Tom and everyone,

Thanks for the information. I got the powers that be to open up the observium port and I’ve been getting some great data ever since. I appreciate the assistance.

I can't use the observium agent on my dns server actually. While snmp is an approved app, the observium agent is not. Is there no way for me to give Observium a list of OIDs to poll and graph, ala a cacti xml file?

Thanks, Ricardo

I've recently (as in the last 3 or 4 days) began configuring Observium for the purpose of getting some good trending data out of my bind servers. I noticed in the demo, there is an APP drop down, and BIND is listed as one of the supported applications. I am having a difficult time figuring out how to get Observium to monitor my bind servers however.

The application monitoring comes from the unix agent - http://www.observium.org/wiki/UNIX_Agent

It's not too difficult to set up, the files you need are in /opt/observium/scripts. Once you've got the agent working, you may need to enable it under the Poller Modules for the specific host.
