Monitor several rpis #178

Hello,

I'm farily new to all MQTT stuff but I need to integrate rpi-mqtt-monitor to my home assistant. I have successfully done the first install and it works great but I have more that 1 rpi to monitor.

I installed it on another pi, I see the mac adress in MQTT but i still have 1 entity and the same sensors and controls. I think the commands are applied to all rpis. Is there a way to separate each rpi and control them individually ?

Thank you !

This should work automatically..
I've set it up with 4 rpis and they all show individually in HA. They are listed according to their hostnames so check that you have set different hostnames on the two rpis.

Alternatively I've just seen that you can configure this in config.py Just change # ha_device_name = 'device_name_to_use' on the rpis to be unique and remove the #.
