Hello I have just found the smartmontools package and figured this is what I want. I tried the default smartd.conf file but it failed: Nov 11 11:25:55 overmind smartd[11070]: smartd version 5.23 Copyright (C) 2002-3 Bruce Allen Nov 11 11:25:55 overmind smartd[11070]: Home page is http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/ Nov 11 11:25:55 overmind smartd[11070]: Opened configuration file /etc/smartd.conf Nov 11 11:25:55 overmind smartd[11070]: Configuration file /etc/smartd.conf was parsed, found DEVICESCAN, scanning devices Nov 11 11:25:55 overmind smartd[11070]: Device: DEVICESCAN, No such file or directory, open() failed Nov 11 11:25:55 overmind smartd[11070]: Unable to register ATA device DEVICESCAN at line 21 of file /etc/smartd.conf Nov 11 11:25:55 overmind smartd[11070]: Unable to monitor any SMART enabled devices.

Hi Bernhard, I'm sorry to hear that you are having trouble with smartmontools. Thanks for the report. We've had one other problem report along these lines for 5.23. It seems to be related to the file system type used for /dev. The problem report we had previously recieved was for an XFS file system type for /dev/. What file system type is your /dev directory, please? I think that this has been fixed in the current CVS code. I'll send you a tarball via separate email for testing.

DEVICESCAN didn't work. Version 5.24 fixes the DEVICESCAN issue for me, i.e. DEVICESCAN works just fine now. regards, Bernhard Ege |
