running observium on freebsd
by Simon Smith 22 Oct '16

22 Oct '16

Hi All, this is a random question, has anyone got observium running correctly on freebsd? managed to get it all setup and running, panels fine, add devices fine, poll device manually, etc only issue I’m having is i can’t get the cronjob working for every 5mins? i can see from the cron log in /var/log its running the poller correctly Oct 18 04:05:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[49554]: (root) CMD (/opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py 2 >> /dev/null) Oct 18 04:10:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[50385]: (root) CMD (/usr/libexec/atrun) Oct 18 04:10:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[50387]: (root) CMD (/opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py 2 >> /dev/null) Oct 18 04:15:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[51227]: (root) CMD (/usr/libexec/atrun) Oct 18 04:15:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[51228]: (root) CMD (/opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py 2 >> /dev/null) Oct 18 04:20:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[52076]: (root) CMD (/usr/libexec/atrun) Oct 18 04:20:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[52079]: (root) CMD (/opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py 2 >> /dev/null) Oct 18 04:25:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[52917]: (root) CMD (/usr/libexec/atrun) Oct 18 04:25:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[52918]: (root) CMD (/opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py 2 >> /dev/null) Oct 18 04:30:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[53752]: (root) CMD (/usr/libexec/atrun) Oct 18 04:30:00 observium /usr/sbin/cron[53753]: (root) CMD (/opt/observium/poller-wrapper.py 2 >> /dev/null) however no data gets inserted into the db, but if i run the command manually as root, it inserts stuff fine? the only thing i can think of is the php is running apache which then runs as www not root would this have an issue maybe? regards Simon

quering raid status on adaptec, lsi, 3w cli
by Sebastian Klute 21 Oct '16

21 Oct '16

Is there a way to get the current raid status of the common controllers? We are using several LSI 9xxxx series some adaptec 6405 8405 and from time to time 3ware controllers. I've noticed that there is a discovery module for raid but if enabled nothing happens. Looking into some codes even through the unix agent there is only cfggen but no support for megacli like stuff. Any workarounds? Other methods to get the status?

Hi, Thanks for that, I’ve selected one host and disabled the MIB here (only): I have left the Sensors module (and all others) enabled and then re-run the discovery – output attached. FWIW – in the non-debug mode, it still mentions UNCDZ (twice actually): ##### Module Start: sensors ##### ENTITY-SENSOR-MIB o UNCDZ-MIB temp-amb [] temp-ext [] temp-mand [] temp-circ [] temp-ac [] umid-amb [] hdiff [] hu-diff [.] hset [.] hset-sm [.] t-set-sm [] t-set-c-sm [] t-cw-dh [] t-set-cw [] t-rc-es [] t-rc-est [] t-set-lm [.] hu-set [] hu-set-sm [] o UNCDZ-MIB t-set [] t-diff [] t-set-c [] <snip>...

Checker/Alert Notification Issue
by Pico Leto 21 Oct '16

21 Oct '16

Hi, I have a BGP alert checker / notification that doesn't seem to be working like it used to. The check applies to only about 140 peers. It's the standard test that the documentation provides. Enitity/Device match are * and the test is: bgpPeerAdminStatus equals start bgpPeerState notequals established I've noticed recently that I have only been getting some device notifications while the others don't even make it to the mail queue, however observium says that a notification was sent. I've tried deleting the alert checker and recreating it with the same results. Created a fake BGP peer that is in Active mode right now and ran the debugger on it (also a debug on a current working peer) *(no notification)* $ ./test_alert.php -a 128226 -dd DEBUG!

Context switches since upgrade
by William Bauer 21 Oct '16

21 Oct '16

I upgraded our community edition on Monday from the previous release dated 5/4/2016 to the latest release. I'm using observium to monitor the VM on which it is running, which is CentOS 6. The context switches graph has gone from hovering around 3500 to about 4200 immediately after the upgrade. System interrupts have increased by about the same percentage, and System I/O and Load Average have bumped up slightly. Are all of these typical of this upgrade? Nothing else was done to the system or to the devices being monitored. The increase in all these graphs (and a corresponding significant decrease in Observium performance) all correspond exactly in time to the upgrade. I've been wondering why it's performing worse, and then I noticed these items. Just looking for ideas or any helpful suggestions, and if this is to be expected. Thanks. Bill

Carel / pCo Discovery
by Robert Williams 21 Oct '16

21 Oct '16

Hi all, I see that there has just been an update to the detection of the Carel pCo controllers, which has added a lot of new sensor definitions for many people I expect (a good thing would have been an awful lot of work for someone which is appreciated of course!). Unfortunately, as the pCo is a programmable unit (and we are an OEM/unit programmer for Carel) we use the units for a large number of custom applications across a number of our facilities and customers. Previously we weren't getting any sensor-specific information via Observium for these units (just network, CPU, ram etc.) which is OK as we use other BMS systems to get the environmental data. Since the last update, we are getting a load of sensors but unfortunately (since our units are programmed by us) they are now showing alarms across most of the output, for example: The values being polled are also non-sensical because whatever the OIDs which are being used are either not aligned to anything we use or just totally irrelevant values. Humidity example below (obviously it's not 3,4 and 16 %): Interestingly, we do also have some 'official' Carel chiller controllers (running genuine Airedale control pCO units, not our own) - and these are also showing crazy values as chillers (no matter where you get them from) do not have 'Delivery Air Temperature' or 'Humidification Proportional Bands' as they don't' deal with air directly - for example: So it appears the detection logic is not just limited to incorrectly identifying our own custom controllers but also those of other manufacturers like Airedale, who also use Carel OEM pCO hardware like us. With all this in mind, can I ask what is the best way to prevent these devices from being detected as " Carel pCOWeb (Chiller Unit) ". So that they go back to being simple pCOWeb units with basic stats like Ethernet and CPU? Example device data is: So like I said at the start, I fully appreciate there was a lot of effort by someone to get all these sensors setup and that's great for people using the software they were configured to detect. I just need to 'not' detect our units as being the same really. Input welcome :) Cheers! Robert Williams Custodian Data Centre Email: Robert(a)CustodianDC.com http://www.CustodianDC.com

RRD Graphs Not Generated.

Hi, I upgraded this morning to the latest version and for some reason the graphs are now not being generated (rrd). I do see the files being updated (date and time looks as of now). You can see here for example the CPUs are 100% (should be) however the graph shows nothing. [image: Inline image 1] Any ideas? Thanks Laurence
