Host Description in Notifications
by Brian Downey 12 Dec '18

12 Dec '18

Hi All, Has anyone else experienced trouble getting the Description field (Host Properties -> Device Settings) to appear in notifications? Looking at the notification templates there is an "ENTITY_DESCRIPTION" field, but it doesn't seem to get used in our installation; i.e. the alerts simply show "Entity" and then "Condition" skipping it entirely. The descriptions are filled in and show in the Observium interface. As a shot in the dark I tried to customize the template per the README in the template directory & experimented with "DEVICE_DESCRIPTION", but also no bueno. -Brian

Hi list, Not a critical thing... Just wondered if anyone had done any config to get the nut-snmp "package" to be discovered in Observium. I'm running Observium CE 18.9.9420. I found a this on the net, https://raymondjdouglas.com/blog/2018/ups-monitoring/ which gave me hope that this would be possible. Many thanks. -- Regards, Roland

Observium client for windows?
by Connary, Scott 08 Dec '18

08 Dec '18

Observiums biggest weakness is its inability to auto-discover windows. LLDT needs to be integrated into the design. Or being able to piggy back off of Symantec or bigfix for data.

Dear Observium, I am running the professional edition of Observium. Due to snmp timeout, some devices are considered to be "down" intermittently.

Missing customers
by Eric W. Bates 26 Nov '18

26 Nov '18

I've labeled a number of our ports as "Cust: somebody", but not all appear on the Port --> Customers page. All the "Cust" labeled ports are on a pair of Junipers and most of them work, but a few are skipped (4 out of 11 are skipped). With debug enabled on the poller, I can see the 'ifalias' containing the Cust string: ifAlias.519 = Cust: WHRC I can also see various other OID's for interface ID 519: ifDescr.519 = ge-1/0/3 ifType.519 = ethernetCsmacd ifOperStatus.519 = up ifName.519 = ge-1/0/3 etc..

Change Custom Locations for All Entities

Hello Everyone, I need to change the custom location string of every device. Does anyone know of an easier way of doing this, other than through the web GUI? I tried changing to location column under the device_locations table but that doesn't work. My assumption is that I would just make changes somewhere in the Observium database but I can't seem to find where the custom location data is stored. Any Ideas?

A general questions on apps vs sniped extend ?
by Jonas Karlsson 22 Nov '18

22 Nov '18

Hi, I am new to observium and I am trying to learn the "system". Last week I developed a "app" that shows some status. The client side was super simple but it was somewhat cumbersome on the serverside (find all files to update and definitions etc). This week I tried to use snmpd extend to display the same information. This was super simple both on the client and on the server side (adda custom oid) and it works with alerts! My question is therefore in what circumstances are the "apps" useful? At least for my simple example I did not find any benefits of apps over using snmpd extend and a custom OID. Specially as configuring an app is more cumbersome (on the server side). -- Jonas Karlsson Senior Research Engineer Karlstad University SE-651 88 Karlstad, Sweden 📞 +46 54 700 15 64 📞 +46 70 672 06 20 💬 karlsson.karl.jonas 🗝 0x88765911B284F3A6

Alerting on Custom OID

Hi Guys, I am trying to build an alert for a value of a custom oid but I seem to be missing something - blame lack of coffee/sleep etc :) The OID is .1.3.6.1.4.1.13400.3.4.4041.1.1.2.1 and I would like to alert when it's below 300. I have created an Alert checker that has a test condition of the following: .1.3.6.1.4.1.13400.3.4.4041.1.1.2.1 lt 300 This doesn't appear to work as it always "OK" the alert even thou the value is +-230. I have even tried "AC Input 1 Voltage" lt 300 without luck. The name comes from the oid_name field in the oids table. How do you create an alert for a custom oid and how do I know what I can alert on, using a custom oid ? *Kind Regards,* *Pieter De Wit*

We use dskTable to fill in invalid data in hrStorageTable sometimes, but we don't outright collect data from dskTable. I seem to recall this is an issue with ZFS too, and switching to a later version of net-snmp fixes it. There are sadly no 5.8 (or even 5.7) packages for EL6 though (not that I could find!), so you would have to create one. Nothing really depends upon net-snmp, so no real risk in breaking anything! Once upon a time I had 5.6 packages for EL6 floating around from an old requirement, but I seem to have lost them. adam.

Changed 'smtp_host' address in config.php isn't being recognized
by Joe Brouillette 09 Nov '18

09 Nov '18

Hey all, we upgraded our Exchange server and now it has a new address. I changed the old address, xxx.xxx.xxx.102 to the new address, xxx.xxx.xxx.105 in config.php and Observium still sees the old address. Nov 6 12:00:19 Observe postfix/smtp[27371]: connect to 192.168.2.102[192.168.2.102]:25: No route to host The new address was also changed in /etc/postfix/main.cf. I've rebooted the server a couple of times but no joy. I must be missing something really simple here but I don't have a clue what it could be. Is there still another location where I need to change my new Exchange server's address?

Intentionally adding a duplicate device
by Jason Lixfeld 09 Nov '18

09 Nov '18

Hello, Previously I was able to add a duplicate entry for a device. At the time, it seemed like the easiest way to work around IOS-XR not being able to pull BGP session information inside a VRF from the default snmp context. Creating a separate SNMP context on the box for the VRF(s) in question, with a different community for each would let the duplicate entries poll the BGP session info from within whatever VRF that context included. Now, when I try to add a duplicate it fails due to pre-existing sysName, snmpEngineID and entPhysicalSerialNum. Is there a way to add duplicates anymore, or perhaps a different way to collect BGP session info from within VRF (in addition to the global table)? Thanks in advance.

Missing Ports
by Tim Schmidt 09 Nov '18

09 Nov '18

I've got a Peplink Balance 310 that I've put into Observium. It reads the device and picks up processor, memory, etc. For the ports though, it is only picking up 2 wan ports and one lan port. There are another 3 lan ports that it is not picking up. Peplink is a newer product for me so I'm not sure if I'm missing something or what. I'm guessing it's something to do with the EtherLike-MIB that is being used. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! Tim Schmidt

We startet to use a SensorProbe2 Plus from AKCP but unfortunatly it is not yet supported by observium. Anybody out there who uses it too and has it implemented? If not, I'm looking for ways to integrate it but unfortunatly I cannot find the right files to do that. Where are the definitions that contain the mappings from sysObjectID to the right OS and MIBS?
