Here https://www.reddit.com/r/homelab/s/SQY5S8HM2b I downsized it to only host1 moved all there, now Host2 is a gaming PC and main utility pc. I shutdown or suspend it everyday. Host1 is the only alwayson server now.

Btw, the grafana + prometheus setup is very cool you can even get alerts rp ur email and phone. I’d probably do a tutorial for how to do it since grafana dpcumentation is a bit confusing at times.

How do you collect the usage data? Is there hardware involved?

Everything is connected to the APC UPS battery so I use apcupsd daemon in linux to get the data
