Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Those are good questions. I would prefer somewhere in the page of proxmox to have this info. If that is not feasible for any amount of reasons, second best option is to have a service to have a dashboard page. I did forget about graphana, but I can look into it
Yeah Proxmox leaves a lot to be desired in terms of metrics. However, metrics are supported out of the box. Bad news, you probably won't get what you want within proxmox. Good news, you have another project you get to undertake! Hooray!
Like I said, Proxmox supports metrics out of the box. If you go Cluster -> Metric Server you'll be able to see that you can add a metric server. The first iteration I did with proxmox I added an InfluxDB container which then proxmox can talk to (yes they can be on the same host), and then proxmox will start pumping metrics into InfluxDB. (It uses Telegraf under the hood). Then, you can also run Grafana, add your InfluxDB as a data source, and then you have a sweet metrics dashboard. There are a lot of pre-built dashboards already made that look great, and you can customize from there.
You can also use Graphite, I personally haven't used it, but I also dropped Influx over time too. These things evolve in that sort of way. That's how I'd get set up and started though.
