What sort of things do y'all monitor with Grafana / Beszel / etc.?

Have been working on my Grafana dashboard recently and am thinking about what else I could add. So far, I have:

  • CPU usage and temperature
  • Memory usage
  • Network usage
  • Backrest daily backup status
  • SMART status of drives
  • CPU and memory usage of containers

Anything else that you find useful? I have a few other ideas, but am curious what others have up. Is everything on one scrollable dashboard, or do you have it organized across multiple?

I already had influxdb+grafana setup, so it was easy to pump data to, plus I was able to then match it up with cpu temps and such from my Kubernetes nodes. I like having all my data in one place.

That said, Tasmota has native Matter support and I now have a few ESP32’s controlling sockets, lights, etc., that integrate with Home Assistant.
