Line 1: − We could add a section on enabling smartd to monitor disk health <br> − see http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1445 <br> − http://www.linuxmanpages.com/man8/smartd.8.php − ===Monitor Disk Health=== − Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART) is built into many ATA-3 and later ATA, IDE and SCSI-3 hard drives. The purpose of SMART is to monitor the reliability of the hard drive and predict drive failures, and to carry out different types of drive self-tests. − − ====Method 1==== − Enable − config set smartd service − config setprop smartd status enabled − ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/e-smith-service /etc/rc.d/rc7.d/S40smartd − − This will log warnings to /var/log/messages, Emails to admin on critical errors would be good. − − − ====Method 2==== − Create a script that will run at each re-boot, with your own options <br> − this method just saves having to template the config file − − nano -w /etc/e-smith/events/local/S40smartd − #! /bin/sh − smartd -H -m admin -M diminishing -M test − − chmod +x /etc/e-smith/events/local/S40smartd
