Use the Raspberry Pi Monitoring template to monitor your Raspberry Pi 4 or 400 Linux system.

The Raspberry Pi template includes the following:

• one bucket: rasp-pi (7d retention)
• labels: raspberry-pi + Telegraf plugin labels
  • Diskio input plugin
  • Mem input plugin
  • Net input plugin
  • Processes input plugin
  • Swap input plugin
  • System input plugin
• one Telegraf configuration
• one dashboard: Raspberry Pi System
• two variables: bucket and linux_host

Apply the template

1. Use the influx CLI to run the following command:

   influx apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/influxdata/community-templates/master/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-system.yml
   

   For more information, see influx apply.

2. Install Telegraf on your Raspberry Pi and ensure your Raspberry Pi has network access to the InfluxDB {{% cloud-only %}}Cloud{{% /cloud-only %}} API.

3. Add the following environment variables to your Telegraf environment:

   • INFLUX_HOST: {{% oss-only %}}Your InfluxDB URL{{% /oss-only %}} {{% cloud-only %}}Your InfluxDB Cloud region URL{{% /cloud-only %}}
   • INFLUX_TOKEN: Your InfluxDB {{% cloud-only %}}Cloud{{% /cloud-only %}} API token
   • INFLUX_ORG: Your InfluxDB {{% cloud-only %}}Cloud{{% /cloud-only %}} organization name.

   export INFLUX_HOST=http://localhost:8086
   export INFLUX_TOKEN=mY5uP3rS3cr3T70keN
   export INFLUX_ORG=example-org
   

4. Start Telegraf.
