ATTENTION

Please note if you restart your PiHole container the Exporter will stop and you have to manually start it from the plugin configuration page with the "START" button.

 

This is also applies if you have CA Backup installed and the container is beeing backed up.

 

To workaround that you don't have to manually restart it after each CA Backup do the following steps:

 

1. Go to Settings and click on the bottom on "Backup/Restore Appdata":
   
    
2. Confirm the Warning that pops up and scroll all the way down to the bottom and click on "Show Advanced Settings":
   
    
3. At Pi-Hole make sure that you click on the switch so that it shows "Don't Stop":
   
    
4. Scroll down to the bottom and click "Apply":
   

Quick question: is there a command to manually enable the pihole exporter?
I see, that i can add a custom start script to the backup tool - could I use this to enable the exporter after restarting pihole?

No, at least not an easy one.

Does the exporter stop after you've restarted PiHole?

No it seems to keep running - I'm sorry. I understood from your guide, that I need to make sure to manually start the exporter again. But if i stop PiHole and then start it again, the exporter seemed to stay awake.

I will look into that and hack together a script for you if that's good enough...

 

EDIT: Ah wait, that's not possible, that's a Docker container or am I wrong? The script need to run directly on the server and not from a Docker container.

I may have missed it, but is there any sort of ISP speed test plugin?

Not from my side and it's also not planned.

@ich777 i added some values (fans RPM,some Temperatures, etc) from HWinfo to Afterburner and they exported OK.

 

but the problem with Watts,Voltage,Current from PSU :

 

we have 3.3V - 5V - 12V and same for current and watts, but exporter export all tree units for same name afterburner_v_v 

so we can choose only one of 3 units...

 

can it be fixed somehow maybe in afterburner setting? or its exporter problem ?

expoter dont take the name from afterburner ?

 

other staff added like temperatures and fans working well .

Seems like an issue with the exporter.

I would recommend that you‘ve report that over on the exporter GitHub Issue tracker over here.

i opened issue in github but its 2years old and mantainer not visible about half year.

but i fixed it by changing the name from +5v to five v (int to string) and its working ...

Hey @ich777, thanks for supporting these plugins! I recently tried out the smartctl exporter and opened a PR for more NVMe data: https://github.com/ich777/unraid-prometheus_smartctl_exporter/pull/1

 

May I ask why you never released the plugin? It works fine for me. I read the comments about spinning up sleeping disks, which is not a problem for me. Is that the only reason? I saw some code that should avoid this, so I assume this was already fixed? I think its a fine addition to the plugin list!

I already saw that bit haven‘t got the chance to go through all of that, will review it shortly and answer on GitHub if that‘s fine for you.

Of course, no rush! I wasn't sure if you'd rather like to handle contributions here or on Github, so I decided to… uhh, spam, I guess… sorry about that

@ich777

Have you heard any new issues from other people here that the Prometheus Pi-Hole Exported is not working?

 

For some context, I had the exporter configured and shipping metrics to Prometheus and Grafana. My server crashed earlier this week and now the exporter will no longer start with the same config I had set before. I've reinstalled both the Pi-Hole app and the exported plugin with no luck.

 

Current config:

Pi-Hole Exporter

- Pi-Hole static IP address, br0 (can see it on my network)

- port 80

- New API key from fresh install

 

Prometheus yml:

- unraid IP address :9617

 

The service will start if I set the exporter Pi-Hole host IP to my servers IP but will not work if I set it to the Pi-Holes static IP. Makes me think there is some issue with host access even though it is set to, "enabled" in the docker setting.

 

Any idea on what might be going on here?

Do you run PiHole in a Docker container on br0 correct?

Have you tried to restart the Docker service yet (Disable it and Enable it again).

Thanks for the fast reply! 

 

Correct, Pi-Hole is run in a Docker container on br0.

 

Yes, I've disabled and enabled the docker service but still same issue.

 

I'm going to restart the server and see if that takes care of the issue, I'll report back if anything changes.

Reboot of the server fixed the problem  

@ich777 Everything works flawless, many thanks for your tutorials and your time spent on creating plugins. words of appreciation.

Hi there, 

i was able to successfully install:

- nvidia-smi Exporter

- PiHole Exporter

- Fritzbox Exporter

 

Only Fritzbox Exporter (for my 7590) gives me a strange output regarding the DSL Link Status:

 

 

Any idea how to fix that? Thank you!

@Civic1201

This is my source for DSL Link Status:

gateway_connection_status{connection="Physical Link"}

I have the same values like you:

 

 

I am running an Pi3+ as PiHole + entry in Fritzbox settings (if it´s important).

@ich777 I submitted a pull request against the smartctl exporter textfile collector. There was a spelling mistake in the one nested if conditional when checking node_exporters settings.cfg causing it to always return null. I also did some minor bash syntax cleanup in that nested IF.

 

Also wondering did you have any plans to update node-exporter to 1.5.0 and would be open to a pull request to enable the cpu info collector by default?
