I’ve also got an unraid box and been trying to figure out how to get the total usage/free space across the array. Is that what the green unraid disk sensor is showing? If so, how did you get sensor?
Yes that’s it. In summary I am mounting usr/local/emhttp/state as a read only path. That folder has a bunch of config files that Unraid uses for its webui. Then I am parsing the disks.ini file to get disk info.
I started trying to make it into a custom component but haven’t had a lot of time and it’s pretty basic so far
Looks great!
how are you counting the sensors, cameras etc , can you please share the code?
Awesome, could you share the config for that?
edit could you also share the section of the yaml which does the headers above each of the sections? E.g. Unraid. Also the icons please 
Oof, those counters are WAY too verbose. No need for a for loop. Here’s a shortened version of them all.

Why am I not surprised you saw a better way?! 
Thanks, as always.
I should add that it wasn’t my method, I filched it from someone else and had wanted to add an edit to my original post to that effect after it got a few likes, but because I can’t remember who I got it from to credit, never did.
just for educational purposes:
any reason not to use {{ states.automation | list | count }} ?
also, since ive just posted this as a solution to list and count domains, would you shorten that too with this |list|count: {{ states| groupby('domain') | list | count }} (since we need the for loop there anyway)
value_template: >
{%- for d in states | groupby('domain') %}
{% if loop.first %}{{loop.length}} Domains:
{% endif -%} {{d[0]}},
{%- endfor %}
It was mine I’m ashamed to say I always find a way to make my templates as long winded as possible.
@petro you need to share your repo with me so I can learn anchors wait till you see my energy consumption template abortion, but hey it works its just really really really long.

I’ve been working the past 2 weeks to get my system into a cohesive setup. You don’t want to see my set up at the moment because it is very complicated where it doesn’t need to be, I haven’t updated sections since my initial startup (in 2016). I’m trying to streamline every page of my UI while removing stuff that doesn’t work / I don’t need anymore / is getting depreciated. I’m actually pretty close and I hope to have it posted within a week. I just have a bunch of appdaemon automations that I need to update, but I’ll do that after I post it.
EDIT: Here’s the repo, its a work in progress.

Just in case it helps, my post linked below has a simplified anchors example.

Thanks man appreciate it, always learning this community is awesome for that.
Does anyone know what would be the best way to obtain system stats such as CPU, temperature, disk usage, etc from a remote Ubuntu 18.x Linux server please?

Mine’s very simple by comparison to most of the dashboards shown here, but this is mine:
The only custom UI element in use here is the Compact Custom Header.

How did you get the usg cpu , memory data and update data? Can you share? Thanks
