I've setup a couple of alerts however I don't see a way to have the alerts email sent out say every 5 minutes or w/e if the alert is triggered. Is there a way to cahnge this? I have a server which triggered an alert and last time alerted is more than 30 minutes ago.

Interface description parser issues
by Chard, Alex (REA-SYD) 14 Sep '14

14 Sep '14

Hi All, Wondering if anyone can help with this... I have Observium setup on about 30 switches and routers. The only feature I haven't been able to get working is the tagging interfaces based on description as Transit, peering etc. As an example, this is one of our Internet transit interfaces: interface GigabitEthernet0/1 description Transit: {14379} (Pipe Networks AS24130) [100Mbit] Observium tells me: Total Graph for ports of type : Transit None found. Any ideas why this might not work? Many thanks, Alex Chard This e-mail is for the use of the intended recipient(s) only.

>From switch port side which connect to our f5, I can clearly see traffic is at 500M bps. Just from f5 side, it seems not polling correct at all. Thanks.

Need assistance adding an application...
by Christopher K. Brown 13 Sep '14

13 Sep '14

Anyone familiar with adding an application? I think I have everything the documentation said to do in place, and I followed the example of a patch (asterix) that added an application, but I cannot get the web GUI to display the new app in the Apps tabs and dropdowns. I have an application that spits out data in the right place...I can telnet to the polling port and the output includes my new data with the proper <<< >>> header. So I'm thinking I may have to add a row to the applications table in the observium database? Is that a necessary step? The php looks like it needs an 'app_id' from somewhere. Thanks for any assistance.

Re: [Observium] Enterasys Chassis Switches polling\discovery problems

Hello, how would I disable that module in the config file for only those Switches? It also doesn't seem to be grabbing the port names. All 600+ ports just say "Extreme Networks, Inc. 1000BASE-T RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet Frontpanel Port"

f5 bandwidth
by Zhenhui Liang 12 Sep '14

12 Sep '14

Hi, We have several f5 load balancers added. But from observium ui, I saw they report traffic way lower than what f5’s own guy replies. The difference is quite huge. >From observium, each interface shows bandwidth usage like less than 1M bps. >From f5, it shows several hundreds of mega bps. Although from f5’s dashboard, it’s hard to understand, it doesn’t say which interface etc, it simply say out, in client side, server side etc. Also from observium, it reports each interface as 10Mbps. Do we know if F5 is broken? Thanks. —Zhenhui
