Hi, I have 3 disks connected to an ASUS PIKE 2008 controller that I would like to monitor with smartd. The PIKE card works only as a SATA controller and passes the disks straight through (i.e., no RAID is set up). If I try to look at one of those disks with smartctl, I get perfectly normal looking output, e.g.: # smartctl -a /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_ST31000528AS_6VP0PCXC smartctl 6.2 2013-07-26 r3841 [x86_64-linux-3.9.7-1-desktop] (SUSE RPM) Copyright (C) 2002-13, Bruce Allen, Christian Franke, www.smartmontools.org === START OF INFORMATION SECTION === Model Family: Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 Device Model: ST31000528AS Serial Number: 6VP0PCXC LU WWN Device Id: 5 000c50 0140f9986 Firmware Version: CC49 User Capacity: 1,000,204,886,016 bytes [1.00 TB] Sector Size: 512 bytes logical/physical Rotation Rate: 7200 rpm Device is: In smartctl database [for details use: -P show] ATA Version is: ATA8-ACS T13/1699-D revision 4 SATA Version is: SATA 2.6, 3.0 Gb/s Local Time is: Sun Nov 17 04:33:18 2013 CET SMART support is: Available - device has SMART capability. SMART support is: Enabled .... etc .... when I try to include this disk in /etc/smartd.conf, the daemon fails to start with error 16, and I get the error message: /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_ST31000528AS_6VP0PCXC, not ATA, no IDENTIFY DEVICE Structure This is confusing to me since smartctl clearly identifies the disk as ATA, so I wonder if this is a bug in smartd? Is there a workaround to start monitoring these 3 disks? Cheers, Peter. |

Option '-d sat' normally is the correct setting for SATA drives on Linux. Smartctl auto-detects it because you didn't specify a -d option. Thanks, Christian |

I inherited the -d ata option from way back when. I just implicitly assumed that this would always remain valid. Thanks! Peter. |
