How to associate a custom contact in an alert checker? I create the contacts, but I don't know how to associate to an alert checker. I'm using Professional version, upgraded from SVN at 7221 release.

Contacts / Alert Checks
by Spencer Ryan 26 Nov '15

26 Nov '15

I see I can create custom contacts, but I don't see a way to associate an alert check to that contact. Am I just missing this? I saw an old post from adam saying there was no way to do it in the UI but that was a few months ago. I'd really like to define a destination email address for specific alert checks in our use case. Any help? *Spencer Ryan* | Senior Systems Administrator | sryan(a)arbor.net *Arbor Networks* +1.734.794.5033 (d) | +1.734.846.2053 (m) www.arbornetworks.com

MySQL application
by Geoff Johnson 25 Nov '15

25 Nov '15

The instructions for configuring the MySQL application at https://observium.org/w/Application/MySQL are unclear about where the database user must be created. Do the user create steps need to be done on every host running MySQL that you want to monitor, or just once on the Observium server? I assume that it's the former, just looking for clarification. Thanks, Geoff

Lot of DB errors

24 Nov '15

Hi, I receive a lot of DB errors on my Observium server every polling interval.

What could cause this? And how can I troubleshoot this? I already tried to delete a few from the mentioned entries from the database, but it recreates them and still returns the errors. Almost all errors are for the alert_table-state table. Thanks and regards, Bastiaan

Debugging rsyslog
by Tim Vaughan 24 Nov '15

24 Nov '15

I have a number of devices on separate VLANs to my Observium server. They are configured to send their logs via syslog to Observium. I have firewall rules in place on our router to allow this traffic between VLANs and I can see the traffic being passed in firewall logs. However, the log messages never seem to make it into Observium. How can I go about debugging rsyslog to see whether the logs arrive correctly at the server and are correctly processed by rsyslogd?

Arista "sensors" module taking a very long time
by Spencer Ryan 24 Nov '15

24 Nov '15

I'm hoping the answer isn't "make arista fix their SNMP engine" Polling a 7280 (64 ports of 10G) takes about 180 second, with 99% of that time in the sensors module. Running it in debug I see a lot of stalls, and this effectively repeating CMD[/usr/bin/snmpget -v2c -c *** -Pu -OUqnv -m SNMPv2-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs/rfc:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp 'udp':' core-1.aa.it.arbor.net':'161' aristaEntSensorThresholdHighWarning] EXITCODE[1] CMD RUNTIME[0.005s] STDOUT[ ] STDERR[ aristaEntSensorThresholdHighWarning: Unknown Object Identifier (Sub-id not found: (top) -> aristaEntSensorThresholdHighWarning) ] SNMP_STATUS[FALSE] SQL[SELECT * FROM `snmp_errors` WHERE `device_id` = '96' AND `error_code` = '1002' AND `snmp_cmd` = 'snmpget' AND `snmp_options` = '-OUqnv' AND `mib` = 'SNMPv2-MIB' AND `oid` = 'aristaEntSensorThresholdHighWarning';] SQL RUNTIME[0.00026798s] SQL[UPDATE `snmp_errors` set `error_count` ='471101',`updated` ='1448318766' WHERE `error_id` = '802'] SQL RUNTIME[0.00107193s] Array ( [sensor_value] => ) [RRD Disabled - update /opt/observium/rrd/ core-1.aa.it.arbor.net/sensor-power-entity-sensor-100315212.rrd N:0] Any idea if that's something you can fix? *Spencer Ryan* | Senior Systems Administrator | sryan(a)arbor.net *Arbor Networks* +1.734.794.5033 (d) | +1.734.846.2053 (m) www.arbornetworks.com

Re: [Observium] How to delete ports of devices?
by Tim Toepp 20 Nov '15

20 Nov '15

Chaman, Are they actually down? Meaning not being used? Or are you saying they are being incorrectly reported? So if they are actually down and you are asking how to NOT see the down ports in your listing: when you are on the GUI and you are looking at the Ports of a specific Device, click under Quick Filter you can hide different ports based on their status and one of the option is 'Hide Down'. The downside is that it doesn't retain and I haven't found a system wide setting/preference. If this works for you, what you could do is submit a feature request to make it a global setting not just a Quick Filter. But you really do not want to delete ports that are down as then you'll have to add them later when they become in use.
