Finally, I managed to have the APP tab, however 2 problems still persist:

  1. The NTP Graphs and PDNS the show nothing, just error graph not drawing
  2. Under device setting - application I disabled the ntp and pdns application and then they disappeared and I have the message No applications found on this device. however they still are in the folder
root@banana:/usr/lib/observium_agent/local# ls -l
total 8
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3211 Oct  1 12:00 ntpd
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3211 Oct  1 12:00 powerdns-recursor

What's wrong with my observium??? :(
    Thank You

    Hi Adam,

    I tried to re-install Unix Agent from scratch and I still have a problem. I double cheked the permission and all files belong to root:root with chmod +x. I don't know what is wrong but I'm quite sure it is something of stupid! I' m so sad because I have seen that unix agent support power-dns recursor that is the DNS server that is running on my machine and the graphs they will be very useful! 
    I was wondering if you would have just 5 minutes for loggin into my server and have a quick look.

    I would be very glad

    Thank you for your time so far

    Federico

    There is literally nothing to break, this is what the script does : 

    export AGENT_LIBDIR="/usr/lib/observium_agent"

    LOCALDIR=$AGENT_LIBDIR/local

    if cd $LOCALDIR
    then
      for skript in $(ls|grep -v '~$')
      do
        if [ -x "$skript" ] ; then
            ./$skript
        fi
      done
    fi

    If that doesn't work, the only thing it could realistically possibly be is permissions related.

    Hi,

    the packages dpkg rpm were there when I copied the scripts from scripts/agent-local
    In regards to user and chmod, I was trying different combination. The original script are in this user and group

    -rwxrwxr-x 1 banana banana  3211 Mar 26  2014 ntpd

    I changed in root root because it didn't work...


    2015-09-30 23:55 GMT+01:00 Adam Armstrong <adama@memetic.org>:
    Is there any reason that you have dpkg *and* rpm? 

    How come the ntpd script has a different user and us chmod 777?

    It's possible that there's a permissions issue preventing the scripts from being run. I've never encountered a situation where the observium_agent script failed to execute scripts in the correct directory, so I have no idea why it wouldn't be working.

    Hi,

    There don't seem to be any application scripts correctly installed, so it isn't returning any data that will be used by an app pollers.

    i.e. : 

    root@omega:/home/observium/dev# ls /usr/lib/observium_agent/local/ -l
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  2910 May 15  2014 apache
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  4234 May 15  2014 bind
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root   714 May 15  2014 dpkg
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root   102 May 15  2014 lmsensors

    You can run the poller in debug mode to see what, if anything, it tries to do with the data : 

    ./poller.php -h <device_id> -d

    Telnet seems to work (see attachment), however, under application tab I can read No applications found on this device.

    (By the way...thank you for your time!)

    If it's set up correctly, you should get an "apps" menu populated with applications which are correctly returned.

    You can test the agent is returning data by telnetting to the agent port.

    Ok guys.
    I managed to set-up the UNIX agent. It is running on the same machine that is acting as OBSERVIUM server (basically it is pooling itself on loopback interface). I copied the scripts into  /usr/lib/observium_agent/local/ and they are executable. On observium web page I can see the agent execution time, however...no one graph related to the scripts copied is shown by observium.

    Below my php conf

    Any suggestion?



    // Database config ---  This MUST be configured
    $config['db_host'] = 'localhost';
    $config['db_user'] = 'root';
    $config['db_pass'] = 'xxxxxx';
    $config['db_name'] = 'observium';

    // Base directory
    $config['install_dir'] = "/opt/observium";

    // Default community list to use when adding/discovering
    $config['snmp']['community'] = array("public");

    // Authentication Model

    Ok,
    Thank for the info. I'll have a look

    To get NTP data to observium you need to be running the observium Unix agent on the device.

    This is required for both the native NTP graphing and graphing of things via munin.

    There is documentation for the Unix agent on the website.

    Hi guys,

    Thanks for your reply.
    Actually, I'm using Linux version 3.2.0-4-amd64 (debian-kernel@lists.debian.org) (gcc version 4.6.3 (Debian 4.6.3-14) ) #1 SMP Debian 3.2.68-1+deb7u3 and I running ntpd but the graphs are not displayed

    If I decide to run munin client on my server (I guess munin-node packet) how can I integrate it on OBSERVIUM? 

    Thanks

    Federico


    2015-09-28 22:03 GMT+01:00 Adam Armstrong <adama@observium.org>:
    Alternatively, Observium can collect and display data from a munin client via the Unix agent, too.

    If you use the unix agent (check_mk) it will detect ntpd automatically and add graphing for it. Couldn't be easier.

    Assuming you are running ntpd on a unix variant. If it's an appliance (trimble etc), then it might need some extra work to fetch via snmp.

    Hi All,

    I'm trying to plot some graphs with Observium for my NTP server. I
    would do
    something similar to MUNIN. I tried to google it but I didn't find any
    useful information for my (low) level of experience.

    Can someone point me in the right direction?
