Git Repositories Moved

Benjamin Reed — 2013-04-20T18:19:51

The OpenNMS Git Repositories have moved!  The SourceForge repositories
have been kept as read-only, but if you wish to get future updates,
you will have to switch to the new repositories on GitHub.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Updating Your Git Clone: Read-Only Access
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For read-only access, you can switch your git clone to the new origin by
running the following command:

  git remote set-url origin git://github.com/OpenNMS/opennms.git

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Updating Your Git Clone: Write Access (for OpenNMS Developers)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you have read-write access, create a github account, then change your
origin by running the following command:

  git remote set-url origin git< at >github.com:OpenNMS/opennms.git

Hello Fellow ONMS people….

                Does anyone have a way to have opennms send a syslog  OUT as a notification? Inbound syslog was easy…but all I can find on the outbound syslog capabilities is a post from David in 2008 referring to the notificationcommands.xml.  I look and there is no syslog in there.

Basically, instead of sending an email….we need opennms to send a syslog to another device.

All insight is appreciated.

Thanks

TP

Upcoming OpenNMS Events

Tarus Balog — 2013-01-09T14:07:28

Gang:

Just a few reminders:

We are having training at the Red Hat Headquarters in London later this
month:

http://www.opennms.com/training

There are still a few seats left so if you have been wanting to get up
to speed on OpenNMS and you happen to be in Europe, this is a great
opportunity. The next training in the US will be in April.

Speaking of training, the biggest OpenNMS event of the year, the OpenNMS
Users Conference will be held in March at the University of Fulda in
Germany. This is a great opportunity to learn about the latest in
OpenNMS as well as to meet the people behind the project.

Early bird registration ends on 15 January:

Hope to see you at one or more of these events.

OpenNMS is Hiring!

Tarus Balog — 2013-01-03T15:37:30

I hope everyone had a great holiday. I enjoyed it, but I did miss
getting a couple of gifts: two top-notch Java developers.

OpenNMS is hiring. In our quest to become the de facto network
management platform of choice, we've experienced an increased demand for
new features and we are now in a position to hire a couple of new
developers. We are are looking for both a senior and a more junior
person to join our close-knit team to make OpenNMS the best it can be.

If you are interested, you should have wicked Java skills and be able to
demonstrate how you've used them over the years. OpenNMS heavily
leverages the Spring Framework, as well as Hibernate, and we use Maven
to build it all. Other technologies we use are (but not limited to)
OSGi, Google Web Toolkit (GWT), Jetty, JBoss, Vaadin and Karaf. Yes, we
like to play will all the new Java toys.

We also rely on junit tests, so knowledge of Agile methods such as test
driven development are a big plus. We are a network management solutions
company, so experienc

OpenNMS Training in 2013

Tarus Balog — 2012-12-11T14:13:58

Gang:

Hot on the heels of yesterday's announcement of the OpenNMS Foundation,
I wanted to point out that we have a lot of training scheduled in 2013.

The next class will be held at Red Hat's London Headquarters the last
week in January. Red Hat has been very kind to offer us the use of their
mobile classroom laptops as well as a conference room in the heart of
London. Space is limited, so if this interests you please register soon.

In February, our partner in Germany, Nethinks, is offering training for
the first time in the German language. They have scheduled three classes
next year in Fulda.

In April we will have our first training course at OpenNMS headquarters
in the US. We will have two or three more classes next year, depending
on interest, but April is the first one on the schedule.

More information can be found at http://www.opennms.com/training.

And don't forget that there will also be training opportunities at the
User Conference in March: http://www.opennms.eu.

It is with great pleasure that I can announce the formation of an
independent OpenNMS users group called the OpenNMS Foundation:

http://www.adventuresinoss.com/?p=2925

If you are reading this, you are already in at least some small part a
member of the OpenNMS community. I am hoping this Foundation will both
make you more confident about using OpenNMS as well as getting more
involved.

Hope to see you in Fulda in March.

Bughunting - alarm memo feature

Ronny Trommer — 2012-11-09T18:21:05

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi there,

we developed a small enhancement to the alarm handling workflow in the
WebUI. The development part was mainly driven in the master bleeding
edge branch. The use case was requested many times so the OpenNMS gang
gave green light to backport this feature to the 1.10 branch which
should be end up in a stable release.

In summary the feature allows to document alarms over the WebUI and
added two new fields in the alarm detail view. The first field, called a
sticky memo, is assigned exactly to this alarm and can give additional
information about an ongoing outage. The second field is a journal memo
which is assigned to a resolved reduction key. So it is possible to give
additional documentation on a whole class of alarms. The feature is
documented in the OpenNMS Wiki [1] and is available in 1.10.7-SNAPSHOT
and bleeding edge master and is in the queue for the next stable release
minor release of OpenNMS.

We are happy about real-world experience and bug rep

Just a heads up that we will be offering official OpenNMS training at
the University of Southampton this September:

OpenNMS training is the fastest way to come up to speed on OpenNMS, and
we hope that by providing it in the UK it will be more convenient than
the US for many of you.

P.S. We are working to schedule training in California for October. I'll

Users Conference Europe 2013 Planning

Tarus Balog — 2012-06-01T12:02:31

Gang:

Just a quick note that we are beginning to plan for the fifth annual
OpenNMS users conference to be held in 2013.

At the last conference we came up with a European users group mailing list:

https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/opennms-europe

and we hope to involve as many people in the planning process as
possible. If you are interested in becoming involved in a Europe-based
users group, please sign up to the list, which at the moment is very low
traffic.

Also, just a reminder that there is still time to register for the
America's user conference:

Final Reminder: Early Bird Discount Ends Fridayfor OUCA

The first ever OpenNMS Users Conference Americas will be held the last
week in June at the University of Minnesota:

http://www.opennms.org/wiki/OUCA2012

The cost for three days of intense OpenNMS discussion is $300, and if
you register before Friday it's only $250. We also have discounted dorm
rooms available which makes this one of the least expensive ways to get
OpenNMS training available.

OpenNMS 1.10.2 on Hold,OpenNMS 1.10.3 Coming Soon

Tarus Balog — 2012-05-18T16:59:23

Gang:

We've discovered a nasty bug in provisiond in 1.10.2. It's so nasty that
we need to release a 1.10.3 with the fix, but we want to do some further
testing, so 1.10.3 will be out on Monday, Tuesday at the latest.

If you have already upgraded and you are experiencing issues with
synchronizing provisioning groups, you can active the "testing"
repository and upgrade to a 1.10.3-0 version that contains the fix.

http://www.opennms.org/wiki/Tutorial_Choosing_a_Release

For those of you who detest detail, you can skip this next part.

The problem arose from an attempt to fix an issue at a client with a) a
large network and b) a lot of provisioning changes. They were
experiencing file handle leaks, and we believe we have found an issue
with a library that we import into OpenNMS. We applied the fix and this
leak disappeared.

Unfortunately, the fix allowed a deadlock condition. A deadlock is a
nasty little loop which occurs when one part of the code is waiting on
another part of the code to finish, and that se

Here at OpenNMS we like to say we can use the management application to

So how about a drink machine?

We set out to do just that, and the result is the OpenVND project:

This is how we manage the soda machine in the office, and we hope it

Gang:

I am happy to announce that we have officially released OpenNMS 1.10 -
the first new stable release since June of 2010. A lot of work went into
this release, and although the web user interface has not changed much,
this version of OpenNMS should be more stable and better performing than
any version before it.

We delayed the release by 10 days in order to document a lot of the
changes. You can visit the new documentation here:
