Support of Lexmark printers
by Jama Solomo 21 Nov '13

21 Nov '13

Status: Currently no subscription. Hello! we have a bunch of Lexmark printers spread around the entire company. We are looking for a software to monitor the remaining toner capacity. I have tested Observium. A real nice software. However we got only the typical information like CPU, storage or RAM usage. No information about toner. Question: Is the support of Lexmark printers on the road map? Thank you for feedback. Regards Jama

Hi All, I am new to Observium and love the product so far. I am looking at the Disk I/O page and trying to figure out the legend. Could somebody please explain what the k, M and u's stand for? Is it kb, mb or thousands and millions? What about the u? Thanks in advance!

Re: [Observium] Stable vs Trunk

I am !! In a production environment we may avoid bugs and more risky problems (like an insane SNMP discoverer, or something like that). So I'll be interested in a stable branch, regularly updated :-) I think the most important things are : 1) Stability 2) "Silence" - in terms of not talking too much on the network 3) Performance 4) Without less information or functionality than the latest updates Regards, Adrien BERTRAND Administrateur Sécurité du Système d'Information Tel : 01.42.79.47.81 Interne : 5.47.81 [Description : Q_BPCE_Assurances.jpg] ************************************************************************** From: Tom Laermans <tom.laermans(a)powersource.cx<mailto:tom.laermans@powersource.cx>> To: observium(a)observium.org<mailto:observium@observium.org> Subject: Re: [Observium] Stable vs Trunk Message-ID: <528A414B.5040501(a)powersource.cx<mailto:528A414B.5040501@powersource.cx>> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Hi, > As it turns out, waiting for a bit of software to feel un-buggy enough > to call stable is a little bit like chasing a magic dragon in a > pharmaceutically-enhanced dream, a largely unattainable goal.

Stable vs Trunk
by Adam Armstrong 18 Nov '13

18 Nov '13

Hi All, When we started the new SVN setup, I had envisioned dropping trunk to stable every couple of weeks when I felt it was un-buggy enough. As it turns out, waiting for a bit of software to feel un-buggy enough to call stable is a little bit like chasing a magic dragon in a pharmaceutically-enhanced dream, a largely unattainable goal. It's a little difficult to gauge stability when we have half a dozen commits per day! Are any of you using the stable branch, and if so, how often and under what conditions would you want me to merge changes? adam.

duplicate system name
by Zoran Lukenic 18 Nov '13

18 Nov '13

Hello, my observium lab was on 0.12.10.3399. I have some problem with my graphs but it's not a problem i just did a fresh install on new server with last observium version 0.13.10.4721. The tutorial was great and my install work perfect. When i start to add my devices i had some error. Some device have the same system name and when i tri to add them, the 2nd one don't work. "Already got device with SNMP-read sysName (system.name)" I didn't get this on my lab. Is it possible to disable system name check? --- Zoran Lukenic z.lukenic(a)mediactive.fr<mailto:z.lukenic@mediactive.fr> --- Groupe Mediactive 3-4-10, cité Paradis 75010 Paris Tel : +33 1 55 28 80 60 Fax : +33 1 55 28 80 61 Support technique : 0 892 494 777 www.groupe-mediactive.fr<http://www.groupe-mediactive.fr/> Twitter : @mediactivegroup [cid:FB003B7F-1839-4401-8DAE-B37B718E4644]

billing module not loading three javascript files
by Rutger Bevaart 18 Nov '13

18 Nov '13

Hi all, In my Observium I have issues with the billing graphs where only the quick graphs are loading correctly. The browser inspector shows: Failed to load a resource : A server with the specified hostname cannot be found : http:<my hostname>js/bootstrap-loader.js Failed to load a resource : A server with the specified hostname cannot be found : http:<my hostname>js/bootstrap-tab.js Failed to load a resource : A server with the specified hostname cannot be found : http:<my hostname>js/billing.js It looks like the ‘/‘ after the hostname is missing… Tried to find where this is set and found three files in html/pages/ called: bill.php.inc bills.php.inc packages.inc.php Manually adding a ‘/‘ there does not solve the problem, and then I’m at the end of my l33t observ1um debug skills. Choosing an “transfer graph” gives a “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500” in the inspector for the graph after the other three above, but it might be totally unrelated. Quick graphs work fine. Anybody encounter this too? regards, Rutger

As this is only an issue when adding certain devices, we could make this a commandline option to addhost.php. But that code needs a rewrite to deal with getopt, currently it's a mess :( Tom Mark Boddy <mark(a)boddy.org> wrote: >Mike Stupalov <mike@...> writes: >> >> >> Hi Mark, you can tell the vendor and model of these devices?Maybe we will >add an option to exclude check duplicate sysNames, >> >> but because it is used for autodiscovery, it will not be the default >option. >> >Hi Mike, > >Yes we can tell but only by IP address.
