Systemmonitor sensor doesn't match Sysem Metrics

I added the systemmonitor sensor but the values for cpu and memory are not lining up with what’s displayed on the Supervisor > System > System Metrics screen. The CPU and Memory values are much higher in the sensor.

sensor:
  - platform: systemmonitor
    resources:
      - type: disk_use_percent
      - type: memory_use_percent
      - type: memory_free
      - type: memory_use
      - type: processor_use
      - type: processor_temperature
      - type: load_1m
      - type: load_5m

Should these values line up?

I don’t think so.

The supervisor stats are specific to Supervisor whereas the system monitor is the whole system including any other containers outside HA etc.

I’m running on a Pi4 with nothing other than HA on it so I would expect them to be close?

no because HA has 6 (i think) containers it runs plus addons and you are only seeing the Supervisor there…

In the above, core+supervisor = 2.9% where as systemmonitor is showing 27%.

Look in Glances (an addon) and you can see what all the containers/addons are using

@DavidFW1960 Got it installed and it makes much more sense now. Thanks!
