Hey all,
Attached is a bunch of messages I'm receiving from smartd about
prefailure attribute and usage
attribute for both of my internal drives.  I'm wondering if these
drives are both dying, or if smartd
is misbehaving.  I'm not really familiar with smart, so any clues
would be helpful.
Anyone else seeing excessive messages out of smartd?

kernel-2.6.25-0.82.rc3.git2.fc9.i686
smartmontools-5.37-8.5.fc9.i386


Try blanking ( you can back up the file first ) /etc/smartd.conf and reboot
and see if it stills spews out those messages..

Everything in that file is commented out except for a single line:
DEVICESCAN
Comment out DEVICESCAN and remove the top line "# *SMARTD*AUTOGENERATED* /etc/smartd.conf"
and kill -hup SMARTD_PID and check if those messages are still coming...

Did your disable selinux to see if you experience the udev problem..
( or am I the only one.. ) :< ...

Going to try that shortly.


Just comment out DEVICESCAN and add those 2 lines.. that should fix your problem...

/dev/sda -d ata -H -m root
/dev/sdb -d ata -H -m root

Great thanks. I tried without devicescan and gave it more than an hour to produce those messages and none showed up. I added these two lines and will see what happens.
