This is very cool - I definitely encourage everyone to give it a try (even if there’s nothing wrong!)
Hi, @xginn8, i’m pleased to hear that. These days i try to use OpenBalena, and i want to use diagnostics features. Is it Open Sourse? If it is, please tell me how to get it. Otherwise, can you offer some support for me to get it?
Look forward to your reply.
This is currently a balenaCloud-only feature. While not the same thing exactly, you can try running Prometheus alongside your app, this should give you some visibility into the device’s health. We’ve got a sample project that might be of help here: https://github.com/balena-io-playground/balena-prometheus-grafana
Cool~I will pay close attention to ‘balena-io-playground’, it’s so helpful to me.
To expand on what dfunckt said above, while the tool is only fully available in balenaCloud, you can use the scripts directly if you like as they are open source: https://github.com/balena-io/device-diagnostics. Please let us know if you have any feedback, we are always looking for ways to improve these tools!
