Smokeping Integration
by Tim Calvin 16 Mar '13

16 Mar '13

Trying to get some assistance on integrating Smokeping into Observium. Unable to get the ping tab to appear under my devices. I have read the documentation and seem to have everything in order. Not sure if it is just the way I have the devices named or something else. Smokeping's html files are located at: /var/www/smokeping/ I have edited Observium's config.php to include the following: $config['smokeping']['dir'] = "/var/www/smokeping/"; Observium is using identical hostnames to the ones from the Smokeping config snippet below. I can access the Smokeping webpage and can verify it is working properly. Am I missing something? + dlls-asr9k_tlsn_net host = dlls-asr9k.tlsn.net + sant-asr9k_tlsn_net host = sant-asr9k.tlsn.net + mdld-asr9k_tlsn_net host = mdld-asr9k.tlsn.net Thanks in advance. Tim

Verifying timeouts
by Bryan Socha 15 Mar '13

15 Mar '13

We've been using observium for well over a year now and extrememly happy with it. We have devices all over the world and recently started to see some strange reboot, high cpu loads and device up/down messages when the devices appear to be ok I recently noticed it seems to be the ones further away. I noticed the log really doesn't specify anything specific and my php skills are not up to snuff so I was wondering how would one go about verifying if we are seeing timeouts on the polling to know the best way to rectify the situation we are experiencing. Can someone verify is say the timeout of a cpu poll would actually how max cpu load? Thanks, Bryan

Oh. You don't need to do much to update. It's documented on the wiki. svn up ./discovery.php -h new And it'll be updated.

snmp custom oid graphing
by Tsvetan Blagoev 12 Mar '13

12 Mar '13

Hello ! First of all, thank you for the gr8 product and keep up the good work :) I am using observium in a small infrastructure (ESXi servers and linux appliances with snmp enabled) and I am facing two problems: -monitoring ESXi performance metrics - those are not exposed via snmp, so I have installed VMware CIM binaries to query the host machines. However, I am not aware how to pass data to observium afterwards and get a performance graph. -graphing data from a custom snmp OID ( snmp exec or extend) Thanks in advance!

Remember, always svn up before posting, else you might look silly.
