| #121 | worksforme | smartd fails to report disk failure if a disk doesn't respond anymore | ||
| Description |
I had a self test running on disk hdb: smartd: Device: /dev/hdb, self-test in progress, 10% remaining The disk encountered problems, see /var/log/messages: kernel: hdb: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x61
kernel: hdb: DMA timeout error
kernel: hdb: dma timeout error: status=0xd0 { Busy }
kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown
kernel: hda: DMA disabled
kernel: hdb: DMA disabled
kernel: ide0: reset: success
There were several kernel IDE resets until the drive didn't respond anymore: kernel: hdb: drive not ready for command smartd wrote messages: smartd: Device: /dev/hdb, failed to read Temperature However, smartd had been configured to send e-mails in case of trouble (/dev/hdb -a -I 194 -W 4,40,42 -R 5 -m myamil). In this case, it failed to do so. In my opinion this is a major problem as smartd should inform the admins that a disk is complety offline, i.,e. doesn't respond to requests on the IDE bus anymore. |

| #122 | fixed | "make install" overwrites existing smartd.conf without warning or backup | ||
| Description |
When installing from source tarball, "make install" overwrites an existing smartd.conf file without warning or creating a backup. If such a config file already exists, it should at least be renamed to something like smartd.conf.backup so the existing configuration doesn't get completely lost. |
