Alerts can¹t be added up. They¹re attributed to whatever entity/device/metric combination you create, triggering on the individual values that match your rules. You could create rules to match both of your individual PDUs, or all PDUs, but you can¹t ask it to add/subtract the values of multiple rules or metrics to trigger an alert. Curious - what kind of scenario are you looking at that would warrant this kind of alarm?

Amperage Calc

Is there a way to add PDU Amerage together so you get an alert based on the Amperage Usage of 2 PDUs together? For Example: PDU A - 10 Amps PDU B - 1 Amps If PDU A + PDU B = 12 Amps then Send Alert Something like that. -- Sincerely, Joshua Hopper, A+ CE Network Administrator 420 3rd Ave NW Hickory NC 28601 Office: 828-449-1839x2160 | Cell: 828-855-7565

Avoid Ignored Ports
by Josh Hopper 19 Nov '14

19 Nov '14

Some ports in Observium I set to ignore because I don't need to watch them right now but I will eventually. Even though they are ignored, I'm still alerted by them. How do I filter out ignored ports? -- Sincerely, Joshua Hopper, A+ CE Network Administrator 420 3rd Ave NW Hickory NC 28601 Office: 828-449-1839x2160 | Cell: 828-855-7565

Hi all, Xavier : About IO issues, did you make changes from rrdcached or Obervium/kernel tuning ?

Problems
by Darian Jimenez 18 Nov '14

18 Nov '14

Hello, I have a couple of problems with observium which really hinder me trusting it's alerting feature etc. 1 - Some servers show as down, when in fact they aren't down and snmp is started (i've also tried to restart) 2 - Some server show as up and while I have an alert for storage to send warning only when its below 5% full it will send an alert saying C drive space is at 0% but in fact the servers have more than 10% left. Can these issue's be related to iop's or the polling time? I'd like to figure this out because the SNMP servers are windows servers and everytime one of them is down, I can't afford to troubleshoot by removing snmp and reinstalling it because windows requires a reboot, which I just can't do on domain controllers, file servers etc. Is it possible to put the login portal to observium on a seperate webpage completely so that customers can log into it from our site for example/

Assistance with Port Alert Checker
by Chip Pleasants 18 Nov '14

18 Nov '14

Hi all, I'm looking for a little help figuring our why my port alert checker didn't seem to work.I set up port alert checker to trigger when greater than 80%. The actual usage was at 100% for a couple hours. This is a gigabit interface set to 100m with a bandwidth statement. The screen shot reflects the 100m speed correctly. I've attached a couple screen shots with my port and alert check. Any ideas why it didn't fire off? Thanks, Chip
