Is there a guide on how to best setup alerts for all devices?
I found: http://www.observium.org/wiki/Alerting_Metrics_and_Attributes http://www.observium.org/wiki/Creating_an_Alert_Checker
I want to set thresholds for DISK, RAM, CPU, UP/DOWN, and RX/TX Limits for all devices. Is there a particular Device Association or Entity Association I'm supposed to use?
I figured I would set some general and then get specific with alerts by hostname for specific instances I want to monitor.

To match all devices, use *, to match all entities use *
To match all IOS devices with 'core' in their hostname :
os equals ios hostname match *core*
To match all 'eth0' ports on your linux servers you could do :
device
os equals linux
entity
port_label equals eth0
It's fairly straightforward, once you get used to it. It does require a tiny bit of understanding of the information we get back from devices in places, we really do need to improve the documentation on this soon!

Hi,
How do you debug alerts to see where they are stopping? I think that I got my mailer messed up or copied one too many lines of data. I found how to send mail from /opt/Observium/includes/defaults.inc.php (I think) I used the alerts that came with the default subscription install and configuration options from the Observium site.
If I can get one of these going I think I can tinker to figure out the rest.
I set one up for if any port goes down as follows:
Check Conditions: ---------------------------- ifAdminStatus equals up ifOperStatus equals down
Device Match: Os equals *
Entity Match: Hostname match *
Relevant configs.php: ---------------------------- // Enable alerter $config['poller-wrapper']['alerter'] = TRUE;
// Mailer backend Settings
$config['email_backend'] = 'mail'; // Mail backend. Allowed: "mail" (PHP's built-in), "sendmail", "smtp". $config['email_from'] = NULL; // Mail from. Default: "OBSERVIUM Network Monitor" <observium@`hostname`> $config['email_sendmail_path'] = '/usr/sbin/sendmail'; // The location of the sendmail program. $config['email_smtp_host'] = 'relay.purafilter2000.com'; // Outgoing SMTP server name. $config['email_smtp_port'] = 25; // The port to connect. $config['email_smtp_timeout'] = 10; // SMTP connection timeout in seconds. //$config['email_smtp_secure'] = NULL; // Enable encryption. Use 'tls' or 'ssl' //$config['email_smtp_auth'] = FALSE; // Whether or not to use SMTP authentication. //$config['email_smtp_username'] = NULL; // SMTP username. //$config['email_smtp_password'] = NULL; // Password for SMTP authentication.
// Set up a default alerter (email to a single address) $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['descr'] = "Default Email Alert"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['type'] = "email"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['contact'] = "ITObserviumNotify@purafilter2000.com"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['enable'] = TRUE; $config['email_from'] = "'Observium Alert' ITObserviumNotify@purafilter2000.com";
$config['alerts']['email']['enable'] = FALSE; // Enable email alerts $config['alerts']['interval'] = 86400; // How frequently to re-send a notification for a continuing alert condition // In seconds. Default is 1 day. $config['alerts']['port']['ifdown'] = FALSE; // Generate alerts for ports that go down
// Port bandwidth threshold percentage %age utilisation above this will cause an alert
$config['alerts']['port_util_alert'] = FALSE; // Disabled as default $config['alerts']['port_util_perc'] = 85; // %age above which to alert
$config['enable_inventory'] = 1; # Enable Inventory
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I think the alerter examples in the defaults file are for the old alert system. Use this instead: http://www.observium.org/wiki/Configuration_Options#Alert_Settings
Here's my setup:
$config['email_backend'] = 'sendmail'; $config['email_from'] = 'observium@example.com';
$config['alerts']['email']['default'] = 'me@example.com'; $config['alerts']['email']['default_only'] = TRUE; $config['alerts']['email']['enable'] = TRUE; -- Cameron Moore

Ok. So I listed way too much stuff. Also, I need to specify something to send mail. I deleted all of what I had before for alerts and just put what you have (modified with my emails).
'mail' doesn't seem to work. I'll test out send mail and the other(s) to see what's best. I'll be back when I'm stuck again.
Thank you kindly for your support. Its appreciated.

Install and configure an MTA on the Observium host. I'm not sure if the SMTP stuff works (it was written, removed and rewritten due to GPL assclownery), so it's way easier to just let the MTA handle that stuff and send with PHP's builting mail functions.

Hi,
How do you debug alerts to see where they are stopping? I think that I got my mailer messed up or copied one too many lines of data. I found how to send mail from /opt/Observium/includes/defaults.inc.php (I think) I used the alerts that came with the default subscription install and configuration options from the Observium site.
If I can get one of these going I think I can tinker to figure out the rest.
I set one up for if any port goes down as follows:
Check Conditions:
ifAdminStatus equals up ifOperStatus equals down
Device Match: Os equals *
Entity Match: Hostname match *
Relevant configs.php:
// Enable alerter $config['poller-wrapper']['alerter'] = TRUE;
// Mailer backend Settings
$config['email_backend'] = 'mail'; // Mail backend. Allowed: "mail" (PHP's built-in), "sendmail", "smtp". $config['email_from'] = NULL; // Mail from. Default: "OBSERVIUM Network Monitor" <observium@`hostname`> $config['email_sendmail_path'] = '/usr/sbin/sendmail'; // The location of the sendmail program. $config['email_smtp_host'] = 'relay.purafilter2000.com'; // Outgoing SMTP server name. $config['email_smtp_port'] = 25; // The port to connect. $config['email_smtp_timeout'] = 10; // SMTP connection timeout in seconds. //$config['email_smtp_secure'] = NULL; // Enable encryption. Use 'tls' or 'ssl' //$config['email_smtp_auth'] = FALSE; // Whether or not to use SMTP authentication. //$config['email_smtp_username'] = NULL; // SMTP username. //$config['email_smtp_password'] = NULL; // Password for SMTP authentication.
// Set up a default alerter (email to a single address) $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['descr'] = "Default Email Alert"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['type'] = "email"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['contact'] = "ITObserviumNotify@purafilter2000.com"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['enable'] = TRUE; $config['email_from'] = "'Observium Alert' ITObserviumNotify@purafilter2000.com";
$config['alerts']['email']['enable'] = FALSE; // Enable email alerts $config['alerts']['interval'] = 86400; // How frequently to re-send a notification for a continuing alert condition // In seconds. Default is 1 day. $config['alerts']['port']['ifdown'] = FALSE; // Generate alerts for ports that go down
// Port bandwidth threshold percentage %age utilisation above this will cause an alert
$config['alerts']['port_util_alert'] = FALSE; // Disabled as default $config['alerts']['port_util_perc'] = 85; // %age above which to alert
$config['enable_inventory'] = 1; # Enable Inventory
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

To match all devices, use *, to match all entities use *
To match all IOS devices with 'core' in their hostname :
os equals ios hostname match *core*
To match all 'eth0' ports on your linux servers you could do :
device
os equals linux
entity
port_label equals eth0
It's fairly straightforward, once you get used to it. It does require a tiny bit of understanding of the information we get back from devices in places, we really do need to improve the documentation on this soon!

I figured I would set some general and then get specific with alerts by hostname for specific instances I want to monitor.

So postfix would work?
In Community I configured it as a relay to our exchange server and have an ALC for the LAN IP of Observium to be able to use a Mail Hub Transport in exchange.

In the database you can specify the match lines to be ORed or ANDed. It's not exposed in the UI yet because I'm and idiot and forgot to do it a million times.
You can also do multiple match sets for the same alerter, but that also isn't possible in the UI yet.

I found:

http://www.observium.org/wiki/Creating_an_Alert_Checker [2]
I want to set thresholds for DISK, RAM, CPU, UP/DOWN, and RX/TX Limits for all devices.
Is there a particular Device Association or Entity Association I'm supposed to use?
I figured I would set some general and then get specific with alerts by hostname for specific instances I want to monitor.
