Hello everyone! 👋 I'm a tech enthusiast who loves testing things at home and running a small homelab. I currently have two Proxmox hosts running various services. These aren’t "enterprise-grade servers" just "regular machines" and I don’t have RAID setups to have greater redundancy or remote management interfaces like iDRAC or iLO to easily check disk health.
While Proxmox includes a SMART tool, I found it limited and not very user-friendly. I tried several other tools, but most were either too complex to set up or didn’t really work for my needs.
So, with zero programming experience and a lot of help from artificial intelligence, I created ProxmoxSMARTMonitor, a simple, visual, and easy-to-use web tool to check the health of your disks on a Proxmox server.
🚀 Installation:
-
Install Dependencies
sudo apt update sudo apt install python3 python3-pip pip3 install flask paramiko
-
Download the Project

Run the Application
cd ProxmoxSMARTMonitor python3 app.py
🎥 Installation Demo
A Docker version of this project is available here.
This tool was created primarily with the help of AI. Its correct functioning is not guaranteed, and it is not recommended for use in professional environments.
