Hi all,
I have taken over an Observium install and am trying to get it back up and
running since most of the new devices are not in it. Every device I add I have
to manually run the discovery and poller. I have checked the txt file in
/etc/cron.d/observium and it reads:
# Run a complete discovery of all devices once every 6 hours
33 */6 * * * root /opt/observium/observium-wrapper discovery >> /dev/null
2>&1
# Run automated discovery of newly added devices every 5 minutes
*/5 * * * * root /opt/observium/observium-wrapper discovery --host new >>
/dev/null 2>&1
# Run multithreaded poller wrapper every 5 minutes
*/5 * * * * root /opt/observium/observium-wrapper poller-wrapper.py 10 >>
/dev/null 2>&1
correct entry here should be:
|# Run multithreaded poller wrapper every 5 minutes */5 * * * * root
/opt/observium/observium-wrapper poller >> /dev/null 2>&1 |
# Run housekeeping script daily for syslog, eventlog and alert log
13 5 * * * root /opt/observium/housekeeping.php -ysel >> /dev/null 2>&1
# Run housekeeping script daily for rrds, ports, orphaned entries in the
database and performance data
47 4 * * * root /opt/observium/housekeeping.php -yrptb >> /dev/null 2>&1
Is it just a matter of creating this text file in this folder and it
automatically runs or am I missing a step to get it to run every 5 mins etc.
Thanks!
