Sanitizing table cam in the nav database
by Nik Mitev 14 Feb '12

14 Feb '12

Hello, I have created a pilot installation of NAV, currently handling 16 production switches. It seems that the cam table, holding the MAC addresses seen on the switches is growing very fast and holding large amounts of redundant information, in some cases up to 250 entries per MAC address. I am looking for ways to restrict the amount of history kept, as we only need to know which switch/port a MAC is on, rather than a full history of online/offline status changes. This can of course be done by scripts, I was wondering though is there any relevant built-in functionality already present? Thanks, Nik

Timezone problem
by Adrian Bucurica 05 Jan '12

05 Jan '12

Hello everyone, We've just started to test NAV and I have a strange problem with the timezone reported in NAV. It seems that NAV reports all operations using timezone GMT+1 (Western Europe) but on localhost we have configured a different timezone: diff -s /etc/localtime /usr/share/zoneinfo/`cat /etc/timezone` Files /etc/localtime and /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Chicago are identical We are using Debian Squeeze 64-bit and NAV 3.10 installed from source. What am I missing? Regards, Adrian

NAV 3.10.1 is now available for download at Launchpad: https://launchpad.net/nav/3.10/3.10.1 This maintenance release contains fixes for the following reported issues, as well as a few other minor tweaks: * LP#903096 (Ampersand in organization id crashes ipdevinfo) * LP#904605 (netboxinfo subcat column links to a failing page) * LP#906763 (SyntaxError in powersupplywatch.py on Python < 2.6) * LP#906845 (Status on front page shows device on maintenance as down) * LP#906850 (Alert Profiles NoReverseMatch error under Django 1.3) * LP#907193 (COMMIT/ROLLBACK error after deleting device (Django 1.3)) * LP#907204 (seeddb crashes while adding an already existing switch) * LP#907741 (NAV 3.10 pping inaccurately reports multitudes of devices as down when pinging self) * LP#907772 (navtopology crashes with TypeError) * LP#910849 (ipdevpoll wastes time and I/O bandwidth with unnecessary SQL UPDATEs) * LP#910855 (navtopology doesn't avoid multiple instances) * LP#911684 (radius accounting log crashes when searching) * LP#911786 (servicemon stops sending events) Also, as Adrian Bucurica discovered, there may be issues with how NAV handles time unless you're in the Europe/Oslo (CET/CEST) time zone. nav.conf has been updated to reflect the availability of the TIME_ZONE option.

When I delete a device I get an "Error: Transaction managed block ended with pending COMMIT/ROLLBACK" The device is deleted, but the error message (in red) is noisy and confusing.

Ugly and confusing error messages in /alertprofiles/
by Ingeborg Hellemo 20 Des '11

20 Des '11

NAV 3.9.4 When editing filters and other items in Alert profiles we get several error messages, but the things we are trying to do is indeed saved. Is this a NAV issue or our version of Django? In Alert Profiles -> Alert addresses -> New address When I click "Save new" I get the following error, but when I go back to <https://nav.uit.no/alertprofiles/address/> I see that the address is saved. ---------- NoReverseMatch at /alertprofiles/address/save/ Reverse for 'alertprofiles-address-detail' with arguments '(None,)' and keyword arguments '{}' not found.

Issues with status-page and box down
by Ingeborg Hellemo 20 Des '11

20 Des '11

2 issues really: At the moment I have 3 boxes down, one of which is on maintenance. 1. The "Status now" box on the NAV front page shows also the box which is on maintenance as down. Is this a bug or a feature? NAV pre 3.9 was silent about boxes on maintenance on the front page. 2. https://nav.example.com/status/ shows correctly one box as on maintenance, but the "IP devices down" is empty! I have to click on the history-tag to find my two boxes (which went dows yesterday, but are still down). --Ingeborg -- Ingeborg Østrem Hellemo -- ingeborg.hellemo(a)uit.no Dep. of Information Technology --- Univ. of Tromsø

Bug in reports, subcategories
by Ingeborg Hellemo 20 Des '11

20 Des '11

We use subcategories extensively. There is a bug in the report generator related to subcats. Howto reproduce: * Goto Home > Report > Server (or some other category with subcategories). * Click on subcats for a server which belongs to a subcategory. You are now in <https://nav.uit.no/report/netboxinfo?netboxid=(#ofnetbox)>. * Click on the name of a subcategory * You will now enter https://nav.uit.no/report/netboxinfo?category=(Name of subcat)> Lo and behold: Netboxinfo Configuration error! The report generator is not able to do such things. column "category" does not exist LINE 1: ...IN netboxcategory USING (netboxid)) AS foo WHERE category =... ^ -- Ingeborg Østrem Hellemo -- ingeborg.hellemo(a)uit.no Dep. of Information Technology --- Univ. of Tromsø

Announcement: NAV 3.10.0 and 3.9.4 released
by Morten Brekkevold 16 Des '11

16 Des '11

The newest feature release of NAV, version 3.10.0, is now available for download at Launchpad: https://launchpad.net/nav/3.10/3.10.0 The last bugfix release of the 3.9 series is also available at https://launchpad.net/nav/3.9/3.9.4 Both releases include fixes for the following issues: * LP#898992 (ipdevinfo displays all ports as blocking whereas stpblock report confirms that they're not) * LP#900723 (No SW version on Cisco 4506E L3 switch) * LP#900779 (smsd crashes when discarding non-dispatchable messages with non- ASCII chars) * LP#901623 (mcc does not update maximum threshold value for interfaces) * LP#903128 (servicemon/pping opens a new connection on any database error) * LP#903681 (room report should include position) * LP#904178 (smsd removes permanently failed dispatchers even when it should ignore permanent failures) The 3.10.0 release also fixes these issues: * LP#744940 (geomap should default to a sensible start map) * LP#894727 (No server software versions since NAV 3.5) The 3.10.0 release adds the following user-visible features and improvements: * VLAN subtopology detection has been rewritten to Python. The old networkDiscovery Java program is now deprecated. * Alerts when SNMP agents stop responding. * Alerts on power failure SNMP traps from UPS units. UPS-MIB (RFC 1628) and proprietary MIBs from Eaton Corporation, APC and MGE are supported. * Configurable port link status monitoring and alerting in ipdevpoll, independent of SNMP trap configuration. * Alerts on redundant power supply and fan failures on Cisco and HP devices. * Statistics from all environment sensors (such as temperature, humidity, light, sound, etc.) detectable through either ENTITY-SENSOR-MIB (RFC 3433), CISCO-ENVMON-MIB or IT-WATCHDOGS-MIB (IT Watchdogs WeatherGoose) are now collected via Cricket. * pping can now ping IPv6 hosts. * ipdevinfo and Machine Tracker now perform bulk DNS lookups in parallel, improving page load times when DNS is slow. Don't forget to check out the release notes before/during/after upgrading to NAV 3.10. Please report bugs at https://launchpad.net/nav/+filebug :-) Binary packages for Debian will be made available as soon as possible.
