Disable email notification every 5 minutes
by Laszlo Nemeth 01 Feb '16

01 Feb '16

Hello I installed the latest CE (0.16.1.7533) and set up some alerts with email notification. It is working great, but now i get lot of mails in every 5 minutes from the same alerts. Can i set up that get email only when the alarm caused or resolved? So just 2 mails (or get mails in X minutes (e.g. In every 1 hors) not in every 5 minutes? Thanks! Laszlo

Hi, Quick graphs isn't showing the graph: [image: Imagem inline 1] [image: Imagem inline 2] This billing have 2 interfaces, which I disabled it in a few minutes ago: [image: Imagem inline 3][image: Imagem inline 4] But I have data for the last 24 hours, so why the Billing View graph is errored? Thank you. Regards, -- Eduardo Schoedler

Friendly names for devices/hosts and interfaces/ports
by Juan Asensio Sánchez 30 Jan '16

30 Jan '16

Hi, is there any option to add friendly names to hosts and interfaces? For example, our hostnames are normalized (lx0001), so I would like to show them in Observium as pro-jboss-1, px-mysql-3, dev-apache-6, etc. and see them in all places, next to the hostname, Is this possible? The same for host interfaces, por example, eth0 or eno16780032 to be shown as "service", "management", "backend", "backup", "storage", etc. We have a paid subscription, is there any kind of development included?

Images in alerts
by Anders Johansson 29 Jan '16

29 Jan '16

Hi, I've seen that alerts include an image, base encoded in the actual html file, but the image is never displayed. Now I'm using that Redmond build software to read mails, perhaps that's why it's not working? Anyone else with outlook who can see the graph included in the alerts? //Anders

Observium: Pre-auth and security questions
by Nate Mellendorf 29 Jan '16

29 Jan '16

Tom, Thank you for your input. This has been a bit of a learning experience for me. After researching and playing around with Apache, I was able to enable basic authentication using htpasswd. When I attempt to access Observium, I'm prompted for credentials as expected. Once I login with the creds I've configured, I land at the Observium form based authentication page. I'm trying to pass the username and password provided to htpasswd, and send them to Observium on the backend. As you noted earlier, It seems like I should be able to do this with the remote user variable. However, I can't seem to get it to work. I've listed my current virtual host config below. I enabled a2enmod headers and restarted Apache with no luck. I'm curious if you know if there's something I'm missing. I'll keep digging and working away at this, but I thought I'd provide an update to the mailing list. Other users may find it helpful if we sort it out.

This bypasses our login forms of course. I use SSO with Kerberos (AD) tickets, handled by mod_auth_kerb. We also have an http-auth backend, but I don't think that will do what you want it to. There's also a CAS backend, fairly new, I have no idea how to use it but I don't think it could work with your netscaler setup.

unset locations and missing location on drop down [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]
by Peter.Hine＠familycourt.gov.au 29 Jan '16

29 Jan '16

ver: CE 0.16.1.7533 The two attached pictures show that i have 11 devices with unset location, which is strange as i've not added any equipment. when clicking on the location UNSET, i get the second picture, which is "No devices found". the other thing to note is when selecting the location drop down, it only shows up to Townsville. I have one more, Wollongong. So it appears to be showing $count locations not $count+1 (+1 for the UNSET entry) Wollongong is not listed out of alpha order. Selecting Wollongong from the Locations menu correctly shows equipment in the results, but still doesn't list Wollongong in the Locations drop down.

Sensors changing precision/scale
by Michael 29 Jan '16

29 Jan '16

Has anybody encountered devices that change their scale/precision whenever they feel like it? We have some that now behave this way after a recent software upgrade. We think it's a vendor bug (in this instance, Bluecoat), but might be prudent to catch the changing precision value during the poll. Currently it looks like the precision is detected once and stored in the db. Then subsequent polling is only adjusted based on the original precision value. I've attached a graph and some walks showing the behaviour...

CE 0.16.1.7533 graph errors
by Roland Hill 29 Jan '16

29 Jan '16

Hi, Firstly, a big thanks to the Dev team for releasing the latest CE version; very much appreciated. Since the upgrade my "Custom traffic graphs" just have the "Error drawing graph" message. Secondly, I also note the SNMP Statistic graphs on all devices have the same message. As I just use Observium on my home network "because I can" none of this is critical for me but I'd thought I'd pass on my observations. Thanks again for the release (my DD-WRT devices now report correctly ;-)). -- Regards, Roland PGP Key 0xDA39319B = BCF0 1214 BAE9 5A3D 46FC 21A6 360D 9398 DA39 319B

Monitor OSX system. Problem with reported size for NFS share and monitor processes
by Henrik Cednert (Filmlance) 27 Jan '16

27 Jan '16

Hi there. Monitoring a osx "server" with observium. To get it to see the NF shares I added this to snmpd.conf: skipNFSInHostResources 0 storageUseNFS 2 This worked and I now see the shares. The large NAS is reported with wrong sizes though. Expected is this: df -ah |grep midskog filmddn:/ddnnas0/midskog 958Ti 193Ti 765Ti 21% 7479476 692520524 1% /Volumes/midskog Reported in observium is: Size: 208GB Used: 915GB Free: -707GB I actually think this could be an net-snmp bug in OSX but I'm not sure. When I snmpwalk locally I see this for that particular mount: HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageType.61 = OID: HOST-RESOURCES-TYPES::hrStorageFixedDisk HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageDescr.61 = STRING: /Volumes/midskog HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageAllocationUnits.61 = INTEGER: 512 Bytes HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageSize.61 = INTEGER: 436207616 HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageUsed.61 = INTEGER: 1920024576 Any one that had similar issues and found a solution? Next issue is that i try to monitor a process called 'nsd'. I have added it so snmpd.conf and when i walk the device locally I see it: filmserver01:snmp filmserver01$ snmpwalk -c public -v2c localhost UCD-SNMP-MIB::prTable UCD-SNMP-MIB::prIndex.1 = INTEGER: 1 UCD-SNMP-MIB::prNames.1 = STRING: nsd UCD-SNMP-MIB::prMin.1 = INTEGER: 0 UCD-SNMP-MIB::prMax.1 = INTEGER: 1 UCD-SNMP-MIB::prCount.1 = INTEGER: 1 UCD-SNMP-MIB::prErrorFlag.1 = INTEGER: noError(0) UCD-SNMP-MIB::prErrMessage.1 = STRING: UCD-SNMP-MIB::prErrFix.1 = INTEGER: noError(0) UCD-SNMP-MIB::prErrFixCmd.1 = STRING: But observium doesn't pick it up.

Display of VRF's defined on a particular device in addition to globally?
by Steve Costaras 27 Jan '16

27 Jan '16

Is there a way to display what VRF's are defined on a particular switch like you can vlans/ports/etc, in addition to globally? I'm running 0.16.17407. We have several thousand VRF's, being able to see what VRF's are actually defined on a device would really be nice opposed to having to log in each time when tracking things down. Since observium is obviously pulling this data to come up with the global view, it has to have it recorded. I think this would just be a display/parsing item? Is this something that may be included in a future version? Thanks. Steve

Adding a new graph
by David Pinkerton 26 Jan '16

26 Jan '16

Observium newbie... This maybe a question that has been answered a million time but I've not been able to find an answer. I have an Avaya 4524 switch that is not in a climate controlled environment. I wish to graph the temperature within Observium. I know the OID is 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.6.3.7.1.1.5 and the calibration is .5 degreee. ( ie. 70 = 35 degrees) I can view this in the switches GUI and by snmpwalk. I have confirmed Observium is using the correct MIB for the device. Can someone point me to a newbie guide. (My php skills are minimal)

Alerts ifType eq ethernetCsmacd
by Joey Stanford 26 Jan '16

26 Jan '16

Howdy, I wanted to thank everyone for the great support on this mailing list. I have another puzzler…the last one I hope. At the bottom of https://www.observium.org/docs/alerting_examples/ there are two alerts that rely on ifType eq ethernetCsmacd For some odd reason when I rebuild they don’t want to apply to any of my devices. As soon as I change that to “*” they bring in all the devices. I went out and pulled the data on the Mikrotik router ports and they are responding with this same ifType. I checked it vis snmpwalk and also on a test router using http://ip/device/device=1/tab=port/port=1/view=data/ I’ve tried spelling out equals, wrapping ethernetCsmacd in quotes (view=data says it’s a 14 character string), and a few other things but I haven’t found the right incantation. These two entries currently match the examples and the demo server. I’ve ensured that I have non-disabled ports and non-ignored ports that should be recognized. &debug=1 reveals SELECT `alert_status` FROM `alert_table` WHERE 1 AND `alert_test_id` = '7' AND (( `device_id` NOT IN (55) AND (`device_id` != ‘' AND `device_id` IS NOT NULL))) ORDER BY `device_id`, `alert_test_id`, `entity_type`, `entity_id` DESC (not there wasn’t a LIMIT 0,100 at the end of that select like on other alerts…aside from that this select is the same as the other alerts) Anyway that select returned 0 hits despite me having well over 100 active ports with that ifType. Any suggestions on how to debug this further? Thanks, Joey

Observium: Pre-auth and security questions
by Nate Mellendorf 25 Jan '16

25 Jan '16

Tom, I overlooked that setting and made the suggested change. However, Observium still seems to prompt for credentials after I sign in with basic auth. I changed the login mechanism to http-auth as well: $config['auth_mechanism'] = "http-auth"; I'll keep working on this, and report back if I can get it working. Thank you.

frontpage is great and all but can I have a second page?
by James Murty 25 Jan '16

25 Jan '16

I’m looking a using Observium to generate a number of metric specific dashboards for routers and switches I have around the country. The $config['frontpage']['minigraphs']['ids’] = “<id>,<metric>,<title>”; configuration looks like it’ll give me what I want but ideally I just have those minigraphs on a page by themselves. Is there a way to define a seconds page? i.e. $config[‘minigraphpage']['minigraphs']['ids’] = “<id>,<metric>,<title>”; and have that show on a second screen? - james

device to device links
by Joey Stanford 25 Jan '16

25 Jan '16

Hi, I ran across a graphing script on github that caught my eye. It reportedly graphs device to device links in Observium (sort of like cacti + Network Weathermap). It uses a table called obserium.links which I don’t have. Google hasn’t been able to give me any leads other than, of course, the developer. I’m wondering if anyone happens to know if it’s possible to associate device ports in this manner… e.g. Device 25, port 287 links to Device 37, port 460. Today I use cacti and weathermap for this. Thanks, Joey

MySQL Agent Innodb
by evo 25 Jan '16

25 Jan '16

Hi, i am a private user of the Observium CE, and I wanted to ask If the MySQL agent will already be fixed in the ne CE release, otherwise I would happily provide a patch for the agent I made just a moment ago when I updated my MariaDB Server to 10 and the innodb query stopped working[0], since it's removed with version 10 and version 5.6.1 of MySQL[1]. If you'd want me to do that, I also would rewrite the whole agent to use mysqli instead of mysql, since it's considered deprecated for some time now[2]. with kind regards Valentin [0]https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/xtradbinnodb-server-system-variables/#h… [1]https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=63383 [2]http://php.net/manual/de/migration55.deprecated.php

Arbor Network's MIBs
by Ryan, Spencer 23 Jan '16

Great to see Arbor MIB's getting updated in the SVN checkouts :) I don't monitor any of our own products, but I'm going to talk to the Peakflow guys and see if I can get access to some of the lab gear. We have at least one setup (not sure if it's TMS or SP) that gets about ~8Gb/s of anonymous traffic from a few ISPs. Should give me some useful data in Observium. Keep up the good work guys! *Spencer Ryan* | Senior Systems Administrator | sryan(a)arbor.net *Arbor Networks* +1.734.794.5033 (d) | +1.734.846.2053 (m) www.arbornetworks.com

Manually setting global temperature thresholds
by Joey Stanford 23 Jan '16

23 Jan '16

Hi, I have a bit of a puzzler and I’m hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I’m monitoring a number of Mikrotik devices. I’m unable to set the temperature thresholds on the device. They all seem to report different thresholds despite the fact that they are all spec’d at -30c to 70c. Instead of going into each device’s settings in Observium and making a custom threshold, is there any way for me to do it in the config file? or some other way using “os eq routeros”? Thanks, Joey

ASR9k fan failures not detected?
by Robert Williams 22 Jan '16

22 Jan '16

Hi, I've just noticed that fan failures on the ASR 9k are not detected by Observium. In fact, it seems have nothing at all under the 'status' tab? The 6500s have over 20 entries in there for "Fan - Fail" or "PSU - Fail" or "I'm not facing magnetic north - Fail" etc. but the ASR9000 have no status tab whatsoever. Reason for noticing this; is that we have a chassis which currently has a 'Major-Alarm' failure indicator LED on the RSP, due to a failed fan tray. Observium shows the device has being 'OK' and is not seeing either the Major alarm or the fan tray failure: canb-server[151]: %PLATFORM-CANB_SERVER-3-ALARM_INDICATION : Raise alarm from CBC in slot 0/FT0/SP, alarm code CBC_ALRM_FT_LED_RED_FAILED LED Information --------------------------------------------- R/S/I Modules LED Status 0/RSP0/* host Critical-Alarm Off host Major-Alarm On host Minor-Alarm Off host ACO Off host Fail Off FAN0 FAN1 FAN2 FAN3 FAN4 FAN5 FAN6 FAN7 FAN8 FAN9 FAN10 FAN11 FAN12 FAN13 0/FT0/* (Speed) 9900 9900 9870 9780 9870 9780 9780 10080 10080 9870 9990 9900 9810 9990 (fans are now OK again) Is this a case of Cisco not exporting any of this useful (and rather critical) information properly? Would be good to graph fan speeds if they are exported. Or are other people getting these OK and it's just us with the issue? Cheers!

ModbusTCP via SNMP Gateway. Possible to monitor in Observium?
by Henrik Cednert (Filmlance) 22 Jan '16

22 Jan '16

Hi I have a schneider tsxetg100 ethernet gateway that has a PowerLogic PM3250 attached to it. I can successfully monitor this in APC StruxureWare Data Center expert but trying to get away from that solution. Observium does find and see the tsxetg100 as a generic device but I don't see the PowerLogic attached to it. Is it possible to monitor a Modbus TCP device like this through the SNMP gateway?

Proxmox
by Cody Cook 22 Jan '16

22 Jan '16

Hi everyone, Two things about Proxmox and my usage with Observium: Upgraded all of my Proxmox boxes except one to 4.0 from 3.4. I use zfs for all the file systems. Since switching to Proxmox 4.0, appears that snmp no longer includes the zfs volumes automatically in the SNMP reply. :( Does anyone have some suggestions on automatically showing their zfs vols in SNMP? I read a manpage for snmpd.conf but only recognized the ignoreDisk screen to manually add. Some other site said begemotSnmpdModulePath."hostres" = /usr/lib/snmp_hostres.so would be useful if I was on FreeBSD, but I am using Debian :P Another question I had is that I was reading that there is the ability to query Proxmox for VMs. Neither my 3.4 or my 4.0 box show VMs. My enable_libvirt is 1 and I use lxc+ssh and openvz+ssh in the libvirt protocols option in the config (lxc for 4.0, openvz for 3.4). I don't see anything VM. I do have tab for VMs for my vmware esxi server though. The public key from Observium is in the authorized_keys file for each of my root users on each proxmox box. What am I missing here? net-snmp version: 5.7.2.1+dfsg-1 Cody

Location
by Tibor Marchyn 22 Jan '16

22 Jan '16

Hi all, I don't know if it's bug, but I have set locaton on alsmost all my devices, but let's say 1 day ago it wasn't. so few of them was as Unknown location and in devices menu I saw structure like "Unknown -> unset ; Prague -> address, ... " I have fixed location and started poller and discovery. Poller got new location for each device where it was unset. But in menu I still saw structure like Devices - Locations | |- <empty string> | |-Address1 (8 count) | |-<Prague> |-Address1 (55 count) And Address1 is same for both sections because devices in both sections have same sysLocation parameter. Also doesn't matter which menu I click, I always got list of all devices with this sysLocation parameter (63 count). Also I have in config these lines to replace location with exact address and it works fine. $config['location_map']['Prague'] = "my street, Prague, Czech Republic"; $config['location_map']['Nashville'] = "us street, Franklin, TN 12345"; Do you know how to force Observium to move fixed location devices under "Prague" town and show proper count of devices? Thanks

[Observium] /usr/local/www/observium/html/includes/graphs/sensor/capacity.inc.php
by Dirk-Willem van Gulik 22 Jan '16

Hmm - in -latest.tar.gz there seems to be a reference to /usr/local/www/observium/html/includes/graphs/sensor/capacity.inc.php from /usr/local/www/observium-latest/html/includes/graphs/graph.inc.php with Graph type: sensor, subtype: graph which is somehow caused by: includes/graphs/sensor/auth.inc.php not checking (unlike graph.inc.php) if such an include exists. So I wonder if that auth.inc should become: { if ($subtype == 'graph') { // Fix generic subtype $subtype = $sensor['sensor_class']; $possible_inc = $config['html_dir'] . "/includes/graphs/$type/$subtype.inc.php"; if (is_file($possible_inc)) { $graph_include = $possible_inc; }; } Dw.

Lost discover of the 'ports'.

We recently installed a new/parallel Observium (the old one had not been upgraded for years). The baseline is from http://www.observium.org/observium-community-latest.tar.gz as of today; with a new/fresh config.php. All fine & modern — except for the Ports on the various firewalls and switches not showing up automatically (Neither in ports or in settings; Port Properties). The ‘ports’ poller module is enable; as are POE and ports/port-stack in discovery. Any hint as where to fix/debug/dig as to understand why this is ? Thanks, Dw.

DirectoryIndex index.php

While at it - a small nit w.r.t to the otherwise cut-and-paste perfect: http://www.observium.org/docs/install_* pages — a config for apache DirectoryIndex index.php should be added; either global or, better, within the <Directory … blocks. As it is no longer part of most php default installs. Furthermore - if you want to be very safe on modern unixes - adding a: SetHandler application/x-httpd-php is not a bad idea; and otherwise harmless; as some now avoid this by default for security reasons.
