Jetson Orin Exporter - jtop

Comprehensive monitoring dashboard for NVIDIA Jetson Orin devices using metrics from the jtop Prometheus exporter. Covers GPU utilization, unified memory, per-core CPU usage and frequency, thermal zones, power consumption breakdown, GPU/EMC frequency scaling, swap, fan speed, hardware engine status (DLA, NVENC, NVDEC), disk usage, and board info. Requires a jtop-based Prometheus exporter exposing jetson_* metrics.

Jetson Orin Exporter Dashboard

A comprehensive Grafana dashboard designed for monitoring NVIDIA Jetson edge devices locally or across a fleet. It works seamlessly with the https://github.com/pgodlews/jetson-orin-exporter to visualize live system telemetry exposed by jetson-stats (jtop).

Tested heavily on Jetson AGX Orin and Jetson Orin Nano boards.

Features

  • GPU Metrics: Overall utilization (%) and Unified memory profiling.
  • CPU Metrics: Live per-core workload scaling and core frequency tracking (Hz).
  • Thermal Analytics (Tj): Continuous monitoring of SoC thermal zones to quickly spot hardware throttling before it brings workloads down.
  • Power Consumption: Real-time wattage across the entire board, plus deep dives into per-rail power monitors (e.g. CPU, GPU, CV, SYS5V).
  • Hardware Engines: Running states and active frequencies for fixed-function hardware (DLA, NVENC, NVDEC).
  • Cooling & Storage: Live fan RPM/PWM tracking and Disk/Swap capacity.
  • System Internals: Current "NVP Model" power profile, EMC (Memory Controller) frequency, and jetson_clocks active status.

⚙️ Prerequisites

  1. An NVIDIA Jetson board running JetPack 6 / Ubuntu 22.04.
  2. The official jtop service https://github.com/rbonghi/jetson_stats v4.3.0 or higher
  3. The open-source https://github.com/pgodlews/jetson-orin-exporter running on the Jetson target.

🚀 Setup Instructions

Setting up the exporter on your Jetson takes under two minutes. Simply clone the repository on your target device and start the daemon:

# 1. Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/pgodlews/jetson-orin-exporter.git
cd jetson-orin-exporter

2. Install dependencies


sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt


3. Test the exporter daemon


sudo mkdir -p /opt/jetson_exporter
sudo cp jetson_exporter.py /opt/jetson_exporter/
python3 /opt/jetson_exporter/jetson_exporter.py

*(For proper production systemd service installation so it starts directly on boot, see the full guide on the https://github.com/pgodlews/jetson-orin-exporter

Once running, point your Prometheus scrape config to the device (target_ip:9101), select your Prometheus datasource dynamically in this dashboard, and your Jetson metrics will instantly populate!
