All, now that I have my temperatures monitored, I'm looking for a system to do something with this information. Some thoughts: - trigger action when temperatures/fan-speeds are at warning-level - trigger action when temperatures/fan-speeds are at error-level - trigger action can be: log warning to syslog, send mail, show message on display (HTPC), kill process(es) that uses most CPU, start custom shell script, decrease cpu speed, shutdown system, .. - store measurements in database (also add e.g. cpu usage) and create nice graphs for trend analysis A cron job with some custom shell scripting (that only fulfills my personal requirements) might do, but first I want to search for something I can re-use. What I found: - psensors, can show notification on screen (only when using Unity?) http://wpitchoune.net/blog/psensor/ - opsview (nagios fork?) http://www.opsview.com/whats-new/blog/monitoring-server-temperature Both are not really what I want.. psensors is quite limited and I could easily miss a pop-up when xbmc or steam is running, while opsview/nagios is designed for large companies and not for personal use. Do you know any other solution that might fit my purpose? Second question: if something has to be made, a cron job starting sensors might not be optimal (although the load will be acceptable on a desktop machine). Should it be written against the libsensors library, or should it really be a notification initiated by sensors daemon itself?
