Libre Hardware Monitor

Description

This connector enables hardware monitoring for processors, temperatures, fans, voltages, GPU, memory modules, physical disk of a computer.

Target

Typical platform: Any Windows system

Operating system: Microsoft Windows

Prerequisites

Leverages: Libre Hardware Monitor

Technology and protocols: WMI/WinRM

Examples

CLI

metricshub HOSTNAME -t win -c +LibreHardwareMonitor --wmi -u USER

metricshub.yaml

resourceGroups:
  <RESOURCE_GROUP>:
    resources:
      <HOSTNAME-ID>:
        attributes:
          host.name: <HOSTNAME> # Change with actual host name
          host.type: win
        selectConnectors: [ LibreHardwareMonitor ] # Optional, to load only this connector
        protocols:
          wmi:
            username: <USERNAME> # Change with actual credentials
            password: <PASSWORD> # Encrypted using metricshub-encrypt

Connector Activation Criteria

The Libre Hardware Monitor connector will be automatically activated, and its status will be reported as OK if all the below criteria are met:

  • Operating System is Microsoft Windows
  • The WMI query below to the managed host succeeds:
    • Namespace: root\LibreHardwareMonitor
    • WQL Query: SELECT Name FROM WMINET_InstrumentedAssembly
