CPU Temp and HDD S.M.A.R.T. Status - how do I see these?

[bearhntr]

I have just installed Proxmox VE 7.2-3 (and upgraded to 7.2-11) on an HP Z240 Workstation with 512 GB SSD and 64GB RAM. I have installed the lm-sensors under the SHELL, and I am getting CPU temp there (see image) but I do not see these anywhere in the Console. I am moving over from vmWare ESXi - of which I am familiar and can see both of these.



This shows that it is there and enabled - but I cannot see it in the Console.

What exactly do mean with "Console"?

If you mean the webUI...this isn't officially supported (but you can google for some hacky modifications to add CPU temperatures).
See for example here: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/temperature.67755/

But you can see the SMART Values in Datacenter->proxmox->Discs click on a device and press Show SMART Values.

If you want extended monitoring, then I'd suggest to setup a monitoring server stack, like telegraf, influxdb, grafana

I had looked at a few of them -- this one, seemed interesting, but the format of some of the lines do not match what they say to change: https://www.reddit.com/r/homelab/comments/rhq56e/displaying_cpu_temperature_in_proxmox_summery_in/

I tried that -- it is greyed out -- why I posted the message... :-(

Not familiar with any of those. Got any good links/tutorials?

click on a device and press Show SMART Values.

@bearhntr just read: Click on the line /dev/sda and then Show SMART becomes available.

I am also hoping -- as I have enabled IOMMU and can see the INTEL - Thermal Sensors in PCI DEVICES - that I can pass this information into the VMs. Once that I more commonly use (pfSense and HomeAssistant)

LOL - Well color me SHOCKED. Did not think to do that. THANK YOU

As I said for monitoring, setup a monitoring stack.
