Happy New Year, all ya’ll Observium folks.

 

So while everyone else is on holiday, I’m getting to do work. And this brought up an interesting question.

 

I’m  mostly removing old/unutilized 10/100/1000 line cards from a Catalyst 6509 today, and in a couple cases installing 10Gb linecards.

 

Right now, I’ve already pulled three linecards from one chassis, and decided to force some discovery/polling of the chassis to see if the old ports will go away… and they haven’t. Doing a “show modules” on the switch confirms the line cards have been removed, but in the device port properties page, Observium still considers them “disabled / down”.

 

Manually running the housekeeping script with the –p option says there are no ports to delete, even when I have manually gone into config.php and set the time duration to be really short (like 1*1 instead of 30*86400).

 

Which brings me to the question… how long does it take for Observium to consider a port or ports “deleted” after it has been removed from the chassis?

 

Thanks,

     Ron
