Hello! We are migrating from Cacti to Observium and it was a great experience, the only thing we lacked were the weathermap plugin for getting that nice network overview. I then found that Neil Lathwood wrote a modified version of the PHP Weathermap that works with Observium data, you can find it on his github: https://github.com/laf/weathermap
I wrote a quick and dirty script that adds the weathermaps to the Observium menu without modifying Observium-code so that it will not break when updating Observium. It works really well so I wrote a little guide for how you get the weathermap to work with Observium and posted it here: http://blog.best-practice.se/2014/07/using-php-weathermap-with-observium.htm... In case there are more people interested in using the weathermap with Observium :)

Hi Markus,
This is great !!! we also started using that modified version of weathermap by Neil Lathwood sometime back, this will be a great addition to that.
Thanks a lot for your effort on this.
Regards, Supun.

Hi Markus,
I did pretty much the same thing and added a link to the editor as well.
function make_menu_item($url,$name,$icon) { $string='<li><a href="' . $url . '"><span class="menu-icon ' . $icon . '"></span> ' . $name . ' </a></li>'; return $string; }
$data = file_get_contents('/opt/observium/html/weathermap/editor.php'); if(strpos($data, 'ENABLED=true;') !== FALSE) { echo make_menu_item('/weathermap/editor.php','Weathermap editor','oicon-globe-model'); } else { echo make_menu_item('https://observium.sidn.nl%27,%27Weathermap editor disabled by config!','oicon-globe-model'); }

Oh, thats great! Was thinking of adding the editor too. I was gonna start look in to if it was easy to modify the editor to look for the authed user level in observium instead of the ENABLED=false/true-thing. Like you will only be able to access the editor if you are logged in as a level 10 user, and it will only appear in the menu then.
To hide it in the menu is pretty easy, I think you only need to add a: if ($_SESSION['userlevel'] >= 10) to your code and the menu will only appear for admin users :)

Security note for that: if you only hide the link for <10 and not actually secure it in the code itself, anyone can still surf to the url and get the page content, even though you did not show the link in the menu ;)

Yeah, editor.php still needs to be modified somehow to use observium session auth, that is a little more tricky I guess :)

Maybe it's just me, but I do not have a /opt/observium/html/include/ directory, shouldn't that be includes?
If I copy the navbar-custom.inc.php from the weathermap directory to that includes directory, Observium doesn't even load the interface properly...
I'm using the latest Observium version.

Hello Markus,
We are migrating from Cacti to Observium and it was a great experience, the only thing we lacked were the weathermap plugin for getting that nice network overview. I then found that Neil Lathwood wrote a modified version of the PHP Weathermap that works with Observium data, you can find it on his github: https://github.com/laf/weathermap [1] [1]
I wrote a quick and dirty script that adds the weathermaps to the Observium menu without modifying Observium-code so that it will not break when updating Observium. It works really well so I wrote a little guide for how you get the weathermap to work with Observium and posted it here: http://blog.best-practice.se/2014/07/using-php-weathermap-with-observium.htm... [2] [2]
In case there are more people interested in using the weathermap with Observium :)
Maybe it's just me, but I do not have a /opt/observium/html/include/ directory, shouldn't that be includes?
If I copy the navbar-custom.inc.php from the weathermap directory to that includes directory, Observium doesn't even load the interface properly...
I'm using the latest Observium version.

It doesn't look like it has any graph forced directed layout type capabilities.
I assume such algorithms in client-side or server side would be do-able...
Getting something useful and sensible would probably take some hard-yards in both design and implementation.

Ahh, sorry :-)
I didn't see a good way of keeping this backwards compatible unfortunately.
Creating a menu entry or even an entirely new menu should be a lot easier now though.

Hello Markus,
We are migrating from Cacti to Observium and it was a great experience, the only thing we lacked were the weathermap plugin for getting that nice network overview. I then found that Neil Lathwood wrote a modified version of the PHP Weathermap that works with Observium data, you can find it on his github: https://github.com/laf/weathermap [2] [1] [1]
I wrote a quick and dirty script that adds the weathermaps to the Observium menu without modifying Observium-code so that it will not break when updating Observium. It works really well so I wrote a little guide for how you get the weathermap to work with Observium and posted it here: http://blog.best-practice.se/2014/07/using-php-weathermap-with-observium.htm...
[3] [2] [2]
In case there are more people interested in using the weathermap with Observium :)
Maybe it's just me, but I do not have a /opt/observium/html/include/ directory, shouldn't that be includes?
If I copy the navbar-custom.inc.php from the weathermap directory to that includes directory, Observium doesn't even load the interface properly...
I'm using the latest Observium version.

Markus,
Are you sure it works? There's a ?> on line 6 that doesn't seem to be right.
Easier creation of menus was the idea indeed. The navbar code itself still is large because of all the conditionals but at least we've cut down significantly on "confusing" html code :)

Observium will only monitor and alert stuff that is pollable using SNMP. The kinds of things you want to monitor don't meet that criteria so Observium won't be able do what you want natively. You might, however, be able to run snmpd locally on the boxes that are running the services that you are interested in monitoring and use HOST-RESOURCES-MIB accordingly.
I don't know if Observium can alert based on HOST-RESOURCES-MIB stuff though. Never tried.
