This will be very nice indeed to have as a separate section on the dash board and on the Reporting >> Hardware page. It is absolutely critical for the running of the firewall and discovering any issues early.
Hard Disk health is generally traceable with S.M.A.R.T. (most modern hard disks support it) - implemented via the smartd daemon (downloadable as free rpm and regularly updated) and can have a separate log section in the 'Logging' tab to check the status of the hard disk at regular intervals.
As for the Motherboard/CPU temperature monitoring - there are various implementations (including the SM87 package available through the standard linux distribution) which could be made available in Astaro as well.
Question to all Astaro developers reading this - if I want to install the smartd rpm to the Astaro distribution is that possible (I know it invalidates my home license before you ask) as I want to monitor the health of my hard disk and currently there is no way I could do that in Astaro.
Finally, it would be nice to have a choice of all Astaro notifications to be sent to 'internal' email address (say Admin@) - available as part of the User Portal.
Currently the only way I could utilise this is if I have an external email address/account set up as part of the SMTP/POP3 proxy set up, which is not only inconvenient, but insecure as well as all the internal info from these notifications will pass through external servers...unless I am missing something obvious!
