Glances can display the sensors information using ``psutil``,
``hddtemp`` and ``batinfo``:
- motherboard and CPU temperatures
- hard disk temperature
- battery capacity
There is no alert on this information.
.. note 1::
Limit values and sensors alias names can be defined in the
configuration file under the ``[sensors]`` section.
.. note 2::
The support for multiple batteries is only available if
you have the batinfo Python lib installed on your system
because for the moment PSUtil only support one battery.
.. note 3::
If a sensors has temperature and fan speed with the same name unit,
it is possible to alias it using:
unitname_temperature_core_alias=Alias for temp
unitname_fan_speed_alias=Alias for fan speed
.. note 4::
The plugin could crash on some operating system (FreeBSD) with the
TCP or UDP blackhole option > 0 (see issue #2106). In this case, you
should disable the sensors (--disable-plugin sensors or from the
configuration file).
