disk set smart
To change a device's S.M.A.R.T. configuration, use the disk set
smart command. The acronym S.M.A.R.T. stands for Self-
Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology. This technology is
an industry standard for hard drives that monitors a variety of disk
parameters, such as the rate of read-write errors. In addition,
S.M.A.R.T. can send an alert to system administrators about
potential problems caused by disk errors.
This command allows you to make the following changes related to
S.M.A.R.T.:
■
Enable or disable S.M.A.R.T. configuration for all disks on the
system
■
Clear the S.M.A.R.T. error count for the specified disk
■
Enable or disable S.M.A.R.T. exception reporting
Syntax
disk set smart [/all{=boolean}][/clear{=boolean}]
[/enable_exceptions{=boolean}][/logerr{=boolean}]
[/perf{=boolean}][/report_count{=integer}]
[/update{=boolean}] [{scsi_device}]
Parameters
{scsi_device}
Specifies the ID for the SCSI disk on which you want to change
S.M.A.R.T. configurations. A SCSI ID consists of a SCSI
channel number (for example, 0, 1, 2, 3, etc.), SCSI device ID (0
through 15 inclusive), and SCSI device logical unit number (0
through 7 inclusive). See the scsi_device section on
page 3-7 for more information on how to specify the SCSI
device.
You do not need to specify a SCSI ID if you use the /all
switch.
