Alert Changes in newest subscription update?
Hello all. I'm fairly green with Linux as well as Observium. I stood up the community edition on Centos 3.10.0-957.1.3.el7.x86_64 and found it to be a very useful tool. Management supported moving to subscription.
I have various alert checkers setup and everything seemed to be very happy and good until updating to revision 9727 on 2/28/2019. It seemed like Observium started becoming more "sensitive" to things and has generated false positives on devices being down when they actually aren't.
Really, I not remember changes that could affect increase frequency alerts generation (and somehow influence the sensitivity). Most likely this is due to network delays or problems on the server itself.
You was do recommended server improvements like: RRDCached - https://docs.observium.org/rrdcached/ Overall system tuning - https://docs.observium.org/tuning/ Poller optimization - https://docs.observium.org/poller/
And show (screenshots) which exactly alert checkers changed their behaviour.
I tried locating release notes on the revision to see if any changes were made to alerting, to no avail. I just ran another update this morning and we are now on 9775. I guess what I'm asking is if there were changes to alerting / polling that may require me to tweak my settings.
Thank you in advance for any insight...and this is an absolutely terrific tool. The subscription price is a steal compared to other commercial packages available that are 10 times the cost and about 100 times less useful.
Very Respectfully,

Hi,
No problems from us, we much prefer 18.04.
Good luck with Ubuntu surviving, though! :)
