Port Group aggregate graphs refresh
by Marian Rychtecky 04 Feb '23

04 Feb '23

Hi all, I have a question (or maybe a feature request). Can I automatically refresh aggregated graphs based on Port Group? Let's say I have a Port Group based on ifAlias regexp. I can manually create an aggregated graph of it - bits, broadcasts, or discards. Then use created graph in the dashboard. The problem is a number of items in Port Group are changing over time, and I need to refresh these aggregated graphs manually. That means performing these steps 1) Ports -> Groups -> <My group name> 2) Aggregate Graphs -> Bits 3) Click on graph -> Add to the Dashboard 4) Repeat for all Aggregated graphs (Bits, Broadcasts, Multicasts, Discards) 5) delete old Aggregated graphs from the dashboard 6) position newly added graphs (with the actual number of ports) It would be very handful to have a script refreshing aggregated graphs automatically.

Error "Creation Failed" when Adding Port Groups
by Justin Radke 01 Feb '23

01 Feb '23

Goal: Attempting to make “aggregate” graphs by calculating port bandwidth from multiple devices. For example, a graph that shows the total bandwidth of IP transit or IXP Peering ports that are not in LAG groups on Cisco gear. Problem Statement: When creating a “Group” of ports I get an error in red that says “Creation Failed: Unknown action requested.” Problem Description: 1. Click “Create New Group” in the GUI 2. Select Entity Type “Port” 3. Give group name of “TestGroup1” 4. Select “Device” from the dropdown, default to “in” and select a Cisco router in the dropdown that is already present and working in Observium 5. Click “Add rule” select “AND” choose “Port ifIndex” “equals” enter in the field the ifindex a. I’ve also tried adding just one or even multiple rules with “OR’s” results in this message b. I’ve also tried adding the port with “Port ID”, “Port ifDescr”, “Port ifName” and others all result in this failure message c. I’m getting the port_id, ifindex, ifName, etc from the “Data” tab when viewing a Port of the Cisco in Observium 6. Click the bottom right, green “Add Group” and receive the error message: “Creation Failed: Unknown action requested.” Can someone direct me to how to make such graphs? And/or explain what I might be doing wrong that I cannot create Port Groups?

Still cannot log onto the web console
by Matthew Cotter 30 Jan '23

30 Jan '23

Hi Adam, A long time ago, I sent an email saying I could not log onto the Observium website. It appears to be still working when I look at the log file which is HUGE, 1781351488 in size. I was looking at the housekeeping option but when I was poking around in the terminal, I see there is cron.daily, cron.weekly, cron.monthly. no cron.d How can I run this on the fly to clean up that file? I could not figure that out. my Linux is amateur at best. I can navigate around, and edit files, but no coding experience. Please help.. I have made many changes to our network and I need to ger this so we can log in and I need to update the devices. Thank you!

Forigate with virtual interfaces only
by Marian Rychtecky 26 Jan '23

26 Jan '23

Hi all, I have a short question: Does each device's main "traffic graph" (aggregated traffic in the overview) only show physical interfaces? Today I installed FG-200F with all interfaces as LAG (LAN and WAN is the LAG interface of 2 physical interfaces). Unfortunately, I cannot see traffic from LAG interfaces counted in total traffic. The main graph looks like traffic is aggregated per physical interface only. Any solution for this, please? BTW - Fortigate is not showing physical interfaces when they are part of LAG.

Syslog host matching with multiple devices and 1 public IP
by mp＠matt-parkinson.co.uk 25 Jan '23

25 Jan '23

Hi, We have recently started using the syslog part of Observium and for the most part it works well where we have multiple public IP's logs are coming from or for places where we have VPN's and can reach devices on their local IP's. We are running into a problem however when we have multiple devices pushing their syslog's to us over a WAN link and they come from the same public IP. We're using the %fromhost% variable in the configuration and all logs seem to end up with the first device that we have set in /etc/hosts to match the public IP. We've tried changing the %fromhost% to %hostname% instead thinking it would use the hostname within the log entry but unfortunately that didn't work either. I've had a look at the documentation on how to do manual matching but I don't think that would help here either as it's only going to match the public IP. Has anyone come up against this before and know if there is a way to resolve it or will I need to create VPN's to each of those sites so we can push the logs over their private IP's instead?

Values keep flapping
by Marian Rychtecky 21 Jan '23

21 Jan '23

Hi all, I'm wondering why a lot of our device's values keep flapping. It's outside of the discovery schedule. Therefore I guess it's something with SNMP timers. It happens on all devices randomly. Does anyone have similar issues? Thank you, Marian -- Marian Rychtecký mr(a)nix.cz Phone +420 724 397 441 NIX.CZ z.s.p.o. Americká 23, Praha 2 130 52 Czech Republic http://www.nix.cz

The Alert checker sends messages if pooled get null for a port parameters
by Vasiliy Moroz 04 Jan '23

04 Jan '23

Hello Community, Was there anyone who had an issue and could give me advice on how to work around my case described in the attached file ? Briefly: I set an alert checker, it checks the port state "ifOperStatus equals down" wait delay time and sends me the message. The port's operational status is constantly down for a long time. Sometimes the checker get NULL for port parameters so as ifOperStatus is NULL the checker defines it is not equals to "down" and sends me "false" message "Clear" The next check time the checker gets real state ifOperStatus equals down and as Alert was cleared last time so checker creates a new alert and sends me notification. Every time the checker gets null I am getting Clear then Alert notification. If I could operate with the previous state at the checker condition rule I would be set to create an alert only if the previous state was "up" AND the state for now is "down". [image: image.png]

[cid:image001.jpg@01D91381.3E32DD10] From the ups: [cid:image002.jpg@01D91381.3E32DD10] And [cid:image003.jpg@01D91381.3E32DD10] How can we tell if the issue is with the UPS not reporting properly, or Observium not recognizing? I have attached some snmp walks. Thanks Tony Guadagno O +1 585 577 1003 C +1 585 703 6700 E tonyg(a)guadagnoconsulting.com<mailto:tonyg@guadagnoconsulting.com> [cid:image001.jpg@01D84DD6.FC9912E0]

New requirement ¿posibble?
by Arnoldo Vidal Bravo 03 Dec '22

03 Dec '22

Our team handles requests with a ticket system. When a device does not respond... an alert is sent by email... then when the device starts working again a new email is sent with the subject recovery. Now our boss needs a new ticket to be generated only when a device doesn't respond, not when it works again. ¿it is possible? -- Saluda cordialmente

Group Email Alerts
by Luis Londoño 23 Nov '22

23 Nov '22

Is there a way to group email alerts so there is not an email alert for every sensor that might go down at the same time? For example multiple fans on a server might show as an alert if the device itself is not responding

Minimum OID view on Cisco CPE to be pollable by Observium?
by Adam Thompson 23 Nov '22

23 Nov '22

Hi, Short of trial-and-error, how can we find the minimum set of OIDs required for Observium to be willing to detect an older Cisco router (e.g. 8xx, 18xx) and add it, so that interfaces can be polled? I already know that if we enable access to ifTable only, Observium doesn't want to play ball and won't add the device. I don't mind reading the source if I have a clue what & where to look for, but I haven't yet found anything promising. Clues, please? -Adam Adam Thompson Consultant, Infrastructure Services [MERLIN] 100 - 135 Innovation Drive Winnipeg, MB R3T 6A8 (204) 977-6824 or 1-800-430-6404 (MB only) https://www.merlin.mb.ca<https://www.merlin.mb.ca/> [cid:image002.png@01D8FEA1.078201A0]Chat with me on Teams<https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/0?users=athompson@merlin.mb.ca>

Re: snmp view
by Mati 23 Nov '22

23 Nov '22

Hello, I have configured one of our routers only to allow SNMP access to .1.3.6.1.2.1.2 oid using the snmp-server view command, but Observium will not add the device. However, if an SNMP object name is used instead eg *cisco*, the device is successfully polled. Is there a way of just polling the above oid in Observium? Kind regards Mati

always show table footer
by Wiethoff, Helge 20 Nov '22

20 Nov '22

Hi, I noticed that the table footer is not shown if less than 100 objects are displayed. Can it be configured so that the number of objects is always displayed? I often filter by firmware version, etc. and it would be helpful to have the number displayed. Best regards Helge

SNMP returning too much data
by Timothy Stoddard 18 Nov '22

18 Nov '22

I am trying to graph the number of GPS satellites my receiver is seeing, however, what is returned via SNMP has more information than what I need. This is from the documentation. I just want to strip the first integer as the answer. For one satellite with vehicle number 16: 1,16,C,-158 <-- I need the "1" For six satellites: 6,12,C,-156,14,C,-155,8,T,-162,24,C,-158,18,C,161,6,C,-160 <-- I need the "6" Can Observium do this? Thanks, -- Tim

"reset limits" doesn't work with one switch
by Wiethoff, Helge 10 Nov '22

10 Nov '22

Hi everyone, I have a problem with the "reset limits" function: On a device with many sensors (305) I can't recalculate the limits using "reset limits" in the device-preferences. Normally a note with the message appears: "Reset limits for Current sensor foo"; they will be recalculated on the next discovery run." But with this device this message does not appear. Of course I don't know if it has to do with the number of sensors but it is the only device where the problem occurs. Can I reset the limit values directly via the database? Thanks! Helge

Rule not being ignored
by McGranahan, Jamen (VU) 07 Nov '22

07 Nov '22

One of our servers keeps reporting that its down and then back up a minute later. I've tried to ignore the alert within Observium but that only lasted for less than a day. I even put in a date to ignore the alert until 2026. That lasted for a couple of days. But we are once again getting bombarded with these alerts. I don't want to disable the alert since we have over 30 systems registered. Ideas or suggestions?

mitel monitoring?
by Alex Rubenstein 26 Oct '22

26 Oct '22

I am looking to monitor a variety of Mitel telephony devices. I've added one and auto discovered it. I did note that the MIBs I could download from the device are precisely the same ones already located in /opt/observium/mibs/mitel When auto discovery occurs, there is no mention of anything Mitel in the device. Is there something I have to do to push observium to enable Mitel stuff?

changes to $config['frontpage']['custom_traffic']['ids'] ignored
by Eric W. Bates (he) 19 Oct '22

19 Oct '22

We replaced our edge routers over the weekend and I updated the list of port id's in $config['frontpage']['custom_traffic']['ids'] with the new ones from the new routers; however, the custom graph on the front page hasn't changed and still lists the old interfaces (on the now shut-down routers). What else do I need to do? Thanks. -- Clark 159a 508/289-3112

Yes. The issue is the subinterfaces do not show up as Ethernet (ethernetCsmacd) Click on one of the subinterfaces, click the “Data” button on the right hand side, and see what the “ifType” is on this device, here’s an Arista for example: [cid:image001.png@01D8DFC3.B46B3050] Whatever that ifType is, add that as an “or” for ifType selection criteria. ________________________________ Spencer J.

Graph Gaps and Scaling questions
by Daniel Benson 11 Oct '22

11 Oct '22

list, I have been working all angles to scale my observium CE instance running well but seem to be failing. By failing I am referring to the classic gaps in graphs for all my devices. I am running on esxi with 16 cores @ 2.40GHz, 16G of ram, SSD SAS Raid and continue to have gaps. Most recently I have pushed sql to its own instance in hopes of working around potential IO issues but that didnt help. What I do see is that my ram use is very high, I am guessing from the discovery process twice a day. When my ram use is lower throughout the day, I have no gaps. I am monitoring 6000ports on 190 devices. Should I be using north of 16G of ram in my env? I am happy to add more but all my reading indicates that observium is not RAM intense. My last attempt will be to move the RRDs to a ram disk but my RRDs are almost 16G at this time which I am guessing is part of the problem. Maybe it is time to clean house. Any insight would be appreciated. db

APC UPS Monitoring
by Alex Rubenstein 11 Oct '22

11 Oct '22

One of the status indicators on APC UPS's is "Diagnostic Results." It is shown as: Diagnostics Results (last 2022-10-10) ok I am looking to set up an alert where if the last diag date is more than N days ago, alert me. But since the date is somehow wrapped into the status name, rather than the status result, I am not sure how to do this. Any pointers?
