Is there a setting to make all the red alerts appear on the map as the top Icon sometimes, a place with multiple devices, the Red Alert Icon shows up under the green ones?

Mysql binary log files full hd
by Jay Hanke 12 Oct '21

12 Oct '21

We've got a server running subscription observium and inadvertently had our mysql binary logging settings not optimized and filled the drive. Mysql won't start to run the recovery process due to the full drive. Server is only running observium. Is it safe to manually delete some of the old binlog files to get mysql to start and then run the cleanup in mysql or would I lose observium info? Thanks! Jay

Adding MIB
by Nick Her 04 Oct '21

04 Oct '21

Hello, I'm a system admin and I'm new to Observium. I've use other monitoring tools in the past, but deploying my own monitoring tool is all new to me. My plan is to test out the waters and possibly implement Observium to our corporate LAN/WAN consisting of approximately 250 devices. I've got 13 core devices responding and polling is working via SNMPv3. I'm getting a lot of useful data from my core switches. One important data I need is DHCP server information (mac address binding/IP address leases) from our HP switches. These core switches have multiple functions and one of those function is DHCP server. I need to be able to pull this DHCP server data and retain it for a period of time. Maybe send it to a syslog server. My problem is the MIB (HP-ICF-DHCPV4-SEVRER-MIB) is missing from my Observium install. I've been searching for a couple of hours and have not found a good starting point on how to add this MIB. I see that simply coping the MIB into the Observium install directory isn't the complete process. On your FAQ, the answer to "Vendor specific MIB" was very vague and was not very helpful. Can someone give me a brief run down of what I need to do to get this MIB working? What resources to read for more understanding of the MIB process. I'm sure someone's asked this question before, sorry if I'm repeating the question. Thank You,Nick

Problems with Checkpoint Gaia interface naming
by Hofer, Elmar (BITBW) 04 Oct '21

04 Oct '21

Dear List-Users, maybe someone can help me with my problem as it seems to happen quite often. Checkpoint uses different names in the ifDescr and ifNames field. The correct interface names are in the ifNames field. Now Observium uses the ifDescr field to display the interface names, because normally both fields have the same conntent. I'm lokking for an option to change this behaviar. It would be great to get an hint where to look for this problem to resolve. Thanks for your help. Yours Elmar

unending disk space growth?
by Adam Thompson 27 Sep '21

27 Sep '21

Since we last rebuilt our Observium instance in late 2019, we've noticed that it's chewing up disk space at a prodigious rate, that we didn't see before. We're seeing a steady ~300BG/month increase in storage needs. Observium, of course, monitors itself, and the line on the storage graph is a nearly-perfect slope (after adjusting for disk size increases). This came to my attention this morning (again), when we ran out of disk space (again) and I had to expand the volume (again) to continue operating. (So much for our alerting... oops.) We have added a few new devices, but not 1TB worth, and not consistently and constantly since late 2019. Since RRD files are - in theory - fixed-size, why does /opt/obvservium/rrd keep growing without bound? And how can I predict future growth? Will it ever stop? Help? Anyone? -Adam Adam Thompson Consultant, Infrastructure Services [1593169877849] 100 - 135 Innovation Drive Winnipeg, MB, R3T 6A8 (204) 977-6824 or 1-800-430-6404 (MB only) athompson(a)merlin.mb.ca<mailto:athompson@merlin.mb.ca> www.merlin.mb.ca<http://www.merlin.mb.ca/>

Changes to alarm checkers
by Daniel Johansson 23 Sep '21

23 Sep '21

Hi I see that some changes has been done to how you build the alarm checkers since a while back. Before you had to type everything out to match everything, devices, entitys and association,conditions. Now some of the things we have matched for and has worked no longer works. Also there are some stuff that I could match for before but not any londer. for example in a few cisco devices I run som links with macsec and I want to verify that the encryption is running and send an alert if not. This I can not do any more. see picture for the data I want to use: How can I still use this in observium 21.9.11575 (stable) ? ---- Regards Daniel

OpticalChannel no longer ignored
by Robert Williams 23 Sep '21

23 Sep '21

Hi! Overnight during the svn up to 11597 we have gained a couple of hundred 'ports' which are on various SmartOptics chassis (DCP and M series) of type "Optical Channel" There was already an exclusion for this type of interface (as the data polled is null anyway, even for 'Up' channels) but it now seems to be ignoring the exclusion and showing a couple of hundred extra (Down) ports now. The current config.php exclusions I've tried are: $config['bad_if_regexp'][] = "/opticalChannel/"; $config['bad_if'][] = "opticalChannel"; $config['bad_iftype'][] = "opticalChannel"; With no luck, although it is correctly importing them into the config, for example: Any ideas please?

Location Not Showing
by Njoroge, Joyce (Stadt Ulm) 21 Sep '21

Hallo, the snmp location configuration in the Cisco switches are separated by a comma. But in Observium, the comma is changed to 1%F, which I assume is the reason for the error. When I change the location menu type in the web UI to geocoded, it works okay but not for nested location despite setting the Nested Location split character to a comma . -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: observium <observium-bounces(a)observium.org> Im Auftrag von observium-request(a)observium.org Gesendet: Mittwoch, 15.

Is anyone using Observium to monitor Calix E7 GPON hardware?
by Richard Kuhns 15 Sep '21

15 Sep '21

Hello, We're in the processing of deploying a number of Calix E7 shelves and we'd really like to be able to monitor them using Observium. The problem is that a fairly full shelf can take a very long time (well over 5 mintues) to discover/poll. Our major concern is to be able to look at the uplink ports & the physical PON ports. More info would be nice, but it's not as important. If anyone is using Observium to monitor these devices and would be willing to share how you're doing it we'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks! -- Richard Kuhns <rjk(a)wintek.com> Systems Administrator Wintek Powered by Tipmont Main: 765-742-8428 Direct: 765-269-8541

Possibly Alert filter bug?
by Laszlo Nemeth 08 Sep '21

Hello We have some Check Point firewalls and if i make an Alert check to their memory usage and try to associate it to these firewalls, after the SAVE CHANGES the check doesn't shows any associated items even if i set the hostname directly or use the exact hardware type of it like the attached pictures. If i add the "Device Vendor in Check Point" it shows our other Check Point-made firewall but not that is in the attached picture (where the hardware is 15600 or the hostname is **fw01 . Is it a bug or just i made a mistake? Thanks Laszlo

Hi, SNMPv3 is more complex than SNMPv2 and requires all of the configuration parameters to match.

observium enterprise doesnt word after installation

03 Sep '21

We just had 1 year of subscription license observium Enterprise, ref: 4011610 We are completely new on this monitoring tools and really need your support for the installation. Our standard is debian 11, and we proceed on the manual installation as the script on the observim document doesn’t work (script automatic installation for debian 10) All the package are installed, observium seems to be installed following the guide (SNV username/password inserted) but *when we access the observium via GUI, the apache default page is shown instead of observium page* We already remove the apache (2.4) and then reinstalled and configure but the same result. Could you please help us on that or redirect me on the right support as we are turning around on this issue for a few weeks Thank you -- *Toky *

Probes from remote collectors
by Brad Bendy 27 Aug '21

27 Aug '21

Hi, I have added probes under a hosts that is a remote collector (ICMP for now) but I don't see that hosts actually sending the data. The master observium is doing the checks not the hosts the probe is tied to. When I go add probe I am choosing the other remote collector hosts and it shows up under that hosts when I go look at the hosts but those checks are still originating from the wrong place. I guess the "hosts" refers to which hosts would be used as the default %HOSTNAME% variable? If so, is there any way we can get these checks to launch from the collector and send data back? Thanks

monitor specific ports

Hey guys, i am trying to monitor two things in a port, if is operational up with “ ifOperStatus notequals up” but if I set it up to all my switches, it sends 2221 (literally) emails regarding all the ports available in my networks. How can I specify certain ports in certain devices. The other one is to be able to see if there is “traffic”, the scenario is we have a several mikrotik devices connected to DSL modems, but we need to see if the DSL service is up and running and get a notification if this port / service goes down.
