apcupsd UPS monitoring
by Nagy Attila 27 Apr '19

27 Apr '19

Hi All, we have a few Linux servers which are fed through APC Smart UPSs. Rather small ones, so no network management card, they are being monitored by apcupsd. We would be very happy to see the/some values of the UPSs in Observium. What I've done: I extended snmpd with a script from https://github.com/jirutka/apcupsd-snmp which makes some values from apcupsd available under |.1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1| which in turn belongs to PowerNet-MIB (aka APC). I can read those values with snmpwalk (see p.s.) so the script works. Observium already contains PowerNet-MIB, but no graph for these values are appearing. I suppose Observium does not query for PowerNet-MIB for anything other than APC OS, or maybe it looks for some other conditions as well? My question: is there a way to make Observium query and use these values for other OS's (like Linux) as well ? Regards, Tylla Ps: please feel free to correct any bad assumption/statement I made! Ps: here is my current output (MIB errors excluded) from snmpwalk in case it helps: snmpwalk -m ALL -v 2c -c public localhost .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1 PowerNet-MIB::upsBasicIdentModel.0 = STRING: "Smart-UPS 750" PowerNet-MIB::upsBasicIdentName.0 = STRING: "test" PowerNet-MIB::upsAdvIdentFirmwareRevision.0 = STRING: "COM 02.1 / UPS.05.I" PowerNet-MIB::upsAdvIdentSerialNumber.0 = STRING: "AS1108112010" PowerNet-MIB::upsBasicBatteryTimeOnBattery.0 = Timeticks: (0) 0:00:00.00 PowerNet-MIB::upsAdvBatteryCapacity.0 = Gauge32: 100 PowerNet-MIB::upsAdvBatteryRunTimeRemaining.0 = Timeticks: (144000) 0:24:00.00 PowerNet-MIB::upsAdvBatteryNominalVoltage.0 = INTEGER: 24 PowerNet-MIB::upsAdvBatteryActualVoltage.0 = INTEGER: 27 PowerNet-MIB::upsBasicOutputStatus.0 = INTEGER: onLine(2) PowerNet-MIB::upsAdvConfigAlarm.0 = INTEGER: never(3) PowerNet-MIB::upsAdvConfigLowBatteryRunTime.0 = Timeticks: (30000) 0:05:00.00

by Dana Bostic 26 Apr '19

26 Apr '19

Is there a document somewhere that will show me how to make "bulk" changes. An example would be how do I change a sensors Warn level for all my UPSs? I don't want to go though 200 of them, I want to change the default warning, etc. Caterpillar: Confidential Green

Bulk group creation via API/DB query/something else?
by Brandwatch NOC 26 Apr '19

26 Apr '19

Hi, I need to bulk create a large number of sensor groups. I would really rather not do that by hand in the GUI. Any automatable method would be fine - API/script/DB query/something else. I had a quick look around but couldn't find anything in the documentation - I would appreciate a quick nudge in the right direction.

Migrated from 16.04 to 18.04 and rrd stopped writing?
by Simon Mousey Smith 24 Apr '19

24 Apr '19

Hi All Im trying to find out if I have done something wrong or maybe missed something? I have done a migrate from ubuntu 16.04 to ubuntu 18.04 and now ALL of my RRDs have stopped being written? 1. mysqldump to backup, scp file to new server, then mysql to restore 2. Scp the whole rrd folder from old server to new server 3. Scp the old config.php to new server Only thing I have done differently is use the setup script instead of manually installing observium On the new server the rrd folder shows drwxrwsr-x 60 observium www-data 4.0K Apr 24 16:29 rrd But the old server shows it as drwxr-xr-x 60 www-data www-data 12K Apr 24 15:57 rrd One of the folders inside rrd show this drwxr-xr-x 2 root www-data 4096 Apr 24 15:58 localhost And an rrd file shows this -rw-r--r-- 1 root www-data 115K Apr 24 15:58 perf-poller.rrd Did I overwrite the folder permissions by accident?

Graph Widget Legend
by Brian Weeks 19 Apr '19

19 Apr '19

How can I get the front page Graph Widget to show the legend? I have had no luck enabling the legend on the graph page and then telling it to add to a dashboard it just does not show. As a matter of fact, the URL for the widget says legend=no. The legend is very important for us to know exactly how much bandwidth is being used on a particular link. -- Brian Weeks Network Engineer CCNA, MCSE, ACMT, A+, Network+, Security+ Brenham ISD 1301 Niebuhr St. Brenham, TX 7783 Office: (979) 277-3760 ext. 2249 Email: bweeks(a)brenhamk-12.net Website: http://www.brenhamisd.net --

seems i got something broken with geolocation
by Joelly, Alexander 18 Apr '19

18 Apr '19

during setup of distribution and partitioned poller, autodiscovery and mapquest I obviously did something wrong and messed up the geolocation feature - newly added devices are all only added to the default location. /opt/observium/logs/db.log on all pollers gets filled with: [2019/04/18 20:57:44 +0000] discovery.php(17511): Failed dbQuery (#1054 - Unknown column 'devices.location_id' in 'where clause'), Query: SELECT `device_id` FROM `devices` WHERE ( `devices`.`location_id` = '9') Thanks, Alex
