[[howto:ffp|ffp 0.5]] has the option to enable the SMART monitoring tools. If you want to set SMART up to email you it will require some further configuration. I have found the best solution is to use a script file that is called by the smart daemon #!/ffp/bin/bash # /ffp/sbin/smartd_mail.sh SMARTMESSAGE=/ffp/tmp/msg FROMADDR=email@domain.org if [ ! -n "${SMART_DEVICETYPE+x}" ]; then SMART_DEVICETYPE=marvell fi # Save the email message (STDIN) to a file: cat > $SMARTMESSAGE # Append the output of smartctl -a to the message: /ffp/sbin/smartctl -a -d $SMART_DEVICETYPE $SMARTD_DEVICE >> $SMARTMESSAGE # Now email the message to the user at address ADD: /ffp/bin/mailx -s "$SMARTD_SUBJECT" -r $FROMADDR $SMARTD_ADDRESS < $SMARTMESSAGE If you have a samsung drive you may need to add '-F samsung2' to smartctl line. Then you need to modify the /ffp/etc/smartd.conf file # Comment out DEVICESCAN #DEVICESCAN /dev/sda -d marvell -m myEmail@domain.org -M exec /ffp/sbin/smartd_mail.sh -M test /dev/sdb -d marvell -m myEmail@domain.org -M exec /ffp/sbin/smartd_mail.sh -M test
