Dear Xfs,

Scientific Linux 7.3

$ rpm -qa \*xfsdump\*
xfsdump-3.1.4-1.el7.x86_64

When I do a backup to /dev/sda1 (/lin-bak), I get told

      WARNING: Your hard drive is failing
      Device: /dev/sda [SAT], unable to open device

That's a message from smartctl, it has nothing to do with
xfs or xfsdump.  It's probably related to your creative use
of hotplug.

Then I am just going to ignore it then.

smartctl daemon may not be aware that you swapped a disk and be
confused. You may have to restart it.


Hi Carlos,

I am not finding a smartctl daemon running.  Is it
known by another name?

# systemctl status smartctld
Unit smartctld.service could not be found.

# systemctl status smartctl
Unit smartctl.service could not be found.

# ps ax | grep -i [s]martctl
<nothing>

And can I just do a "systemctl restart xxx" on it?  Or will
it just confuse the issue.
