Rancid integration - config tabs won't show up
by Pirmin Sidler - Computerline 17 Aug '16

17 Aug '16

Hi @ll First, I want to give you guys from Observium a big thumb up because having a such easy webapp, so easily maintainable, so powerful and all without marketing layers and super complicated licensing makes you kind of unique on the market. Now to the issue, I'm trying to integrate my rancid files into the latest stable version of Observium (did it last week following official observium tutorial). Now I have multiple entries in the config.php (because of multiple router.db files/directories in rancid) : $config['rancid_configs'][] = "/var/lib/rancid/ juniper1/configs/"; $config['rancid_configs'][] = "/var/lib/rancid/ juniper2/configs/"; $config['rancid_configs'][] = "/var/lib/rancid/ juniper3/configs/"; $config['rancid_ignorecomments'] = 0; All the /var/lib/rancid/ directory is chowned by rancid:rancid. www-data is in rancid group. I restarted apache2. I cleared the cache from browser. I checked the config in the observium web-interface and it's correctly read by the server (I see the lines above). I checked the hostnames, and the ones I am backing up with rancid are matching the ones registered in the observium. But there are some observium devices I am not backing up yet. (I guess it's not an issue right?). Can anybody help me out with this? Thanks a lot Kind regards, Freundliche Grüsse, Pirmin Sidler System & Network Engineer [cid:image001.jpg@01D1F865.CC141AB0]

Hi there, I've configured an alert that checks if ifInOctets_perc exceeds 80% utilisation and I'm finding that the alert is being triggered for normal amounts of traffic.

UNIX agent for PostgreSQL creating a new RRD file every poll since Aug 12
by Musall Maik 16 Aug '16

16 Aug '16

Hi, I noticed that postgresql application data disappeard on all servers recently. It ran fine for years, but since Aug 12, a new rrd file gets created on every poll, and the postgresql application tab is absent for all servers. I'm updating my installation daily on 9am, so this started happening after the Aug 12 update. Here's the oldest few files (out of over 1200 so far) for one of the servers: -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:40 app-postgresql-12.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:35 app-postgresql-11.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:30 app-postgresql-10.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:25 app-postgresql-9.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:20 app-postgresql-8.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:15 app-postgresql-7.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:10 app-postgresql-6.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Aug 12 09:05 app-postgresql-5.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Apr 14 09:00 app-postgresql-_index_.rrd -rw-rw-r-- 1 observium observium 2086688 Apr 16 2015 app-postgresql-.rrd Apparently some change went wrong?

15 Aug '16

Is there any way to utilize local authentication and LDAP authentication simultaneously? We would like to utilize LDAP for our technicans, but also be able to create local users for client access. Would it be possible to create multiple login pages or something similar? Thanks, Billy [cid:DeanDortonbox.png] Billy Zoellers Infrastructure Engineer 106 W.

Thoughts on "locations" front-page module
by Daniel Horth 15 Aug '16

15 Aug '16

In our setup the ‘map’ frontage module is pretty and impresses exec level types, however the space is mostly wasted as far as an engineer is concerned, requiring multiple clicks to drill in to areas of interest. I’d like to have the location table as seen at http://observium/locations <http://observium/locations> on my home page instead. Is this an option that can be implemented simply enough? Does anyone else think that this is a good idea? Thanks for looking!
