Had a couple of utilisation alerts come through today reporting a

10Gig port as over 80% utilisation, when in reality it doesnt appear

to be that busy?.

The alert email shows this graph, showing over 100% utilisation and a

solid 80+% most of the day:

When you click through the embedded link to the 'real' graph in

Observium itself, it reports the correct utilisation figures I would

epxect to see based on the traffic graph:

Traffic graph for the port:

Are the alerts reading the information from a different rrd? Doesn't

seem like it as the port would be alarming constantly based on the

graph in the email as it shows over 80% for most of the day?

Happy to accept that the port may have spiked to 8Gbps, but I would

have thought this would have been reflected in the graphs somewhere

but if anything traffic was tailing off?

Is there possibly an issue with the alerting on ifInOctets_perc or do

I need to be looking more closely at what the device is reporting,

which on face value _seems_ OK looking at a debug of poller.php?

Thanks,

Tim C
