I tried that. But seems only a few module are listed there. I think if I disable any of them, a big class of monitors would be disabled with it. I am looking for a way to disable certain mib/objects. Thanks a lot.
Would removing/commenting out those objects from the mib file help?

On the device's page in Observium, there is a small gear icon on the far right hand side of the screen. Click on that. Then click on the MIBs link in the Edit bar. You should see a list of MIBs associated with that device. From there you can disable individual MIBs from being polled.

Hi, Sorry if this has been answered. But I didn't find the answer in doing search.
So we have a router bug of memory leak core-dump which was caused by observium trying to do snmpwalk against a certain mib. Vendor advise us to upgrade the code to latest, which we can't do without significant amount of coordination. So I am trying to figure out how to make observium not to poll it. didn't find from gui. If I delete the mib definition from the mibs/ sub dir, would that be enough?
No. Those things would still be polled.
Disable the module which is polling that MIB. At the moment we don't have the capability of disabling individual MIBs, so you have to enable an entire module. That's not really a problem though, as each device only usually has one active MIB per module (except, perhaps, the ports module).
