I wanted to monitor the temperature of my CPU and fan speed. How do I read CPU core temperature data including fan speed from a shell prompt under a Linux operating system? How do I monitor my Linux server cpu hardware and all sensor chips data using a command prompt on a Debian or Ubuntu?
You can use Linux hardware monitoring tool called lm_sensor. This tool provides some essential command line utilities for monitoring the hardware health of Linux systems containing hardware health monitoring hardware such as the LM78, LM75 and more.
This
tool use the System Management Bus (SMBus or SMB), which is a simple
two-wire bus, derived from I²C and used for communication with
low-bandwidth devices on a motherboard, especially power related chips
such as a laptop's rechargeable battery subsystem. Other devices might
include temperature, fan, or voltage sensors; and lid switches. PCI
add-in cards may connect to an SMBus segment.

This program will help you determine which kernel modules you need
to load to use lm_sensors most effectively. It is generally safe
and recommended to accept the default answers to all questions,
unless you know what you're doing.
We can start with probing for (PCI) I2C or SMBus adapters.
Do you want to probe now? (YES/no):
Probing for PCI bus adapters...
Use driver `i2c-i801' for device 0000:00:1f.3: Intel 82801G ICH7
We will now try to load each adapter module in turn.
Module `i2c-i801' already loaded.
If you have undetectable or unsupported adapters, you can have them
scanned by manually loading the modules before running this script.
To continue, we need module `i2c-dev' to be loaded.
Do you want to load `i2c-dev' now? (YES/no):
Module loaded successfully.
We are now going to do the I2C/SMBus adapter probings. Some chips may
be double detected; we choose the one with the highest confidence
value in that case.
If you found that the adapter hung after probing a certain address,
you can specify that address to remain unprobed.
Next adapter: saa7133[0] (i2c-0)
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively):
Client found at address 0x47

Some chips are also accessible through the ISA I/O ports. We have to
write to arbitrary I/O ports to probe them. This is usually safe though.

Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue:
Driver `to-be-written' (should be inserted):
Detects correctly:
* Bus `SMBus I801 adapter at 4000'
Busdriver `i2c-i801', I2C address 0x2e
Chip `Andigilog aSC7621' (confidence: 5)
Driver `coretemp' (should be inserted):
Detects correctly:
* Chip `Intel Core family thermal sensor' (confidence: 9)
I will now generate the commands needed to load the required modules.
Just press ENTER to continue:
To make the sensors modules behave correctly, add these lines to
/etc/modules:
#----cut here----
# I2C adapter drivers
i2c-i801
# Chip drivers
# no driver for Andigilog aSC7621 yet
coretemp
#----cut here----
Do you want to add these lines to /etc/modules automatically? (yes/NO)
This is an interactive program that will walk you through the process of scanning your system for various hardware monitoring chips, or sensors, supported by libsensors, or more generally by the lm_sensors tool suite. For my system coretemp and i2c-i801 driver need to loaded in order to see sensors data. Type 'YES" to update /etc/modules files. Now you need to reboot the box. Alternatively, you can load all drivers using modprobe command:# modprobe coretemp
# modprobe i2c-i801How do I read sensors chip data such as temperature and fan speed?
Type the following command at shell prompt:$ sensorsSample output:
