Re: [Observium] Can't write new info to Observium

When using device search (Devices->All Devices), then selecting hardware type (for example DES-1210-26/ME), we can find 8 devices from our network, that's ok. But we have updated the firmware version of this specific device, and when trying to do the same search in Observium, It can't find the device with updated firmware. And this happened with every device we upgraded. Quick search bar finds the device without any problems. Could this be related to the caching update? Thank you

all VMs Removed - why ?
by Thoralf Freitag 22 Feb '17

22 Feb '17

Hi, is there any idea, why observium has removed all VMs from the ESXi Server, like this: 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564da96d-e3b0-b511-66cc-2a184a576652 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564d8984-0864-6b78-7d91-36f2c13e53d6 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564d4905-87d7-6fdf-bc72-753c916ef3c1 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564d2060-e2e4-9949-97a6-28cb5f02e801 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564d3421-27c8-04ea-7ef8-139af5ebcb5c 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564d18eb-bad5-0691-7acf-3cb24787c0c1 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564d523c-b392-e037-12e6-4c93b9dc82b1 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564dc378-b321-2b72-176f-09c8fc5a1116 1d 2h 3m Vm Virtual Machine deleted: vmware 564db385-e361-5d0a-3167-d9a416357692 ... The tab for virtual machines no longer appears ... . There was no change at the ESXi. VMWARE-SYSTEM-MIB and VMWARE-VMINFO-MIB are enabled. I restarted the snmp agant at the ESXi host, run poller.php again , but it changes nothing. Thanks for any suggestions. lg. TF

Can't write new info to Observium
by Karolis Birgėla 22 Feb '17

22 Feb '17

Hello all, never happened to me before, but Obsevium acts strangely lately for me. When trying to add a new device via web, it sucessfully adds it, but it's page appears to be missing. It says something like 'You entered a device which does not exist' or something similar. What is more, when I want to manually change device's description on the web, it says 'Device record updated'. But the info that I've written has not appeared. What could have caused this? I don't remember doing any changes to my Observium server, except doing an update. Version 17.2.8364 (stable) Everything else works as it should. Thank you

ASR9k RAM Changes
by Robert Williams 22 Feb '17

22 Feb '17

Hi, Have there just been some changes to the ASR9k RAM detection? Suddenly after the overnight svn up we are seeing this for all 9k chassis: [cid:image001.png@01D28C23.56E5F220] These 3 new items are in alarm. The “reserved” and “image” are filtered from all other devices by existing config.php – but obviously no brackets on these ones. $config['ignore_mempool_string'][] = '(reserved)'; $config['ignore_mempool_string'][] = '(image)'; However, the ‘processor’ one is actually wrong as it seems to be using the CPU0 usage but a strange maximum of 3.81GB instead of 7.81GB. I can’t filter this out because it will drop all ‘processor’ types. I remember something historic relating to this where the maximums were showing as around 4GB even though there is 8GB installed and someone (Adam?) found and sorted it. This may or may not be related though. Cheers! Robert Williams Custodian Data Centre Email: Robert(a)CustodianDC.com http://www.CustodianDC.com

Alert regeneration via cli?
by Michael 22 Feb '17

22 Feb '17

Is there a way to regenerate the alerts from the cli? We have some checks that alert based on port state, dependent on conditions within a port description. But that matching is only performed during the alert regeneration, not during polling. So if the port description gets updated, the alert still triggers based on the old condition match... I'm thinking of running a regen via cron on a regular basis to try and minimise the false positives. Unless somebody has a better way to achieve a similar outcome? Thanks, Michael

Poller wrapper history graphs not updating
by Jesper Frank Nemholt 21 Feb '17

21 Feb '17

Hi! I have moved an instance from a physical server to a VM by moving over the database & RRD files + Observium $HOME. All works except one minor thing : The poller wrapper history (/pollerlog/ page) graphs do not update anymore. Also the RRD files do not update their timestamp since I moved the files to the new VM. The poller discovery/timing part of the same page does work properly, so it's only the top two graphs missing (or rather the graphs are there, but no new data is being added). Any idea why ? /Jesper

using hardware sensors
by Thoralf Freitag 19 Feb '17

19 Feb '17

Dear Observium community, is there any description of using hardware sensors? I've following issue. I'm operating a HP server with an Ilom under Ubuntu Linux. I configured in the device properties for ipmi: IPMI Hostname (IP address of the Ilom), IPMI Username (as configured at Ilom) IPMI Password, IPMI Userlevel (User) IPMI Interface (IPMI v2.0 RMCP+LAN Interface). Observium rekognized the sensors for temperature und fan speed. I did the same at an other HP server (same type) which is running ESXi 6.5 (HP customized Image). The Sensors are shown in the vSphre-Client and ESXi empeded host client UI. But for this host, Observium does not rekognize the sensors. How can this be explained ? Thanks. Lg. TF

Group with 500+ devices
by Karolis Birgėla 19 Feb '17

19 Feb '17

Hi, I have a problem with device classification to specific groups. We currently have 750 devices added in our network. Some users can only have access to specific devices, which led us to creating a group associated with them. The problem is, that more than 500 devices belong to the group, and when we attach this group to a user, it lags like hell. The main window of Observium loads slowly, and the search works very slow. I dont think that the server is incapable of proccesing this quickly It's a server with 80gb of ram, 24core cpu. By the way, admin accounts work perfectly . Is this a bug? Or something needs to be done in order? Let me know, thank you.

Ruckus Virtual SmartZone (vSZ) controller
by Philippe Laurent 17 Feb '17

17 Feb '17

It seems that either the Ruckus MIB changed, or my expectation of function is different than reality. We run the Ruckus Virtual SmartZone (vSZ) to control our AP's. At the moment, Observium provides just the local attributes (CPU, NIC, RAM, Disk) of the virtual machine, but it was my impression that I was supposed to get a much larger subset of data regarding AP's, configured WLANS, clients and traffic, etc. It appears in the MIB properties that the data should be available, but perhaps there's been a change of MIB from the Ruckus side (in which case I would also like to pay for getting that updated). Attached is a screenshot of the Device MIBs and SNMP errors as reported by Observium. If you require something else, please let me know. I am using the most recent software version for both vSZ and the APs (R600). Observium is updated from SVN daily(ish). If this requires more heavy lifting or outside of the scope, then please contact me offline for pricing and timeline, and I'll sponsor the additions. Philippe [image: Inline image 1]

Generate an BGP group with only like clue the interface description?

17 Feb '17

Hello, We would like create alert on BGP sessions only on private peering. The only clue for detected these BGP sessions is the description on interface. But Observium seems don't can link session<->network ports. I don't find easy solution to match these sessions. Anybody have an idea? Observium seems to be able link one IP to network port. Is it possible for you add functionality to link BGP sessions (with their IP) to network port too? We could do a really great monitoring and see BGP sessions linked to the network port (on new tab?) :-) Johann

Custom OID and New Sensors
by Ing. Andrés Gallo 16 Feb '17

16 Feb '17

Hi there Just installed the Observium 17.2.8353 to monitor our network Great job! I need to handle a couple of issues: 1. Once I did Custom OID to monitor, How Can I set threshold or alarm limit to get an alert? For example, graphing fuel level, raise an alert on low value. 2. Some devices are recognized by the system-i.e. EATON SC Controller-, but sensors -voltage, current, power, etc.- are not. I can write a sensor.inc.php -same way as others into includes/discovery/sensors dir- but even with the debug option in command line, cant´t get it working. Any clue? Couldnt find the list archive ( mybe solved there, but....) link is broken Regards Andres.-

Map marker icon size
by Ed Iwanski 15 Feb '17

15 Feb '17

We are adding quite a few locations to our install and after adding the first batch our front page map ends up with quite a bit of overlap while we have many more to add. It got me thinking if we could just make the individual markers smaller it would work better for us. Looking into the settings it seems there was an option for: $config['frontpage']['map']['dotsize'] = 10; Changing this seems to have no effect and a quick glance it does not seem to be used anymore Doing a little more digging in the code it looks like the html/includes/map/leaflet.inc.php has options defined to add the svg icons with static sizes with the following: var icons = { ok: L.icon({ iconUrl: 'images/svg/ok.svg', popupAnchor: [0, 16], iconSize: [24, 24] // size of the icon }), alert: L.icon({ iconUrl: 'images/svg/high_priority.svg', popupAnchor: [0, 12], iconSize: [32, 32] // size of the icon }), }; It seems just changing the values in iconSize: [X,Y] accomplishes what we would like to do to make the marker size a bit smaller and the maps to be more clear with many more sites added. Maybe 2 new example variables to allow a little further map customization? $config['frontpage']['map']['markeroksize'] = <value>; $config['frontpage']['map']['markeralertsize'] = <value>; Thanks, Ed

Selectively enable polling fdb-table
by Ulrik Ivers 10 Feb '17

Hi, We have globally disabled polling fdb-table, i.e in in config.php we have $config['poller_modules']['fdb-table'] = 0; Now we'd like to selectively ENABLE polling of the fdb-table, but only on a subset of devices. Is there a way to do this? From what I can figure out it's only possible to do it the other way around, that is enable fdb-table polling GLOBALLY and then device by device DISBALE polling. But we'd like to have polling OFF by default and then selectively enable it on a few devices. Any ideas?

Hi, Recently I noticed that Observium do collect information about network storage devices. There is a way to collect information about their volumes too? And how about alerts? :) Thank you. Regards, -- Eduardo Schoedler

network weathermap
by Johns, Daniel (GPK) 09 Feb '17

09 Feb '17

Is anyone familiar with this? http://blog.best-practice.se/2014/07/using-php-weathermap-with-observium.ht… Does it still work with the subscription version of Observium? Im having trouble making it work. I followed the steps to a T but... no luck. I even made a network map with 2 devices but I'm not sure that's even correct because the weather maps never load. It goes back to the regular index.php page Thanks for any tips -Daniel

Setting default sensor limits
by Dan Letkeman 09 Feb '17

09 Feb '17

Just wondering what the best way is to set the default sensor limits? For example, I would like to set the battery temperature sensor max to 50C for all of our UPS units instead of the current default of 91.36C which would basically mean that the ups has melted into the floor.

We have many Ricoh printers and copiers. Because SNMP is horrible on these devices I am unable to set the System Name (sysName). Is there a way to set this manually in Observium?

Customer's web portal for Observium
by Sophanith Chhom 09 Feb '17

09 Feb '17

Hi All, Is there an additional plugin for managing user and group for Observium? Or anywhere we can modify for user customer's portal purpose? Eg: For customer web accessing, we only provide normal user permission applied with limitted device or port access for that customer only and it should not display Overview, Grouping, Weathermap, Routing module.... anywhere we can disable that kind of module to accomplish? We just want a normal user see only device and port are allowed only. Please check as bellow picture Can we just disable these red box for normal user accessing? [image: Inline image 1] Thanks for your help.

AD Ldap Authentication Debug
by Dan Letkeman 08 Feb '17

08 Feb '17

Hello, I'm trying to setup AD Ldap authentication and getting nowhere. I'm running observium version 17.1.8318 and PHP 7.0.15. I have ldap enabled and I have verified that with phpinfo. When I try to login with these settings in my config.php it just goes back to the login page with no failed login message or any other notice. I have tried to use observium.domain.com/debug/ but it does the same thing. $config['auth_ldap_binddn'] = "cn=ldapproxy,cn=Users,dc=domain,dc=ca"; $config['auth_ldap_bindpw'] = "password"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['uid'] = "sAMAccountName"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['uidNumber'] = "objectSid"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['cn'] = "name"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['dn'] = "distinguishedname"; $config['auth_ldap_objectclass'] = "person"; $config['auth_ldap_version'] = 3; $config['auth_ldap_server'] = "ldap.domain.ca"; $config['auth_ldap_port'] = 389; $config['auth_ldap_starttls'] = FALSE; $config['auth_ldap_prefix'] = "CN="; $config['auth_ldap_suffix'] = ",DC=domain,DC=ca"; $config['auth_ldap_group'] = array("CN=Domain Admins,OU=Users,DC=domain,DC= ca"); $config['auth_ldap_groupbase'] = "OU=Users,DC=domain,DC=ca"; $config['auth_ldap_groupmembertype'] = "fulldn"; $config['auth_ldap_groupmemberattr'] = "member"; unset($config['auth_ldap_groups']); $config['auth_ldap_groups']['CN=Domain Admins,OU=Users,DC=domain,DC=Ca']['level'] = 10; $config['auth_ldap_groups']['CN=Domain Users,OU=Users,DC=domain,DC=Ca']['level'] = 1; Is there a log somewhere that shows whats happening? Also I am unable to start httpd on centos7 with these virtual host settings as per the installation manual: <VirtualHost *> DocumentRoot /opt/observium/html/ ServerName observium.domain.ca CustomLog /opt/observium/logs/access_log combined ErrorLog /opt/observium/logs/error_log <Directory "/opt/observium/html/"> AllowOverride All Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews Require all granted </Directory> </VirtualHost> Thee customlog and errorlog lines have to be commented out for the server to start. Can anyone verify that those log settings work on centos7? Perhaps I have some kind of rights issues with the files? Thanks, Dan.

I set up syslogging then creating the alert check looking for /FULL\ to\ DOWN/ for cisco i manually triggered the events in my network on a unused path and the syslog messages came in but i didn't get any triggers on the alert checkers. Is there something wrong with my setup or alert checks? Where would I start looking?
