Multiple Pollers Guidance
by Chip Pleasants 09 Apr '14

09 Apr '14

When there are multiple pollers via NFS how do they pick the devices to poll? Basically how to they not step all over each other polling the same nodes? I'm seeing snmp and ping alerts like 15 or so every hour come in that didn't come in when it was a single server solution. It does seem to be the same 20 or so devices. These particular devices do typically take around 60 sec to poll. Looking at devices that generated alerts their cpu, snmp response time, and ping time was all over the place. Meaning cpu doubled (10% to 20%), ping times went up to 200ms from 10ms, and snmp response time average when from 50ms to 556ms. I'm wondering if I was polling these devices multiple times within 5 minutes? Would this be related to NFS IO issues? I reverted back to a single solution for now. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. -Chip Config Sniplet $config['alerts']['email']['enable'] = TRUE; $config['poller-wrapper']['alerter'] = TRUE; $config['snmp']['timeout'] = 6; $config['snmp']['retries'] = 3; $config['snmp']['max-rep'] = 10; $config['fping'] = "/usr/sbin/fping -t2000";

Good morning list. Does anyone know if Observium is able to show the total uptime (or downtime) between two points in time? Is this be something the billing module can handle?

Ubiquiti AirOS MIB
by Robbie Wright 08 Apr '14

08 Apr '14

UBNT has finally released their officially supported MIB's in their most recent release. I know a few folks are lurking on this list that would love to see those MIB's officially supported and a few of us more than happy to pay for said support in Observium. Todd/Adam/Mike, an interest in taking this on as a sponsored improvement? I can send you the MIB privately if you'd like a sneak peek.

Remote SysLogging
by Marco Spicuglia 08 Apr '14

08 Apr '14

Hello there, it seems that I have some issues with remote syslogging. Some network devices work well, some others don't. The problem seems to be related to the Observium host, I think, as running syslog-ng -Fevd on my observium server, shows that log entries are coming in also from the devices that do not have any log entry in the GUI. It seems that syslog-ng gets the log entries, but they do not get properly passed to Observium, for some reason, at least for some devices. Therefore, those entries do not show up in the mysql database and thus neither in the GUI. I had this problem also on two other Observium hosts I have tried, but only since an upgrade I performed around October 2013. Before it was working fine for all those devices. Anything I can check/do for fixing this? Thanks in advance for your help. Best regards, Marco Met vriendelijke groet/ Kind regards, Marco Spicuglia Network engineer - Programmer ReasonNet B.V.

Recalculate history usage data
by Jimmy Samuel García Hynds 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

Hello, >From time to time I have this huge spikes in the traffic bills that are abnormal, in those cases I just change those values to 0 in the database, I replace them in the bill_data table, and the charts return to normal, I do not mind losing 10 or 20 minutes of readings. This is my question, Is there a way to recalculate the historical data? That data is updated even if I delete the date in the bill_data table, and I do not want to screw up my installation.

How do I get linux boxes to show up in the inventory?
by Ricardo M Meleschi 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

Hello again! I noticed there’s an inventory option for Observium. I’m wondering if there’s a way to get the linux boxes that are being monitored by observium into the inventory list? it’d be a nice way to keep track of things, even if I need to make manual modifications to the database. I’ve already added the serial #’s for the systems, and I was hoping that would be enough for the inventory page on observium to populate, but it wasn’t. Thanks, Ricardo

Port Properties do not work
by Marco Zberg 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

Hi Currently I feel stuck with an quite ordinary process, disabling of polling and alerts. Normally (on another Observium instance) we deactivate all ports with ifOperStatus=down and ifAdminStatus=down via select/update statement directy in mysql. On our affected Observium instance we have plenty of ports we do not like to poll and keep them deactivated. We have Cisco Catalyst 4507 in use, which are equipped with 400 customer ports (downstream). It is unpractical to activate them all and would overload our Observium with too may SNMP requests. We manually keep the upstream ports (10G Ethernet, Port-Channel etc.) and some specific customer ports activated. When I toggle the ports manually (yes or no) or via "Toggle All" button, it says: "Device record unchanged. No update necessary". Effectively nothing has changed and the ports are still active which should be deactivated. This problem affects the "Polling" and "Alerts" function. Maybe there is a workaround possible via manual update in the mysql DB? Currently we use Rev. 5163.

Search Bug
by Andrej Kurlovic 04 Apr '14

04 Apr '14

Good Day Observium, I noticed one bug with Observium. Let's say I have a switch with user ports. Users are come and go, so I would like to disable alerts on them for Port Down State on the main page (see screenshot) [cid:image001.png@01CF4FDE.15C3A0F0] To do that I will go to device setting page->Ports https://observium.frontline/device/device=34/tab=edit/section=ports/ and Toggle alerts to No (see screenshot) [cid:image003.png@01CF4FDE.34DDF850] As soon as I save this, port is no longer appear in the main page as intended, but what is does as well - I can't search for the port in the search bar anymore (see screenshot examples below) Before toggle alerts off (Alerts=Yes): [cid:image002.png@01CF4FDF.27FC9640] After I toggle alerts off (Alerts=No) [cid:image004.png@01CF4FDF.27FC9640] This happens instantaneously as soon as I toggle alerts to No, and when I toggle back to Yes I can search port again. Can you please advise if this is expected behaviour? Because what I want is to disable alerts for user ports, to ensure that on the main page only alerts for important ports appear, however I still want to be able to search ports (with Alerts set to NO) using search box.

Feature Request: filter by snmp system contact
by Martin Smith 04 Apr '14

04 Apr '14

Hello developers, I would like to request the ability to filter by the SysContact field. Devices and ports already have the ability to be filtered by states, speeds, media, port types and locations; I think it would be beneficial to add snmp contact as well. Mostly, I'd like to see it added to the filter header on both the devices and ports pages. [cid:image002.jpg@01CF4F2A.DE764F70] For companies who use the same system contact on all their devices this may have limited value. However, hosting providers could use the feature to filter by device ownership or local network engineer. As we often manage/monitor many devices owned by other companies.

Great job on fixing a bug that wasn't yours to fix before I'd even told you about it :-) Hopefully Eaton will be equally efficient! Am very impressed with what I've seen so far in Observium in a week's dabbling. Am certainly contemplating taking out a subscription to stay current once I've done some more testing and added the rest of our equipment in, and ideally found some way to make it talk to the equipment that doesn't do SNMP...

strange discovery behaviour
by Bastiaan Topper 02 Apr '14

02 Apr '14

Hi, We have a few Cisco routers monitored by Observium which lose their attributes over time. When I do a manual discovery the memory/processor/ip address and BGP peers are correctly added. But over time (between minutes and hours, as you can see below) the information is removed. [cid:image001.png@01CF4D9A.03605160] Then information about BGP or processor/memory disappear. After a manual discovery of the device they are added back, but again after a while they disappear. [cid:image005.png@01CF4D9A.566ADCE0] Is this some kind of bug? Do you need any debug information from me, please let me know!? Thanks. Met vriendelijke groet, Bastiaan Topper

Device page not building correct
by A. Lantink 02 Apr '14

02 Apr '14

Hi all, Since a couple of builds i have a problem with the device page. I didn't mention it yet, since I couldn't exactly reproduce since which update the error occurred, and hoped it would go away after some other updates. But it's still here. The page is somehow not completely generated. See below the example of device=1, but all devices have the same problem. The HTML source can be viewed here: http://www.colocenter.nl/observium_device_source.txt It just stops. Running the latest SVN version(5176). The main page, and for example the ports page work fine. It's just the device page. http://www.colostats.nl/devices/ works fine, but http://www.colostats.nl/device/device=ID/ wont. Any idea's what his might be causing? Kind regards, Alexander

imbedded alert graphs missing in alert emails using outlook / gmail
by Martin Smith 01 Apr '14

01 Apr '14

Hello, I'm aware that the imbedded image problem has been discussed on here previously. I believe the final answer was "outlook sucks". Both outlook and Gmail web are unable to display the images, but my android email application works. I asked one of our support guys to take a peak and help shed some light on the matter. According to him, it might boil down to using a cid tag instead of a data tag to imbed the image. I have no idea what that means, but hopefully it will help an intelligent developer. Thanks for any and all help into this matter. I'd love to see graphs in my alerts! I've included his email below for additional details: ------ The specific image in question that is not loading is embedded as a base64 encoded image, with a data tag instead of cid tag for the source URL in the message source. Outlook uses Word for composing and displaying emails, and apparently Word does not support the method by which the png file was embedded, as it does not use a cid tag. The PNG format itself is not the issue, because I was able to acquire the original image, paste it into a new email in Outlook, and send it to myself, and it shows up just fine. Looking at the source in that scenario, the PNG source is using a cid tag. I'm uncertain how the message in question is being generated, and whether the method by which it's embedding the image can be altered, but ultimately it seems like the current method is unsupported by Outlook/Word, and I have not yet found any good fixes or workarounds, other than to change the embedding method, or to run a command in Outlook that will open the email in a web browser, which will then display the image in question.

Help with a simple email setting
by Jake Hansen 01 Apr '14

01 Apr '14

Sorry if this has been posted before but I have been trying to find it for a few hours now. I'm trying to find where the system sets the emailto field when hosts go down. Right now, when a host goes down, somehow its still emailing the old email address sometimes. I have grep -R the entire /opt/observium folder but nothing comes up. I have also tried to set the following setting to no avail $config['alerts']['email']['enable'] = TRUE; $config['alerts']['email']['default'] = "netops(a)blah.com"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['descr'] = "Default Email Alert"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['type'] = "email"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['contact'] = "netops(a)blah.com"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['enable'] = TRUE; But sometimes some of the emails(not all) will still go out to our old email address help(a)blah.com I cant for the life of me figure out how to fix it and have been scouring the observium docs to no avail. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks! -- Jake Hansen Sr. Network Administrator ZTelco / Zray Technologies, Inc. 858-431-4411 Direct 858-565-2155 Office

Dealing with "slow" hosts
by Remco Bressers 30 Mar '14

30 Mar '14

Dear list, A few of our routers in the network are terribly slow in handling the complete ifEntry from IF-MIB to Observium. This results in gaps in graphs and there’s no way to speed things up because of relatively broken/slow implementations in (in this case) Brocade XMR hardware. In the past we monitored ifInOctets/ifOutOctets and a few OID’s more. The full ifEntry is too heavy. Is there a way to deal with this, like a possibility to prevent polling the whole thing and skip certain unneeded OID’s. Are there any plans to enhance the poller for this possibility of is there any (filthy) hack known to do this? Any ideas on this would be great. We would definitely want to throw Cacti to /dev/null but due to this problem it’s not yet possible. Not necessary to say this again but we are very, very happy with Observium. Thanks Adam, Mike, Tom and others.. Regards, Remco Bressers Signet BV

Re: [Observium] delete ports?
by John Poznicek 30 Mar '14

30 Mar '14

Ok not sure what I am doing wrong here - there has to be a way to remove these unwanted nics. So you can see info here http://imgur.com/a/XNhO4 I have this in my config.php // bad interfaces $config['bad_if'][] = "NC-8100w"; I have gone into the database directly and marked the interfaces deleted. But they just get readded, delete gets removed - see the event log in the above screenshots. So I have turned off discovery for the device, and gone into the database and deleted the records of the intefaces. Which works for a bit - but then they show up again. This is a brother HL-3170cdw printer.. I don't know how I would delete the interface on the device directly. How do I remove these wireless interfaces from what observium shows. This printer will never use the wireless interfaces it has. So how do I remove them from observium showing them? You would think if I disable discovery of ports, and then delete them from the database they would never get put back.. But clearly they do - is there some step I am missing? If you need any other info just please ask. TIA

adding non snmp hosts?
by John Poznicek 30 Mar '14

30 Mar '14

So I have observium up and running, even smokeping integration which brings up my question. I have a few vpses, seedbox, webhost, etc. that I would like to add to my growing lists of devices in observium. But seems you can not add a device that doesn't have snmp? I don't want to monitor anything than the info than say my smokeping graphs in the same web interface. Be nice to show their location on the man graph as green/yellow/red etc.. My vps I might even add the unix agent grab some info from them.. But I don't really want or need snmp queries across the public net to them So how do you add these types of devices - they added smokeping integration to leverage the details it gives. So how can I just see these smokeping devices in the observium web interface without having to add the device via snmp? There doesn't seem to be a way to add a device without being able to talk to it via snmp?

Google Maps

Prezados, boa noite! Gostaria de saber se ja é possível ativar o mapa do Google, igual ao da demostração, na página do observium, utilizando a versão comunitária. Gostaria também de deixar uma mensagem de protesto contra a política de versões comunitárias e pagas. Eu até entendo os motivos, mas não concordo de forma alguma. Se alguém puder responder minha dúvida sobre o google maps agradeço! Obrigado. Dear, good night! I wonder if you can already activate the Google map, same as the demo, in observium page, using the community version. I would also like to leave a message of protest against the policy community and paid versions. I can understand the reasons, but I do not agree at all. If anyone can answer my questions about the google maps thanks! Thank you.

Issues with bind graphs - Where to start looking?
by Ricardo M Meleschi 27 Mar '14

27 Mar '14

Hello everyone, I've identified an issue with storing of values that are grabbed by the unix-agent. Specifically, a problem with the bind sub-agent. Apparently, when req-in,QUERY exceeds a value of 2,147,483,648, the value that actually gets stored in the app-bind-122-req-in.rrd is: # rrdtool info app-bind-122-req-in.rrd | grep query ds[query].index = 0 ds[query].type = "DERIVE" ds[query].minimal_heartbeat = 600 ds[query].min = 0.0000000000e+00 ds[query].max = 7.5000000000e+06 >> ds[query].last_ds = "2147483647" << ds[query].value = 0.0000000000e+00 ds[query].unknown_sec = 0 This is despite the current value actually being: # ./bind | grep -i req-in,Q req-in,QUERY:2368417221 I initially thought there was an issue with a 32 bit vs 64 bit counter in the RRD itself, but it looks like ds[query].max is well above a 32bit variable's max value. I am at a loss as to where the problem may be and am hoping that someone on the mailing list can point me in the right direction. I can't believe I'm the first one to run into this issue actually... Here's what happens to my graph when this issue arises: This happens to other dns graphs as well, but it happens to this one the quickest, since it hits that 'limit' faster than the other counters do. Additionally, I'm running 0.14.3.5117 if that helps. If I restart named, the graph begins graphing properly again, but I don't want to consider that a 'fix', especially since I'd be resetting all of my bind servers every week. Doable, but not ideal. Thanks for any assistance, Ricardo

How are the other fields (port_descr_circuit, port_descr_speed and port_descr_notes) populated? [cid:image002.png@01CF4850.C237BCD0] Thanks!

Re: [Observium] Difference between discovery and discovery with debug [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED

Nope. -d just sets $debug so that things output optional stuff. Very odd indeed.

It's other three PDU mates were corrrectly discovered as apc.

SVI - Vlan IF graphs
by Marco Spicuglia 26 Mar '14

26 Mar '14

Hello there, I would like to monitor SVI bandwidth on those devices that support such counters. I activated the etherlike mib option in the config and started polling a Nexus 6k, which supports snmp counters on vlan interfaces. I see the snmp counters increasing on the switch, but I see only blank graphs on vlan interfaces, which are properly detected, including their status. The device is properly polled for anything else and it seems that all needed mibs are already included in your distribution. I am running the latest stable release. Any idea? Am I missing anything? Thanks for your help. Regards, Marco Met vriendelijke groet/ Kind regards, Marco Spicuglia Network engineer - Programmer ReasonNet B.V. Gyroscoopweg 134 - 140 1042AZ Amsterdam W. www.reasonnet.com E.
