Mailing list: Subs only, or open access?
by Adam Armstrong 07 Nov '13

07 Nov '13

Hi All, Someone mentioned during the "Support Gate" scandal at the weekend that we might consider making the mailing list accessible to subscribers only. Do you guys think this is a good idea? adam.

Graph Gaps - aka I've horked something
by chip 06 Nov '13

06 Nov '13

Hi all, Yesterday afternoon I added several devices and since then I'm getting gaps in *all* my graphs. Even those for the localhost. I upgraded to the latest (commercial) version, just to check, and still having issues. I'm not quite sure what to make of this. I have nfsen and cacti running on the same box and their graphs all look ok so it seems something specific to observium. My disk io is a bit high but not too bad, cpu is good, ram is fine. See attached screen shot for example of gaps. 8gb of RAM Ubuntu 12.04 750gb sata disk (ST3750640NS) Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5450 @ 3.00GHz *couple of notes* - a few days ago I tweaked some mysql settings < #table_cache = 64 --- > table_cache = 600 65c65 < query_cache_size = 16M --- > query_cache_size = 32M - Also in order to group some devices together I manually edited the observium.device.location column in the db for some of the devices. Thoughts? Direction? Thanks all! --chip -- Just my $.02, your mileage may vary, batteries not included, etc....

Disable default maps location
by Jason Lixfeld 06 Nov '13

06 Nov '13

I have a few hundred devices that I will be working on adding sysLocation to. It'll take some time, but until that's done, is there any way to disable the default location for unknown location devices and still be able to see the one the map that do have sysLocation? Seeing all those in the middle of the Atlantic is a little useless to me :) Thanks!

Compensating for hostname changes
by Jason Lixfeld 06 Nov '13

06 Nov '13

My company wants to institute a naming convention change and as such, we'd need to update the hostnames in Observium to match. I presume that Observium will not magically update anything if a hostname changes, and I'm sure others have gone through this activity in the past, so I'd like feedback on what's the best way to go about it and any caveats. From my very limited perspective on the matter, I think all I need to do is change the hostnames in the hostname column of the devices table in conjunction with renaming the $observium/rrds/$hostname to match the change. Yes? No? Maybe So? Thanks in advance.

ServerTech Sentry3 Graphs & Infeeds

Hi guys, Hoping someone can point me in the right direction or lend a hand – I have installed Observium CE 0.13.10.4585 to RHEL 6 and have it up and running. Added a couple of power rails, however none of the graphs are populating (no network traffic, uptime or voltage). But, all of the devices added are reporting back their current load and status. [cid:image001.png@01CED48E.68EA1960] [cid:image003.png@01CED48E.68EA1960] [cid:image004.png@01CED48E.68EA1960] Also noticed that Observium is only reporting on 2 of the 4 Current Infeeds (as per 1st screenshot) – is there a way to enable Observium to display the other 4 feeds?

Upgrade to 4737 broke some graphs
by Chris Pelling 06 Nov '13

06 Nov '13

Hi Guys, Upgraded today using "svn update" to 4737 from 4760 and 2 switch graphs (dell) stopped showing data, cisco, vyatta and one dell unaffected. For example, we have 2 x Dell M6220 stacked blades *a and c* and 1 x Dell M6348 stacked blade switch all in M1000e chassis. a = worked before and after, graph looks aok b = worked before, now stopped c = worked before, now stopped An interesting observation, if I drill down to a port on B, and click realtime, its showing realtime information - so we know that works. Billing also seems unaffected, just the graphs at : /devices/type=network/format=graphs/graph=bits/ stopped for these 2 devices (albeit one is identical to a working device) exactly at the time of upgrade. I confirmed we did do the upgrade as per the wiki : svn update ./discovery.php -h none So now stumped, what can I do to get them back showing the current data (they have the historical few hours before update) and/or what can I run to aid in finding a poss issue ? :-) -- Kind regards, Chris

Fwd: Regarding developers attitude...
by Doychin Dokov 05 Nov '13

05 Nov '13

Hi all, I would just like to share my experience with the attitude of Adam towards general minor web-interface issue reported by a paying customer (me). I've reported that the OSPF stats look very confusing and provided a screenshot which shows the issue. The inital response I got was "jira is not for general complaining". My answer was: "Where do we do so, then? Now that Observium is paid, we deserve some proper attention to problems, at least.... Not just the close-it-as-fast-as-you-can attitude you have so far.... Also, I'm more than willing to fix it myself by looking at the BGP code, so was jast curios if there is any plan to already rework the OSPF pages, as what is seen on the screenshot is really of no use - and I guess your opinion is the same as well." Which resulted in these comments from Tom Laermans and Adam Armstrong: "I believe you are confused about what exactly it is that you paid for." "You're definitely doing the right thing to make sure we add the features you want..." And then the issue was completely deleted.... So, I'd like to point these things: * why do we get such an attitude against the money kindly "asked" from us? Being a kickstarter supporter for the alerting system, I kind of felt being lied to, since the Observium developers decided that one has to get a license to receive the full functionality which the funding was raised for in the first place... Anyways, I understand the need for more revenue, but not the attitude at all. * this is in no way requesting a new feature. Is just a report, plus marked as of minor importance, which shows a feature already available in Observium being kind-of unusable. This makes me completely not understand the way developers behaved. * i've asked Adam in a personal e-mail what's the reason for this attitude. Since he did not get the guts to reply, I hope he does it here. I'd very much want to know what I've done wrong to provoke such an attitude. * this is not the first time one of the developers would say "idiot" to a (paying) user. So go ahead, shoot me. Thank you for your time and sorry about the need to post this here.

observium just stops after switching to subscription.

If i run discovery.php -h none I get no output. The only way I could get it going again was to uncomment this line in common.php if (file_exists($config['install_dir']."/includes/debug/ref.inc.php")) { include($config['install_dir']."/includes/debug/ref.inc.php"); $ref_loaded = TRUE; } Whats my problem? I´am running centos. Thomas

I think the majority of these complaints have come from users who have forgotten this is a grassroots, homegrown effort, which single handedly out performs many other NMS systems albeit paid or free. If you expect answers and resolution to every minute detail which you don't like, put you money where your mouth is. The Observium team has been more than gracious to continue to develop such a great monitoring platform and keep it going while still maintaining the open source ideals. > On Nov 3, 2013, at 4:13 PM, observium-request(a)observium.org wrote: > > Send observium mailing list submissions to > observium(a)observium.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://postman.memetic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/observium > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > observium-request(a)observium.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > observium-owner(a)observium.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of observium digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

control device ports via SNMP
by Bogdan Ghita 01 Nov '13

01 Nov '13

Hello I've been looking through the features of Observium but couldn't find out whether it includes functionality to disable or enable individual ports on a (monitored) switch/router via SNMP. I understand that this lies outside the scope of the software, but I thought I'd ask just in case it's there (or can be enabled optionally) and I missed it. If it isn't, could anybody recommend a management/monitoring software able to provide this? Best regards Bogdan

Frontpage map show province with ISO 3166-2
by Florian Znottka 01 Nov '13

01 Nov '13

Hello! Observium works for me like a charm, but I have a problem with the frontpage map: I can't get a province with a region ISO 3166-2 code (e.g. DE-SH) as a full map on the frontpage. Only working configuration is to show the whole country (e.g. DE) which is a bit to big. All co-locations of our servers are too close to each other (20 miles) , so that you can't figure out on the map, which location is which. My config.php so far: $config['frontpage']['map']['resolution'] = "provinces"; $config['frontpage']['map']['region'] = "DE-SH"; $config['frontpage']['map']['dotsize'] = "1"; error-message: Request map does not exist. Is my config file incorrect or does it not work? Or is there another method to zoom in on the map? Thanks for help Kind Regards Florian

Error drawing Graph
by Roman Romanyak 01 Nov '13

01 Nov '13

Hello everyone, I'm having strange issue, and spend a lot of time troubleshooting this without any success. Getting error 'error drawing graph' only for some devices only - EX4200 switches, which are located in the remote datacenter. After I started seeing issue, I install another switch here in local datacenter and added it to observium and its working good. Could be the issue in latency - the delay is about 30ms? discovery and poller scripts run good, the only thing I noticed that for the devices that don't work I in rrd/<device_name>/ files port-###.rrd are missing. The CPU and Memory graphs are working good, only network graphs are having errors. Thanks, Roman.

This is most certainly related to network conditions or polling frequency. The poller must run every 5 minutes. Make sure you are running the latest version (svn update) Adam.

Upgrading to SVN stopped SNMP on my Zhones
by Brian Merrell 30 Oct '13

30 Oct '13

ZNID-GE-2424-NA-0GN- Zhone Indoor Network Interface Device; Release S2.5.073; We're looking at an 8 port zhone as well (better for triple play). I had 40 in that I need to monitor usage for but because of the SNMP issues affected by existing method of usage collection I have to take them out until I know i have a stable new setup for them with this. We have more but don't need to collect stats on all of them as that usually becomes somewhat cost prohibitive.

Upgrading to SVN stopped SNMP on my Zhones
by Brian Merrell 30 Oct '13

30 Oct '13

Code where this issue crops up appears to be 4711. 4710 looks like it works but 4711 seems to struggle through the poller process. I'm not sure that it isn't the discovery as I have gotten that exact and I'm still on a learning curve here. That said, 4710 is working right now on my zhones so I'm going keep testing on it.

Upgrading to SVN stopped SNMP on my Zhones

Zhone's are being detected as "GENERIC" which is fine for as long as I get my port data. I started using Observium just last week and in the Open Source version and it gathered data fine all weekend for my Zhone switches. Changing over to the SVN and updating seems to be causing my zhones to stop responding to SNMP. Allied and Alcatel devices (which have the MIBS built in) work fine. Is there a specific SVN version that correlates to the Edition Split that I could try and go back too to see if that poller or discovery works better for these devices? Anybody else notice this? I've been looking for a couple hours and don't see much trouble with the poller like this lately.

Hi, After the update that changed the map, I not only what's in the picture, but when I click on the US marker, it takes me to colocation devices in Amsterdam, not to NYC. I have the paid version, consistently update. There must be something that I need to fix here. Any suggestions?

Percentage ratio between two graphs ?
by Will van Gulik 29 Oct '13

Hi Everyone, I'd be interested to know if there is a way to get some percentage ratio between two graphs. I was thinking of my transit and peering graphs for instance, but could be between two (or more) other graphs. Any ideas ? Maybe it's something already on the roadmap somewhere ?

Juniper MX memory issue
by Steve Rossen 29 Oct '13

29 Oct '13

Is anyone else using Observium on the Juniper MX80 platform? I know the MX960 is listed as supported but not the smaller one and we are seeing an odd memory issue that lines up perfectly with when we started polling it with Observium. Attached/linked image shows the last 12 months of memory usage on a MX5. Not sure if it is related to Observium or not so reaching out to see if other are seeing a similar slow memory climb or not. http://i.imgur.com/9PET5L3.png

pfSense SNMP daemon crashes after update to r4711
by Stefano Cordio 28 Oct '13

28 Oct '13

Hello guys, yesterday I updated my Observium (Centos 6.4) to the r4711 and I noticed that all my pfSense firewalls (5 hosts, two 2.0.3 and three 2.1) became down. On every host, the SNMP daemon was crashed. I tried to restart the daemon on every pfSense, but it crashed again and it seems to me that it crashes during the next cycle of polling (the discovery seems to go fine). Today I tried to update to the r4715 but I'm experiencing the same problem. Has anyone experienced something like that? How can I go deeper? Thanks for any hints, Kind Regards Stefano
