So I have nagios running smooth for one company and working with another was introduced to observium. Interface is excellent, but I have 2 questions.
First mistake is trying to compare Nagios and Observium. You're basically trying to compare MS Word and Lotus 1-2-3.
- Alerts. I had a dev box hit around 97% disk space with no notice.
So there is an alerts tab, but I don't see how to configure alerts, thresholds, etc. Looking at the wiki (http://observium.org/wiki/Configuration_Options#Simple_API_Settings) I do see some things, but no simple [add alert] type thing, so is there something I can read, etc. as I continue to play?
We don't do alerting. There is some *old* code in there which sends out some alerts that have been useful at points in the past, but Observium is not currently capable of replacing an up/down alerting application like Nagios or similar.
- Search header. The one I was shown before I did the install had
the company logo (I see where to change that, colors, etc.) but they had the searchbar just not there (and I can see why). I can click the [hide] but I would like to completely remove it, but don't see where/how to accomplish.
No idea what you're talking about!
