This script will return the names of the different available temperatures. In my case, the correct CPU temp is called x86_pkg_temp. This one is 4th in the list, which is 0-based, so my CPU's thermal zone number is 3. While you are rooted into Proxmox, run the following command to get a list of all temperature files.
I am running HASSIO in a VM on UNRAID but would like to monitor the server conditions. One way to help with this is to monitor the performance of the Raspberry Pi itself. Home Assistant has several system-monitor components that can help with this.
Disk usage
@SeanM I would also like to see your conf for your setup. I’ve been trying to put some stuff together, but I just don’t get satisfied with the look. But it just pushes the configuration to the AP itself. When I configure Home Assistant, the IP address is of the AP. Which ever ESSID you are interested take the last number from the OID and append it to the OID for Channel Info and Tx Power and you’ll get those specific details.
Perfect to run on a Raspberry Pi or a local server. The System Monitor integration was introduced in Home Assistant pre 0.7, and it's used by 14% of the active installations. Note that the value returned will be in thousanths of a degree-Celcius, i.e. you need to divide it by 1000 to get the temperature. The process status is converted from one-letter-status to more easy-to-read words with color codes. This one will convert total memory to total memory used and remove the decimals.

The IP address or hostname of the system where Open Hardware Monitor is running. OpenHardwareMonitor must be running on the host, with “Remote web server” active. For testing, I simply disabled the network adapter on my docker VM.
This sensor will collect information about a specified process, it will store process name, status, username and PID as entity attributes. Multiply this sensor to collect status of multiple processes. This sensor will collect and present the server’s CPU temperature. This sensor might need to be tweaked if it is used in systems with multiple sensors. Very helpful, got my ping sensors all setup, had trouble loading the card from HACS though, didn’t return via search.

Use vim or nano to create a new python script using the template below, and make the necessary replacements for your thermal zone, HA hostname/port, and bearer token. The installation is quite easy if you follow the official instructions. The configuration of course depends on your needs but I only changed a couple of things. The first step to working with data about the Pis is to actually collect it. To do that in a simple and convenient way I am using the awesome work of ironsheep over on GitHub.
If you are running this on another one you need to provide the IP address/hostname of the smart home server with the MQTT server here. These also have tap_action and hold_actions on them. Holding on the database icon will call recorder.purge service keeping the last 3 days. Tapping on the log icon navigates to /dev-info/ page, and holding on it performs system_log.clear service. If no hardware sensor data is available (e.g., because the integration runs in a virtualized environment), the sensor entity will not be created. The systemmonitor sensor platform allows you to monitor disk usage, memory usage, CPU usage, and running processes.
You can also use this as a presence detection or device tracker system. Now, this is easier to view and also will result in Home Assistant automatically pushing this sensor data to InfluxDB which makes it available to Grafana. That is if you have set up Grafana like I described in my in-depth guide here. Adding this will result in four more entities on your dashboard which extract uptime, space for my external SSD, CPU and RAM usage.
After restarting Home Assistant, these sensors will show up and update their information every 15 seconds. The type of the information to display, please check the table below for details. I have been trying the last few days or so to get HA system monitor to see my network drives. Feel that alot of these option are outdated or not concluded to the resolution. In this post I will share how I set up an ASP.NET MVC 5 project as a SPA using Vue.js.
Inside the Horizontal Stack Card there is four Gauge Cards showing stats. Inside the Markdown Card it show uptime and process status. In this example it is showing the status of process “glances”.
Easily install other applications that will help you manage your home. Home Assistant integrates with over a thousand different devices and services. Thank you for reading and I will see you in my next article. To retrieve all available network interfaces on a Linux System, execute theifconfig command. The unit of measurement (Celsius vs. Fahrenheit) will be chosen based on the system configuration.
Free Space, Used Space and Total Size will be stored as entity attributes. System Bridge is an application that runs on your local machine to share system information via its API/WebSocket. You can also send commands to the device such as opening a URL or sending keyboard keypresses. Are you looking for a simple way to monitor devices on your network using PING from within Home Assistant? Maybe you are looking to create automations based on whether or not a device is online, comes online, or a website goes down.
I would like to have HA able to watch my hard drives on both computers letting me know how much space is left. System Monitor seems to be hat i am looking for to a point. It will witness what i have on the VM but not on the network drives. I am not sure if i need to mount the drives or samba to the drives or what arg are require to view the drive.
I also defined the base topic that the daemon is going to use for the updates. Under that it will place a sensor/yourPiName topic with the status and more info about your monitor. Raspberry Pis are awesome as a low power server, and I am using one myself for my smart home setup. As they usually run in headless mode without any display and are hidden somewhere it might take you too much time to notice when they run into any problem. It has one Vertical Stack Card with a Markdown Card on the top, and a Horizontal Stack Card on the bottom.
Now we have a way to push system monitoring info from the host system to Home Assistant running in a VM. The CPU temp will continue to update every 30 seconds as long as the host and the VM are both running. You could stop at this point if you are just looking for a way to check on your Pi from time to time. I was also looking for some alerts and graphs in Grafana so I kept going. Most of the data is “hidden” in the attributes of the main sensor as it is all send in one MQTT topic.
