Hello,
Is it possible to add non-snmp devices?
Say I need to monitor a specific website for uptime but don't have snmp level access. I looked up the services check however from what I understand it still relies on the device being added the usual way which requires snmp.
Assuming I can't add non-snmp devices, could someone point me in the right direction on extending Observium to add this functionality?
Ultimately, I want 4 monitors: ping, tcp protocol checks (custom ports), http(s) (simple or with response analysis) and ssh. If I can do that, then graphing the results will be trivial.
I realize there are other tools that have these features but I prefer the Observium interface.
Cheers,
Cory
Hi Cory,
We currently do not support adding non-snmp-enabled hosts. Quite some work will need to be done to support this; but there is no timeline for this at all.
The services checks are also deprecated, buggy and non-supported, unfortunately... You could implement this as a Unix-agent app on the Observium server itself, perhaps...
