Hi Sysadmins, can you tell me about: How you integrated smartmontools into centralized monitoring services like Nagios etc.? I write an article about smartmontools and would like to inform the readers about the possibilities. Thank you! Gabriele |

How does the script get the info in the current release? *interested and no BB-User since now* Gabriele |

Since you're writing an article on this, I use Webmin's "System Server Status" module to monitor SMART status on all my servers. Regards, Michael. |

I just tried Webmin. Looks nice :-) But I am not sure, wether we use the same module.. I installed the minimal version of Webmin and had to install the modules fdisk.wbm.gz raid.wbm.gz mount.wbm.gz before it was possible to install smart-status.wbm.gz Gabriele |

When configuring it, I also allow it to execute a shell script upon an alert, and that shell script emails an email address, which forwards the alert to an SMS on my mobile. Quite handy, easy to setup and doesn't require an enterprise-wide monitoring package. It's good for small to medium sized networks. Michael. |
