    ### 1. Install Netdata (if not already installed)
    ```bash
    # Basic installation
    bash <(curl -Ss https://get.netdata.cloud/kickstart.sh)
    # Or with automatic updates enabled
    bash <(curl -Ss https://get.netdata.cloud/kickstart.sh) --auto-update
    ```
    ### 2. Install Prometheus PVE Exporter (for Proxmox VE monitoring)
    ```bash
    # Install dependencies
    apt-get update
    apt-get install -y python3-pip python3-dev
    # Install the exporter
    pip3 install prometheus-pve-exporter
    # Create a service file for the exporter
    cat > /etc/systemd/system/pve_exporter.service << 'END'
    [Unit]
    Description=Prometheus PVE Exporter
    After=network.target
    [Service]
    Type=simple
    User=root
    ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/pve_exporter
    Restart=always
    RestartSec=10
    [Install]
    WantedBy=multi-user.target
    END
    # Create config file
    mkdir -p /etc/pve_exporter
    cat > /etc/pve_exporter/pve.yml << 'END'
    default:
    user: root@pam
    password: your_password
    verify_ssl: false
    END
    # Set appropriate permissions
    chmod 600 /etc/pve_exporter/pve.yml
    # Start and enable the service
    systemctl daemon-reload
    systemctl enable pve_exporter
    systemctl start pve_exporter
    ```
    ### 3. Configure Netdata Components
    #### For Proxmox VE Monitoring:
    ```bash
    cd /etc/netdata
    sudo ./edit-config go.d/prometheus.conf
    ```
    Add the configuration shown in the "Proxmox VE Configuration Example" section.
    #### For ZFS Pools Monitoring:
    ```bash
    cd /etc/netdata
    sudo ./edit-config go.d/zfspool.conf
    ```
    Add the configuration shown in the "ZFS Pool Configuration Example" section.
    #### For S.M.A.R.T. Monitoring:
    ```bash
    cd /etc/netdata
    # Make sure smartmontools is installed
    apt-get install -y smartmontools
    # Configure Netdata S.M.A.R.T. monitoring
    sudo ./edit-config go.d/smartctl.conf
    ```
    Add the configuration shown in the "S.M.A.R.T. Configuration Example" section.
    ### 4. Restart Netdata to Apply Changes
    ```bash
    sudo systemctl restart netdata
    ```
    ### 5. Verify Monitoring is Working
    Visit the Netdata dashboard at:
    ```
    http://your_server_ip:19999
    ```
    You should see sections for:
    - Proxmox VE metrics (under "prometheus/proxmox" or similar)
    - ZFS pools metrics
    - S.M.A.R.T. metrics for your storage devices
    ### 6. Troubleshooting
    If any component is not showing up:
    #### Check Netdata Logs:
    ```bash
    journalctl -u netdata -f
    ```
    #### Check Prometheus PVE Exporter:
    ```bash
    # Test if the exporter is providing metrics
    curl http://localhost:9221/metrics | head
    # Check the exporter logs
    journalctl -u pve_exporter -f
    ```
    #### Test S.M.A.R.T. Capabilities:
    ```bash
    # Check if smartctl can access your drives
    smartctl -i /dev/sda
    ```
    #### Debug Netdata Collectors:
    ```bash
    # For ZFS pools collector
    /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/go.d.plugin -d -m zfspool
    # For S.M.A.R.T. collector
    /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/go.d.plugin -d -m smartctl
    # For Prometheus collector (Proxmox)
    /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/go.d.plugin -d -m prometheus
    ```
