The setup is quite simple if you follow my article and the official documentation and provides me with always up-to-date data about CPU/memory/… usage. Monitoring for the PiĪfter installing the Pi I made sure to add proper monitoring like I already set up for my home server and the Octopi using the MQTT2HA daemon. The micro SD card can be the same, of course unless it died like in my case. You will also need a new power supply (USB C) and (micro) HDMI cable.
