Library .NET

💡 To get data from all sensors, you need to run the console with administrator privileges.

💡 Response speed through WMI is on average 5 times faster (200 milliseconds vs. 1 second to .NET Library) because a running instance of the application is used to retrieve the data, which also stores the minimum and maximum values.

💡 On all systems tested, I was able to collect CPU and some disk data. In connection with this problem I have created a request in the GitHub repository of LibreHardwareMonitor developers. For OpenHardwareMonitor, I have not been able to get the data.

📊 InfluxDB connection

Process configuring temperature sensor monitoring.

Define the server on which the time series database will be installed. It can be Windows, Linux (WSL or a virtual machine) or use Docker image.

Install to Windows:

Invoke-RestMethod "https://dl.influxdata.com/influxdb/releases/influxdb-1.8.10_windows_amd64.zip" -OutFile "$home\Downloads\influxdb-1.8.10_windows_amd64.zip"
Expand-Archive "$home\Downloads\influxdb-1.8.10_windows_amd64.zip" -DestinationPath "$home\Downloads\"
Remove-Item "$home\Downloads\influxdb-1.8.10_windows_amd64.zip"
& "$home\Downloads\influxdb-1.8.10-1\influxd.exe"

Example for Ubuntu:

wget https://dl.influxdata.com/influxdb/releases/influxdb_1.8.10_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i influxdb_1.8.10_amd64.deb
systemctl start influxdb
systemctl status influxdb
Install-Module psinfluxdb -Repository NuGet
Import-Module psinfluxdb
Get-Command -Module psinfluxdb
Get-InfluxDatabases -server 192.168.3.102
Get-InfluxDatabases -server 192.168.3.102 -creat -database PowerShell
  • Configure script to send the data and check it out in the console

Local:

# Inport-Module "C:\Users\lifailon\Documents\PowerShell\Modules\HardwareMonitor"
while ($True) {
    $Data = Get-Sensor | Where-Object {($_.SensorName -match "Temperature") -or ($_.SensorType -match "Temperature")}
    Send-SensorToInfluxDB -Data $Data -ServerInflux "192.168.3.102" -Port 8086 -Database "PowerShell" -Table "HardwareMonitor"
    Start-Sleep -Seconds 5
}

Remote:

# Inport-Module "C:\Users\lifailon\Documents\PowerShell\Modules\HardwareMonitor"
while ($True) {
    $Server_List = @(
        "192.168.3.99"
        "192.168.3.100"
    )
    foreach ($Server in $Server_List) {
        $Data = Get-Sensor -ComputerName $Server -Port 8085 | Where-Object {($_.SensorName -match "Temperature") -or ($_.SensorType -match "Temperature")}
        Send-SensorToInfluxDB -ComputerName $Server -Data $Data -ServerInflux "192.168.3.102" -Port 8086 -Database "PowerShell" -Table "HardwareMonitor"
        Start-Sleep -Seconds 5
    }
}
  • Check the received data

SQL query for InstalDB Studio:

SELECT * FROM "HardwareMonitor" WHERE time > now() - 5m

Filtering the data:

SELECT * FROM "HardwareMonitor" WHERE SensorName =~/.+Package/ and Value > 90 and time > now() - 30m

Image alt

Getting and filtering data via PowerShell:

Get-InfluxTables -server 192.168.3.102 -database PowerShell
$Data =  Get-InfluxData -server 192.168.3.102 -database PowerShell -table HardwareMonitor -minutes 30
$Data | Where-Object {$_.SensorName -match "Package" -and $_.Value -gt 90} | Format-Table

💡 The example in the screenshot uses the oh-my-posh theme System-Sensors to retrieve data from LibreHardwareMonitor.

🔔 Creat service

Save the data sending script to database and specify the path to it at the beginning of the script creat service (a set of scripts for creating, starting, stopping and deleting a service are included with the module):

$script_path = "$home\Documents\Write-SensorToInfluxDB.ps1" # set the path to your script

# Install nssm
$nssm_path = $(Get-ChildItem $env:TEMP | Where-Object Name -match "nssm")
if ($null -eq $nssm_path) {
    Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "https://nssm.cc/release/nssm-2.24.zip" -OutFile "$env:TEMP\nssm.zip"
    Expand-Archive -Path "$env:TEMP\nssm.zip" -DestinationPath $env:TEMP
    Remove-Item -Path "$env:TEMP\nssm.zip"
}

# Delete service
if (Get-Service HardwareMonitor -ErrorAction Ignore) {
    Get-Service HardwareMonitor | Stop-Service
    Remove-Service HardwareMonitor
    # Для удаления в PowerShell 5.1
    # (Get-CimInstance win32_service -Filter 'name="HardwareMonitor"').Delete()
    # & $nssm_exe_path remove HardwareMonitor
}

# Creat service
$service_name  = "HardwareMonitor"
$nssm_exe_path = $(Get-ChildItem $env:TEMP -Recurse | Where-Object name -match nssm.exe | Where-Object FullName -Match win64).FullName
$pwsh_path     = $(Get-Command pwsh.exe).Source
& $nssm_exe_path install $service_name $pwsh_path "-File $script_path"
& $nssm_exe_path set $Service_Name description "Sending HardwareMonitor sensors to the InfluxDB"
& $nssm_exe_path set $service_name AppExit Default Restart

# Start service
Get-Service HardwareMonitor | Start-Service
Get-Service HardwareMonitor

Deployment

For deployment LibreHardwareMonitor as a monitoring agent and collect data on a single computer from multiple machines simultaneously, you can use the following approach via the WinRM protocol (you must have administrator rights in the domain and have the appropriate group policies configured beforehand):

$ServerList = (
    "server-01",
    "server-02"
)
foreach ($Server in $ServerList) {
    Invoke-Command $Server -ScriptBlock {
        # Install LibreHardwareMonitor
        $path = "$home\Documents\LibreHardwareMonitor"
        $zip = "$($path).zip"
        $url = "https://api.github.com/repos/LibreHardwareMonitor/LibreHardwareMonitor/releases/latest"
        $url_down = $(Invoke-RestMethod $url).assets.browser_download_url
        Invoke-RestMethod $url_down -OutFile $zip
        Expand-Archive -Path $zip -DestinationPath $path
        Remove-Item -Path $zip
        # Run Web-Server
        $Config = Get-Content "$path\LibreHardwareMonitor.config"
        $Config = $Config -replace 'key="runWebServerMenuItem" value="false"','key="runWebServerMenuItem" value="true"'
        #$Config = $Config -replace 'key="listenerPort" value="8085"','key="listenerPort" value="8086"'
        $Config = $Config -replace 'key="minTrayMenuItem" value="false"','key="minTrayMenuItem" value="true"'
        $Config = $Config -replace 'key="minCloseMenuItem" value="false"','key="minCloseMenuItem" value="true"'
        $Config | Out-File "$path\LibreHardwareMonitor.config"
        # Run Application
        Start-Process "$path\LibreHardwareMonitor.exe" -WindowStyle Hidden
    }
}
