Synopsis

• Configure the S.M.A.R.T. service.

• To turn on the S.M.A.R.T. service and make sure it starts at boot time, see service.

• This module does not schedule S.M.A.R.T. scans. That is done by smart_scan.

Parameters

Parameter	Comments
interval integer	Time in minutes between S.M.A.R.T. tests. Technically, this is how often smartd activates to check whether any tests are configured to run.
power_mode string	Selects the power mode. Options are never, sleep, standby, and idle. These correspond to the -n POWERMODE option to smartd. never: Check the device regardless of its power mode. sleep: Check the device unless it is in sleep mode. standby: Check the device unless it is in sleep or standby mode. idle: Check the device unless it is in sleep, standby, or idle mode. Choices: "NEVER" "SLEEP" "STANDBY" "IDLE"
temp_crit integer	Threshold temperature, in degrees Celsius. If a disk goes above this temperature, SMART will generate a message with log level of LOG_CRIT. Set to 0 to disable this behavior.
temp_difference integer	Significant temperature difference. A report will be generated if the temperature is more than temp_difference degrees Celsius different from the last test. Set to 0 to disable this behavior.
temp_info integer	Threshold temperature, in degrees Celsius. If a disk goes above this temperature, SMART will generate a message with log level of LOG_INFO. Set to 0 to disable this behavior.
