Heya, so I have now recently set up a bunch of different services on my debian server. Wondering if anyone has any suggestion to any applications I can host to view disk usage - cpu/gpu performance, fans, etc etc… basically a nice and clean UI over the hardware. Already working on setting up a homepage for viewing the health of my docker containers, but need something for hardware level. 10+ bonus points if someone could mention an app that I can mange my other disks with, as in format, partition etc.
Thanks for any insights as always 🌻
Cockpit covers some of that and is quite useful as a webconsole in general.
I use netdata: https://www.netdata.cloud/
The UI is mobile friendly, it can basically display any metrics, and sends email notifications on problems, really easy to set up
+1 for Netdata, very fast and a lot of alerts have already been set-up. It also has a lot of plugins, as well as the ability to use Prometheus metric endpoints. The local dashboard is near parity with the cloud one, and setting it up is as easy as running their bootstrap scripts. There is decent documentation too, if one gets stuck.
Netdata is fantastic, but not sure I’d call the UI mobile friendly (unless I’m missing something? 😂) To me, that’s really one of the only weak points with it.
There was an update recenty ( I dont remember when) , and the current one is usable. I remember it was terrible, it had scaling issues, now it’s alright for me.
There is also a barebone third party android app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kpots.netdata
Netdata would be my recommendation, but that may be a little much for the situation. I have about 5 Debian VMs for different things and one of them is a netdata server I run which collects data from itself, the other VMs, a separate minipc I have for containers, and the host OS.
Otherwise, slap btop on there and watch the pretty terminal graph
Maybe btop+ or Prometheus.
If you are using docker, casaos is awesome. It’s not actually an os but gives you a nice ui for viewing your hard drive space, traffic, and running containers.
