Hi, I'd like smartd to report an error only once. Reading the manual, I put -M once to the config: /dev/sda -a -o on -S on -s (S/../(10|25)/./13|L/10/01/./13) -m cg...@my... -M once However, logwatch reports: Currently unreadable (pending) sectors detected: /dev/sda - 48 Time(s) 4294967295 unreadable sectors detected Offline uncorrectable sectors detected: /dev/sda - 48 Time(s) 4294967295 offline uncorrectable sectors detected 48 times?! this of course could happen if the smartd is restarted 48 times, but it isn't...: [root@NewTownGW ~]# uptime 08:33:13 up 7 days, 20:57, 1 user, load average: 0.15, 0.14, 0.12 [root@NewTownGW ~]# ps -eo lstart,pid,cmd|grep -i smart|grep -v grep Tue Mar 10 11:36:51 2009 2907 /usr/sbin/smartd -q never [root@NewTownGW ~]# date Wed Mar 18 08:33:30 EET 2009 [root@NewTownGW ~]# uname -a Linux NewTownGW.mydomain.ro 2.6.20-1.2933.fc6 #1 SMP Mon Mar 19 10:42:48 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux output from smartctl -V: smartmontools release 5.38 dated 2008/03/10 at 10:44:07 GMT smartmontools build host: i686-redhat-linux-gnu smartmontools build configured: 2008/06/25 06:22:35 UTC smartctl compile dated Jun 25 2008 at 09:22:49 smartmontools configure arguments: '--host=i686-redhat-linux-gnu' '--build=i686-redhat-linux-gnu' '--target=i386-redhat-linux' '--program-prefix=' '--prefix=/usr' '--exec-prefix=/usr' '--bindir=/usr/bin' '--sbindir=/usr/sbin' '--sysconfdir=/etc' '--datadir=/usr/share' '--includedir=/usr/include' '--libdir=/usr/lib' '--libexecdir=/usr/libexec' '--localstatedir=/var' '--sharedstatedir=/usr/com' '--mandir=/usr/share/man' '--infodir=/usr/share/info' '--with-selinux' 'CFLAGS=-O2 -g -march=i386 -mcpu=i686' 'CXXFLAGS=-O2 -g -march=i386 -mcpu=i686' 'build_alias=i686-redhat-linux-gnu' 'host_alias=i686-redhat-linux-gnu' 'target_alias=i386-redhat-linux' Where am I wrong ? |
