ZFS File systems issue and incorrect storage reporting
by Hamilton, Kent 03 Aug '17

03 Aug '17

I have a system where the storage sizes are being reported incorrectly and there appears to be an issue with reading ZFS file systems being reported at all. I have 4 NAS (OmniOS) servers that are ZFS based, but none of the ZFS disk space is being reported at all. For example: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /usr/lib/libc/libc_hwcap1.so.1 118167920 2484288 115683632 3% /lib/libc.so.1 swap 8399672 336 8399336 1% /etc/svc/volatile swap 8399428 92 8399336 1% /tmp swap 8399396 60 8399336 1% /var/run rpool/export 115683728 96 115683632 1% /export rpool/export/home 115683728 96 115683632 1% /export/home nas01c 4392986368 96 4392986272 1% /nas01c nas01c/vm 5658664448 1437476772 4221187676 26% /nas01c/vm rpool 115683736 104 115683632 1% /rpool nas01c/vm-data 5031018412 809830736 4221187676 17% /nas01c/vm-data nas01c/backup_appliance 4221268004 80328 4221187676 1% /nas01c/backup_appliance Yet Observium is only showing: Mountpoint Size Used Free Usage % /etc/svc/volatile 9.29GB 336kB 9.29GB 100% 0% /lib/libc.so.1 112GB 2.37GB 110GB 98% 2% /tmp 9.29GB 92kB 9.29GB 100% 0% /var/run 9.29GB 60kB 9.29GB 100% 0% I have another system that is mixed ZFS, XFS storage and on that one, on the "Alerts" page for the system Observium is seeing the filesystems as: Mountpoint Size Used Free Usage % / 281GB 138GB 142GB 51% 49% /backup0 757GB 7.17TB -6.4TB -868% 968% /backup1 757GB 10.1TB -9.4TB -1276% 1376% /scratch 3.64TB 903GB 2.75TB 76% 24% /zfsbkp 1.64TB 128kB 1.64TB 100% 0% /zfsbkp/code 7.11TB 5.47TB 1.64TB 23% 77% The actual sizes are: / 281GB /backup0 34.33TB /backup1 34.33TB /scratch 3.64TB /zfsbkp 1.64TB /zfsbkp/code 7.11TB I've tried deleting it and re-adding with the same result. The system is a Debian 7.6 using XFS and ZFS file systems. This is causing us to get alerts for this system when in fact it is fine. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? -- [exegy_119x45_xparent]<https://www.exegy.com/> S.

Multiple Payments
by Franks Andy (IT Technical Architecture Manager) 03 Aug '17

03 Aug '17

Hi, We're a subscriber to observium professional and recently did what we did last year and paid the £240 for renewal. The accounts department are querying that a further £180 has been taken out in the same month. I can only assume this is due to an auto renewal system. How do I enable / disable this, and how can we claim the money back since we seem to have paid twice? Thanks Andy Franks

Help with Alert Checker matching
by Troy 03 Aug '17

03 Aug '17

I'm hoping somebody can help with an alert checker. I'd like to look at "port_descr_notes" and if it contains NoAlert anywhere in it - not have it fire the *should be up rule*. ifAdminStatus equals up ifOperStatus equals down I've tried... port_descr_notes notmatch *NoAlert* port_descr_notes notregexp .*NoAlert.* Both with no success (they both completely invalidate the rule). The string "NoAlert" should be able to fall anywhere in the description, start, middle, end - or just completely by itself. Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

Wildcards in hostname device match not working
by Sebastian Klute 03 Aug '17

03 Aug '17

Hello everyone, today I noticed that wildcards are not working anymore if I use them for hostnames as I create new alert checker. the hostnames I try to trigger are commonly looking like this: vh01-name vh02-name ... vh16-name Simple running numbers counting up and the rest is the same. I tried the following masks as match: *name* vh* vh*-name none of the above are working. The current workaround is to write a hostname check for every machine, as I got 16 Device Match entries at the moment. Could this be because of the !=/ne operand I use? Because the logical function I try to accomplish is filtering out specific servers from a alerter, so they will be ignored and not checked. Can you give an advise? Thanks and much regards, Sebastian

Subscription Support
by Kevin Jacobson 02 Aug '17

02 Aug '17

Looking for assistance on extending our subscription. I'm a current subscriber with an expiration of 2017-01-23 and I wanted to renew early to spend the money this year. I paid for another year, but instead of extending our current subscription a new SVN account was created with its own expiration. Is there a way to just extend our exiting one an additional 12 months instead? Leaving important info out of this message - please contact me privately. :) Thanks! Kevin

by Thomas Stather 01 Aug '17

01 Aug '17

Hi We are running some Instant APs from Aruba (Model: IAP-335 with firmware 6.5.1.5-4.3.1.4) and i was wondering if you can implement support for these models? The MIBs are fw-related and for every AP in Observium, the graphs "Number of APs", "Wireless Clients" show no data. Attached are the MIBs for this firmware release Best, Thomas -- Thomas Stather IT Services VCP4, VCP6-DCV Tel: +49 6221-486 628 Fax: +49 6221-486 561 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Max Planck Institute for Medical Research (MPImF) Jahnstrasse 29, 69120 Heidelberg Germany
