Hi guys, has anyone integrated Observium with Grafana to create dashboards? I don’t know the structure of the DB in observium and have been doing some test with no luck on the results, so any examples will be really appreciated.
Regard,s
Luis
Hello Luis
I ihave nstalled grafana-rrd-server on the observium, and than from grafana connect with a jason plugin to the server. I have defined in the observium a RRD Dir and make a ln -s to all RRD that I need.
The only thing is that the value for bandwith utilisation shwoing in grafana is divided with 10, I don't now why. Maybe I have to use the enterprise version to manipulate some values. All other kind of values are ok.
I will investigate later on.
Regards
Walter

Not divided by 10, divided by 8. The SNMP interface counters uses bytes not bits. This is something you will need to handle in Grafana.

You could also configure Observium to insert data into InfluxDB and use Grafana to create a dashboard from the InfluxDB-data. Just enable this in config.php
$config['influxdb']['enabled'] = FALSE; // Enable or disable posting data to InfluxDB $config['influxdb']['server'] = 'localhost:8086'; // Where is InfluxDB listening? $config['influxdb']['db'] = 'observium'; // Which InfluxDB database?

Hello Markus
Thanks for your help. I have enabled the configuration in the config.php file. Also enabled debug to see, if observium is doing something ... and it is ok. If I copy the output from the txt file into the database it works.
Writing into the the database from Observium dosen't work, I think I had to send also a token for it. In the influx.inc.php I don't see any option for a token. Do I missing some setting in the InfluxDB? I tried also with the username and password.

Nix, I didn't know about that feature!
I'd like to do sth. like
$config['influxdb']['server'] = 'https://user:password@influx-server.com:8086';
as latter versions of influx removed the possibility of unauthenticated databases (at least that's what our influx guy told me) and our instance only supports https.
Changing the relevant line in influx.inc.php to
$url = $config['influxdb']['server'] . '/write?db=' . $config['influxdb']['db'];
is not backwards compatible but leads to a correct behavior in our instance :).
