The record

Purpose: PVE Hardware Monitor is a real-time hardware monitoring dashboard for Proxmox VE hosts.
Monitoring: It displays fan speeds, CPU, NVMe and chipset temperatures, battery status, IPMI sensors, uptime, load average and memory usage.
IPMI features: For supported servers, it reports fan speeds, temperatures, power consumption, PSU status and voltage rails.
Fan controls: Silent, Normal and Boost fan profiles are available on ASUS laptops that support fan_boost_mode.
History chart: The dashboard includes a five-minute rolling chart for RPM, temperatures and power draw.
Sensor setup: The installer detects available sensors and configures their paths automatically.
Integrations: It reads data from Linux hwmon, embedded controller registers, IPMI through ipmitool, sysfs battery information and procfs system metrics.
Deployment: The documented installation runs on a Proxmox host and serves the dashboard at port 9099.
API: The project documents a GET /api/status endpoint that returns sensor data as JSON and a POST /api/mode endpoint for ASUS laptop fan profiles.
Dependencies: The README describes the API as using only the Python standard library, with no pip installs required.
Compatibility: The project reports testing on an ASUS GL503VM, a Dell PowerEdge R740 and Proxmox VE 8.x and 9.x.
Limits: The project describes itself as early-stage, says hardware testing is limited, and notes that out-of-band IPMI lanplus is not supported.
Support: The README directs users to open a GitHub issue with their hardware model, Proxmox version and diagnostic output when reporting bugs.
License and security: The repository includes an MIT license; its license text provides the software as-is without warranty.
