Subject: Re: [Observium] Disable netstats for device type
Robert, thanks!
Module netstats was disabled (by default) for Geist PDUs.
Use latest Rolling update (r11063).

Hi!
We have a large number of ‘Geist’ PDU devices, each of which takes around 20-30 seconds to complete the ‘netstats’ poller element (due to the nasty tiny-brain device, not Observium):
There is no data of value to us collected from this, so I’d like to just disable netstat collection for all current and future Geist devices. Is there a way to do this which doesn’t involve clicking on each one and disabling that module manually?
I’ve trawled the DB as best I can to try to see where I can do this, but unable to identify where module enable/disablement is done. Closest I found is within the devices table, there is device_state and the netstats element is encoded in there in a way I cannot grasp unfortunately.
Devices can be easily matched with: select * from devices where vendor like "geist" – so I’m hoping I can make a change globally somehow?
Cheers!
