Mark, Obviously, for your system you'll want /etc/smartd.conf to look something like: # /etc/smartd.conf /dev/hda -a -m mark_h_johnson and since you obviously keep an eye on syslog, you might also want to add -I 194 to the above, (assuming that your disk's temperature Attribute is #194). Now to address the "real" point of your comments... It would be sensible to (on Red Hat) parse /etc/sysconfig/hwconf to identify disk devices. A python script that did a competent job of this could probably be done in minutes - and could be dropped right into kickstart to create a custom /etc/smartd.conf. I'd also be happy to include such a script in the smartmontools package, if it existed. Unfortunately each different distribution has their "own" way of creating such a database, so this does need to be redone for each different distribution. And unfortunately I don't know python. Perhaps someone at Red Hat will take this up. we do have such a script these days, and hopefully it does the right thing. I'm going to close this bug as its been around for over a year without comment. Please reopen if the current release doesn't do what you think it should. |
