CDP neighbor map question
by Kenny Sallee 07 Jan '14

07 Jan '14

Hi all - question - I love the mapping feature for Cisco / CDP devices. Below is what the Map / Diagram looks like for one of the Cisco switches I have discovered...I only care about routers/switches/APs showing up there. Question is: is it possible to exclude certain CDP neighbors from showing up on the Map by default? [image: Inline image 2] -- Netravine Founder | Kenny Sallee | Kenny(a)netravine.com | 503.330.2430

Clear switch stats
by Daniel Rolfe 05 Jan '14

05 Jan '14

HI all, I have two questions, 1) How can I clear switch port and billing stats once a new customer takes over a server ? 2) How can I assign ports as customers in the paid observium ? Customer ports are hp vc flex-10 ports so I don't think I can assign a per port description. Thanks Daniel

Re: [Observium] Dotsize on map

Hello. I would like to reduce the dotsize on the map to 1 but the config dosent seem to be going through. We have 155 devices in Observium at the moment and things can get a bit hard to look at. Especially when you get the big dots when you have a lot of devices grouped together. I googled the issue and I found an old mail discussion where it was said that it wasn't implemented yet. Is this still the case or am I missing something else? //Best regards Gustav

Nix Agent Installation Question
by ryan 02 Jan '14

02 Jan '14

Hello All, I have a quick question about the Unix agent. I have an exim box and want to monitor the queue. This is a quick summary of what I did: I copied observium_agent_xinetd to exim server /etc/xinetd.d/observium_agent Copied obserium_agent to exim server /usr/bin/observium_agent On exim server mkdir /usr/lib/observium_agent/ mkdir /usr/lib/observium_agent/local/ Enabled unix-agent module service xinetd restart chmod +x /etc/xinetd.d/observium_agent and /usr/bin/observium_agent I was able to telnet successfully from the observium server. Output from poller.php shows the unix agent is running: # /opt/observium/poller.php -h eximbox Observium v0.13.10.4585 Poller Starting polling run: util2 10 linux (unix) Observium UNIX Agent: execution time: 209ms No include: No include:Observium No include:df No include:mounts No include:ps No include:mem No include:cpu No include:uptime No include:netif No include:lnx_if:sep(58) No include:tcp_conn_stats No include:md No include:diskstat No include:kernel No include:netctr No include:vbox_guest No include:ntp No include:cups_queues No include:postfix_mailq No include:local ... So I placed the exim-mailqueue.sh in /usr/bin/observium_agent/local/ and chmod +x and ran poller.php twice more, but I am not seeing a tab for apps after running the poller. Is this where the data will show ? Is there a step that I missed somewhere ? Any help is greatly appreciated. Happy New Years, Ryan Prihoda

Device status goes up and down (ping check) without having actual problems
by Mark Nellemann 02 Jan '14

02 Jan '14

Hi, Many of my devices goes Down/Up in Observium, while not having any actual problems. I monitor the same devices with Nagios (on the same server running Observium), so there's no connectivity problems between Observium and the monitored devices. Is this a general problem with the Ping monitoring or just something thats happens to me? And is there any way to disable ping and rely on snmp for up/down status of devices? I have attached a screenshot which shows some devices going down/up. -- Best Regards Mark Nellemann

Re: [Observium] Billing support ?
by Tom Laermans 01 Jan '14

We should do some adjustments to the site so this type of thing is clear immediately. Adam has been putting it off because he wants a different backend for the actual site, but I'll see if I can make some improvements tonight already. Features in sub edition should be marked as such, etc. Tom Nikolay Shopik <shopik(a)inblock.ru> wrote: >Billing only available on commercial version > >> On 30 дек. 2013 г., at 13:55, Daniel Rolfe <daniel.rolfe.au(a)gmail.com> wrote: >> >> HI All, >> >> Really wanting to use the billing feature. >> >> I've installed the latest opensource version (Observium CE 0.13.10.4585) >> >> Running Ubuntu 13.04 i386 under openvz. >> >> Followed the instructions for Debian based install word for word. >> >> Added a hp switch and the below config to my config.php under the MySQL details: >> >> $config['enable_billing'] = 1; # Enable Billing >> $config['billing']['customer_autoadd'] = 1; # Enable Auto-add bill per customer >> $config['billing']['circuit_autoadd'] = 1; # Enable Auto-add bill per circuit_id >> $config['billing']['bill_autoadd'] = 1; # Enable Auto-add bill per bill_id >> >> >> In the web GUI under ports I don't see the billing option like is visible on the observium demo >> >> Anyone know what is going wrong ? >> >> I also don't have the billing cron files ? >> >> root@observium:/etc/cron.d# locate poll-billing.php >> >> >> root@observium:/etc/cron.d# locate billing >> /opt/observium/html/billing-graph.php >> /opt/observium/html/includes/api/module.billing.inc.php >> /opt/observium/html/js/billing.js >> /opt/observium/html/pages/api/manual.billing.inc.php >> /opt/observium/includes/billing.php >> /opt/observium/upgrade-scripts/fix-billing-2758.inc.php >> root@observium:/etc/cron.d# >> >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> observium mailing list >> observium(a)observium.org >> http://postman.memetic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/observium >_______________________________________________ >observium mailing list >observium(a)observium.org >http://postman.memetic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/observium

Apache rewrite question
by Christos Panagiotakis 30 Dec '13

30 Dec '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Before anyone wants to crucify me, I saw this: "Installing Observium on RHEL/CentOS is not directly supported by the development team, so you must be competent enough to debug it yourself. We will not provide assistance on the mailing list or IRC channel with running Observium on any platform other than Debian/Ubuntu." And I respect it. But I made everything to work perfect except one thing only and I am mad. On a RHEL 6 server I installed observium to /home/observium with observium (user) as owner running fcgi and not mod_php running as root / nobody or apache. Normal user. I made the cron work, permissions ok, everything ok under the normal user. The only thing I couldn't understand is the rewrite. I was getting a "No file specified" So I dig it. I had to change it from: RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1/ to: RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1/ [L] to make it work. And it worked. I can see everything like: host/devices/ host/device/device=2/ host/device/device=2/tab=graphs/ host/device/device=2/tab=graphs/group=system/ (and so on..) everything except this evil thing: When I am trying to edit a device properties to -for example- override the system location (Override sysLocation) I am getting this url: host/device/device=2/tab=edit/%2Fdevice%2Fdevice=2%2Ftab%3Dedit%2F/touch=yes/ Not Found The requested URL /device/device=2/tab=edit//device/device=2/tab=edit//touch=yes/ was not found on this server. I repeat, everything else works great. I can add devices, poller works, I can add users / dig and surf the frontend except this.
