Hey everyone,

I have an unraid server and over the years I’ve gathered quite a lot of tools, some of which are now exposed to the net.

I’ve been mostly checking on my server every once in a while to see if things are healthy, but I would like a more central version to look into the health of my network, any issues from docker logs, etc.

Anyone got a good ui for that? (preferably deployed through docker)

    Dang, that’s a lot of seperate parts for 1 “simple” task

    Agree, but this setup (node-exporter + Prometheus + Grafana) allows for a lot of expansion and customization. I’m sure there are simpler tools that tell you your computer status, and it’s up to you to see which fits more your use-case.

    but just seems like there could be an easier way

    I’ve felt that way before. But in this case of node-exporter and Prometheus, it’s way simpler. You don’t even need Docker, and the installation for both tools is basically a single line that you can copy and paste from their documentation.

    Configuring Prometheus to accept node-exporter is a bit harder I admit, but again you can simply copy and paste the documentation example. The whole process should take like ~10 minutes if you follow the documentation.
