I have loaded the SCSI pass through driver mfip.ko and the /dev/passX devices are present. I can run "smartctl -d sat -i /dev/passX" and it works just fine with the expected information. However the way in which nas4free is configured to use the /dev/mfisyspdX devices doesn't work. Is there some parameter I can provide to cause smartctl (and smartd) to look through the /dev/mfisyspdX device to the pass through device /dev/passX? The device mapping isn't 1:1 as I have more passX devices than mfisyspdX devices. I've looked at the source and run the v6.1 code with no additional success. The disks are configured for JBOD mode on the LSI 2208 controller. How should I approach this issue?

I run smartd as a windows service and am unable to specify my own error script handling providing the new (i know it's still experimental) way. Here's the event log when i start the service: smartd[3376]:CRIT File C:/Program Files (x86)/smartmontools for Windows/bin/smartd.conf line 3 (drive DEVICESCAN): unknown Directive: --warnexec=erroraction.cmd Run smartd -D to print a list of valid Directives. Configuration file C:/Program Files (x86)/smartmontools for Windows/bin/smartd.conf has fatal syntax errors. I also tried with -w instead of --warnexec= I've tried full paths, no paths, whatever i try i get the same. When i run smartd -D, output doesn't state any -w option. I can still run my script the old way with -m &lt;nomailer&gt; -M exec erroraction.cmd, but only if the original smartd_warning.cmd script is there, even if i don't use it or i endup with a strange error message...

I've noticed that a small glitch in your way to install the smartd service. When you install the service with "smartd install", the service gets installed as interactive service (type 110) instead of a simple type 10 service which generates an error. As you just changed the way of the service to interact with desktop via the wtssendmessage tool, is the type 110 for the service still needed?

Eg: one some archive disk that's 24/7 connected to a 27/7 PC just a few weeks of Power_on_Hour after 3 years, which is as little as i accessed the disk. Does this mean that the USB-SATA controller in the external case is actually disconnecting the disk from power ? I would have to open up one of the boxes and put it to a voltmeter otherwise ;-) I was hoping that this would be a real good thing for the life expectancy of the disk because even all the disc elecronics would be without power. So worst case if the USB adapter fails/expires one can always ge to the disk hook it up again and get to the data. On a SATA disk used natively in a NAS/PC i guess the drive electronics could also expire (probably not that often, mostly it's going to be surface issues, i know). Have folks experience with Power_on_hours on internal disks ?

(Sample in the first attachment.) I experienced the same problem on both WinXP and Win7 systems (I don't have any systems running Vista or Win8). Upon looking in smartd_warning.cmd, which was new to v6.1, I found the cause of the error messages. The system variable %DATE% is used in constructing the name for a temporary file, thus creating a file name that includes slashes. The command interpretter then replaces the slashes with back-slashes and treats the various parts of the file name as a series of folders and subfolders, and then complains that it cannot find the specified path! To see this in action, enter the three following commands: set test=test-%DATE% set test dir "%test%" Notice that in the third command, the slashes are reversed and it is treating the filename as a path name rather th</pre> Don Brinson 2013-04-30T20:48:08 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.utilities.smartmontools/8655 <pre>Hi, I have getting error at boot time that Device: /dev/sdb, FAILED SMART self-check &amp; Device: /dev/sdb, not found in smartd database. please provide me solution for this problem.please find the below boot time log for your reference.
