problem in graphics of more than 1000 devices

hello can you please support me with the following situation I have, I installed Obervium in a virtual machine with 8 Gb of RAM and 8 cores, which have an Intel Xeon processor E5-1620 v3 at 3.50 Ghz, hard drive of 200 GB, has installed a version of Ubuntu 16.04.5 with Observium version CE17.9.0 when it had 30 devices added works well in terms of graphics, but when we added more antennas in total 1085 at the time it has become slow and also the graphics shows incomplete of any element, cpu, memory, ports, etc, the devices aggregates are radios of ubiquiti and mikrotik, I attach the images where it shows the commented of the graphics
graph a month from a port
graph to 6 hours a port
the same situation occurs with the graphics of memory, processor, memory or any ports of all devices
Wilbert.

It seems that your server is probably not fast enough.
You may be able to fix this somewhat by upgrading to the latest version and using php7.2 on Ubuntu 18.04 or something else very new.

Hi Wilbert, have a look at your I/O usage. Maybe your storage is too slow. I had similar problems and migrate from a VM to a physical server with SSDs.

Yes, I/O can also be an issue.
This can be partially mitigated by using rrdcached.
You can also disable modules that you don't really need, like FDB collection.
Thanks, Adam.

Hi,
Derived from the first recommendation, update to ubuntu 18.04.01, also update to the latest version of Observium 18.9.9420, also update my version of php to 7.2 and after all that the behavior is the same.

This is probably I/O related then.
Your system isn't fast enough, you need either more CPU, more storage throughout or both.

Hi Wilbert
I have a 4 Core with HT Xeon E3 1270 CPU @ 3.5Ghz 32GB Ram
Then 3 Raid 1 Arrays on Fast SSD Drives 1 for System, 1 for MySQL and 1 for RRD
The RRD one has to be on a Enterprise SSD which can handle big amounts of writes (several 10GB/5min) else it will get broken very fast. To reduce writes on the SSD I also recommend using rrdcached.

Use RRDCACHED!

Hello Mike,
I've tried to setup observium with rrdcache but the polling stop working after apply configuration. However, permissions seems to be fine.
Nevertheless, when i've running poller.php -d -h myswitch" and got snmp timeouts but when run same command through command line works fine.
CMD[/usr/bin/snmpbulkwalk -Cr'100' -v2c -c *** -Pu -OQUs -m IF-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs/rfc:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp 'udp':'********':'161' ifXEntry]
CMD EXITCODE[1] CMD RUNTIME[2.0631s] STDOUT[
] STDERR[ Timeout: No Response from udp:********:161 ] SNMP STATUS[FALSE] SNMP ERROR[#1002 - Request timeout]
I've a lot of switch with same IOS and same module but just two of them are with this behavior.
Any idea?
Best Regards,

This is probably because you're polling through a firewall which has session or other rate limits.

this switch and server don't have firewall. This "issue" start happening after upgrade to last CE version.

I've tried to setup observium with rrdcache but the polling stop working after apply configuration. However, permissions seems to be fine.
Nevertheless, when i've running poller.php -d -h myswitch" and got snmp timeouts but when run same command through command line works fine.
CMD[/usr/bin/snmpbulkwalk -Cr'100' -v2c -c *** -Pu -OQUs -m IF-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs/rfc:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp 'udp':'********':'161' ifXEntry]
CMD EXITCODE[1] CMD RUNTIME[2.0631s] STDOUT[
] STDERR[ Timeout: No Response from udp:********:161 ] SNMP STATUS[FALSE] SNMP ERROR[#1002 - Request timeout]
I've a lot of switch with same IOS and same module but just two of them are with this behavior.
Any idea?

I have a 4 Core with HT Xeon E3 1270 CPU @ 3.5Ghz 32GB Ram
Then 3 Raid 1 Arrays on Fast SSD Drives 1 for System, 1 for MySQL and 1 for RRD
The RRD one has to be on a Enterprise SSD which can handle big amounts of writes (several 10GB/5min) else it will get broken very fast. To reduce writes on the SSD I also recommend using rrdcached.

I don't think any version will fix that your devices sometimes fail to respond.
The particular query you posted is for ifXEntry. We've been collecting this table by BULKWALK the same way for about 9 years, with the addition of max-rep by default a few years ago.
This is most likely an issue with your devices.

This is only device/network trouble. (Not configurations/observium/etc)
Try run manually same command and small modifications:
(same) snmpbulkwalk -Cr'100' -v2c -c *** -Pu -OQUs -m IF-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs/rfc:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp 'udp':'********':'161' ifXEntry (with timeout 3 sec) snmpbulkwalk -t 3 -Cr'100' -v2c -c *** -Pu -OQUs -m IF-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs/rfc:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp 'udp':'********':'161' ifXEntry (set minimal repetition) snmpbulkwalk -v2c -c *** -Pu -OQUs -m IF-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs/rfc:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp 'udp':'********':'161' ifXEntry (no bulk) snmpwalk -v2c -c *** -Pu -OQUs -m IF-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs/rfc:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp 'udp':'********':'161' ifXEntry (no bulk with timeout 3) snmpwalk -t 3 -v2c -c *** -Pu -OQUs -m IF-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs/rfc:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp 'udp':'********':'161' ifXEntry
you can stop on first responded.

Hello Mike,
All comands that you send me works fine without any timeout or error.
However, this seems to be related with size of ARP table in this switch.
Can I do anything to get around this?

Sure, go to the device properties->modules> find arp-table and click disable. This should disable ARP-tabel discovery for this device

Hello
We have in our company IceWarp as Mailserver.
This solution has a reduced OID Infomration, take a look here. https://esupport.icewarp.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/180/16/sn...
My problem is that I'm not able to add this host as a device, I think the add process need some other OID to recognize IceWarp as SNMP Device. If I could add them I would us the custom id to make something visible.
Am I right assuming, that in the current Observium Version this is not possible?
Regards Walter
