Hi Observium team,
We're having
issues with some of the generated graphs. Some of our devices report the
light level received by SFPs using mW (rather than dBm). We are on the
latest stable revision (13582).
Issue 1: The
graphs generated by Observium for these sensors usually show an
excessive scale of at least -100 mW to 100 mW when the data in the
specified time interval are entirely within the range 100 nW to 1 mW and
usually only a small chunk of that. The calculated minimum and maximum
values shown below the graph are correct. These graphs worked properly
in the past with a prior version of Observium.
Issue
2: Selecting and deselecting the Force Autoscale option appears to have
no effect on the generated graph or displayed rrd graph command.
Manually running the generated rrd graph command after removing the
"--alt-autoscale" option results in a good graph.
Here
is the raw SNMP output for one of the these sensors showing a current
value of 0.5560mW:
ENTITY-SENSOR-MIB::entPhySensorType.1000004631
= INTEGER: watts(6)
ENTITY-SENSOR-MIB::entPhySensorScale.1000004631 =
INTEGER: milli(8)
ENTITY-SENSOR-MIB::entPhySensorPrecision.1000004631
= INTEGER: 4
ENTITY-SENSOR-MIB::entPhySensorValue.1000004631 =
INTEGER: 5560
ENTITY-SENSOR-MIB::entPhySensorOperStatus.1000004631 =
INTEGER: ok(1)
