I remember seeing some reference to message queuing in the config.ini a while back, that was probably the basis for making observium “chat” (At least that’s how I would do it)

Any plans?

Or a proxy function?

Is it possible to have separate poller servers that is installed at a customer and then sends their data to a central observium?

So you don’t have to have VPN tunnels to every site.

No one below level 7 can see device configs.

Its not possible to give lower level users access to configs.

If rancid is also setup is it possible to restrict access to the device configs to level 1 users as well?

Hi,

This can be achieved by creating "normal" users of level 1, and giving them permissions to view individual or groups of devices or ports.

It's actually quite a common configuration.

hey,

currently we are using cacti to collect snmp data but your solutions 
looks much better :) Currently we are collecting data from all our 
customers into one centralized system on one of our servers. Would it be 
possible to have some kind of "multi site" installation with observium 
to give our customers access to their data? We dont want to setup 
Observium for each of our customers, but want them to be able to have a 
look at the current state their systems.

I could not find any documentation about this feature, is is possible? 
Maybe with groups or locations?
