Zabbix extension that reports various HDD status using various tools
This extension uses not only smartctl (smartmontools) but other available tools to determine the existance of an HDD and as much as possible of its status.
As a Zabbix "auto-discovery" process, these results can reflect changes in available HDD in near-to-real-time.
smartmontools contains utility programs (smartctl, smartd) to control/monitor storage systems using the Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology System (S.M.A.R.T.) built into most modern ATA and SCSI disks. It is derived from smartsuite.
GSmartControl is a graphical user interface for smartctl. It allows you to inspect the hard disk and solid-state drive SMART data to determine its health, as well as run various tests on it.
