Re: [Observium] Unix-Agent Not Working
by Cameron Murray 15 Apr '16

Hi Ron Thanks for the reply however the - was meant to be the _ (was going by memory when i wrote yhe email) and went through those instructions a number of times. When I tried to execute ./bind locally all but blank... Telnetung the server on the port returns alot of data however I could not see anything bind related however not 100% on what it'd going to display. Sent from my Samsung GALAXY S4 on the Telstra mobile network -------- Original message -------- From: Ron Marosko <ron(a)rjr-services.com> Date: 15/04/2016 9:04 pm (GMT+10:00) To: 'Observium Network Observation System' <observium(a)observium.org> Subject: Re: [Observium] Unix-Agent Not Working You should have been following the instructions located here: http://observium.org/docs/unix_agent/ Those are the instructions I follow, and have the unix agent working quite wonderfully. Based on what you described, “placing the Observium-agent and bind application in /usr/lib/Observium-agent/local” it would seem you didn’t follow the correct installation document, as “observium_agent” is to be installed in /usr/bin. You also don’t indicate whether you did the appropriate components with xinetd, that would similarly cause issues. Finally, inside the device properties on your observium server, you need to indicate the telnet port (36602) on the appropriate agent page, as well as enable the unix_agent function on the modules page. It’s really a much better idea to enable that only on a device-by-device basis as opposed to global enablement in the config.php file. Also, it’s worth changing directly to the /usr/lib/observium_agent/local directory and executing each script manually, this will determine if all the dependencies for each script are actually installed. For example, I use the ntpd monitoring script on my servers, and I don’t always have php installed on every server… so when I run the ./ntpd script, it kicks out an error that php isn’t installed. Duh, “apt-get php5-cli”, then I run the ntpd script again, and now I have valid data. I personally use nsd and unbound for authoritative and client lookups respectively instead of bind, so don’t have any experience with that bind script specifically. Maybe also try some of the other information gathering modules (dpkg, hddtemp, raspberrypi, etc., as appropriate) and see if those are also gathering information and being displayed on the server information page. …Ron From: observium [mailto:observium-bounces@observium.org] On Behalf Of Cameron Murray Sent: Thursday, April 14, 2016 11:29 PM To: Observium Network Observation System Subject: [Observium] Unix-Agent Not Working Guys, We’ve installed the Unix-Agent today on a DNS server in the hope of have Observium monitor bind.

(Not)Ignored Ports
by Robert Williams 15 Apr '16

15 Apr '16

Hi, It looks like ignored ports are suddenly being included in the 'Device Status Notifications' for Errors. We have quite a few devices which have 'expected' errors (half-duplex IP-PDUs etc.) so are now being spammed with error'ed ports: They _do_ disappear if I select the device itself to be ignored, but they used to be silenced just by setting the 'Alerts' column to 'No'. Is this an error - or is there now an intentional new variable which I need to set in config.php to ignore them? Cheers guys!

Cisco Wireless Controller separate graphs for individual SSID's
by Gumilar Siegfried 14 Apr '16

14 Apr '16

Hi guys, I am using the professional edition of Observium. Everything works fine but I'm stuck at a certain point. Let me explain more exactly. We added a Cisco Wireless Controller (AIR-CT5508-K9) to observium. On this Cisco device there are some SSID's. So in Observium you can see under Cisco WC - Graphs - Wireless ONE GRAPH for the wireless clients traffic (for all SSID's). Is there a way to display the traffic graph separately for individual SSID's? The Wireless Controller delivers the OID's for the SSID's, but the question is how to implement them. Siegfried

Monitor IPMI availability
by Vanya Golomehova 14 Apr '16

14 Apr '16

Hello! I'm wondering if there is a way to monitor the presence / availability of the IPMI module in Observium. Most if the servers are SuperMicro. I'm able to poll temperatures, fan speed and etc. through IPMI, but is there a way to receive an alert when IPMI module is not reachable (client often remove the cable to the interface by mistake, or some network issue) the same as I receive alerts for server down, port down. If there is no way, I will appreciate if someone suggest a workaround... -- Regards, Vanya Golomehova Technical support engineer at Extreme Broadband Services

Adding an OS
by David Snowdon 13 Apr '16

13 Apr '16

Dear Observium, My apologies if this is not posted to the right place— this question must have been covered many times but the archives of this list don’t seem to be accessible. I am looking for how to add an OS for our devices ( https://www.metamako.com ). I found this documentation ( http://www.observium.org/docs/developing/add_os/ <http://www.observium.org/docs/developing/add_os/> ) but it seems to be out of date, since there doesn’t appear to be an includes/definitions/os.inc.php file. There’s a definitions.dat file, but this is a binary. Any assistance would be much appreciated. Do I need to be paid up for the subscription edition to make contributions? This seems backward as we would be able to promote Observium for use by our customers. Cheers, David Snowdon CTO, Metamako

Issue wih temperature reporting from Dell 7000 series switch
by Ric Davis 12 Apr '16

12 Apr '16

Hi All There's a small problem with temperature reporting from the Dell 7000 (specifically 7048 in this case) switch. The device page reports the stack unit internal temperature multiple times (I'd estimate >100), none of which look correct: I've copied and pasted the top and bottom of the reports, to show the way three of them read 0. The current firmware version is 5.1.8.2 - It was also present on the previous version of switch firmware we were running (from memory something like 5.1.0.1). I'd presume this is the result of the Dell SNMP response, but is there any kind of a workaround available? The devices web interface does report at least plausible temperature values, so it's unlikely to be a failing sensor. This is on the current CE, but was also present on the previous CE. The device event log has "3h 46m 57s Sensor deleted: temperature fastpath-boxservices-private-mib boxServicesStackTempSensorTemperature.1.1604 Stack Unit Internal Temperature 3h 46m 57s Sensor deleted: temperature fastpath-boxservices-private-mib boxServicesStackTempSensorTemperature.1.1603 Stack Unit Internal Temperature 3h 46m 57s Sensor deleted: temperature fastpath-boxservices-private-mib boxServicesStackTempSensorTemperature.1.1602 Stack Unit Internal Temperature 3h 46m 57s Sensor deleted: temperature fastpath-boxservices-private-mib boxServicesStackTempSensorTemperature.1.1601 Stack Unit Internal Temperature 3h 46m 57s Sensor deleted: temperature fastpath-boxservices-private-mib boxServicesStackTempSensorTemperature.1.1600 Stack Unit Internal Temperature 3h 46m 57s Sensor deleted: temperature fastpath-boxservices-private-mib boxServicesStackTempSensorTemperature.1.1599 Stack Unit Internal Temperature 3h 46m 57s Stack Unit Internal Temperature <http://observium/device/device=11/tab=health/metric=temperature/id=17570/> Sensor added: temperature fastpath-boxservices-private-mib boxServicesStackTempSensorTemperature.1.1772 Stack Unit Internal Temperature 3h 46m 57s Stack Unit Internal Temperature <http://observium/device/device=11/tab=health/metric=temperature/id=17569/> Sensor added: temperature fastpath-boxservices-private-mib boxServicesStackTempSensorTemperature.1.1771 Stack Unit Internal Temperature 3h 46m 57s Stack Unit Internal Temperature <http://observium/device/device=11/tab=health/metric=temperature/id=17568/> Sensor added: temperature fastpath-boxservices-private-mib boxServicesStackTempSensorTemperature.1.1770 Stack Unit Internal Temperature 3h 46m 57s Stack Unit Internal Temperature <http://observium/device/device=11/tab=health/metric=temperature/id=17567/> Sensor added: temperature fastpath-boxservices-private-mib boxServicesStackTempSensorTemperature.1.1769 Stack Unit Internal Temperature 3h 46m 57s Stack Unit Internal Temperature <http://observium/device/device=11/tab=health/metric=temperature/id=17566/> Sensor added: temperature fastpath-boxservices-private-mib boxServicesStackTempSensorTemperature.1.1768 Stack Unit Internal Temperature 3h 46m 57s Stack Unit Internal Temperature <http://observium/device/device=11/tab=health/metric=temperature/id=17565/> Sensor added: temperature fastpath-boxservices-private-mib boxServicesStackTempSensorTemperature.1.1767 Stack Unit Internal Temperature [image: Inline images 1] [image: Inline images 2] -- Ric

Run Alerts Checks

APC PDU alert question
by Laszlo Nemeth 11 Apr '16

11 Apr '16

Hello I have some APC PDU with two lines of plugs. The name of the first row of plugs are: "Bank 1" and the second row's name is Bank 2. The two banks have a summarized current value, this is the "Bank Total". I would like to create an alert for the Bank 1 and Bank 2 (if the current ge 7 send an alert) but not for Bank Total. Device Entity Status Checked Changed Alerted pdu05 Bank 2 OK 2m 40s 14m 34s Never pdu05 Bank 1 OK 2m 40s 14m 34s Never pdu05 Bank Total OK 2m 40s 14m 35s Never pdu06 Bank 2 OK 2m 52s 14m 26s Never pdu06 Bank 1 OK 2m 52s 14m 26s Never pdu06 Bank Total OK 2m 52s 14m 26s Never If I add an alert where “Check conditions” is "sensor_value ge 7” and Associations “Device Match” is “hostname match pdu0*” it will be true for the Bank Total Entity too. There is any solution for alerting only for the Bank 1 and Bank2? Thanks Laszlo

Syslog timestamps
by Jason Vanlandingham 10 Apr '16

10 Apr '16

When I look at a device's page, the syslog entries shown below are odd... Things that just happened will say "5h 20s". Hovering the mouse pointer over them shows the correct time on the entry. The Observium server and client I'm on both have the correct time. Are those time marks done using GMT? (I'm on Central DST, so that would make sense.) Can that be changed?

snmp.conf change for r7728 and up on Debian/Ubuntu
by Tom Laermans 07 Apr '16

07 Apr '16

Hi all, Due to a MIB move, if you svn up to the latest release, you might encounter silly output from the SNMP library in PHP. This is the case if you have the php5-snmp module installed, and have added our mib directory to /etc/snmp/snmp.conf. To fix this, replace: mibdirs /opt/observium/mibs by mibdirs /opt/observium/mibs:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp I've updated the install docs to reflect this. Tom

Hy Guys, thanks to all your feedback.

Question Regarding CISCO and TX Discards
by Richard Müller 07 Apr '16

07 Apr '16

Hy Observium Community I have a router, which is only accessible via SNMP from my company, and it shows up some TX-Discards Just look on this picture: [cid:image001.png@01D1903E.84B547A0] Unfortunately the company who is administering the Router tells me that they do not see any error. I really do not have a clue which kind of Tx Discards these are and how they can be shown in CLI.

Monitoring job status
by Mark Creamer 07 Apr '16

07 Apr '16

Hi, is there a way within Observium to monitor a file system to check that a new file appears at a given time, or alternatively to monitor a log for an entry to appear? The idea is, there are some scheduled tasks running on a Linux server. We can have each task do something on completion, like write a file somewhere, write to a log, post to a database, etc. We want to see if Observium can watch for something like that and alert if it doesn't occur. Method is completely undecided at this point so any ideas are much appreciated. Thanks, -- Mark

Cisco WS-C3850-48P
by Christopher N Callison 05 Apr '16

05 Apr '16

I have a pair of Cisco 3850 switches (stacked) that I'm using as a core for our relatively small office. I have added them to my Observium system and the normal Cisco L2 & L3 interfaces have been detected and are now in monitoring but the wireless features of the devices are not showing up. I would like to graph the number of active users for each WLAN. I see from Cisco's site (ftp://ftp.cisco.com/pub/mibs/supportlists/cat3850/cat3850-supportlist.html) , that there are a few wireless-oriented MIBs that are supported, but I don't see them in the list of MIBs on my Observium server. AIRESPACE-WIRELESS-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-IDS-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-AP-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-CCX-RM-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-CLIENT-ROAMING-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-DOT11-CCX-CLIENT-DIAG-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-DOT11-CCX-CLIENT-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-DOT11-CLIENT-CCX-REPORTS-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-DOT11-CLIENT-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-DOT11-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-DOWNLOAD-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-LINKTEST-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-MFP-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-MOBILITY-EXT-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-QOS-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-REAP-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-ROGUE-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-RRM-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-SI-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-TSM-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-WLAN-MIB CISCO-LWAPP-WLAN-SECURITY-MIB Is there a procedure for configuring the devices to start using the new MIBs once they have been copied to the appropriate directory or do I need to play around with a SNMP walker to find them myself?

SNMP Trap Import
by Kevin Wormington 04 Apr '16

04 Apr '16

Hi, I’m new to Observium (paid version) and am working toward replacing Zabbix completely with it. I see that there is some old/unsupported support for importing LinkUp/LinkDown traps from snmptt in snmptrap.php. I’m going to be testing it out in the next few days and making any required fixes to get it going with current versions. I have also though about implementing some type of mechanism to log/alert on various traps other than LinkUp/LinkDown such as ColdStart, etc. I am curious if there is any interest in that from other users and any input on how people would like to see it implemented and if anyone else is currently using it. Thanks, Kevin

Missing TenGigabit interfaces on Cisco WC-C4900M
by Per Jorgensen 04 Apr '16

04 Apr '16

Hi all First of all thank to the team of developer for making this program, and making it better and better everyday, love the look and ease of use. But I have run into a problem with a Tengigabit ethernet device I newly added into my Observium v. 0.12.8.3360. it seems that every thing get detected alright, except all the TenGigabitEthernet, interfaces dont show up anywhere in Observium, all other interfaces on that device gets detectet allright, and I can see the interfaces in the ports tab on the device, but not the TenGengigabit interfaces. btw: the device is a Cisco WS-C4900M Is that because Cisco WS-C4900M is not a supported device , or should I do some config changes to get TenGigabitEthernet to work ? if the WC-C4900M is not supported, how can I then contribute with information on the device , and help to then this device supported ? Best Regards Per Jorgensen

How to add support for new device/type?
by Jens Bürger 03 Apr '16

03 Apr '16

Hello everyone, first: the mailing list archive is somehow not online: http://postman.memetic.org/pipermail/observium/ So I couldn’t have look at the archive to see if my question was answered recently. I would like to add support for my PBX (Siemens HiPath 3000 series, model 3800) to Observium. There this a file containing MIBs available and someone also did preliminary support for Nagios: https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/Hardware/Network-Gear/Siemens… So I had a look at this site: http://www.observium.org/docs/developing/add_os/ The file os.inc.php doesn’t exist, but a definitions.dat instead which is a binary file. So I wonder where to start i.e. getting some kind of device template I can start with? Thanks a lot, Jens

switchmap re: host<-->port L2/L3 matrix
by Rob VanHooren 02 Apr '16

02 Apr '16

indeed, it would be quite handy to have information about the end hosts. obviously not a full scrape of them for monitoring, but that they exist, what they are, and where. ideally, there could be some observium-style SPoG embrace of Pete Siemsen’s switchmap ( https://sourceforge.net/projects/switchmap/ ) his is a wonderfully useful tool in terms of how much information it packs onto one page, but visually … it’s rather archaic. $0.02 R. > On Apr 2, 2016, at 02:47, observium-request(a)observium.org wrote: > >> Adam / Tom / Justin / David /etc/ >> >> {various discussion about port matrix L2 L3 presentation etc…} >>

patch: show ip associated with mac
by Justin Cinkelj 02 Apr '16

02 Apr '16

Hi I here and there search for IP address belonging to certain MAC address. Below is a tiny patch to show that info in observium. Data is read from arpwatch datafile (path to datafile is set in config.php): // enable arpwatch $config['arpwatch']['datafile'] = "/var/lib/arpwatch/arp.dat"; And once IP is known, reverse DNS name is informative too. Patch acceptable for inclusion?
