Checking Disk Drive Status Using SMART
Note:
Only BlackArmor administrators can complete a SMART diagnosis.
You can use BlackArmor Manager to perform SMART diagnoses on the server's disk drives.
SMART stands for Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology, a technology built into
disk drives that let them automatically monitor their own health and report on possible
problems.
Running a SMART diagnosis on the server's disk drives on a regular basis can help prevent
disk drive failure by catching potential problems early. Because only disk drives that support
SMART can be tested with BlackArmor Manager, ensure that you always use SMART disk
drives in the server.
To run a SMART diagnosis, open BlackArmor Manager (see page 17). SMART tests are in
the System menu. For step-by-step instructions for using BlackArmor Manager, refer to the
online Help.
