I was looking to monitor a few more stats with RRD, namely :
temperature, fans, power supply watts (iLO), cpufreq, local disk space, local disk activity, SSD Host_Writes per drive, and others.

Then I suddenly tough, why not add them direly to Proxmox webui ?
Adding those graph on the Node Summary would be really great.

So 2 ways,
1) hack the code
2) Submit idea to Proxmox so it can be incorporated.

For #2, I'd see a button called {add|edit} a graph at the top.
It would pop up a box with :
Label Title : Graph name
X axis unit : (selection : refresh rate in seconds)
Y axis unit : (selection : decimal, integer, %) (type : degC, GB, Gb, Ghz, Watt ...)
Value N Name : Legend name Value N cmd : (enter bash command that return only unit)
ex :
Value 1 name : CPU #1 temp Value 1 cmd : sensors | grep -oP 'Core 0.*?\+\K[0-9.]+' | sed -n 1p
Value 2 name : CPU #2 temp Value 2 cmd : sensors | grep -oP 'Core 0.*?\+\K[0-9.]+' | sed -n 2p

More ideas :
- It would also be an idea to add an alarm (email) if it reach a certain point.
- Save/load templates for servers -> to github for sharing

I think this would be a great addition to Proxmox as it could get quick visuals.

In hope that it would be added to the todo list.
Thanks
