Karlsson Senior Research Engineer Karlstad University SE-651 88 Karlstad, Sweden 📞 +46 54 700 15 64 📞 +46 70 672 06 20 💬 karlsson.karl.jonas 🗝 0x88765911B284F3A6

Hi guys, I don`t know what`s happened but observium stopped shows flags like CBQOS and if I search for it I don`t see any port marked as CBQOS. nor IPv4, etc... If I`ll do discovery or poller for module cisco-cbqos I`m receiving data from device, just webinterface doesn`t show them. Do you know where could be an issue and how to fix? Thanks Jan

db error
by Tim Schmidt 20 Nov '18

20 Nov '18

For some reason, I've started receiving "DB Error 2002: No such file or directory" on my Observium installation. Weird thing was that it was literally right in the middle of using the web interface when the error started popping. I've restarted the VM and checked disk space and all looks good. root@tcgobs /opt/observium# ./discovery.php -h none MIB search path: /opt/observium/mibs Cannot find module (LM-SENSORS-MIB): At line 0 in (none) DB Error 2002: No such file or directory Ran the above command line discovery and got this. Not sure what's going on. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Tim
