MySQL App - Seconds Behind Master
by Ximena Cardinali 20 May '14

20 May '14

Hello There, few days ago I implemented the MySQL App Feature on our Observium and it's working like a charm. It brings useful Information for MySQL Cluster Nodes. I'm just missing something, and that's: "Seconds Behind Master" Is there any particular Configuration that I have to implement to make it work or it's not just yet implemented? BTW, I'm running the Open Source Version of Observium running on a Debian Virtual Server. Thanks in advance! Cheers, Ximena. --- *Ximena E.

20 May '14

Hi, we like to monitor some of our ADSL routers and Switches these are TP-Link devices, but the observium only picks them up as generic devices!? I’ve created a custom os.inc.php to include a tplink device and icon could you possible put it in the SVN professionally :-) Some info below from an ADSL router if its required: sysDescr -> TD-W8901G sysName -> tp-link sysObjectID -> .1.3.6.1.4.1.1.2.3.4.5 Some Info below from a SWITCH, again if required: sysDescr -> 24-Port Gigabit Smart Switch sysName -> tl-sg2424 sysObjectID -> .1.3.6.1.4.1.11863.1.1.13 Regards Simon

Observium vs others
by Alejandro Lengua Vega 19 May '14

19 May '14

Hello, I am looking for a tool that can allow me to monitor customer's physical servers as well as my virtual servers (I have some, not too many Linux/CPanel servers and Windows VPS). This is a list of the tools I have been recommended along with Observium https://nodequery.com/ sar newrelic naemon nagios Icinga I think nagios and similars are too much for me, however I don´t know if Observium has all what I need, can you help me with that? Some of the features I need are: 1. Load/performance monitoring applications like Apache, MySQL, Exim (email) 2. Exim queque size (for preventing spam issues) 3. Generate user logins for my customers (so they can see graphics of their servers) 4. Access from mobile Do you think Observium could help me with this?

Auto refresh default setting
by Chris Pelling 18 May '14

18 May '14

Hey guys, Subs version, I like to leave the default view page, as Network >> Bits so that I see ALL spikes fairly quickly, and can react if I see anything, however for the love of god, inc F5 / Hard refresh, I cannot get the screen to default to loading say the last 6 hours. Anyway of doing this, and let me provide the URL I am sitting at : http://my.observiumURL.com/devices/type=network/format=graphs/disabled=0/so… Now anything to make this simply autorefresh in the last 6 hours AUTOMATICALLY would be great - beer tokens available. The reason behind this is a 55" screen that sits on the wall, that at the moment doesn't do what it should do and will shortly be used for plastic gun target with suckers!!!! -- Kind regards, Chris

Dell Hardware Sensors
by Travis Kreikemeier 16 May '14

16 May '14

Very little information about this in the Wiki or configuration guide. I would like to get hardware sensors working in Observium for Dell servers, PE 2950, R310, R610, etc. I want to alert when any sensor is not OK. For example, hard drive failure, power supply failure, etc. >From what I think is possible. That information is available in SNMP on a physical Linux server if you setup SNMP SMUX Peer to the Dell OpenManage agent running on the server? Does Observium support it? However, it appears this is not possible on physical Windows? As well, as it look like that hardware SNMP nformation is not available either on ESXi 5+ because of lack of SNMP support integration with Dell OpenManage agent VIB. I'm on correct on this? Or can Observium get this hardware health from WS-MAN on ESXi, or IPMI to iDRAC hardware card? It would be awesome to see a Observium definitive hardware monitoring guide for Dell and then HP. Any information or help would be appreciated! Observium rocks! Oh, and the Alerting system in Pro is awesome! However, little bit of a learning curve. I created 9 alerts that I think should cover most issues. Such as high cpu, low memory, device down, device rebooted, network port at half duplex, network port down, high port utilization, etc. It would have been ideal if there was a Wiki page with all of those just laid out for examples. Everyone just keeps adding more and more example alerts to that page. TRAVIS KREIKEMEIER

Edit bill ports display bug
by Spencer Gaw 16 May '14

16 May '14

Hey all, I've noticed a display issue on the Edit Bill view, specifically within the Bill Ports section - see attached. The ports display without issue when viewing the bill, but do not appear at all (except for the delete button) in the Edit view. Looks like this issue is present in r5478 and r5492. This isn't a huge deal by any means but if someone could take a look when they have a second, it would be much appreciated. Thanks! Regards, SG

Incorrect Port VLAN Information
by Casey Dinsmore 16 May '14

16 May '14

I'm testing out Observium and I've noticed a problem with some of the VLAN assignments. Our shop runs HP Procurve switches and we've seen this problem on both the 2824 and the 5308xl. Here is what Observium sees vs the switch config: http://pastebin.com/FGC4z8eJ Is this a known issue? Thanks, Casey
