Cannot add CAB 4+ printer
by Ronald 05 Mar '16

05 Mar '16

I'm working for a small company in the floral sector. We have several types of printers. From conventional multifunctionals to label printers (CAB, Zebra). I can add the Zebra printers, but not the cab printers. It appears that Observium is looking for objects with a different suffix. I searched around the site and did some Googling. But I was not able to sort this out myself.

Alerts rrd in wrong directory
by Louis Bailleul 04 Mar '16

Hi all, I just noticed that the rrd for my alerts have been created in the root rrd directoy instead of in each device directory. Is this a known issue ? The alerts availability graphs don’t work as they look for the rrd in the wrong place : RRDTool Output: ERROR: opening '/data/observium/rrd/lswc11u21 /alert-3375.rrd': No such file or directory Total time: 0.012 | RRDtool time: 0.011s # ls -l rrd/alert-337* | head -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 233120 Feb 29 12:25 rrd/alert-3370.rrd -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 233120 Feb 29 12:25 rrd/alert-3371.rrd -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 233120 Feb 29 12:25 rrd/alert-3372.rrd -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 233120 Feb 29 12:25 rrd/alert-3373.rrd -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 233120 Feb 29 12:25 rrd/alert-3374.rrd -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 233120 Feb 29 12:25 rrd/alert-3375.rrd -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 233120 Feb 29 12:25 rrd/alert-3376.rrd -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 233120 Feb 29 12:25 rrd/alert-3377.rrd -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 233120 Feb 29 12:25 rrd/alert-3378.rrd -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 233120 Feb 29 12:25 rrd/alert-3379.rrd It looks like only the visualization code is looking for the rrd in the wrong place.

Purchasing the Professional Edition
by Matthew Hawes 04 Mar '16

04 Mar '16

Greetings everyone I was on this list serv in my previous job and I found it to be a great resource for my Observium installation! Great product ! I know this was brought up on numerous occasions in the past (I tried accessing the archive but had no luck with the link so my apologies and haven't been on the listserv in about 6 months) but are there any other methods to pay for the professional version ? Our team took a look at Observium Community and one downside we all brought up was lack of alerting and the payment method. Thank you and have a great day!

How to add a custom alert or web site health check in Observium
by David Gietka - NOAA Federal 04 Mar '16

04 Mar '16

Greetings, My office recently purchased Observium and we really enjoy the server stats on CPU, memory and storage. It appears that I can set up other health checks as well but I was not able to find any examples in the HTML help files. What I would like to do is write a simple shell script that returns one of three values: information, warning, and critical and have Observium act on that value with an alert (on warnings and critical error codes). Does anyone have a brief example they can share? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot. Regards, David Gietka NGS Webmaster
