Hello Experts,
Quick one,
I have Port Down Alerts on my Alerts section.
I have not disabled the polling and alerts for those ports on the respective devices.
But inspite of it, I still see those alerts in my alerts section. Does it clear or something just because we have disabled the polling for those ports which are down. ???
Also, I have put my mail ID as contact and enabled the mail alerts.
For example, I have 50 alerts in my alerts section:
[cid:image001.png@01D2F1BF.1E7B2480]
So I get an alert flood in my mail box for those 50 alerts all once. I have my refresh interval of 5 mins, so after 5 mins I get the flood of 50 mail alerts again ?
Why there is a recurring of the mail alerts ??
PS: I have disabled the: RECOVERY in the alert checks still getting flood of alerts and it keeps repeating

No. Disabling polling disables, well, polling. How do you expect Observium to know a port has gone down if it isn't being polled? Oo Adam.

Small remark,
Your OSPF alert should be defined as a syslog alert, which I’m not sure if its available in CE yet. It says it’s being checked, but actually it’s not since the condition or test will not do anything.
Kind regards

Every time you change something in the alerts check page you have to rebuild!?

Adam,
I am seeing some assistance here.
Let me give you a scenario here. I want Observium to alert me when my Port is “DOWN”
If I put a condition as
ifOperStatus equals up ifAdminStatus equals up
What is use of the alerting ? I do not want alerts if my port is UP. I hope you get it. Please explain.
Also FYI, even if I change the entity type to “Port” from Device, then also no luck.
If you want me to pay more attention, let me get an example to you:
You have BGP example on your “Excellent Website” :

Look at my alert Check:

Now tell me why no number count here.

That isn't a port alert. It's a device alert.
It's very, very important that the entity type is set correctly. Also you have switched "equals" to "notequals", which means the checker no longer makes sense.
Please pay more attention to the specific details of the examples.

This suggests that the alert table hasn't been regenerated since you created these alert checkers.
Note that the OSPF one won't ever work, because it's just a bunch of nonsense text which doesn't match the checker format.
Also the temperature alert, sensor event alert and port operational status alerts won't work because they don't really make any sense.
You need to read the documentation and examples about creating alert checkers again.

If you see, the one highlighted are for Network related alerts, but I seem to have some issue here. If you look at the above for the CPU, Memory, Storage, etc the tool is able to detect and show the numbers in “Green” and “Red” But there is nothing indicating for BGP, high temperature and other highlighted alert checkers.

Small remark,
Your OSPF alert should be defined as a syslog alert, which I’m not sure if its available in CE yet. It says it’s being checked, but actually it’s not since the condition or test will not do anything.
Kind regards

Hi,
Have you clicked the ‘Rebuild' at the top of the Alert Checks Page next to the ‘Add Syslog Rule'?
Every time you change something in the alerts check page you have to rebuild!?

Adam,
I am seeing some assistance here.
Let me give you a scenario here. I want Observium to alert me when my Port is “DOWN”
If I put a condition as
ifOperStatus equals up ifAdminStatus equals up
What is use of the alerting ? I do not want alerts if my port is UP. I hope you get it. Please explain.
Also FYI, even if I change the entity type to “Port” from Device, then also no luck.
If you want me to pay more attention, let me get an example to you:
You have BGP example on your “Excellent Website” :

Look at my alert Check:

Now tell me why no number count here.

That isn't a port alert. It's a device alert.
It's very, very important that the entity type is set correctly. Also you have switched "equals" to "notequals", which means the checker no longer makes sense.
Please pay more attention to the specific details of the examples.

This suggests that the alert table hasn't been regenerated since you created these alert checkers.
Note that the OSPF one won't ever work, because it's just a bunch of nonsense text which doesn't match the checker format.
Also the temperature alert, sensor event alert and port operational status alerts won't work because they don't really make any sense.
You need to read the documentation and examples about creating alert checkers again.

Hello Experts,
Quick one,
I have Port Down Alerts on my Alerts section.
I have not disabled the polling and alerts for those ports on the respective devices.
But inspite of it, I still see those alerts in my alerts section. Does it clear or something just because we have disabled the polling for those ports which are down. ???
Also, I have put my mail ID as contact and enabled the mail alerts.
For example, I have 50 alerts in my alerts section:
So I get an alert flood in my mail box for those 50 alerts all once. I have my refresh interval of 5 mins, so after 5 mins I get the flood of 50 mail alerts again ?
Why there is a recurring of the mail alerts ??
PS: I have disabled the: RECOVERY in the alert checks still getting flood of alerts and it keeps repeating

Adam,
I am seeing some assistance here.
Let me give you a scenario here. I want Observium to alert me when my Port is “DOWN”
If I put a condition as
ifOperStatus equals up ifAdminStatus equals up
What is use of the alerting ? I do not want alerts if my port is UP. I hope you get it. Please explain.
Also FYI, even if I change the entity type to “Port” from Device, then also no luck.
If you want me to pay more attention, let me get an example to you:
You have BGP example on your “Excellent Website” :

Look at my alert Check:

Now tell me why no number count here.
I am trying to understand the tool here, as I am using this for the first time, hence asking you to please assist.

That isn't a port alert. It's a device alert.
It's very, very important that the entity type is set correctly. Also you have switched "equals" to "notequals", which means the checker no longer makes sense.
Please pay more attention to the specific details of the examples.

This suggests that the alert table hasn't been regenerated since you created these alert checkers.
Note that the OSPF one won't ever work, because it's just a bunch of nonsense text which doesn't match the checker format.
Also the temperature alert, sensor event alert and port operational status alerts won't work because they don't really make any sense.
You need to read the documentation and examples about creating alert checkers again.

Markus, thanks for your input. However the system went from 0.16.X -> 0.17.5.X and is behaving badly. It might be as you say but before I upgrade PHP any more ideas? System have 39 devices to poll. Have four CPUs and 6Gb RAM. It starts to behave badly directly from the beginning when enabling the CRON job.

My guess is that your system is not fast enough to poll all your devices in 5min, creating new poller processes before the old ones are done. You should start by upgrading your PHP to version 7 as this is much faster, if the problem still persists then post a screenshot of the /pollerlog-page in the Observium GUI please.

Hello Experts,
Quick one,
I have Port Down Alerts on my Alerts section.
I have not disabled the polling and alerts for those ports on the respective devices.
But inspite of it, I still see those alerts in my alerts section. Does it clear or something just because we have disabled the polling for those ports which are down. ???
Also, I have put my mail ID as contact and enabled the mail alerts.
For example, I have 50 alerts in my alerts section:
[cid:image001.png@01D2F1BF.1E7B2480]
So I get an alert flood in my mail box for those 50 alerts all once. I have my refresh interval of 5 mins, so after 5 mins I get the flood of 50 mail alerts again ?
Why there is a recurring of the mail alerts ??
PS: I have disabled the: RECOVERY in the alert checks still getting flood of alerts and it keeps repeating

No. Disabling polling disables, well, polling. How do you expect Observium to know a port has gone down if it isn't being polled? Oo Adam. Sent from BlueMail On 30 Jun 2017, at 11:06 am, "Kaustubh Parthasarthy, CLSA" > wrote: Hello Experts,

Small remark,
Your OSPF alert should be defined as a syslog alert, which I’m not sure if its available in CE yet. It says it’s being checked, but actually it’s not since the condition or test will not do anything.
Kind regards

Every time you change something in the alerts check page you have to rebuild!?
