By "ultimate settings" I mean options which suit my needs best ;) . I had problems finding comprehensive example of smartd.conf
options. Here is what I finally came to:
/dev/sda \ # The device to monitor -a \ # Implies all standard testing and reporting. -n standby,10,q \ # Don't spin up disk if it is currently spun down \ # unless it is 10th attempt in a row. \ # Don't report unsuccessful attempts anyway. -o on \ # Automatic offline tests (usually every 4 hours). -S on \ # Attribute autosave (I don't really understand \ # what it is for. If you can explain it to me \ # please drop me a line. -R 194 \ # Show real temperature in the logs. -R 231 \ # The same as above. -I 194 \ # Ignore temperature attribute changes -W 3,50,50 \ # Notify if the temperature changes 3 degrees \ # comparing to the last check or if \ # the temperature exceeds 50 degrees. -s (S/../.././02|L/../../1/22) \ # short test: every day between 2-3am \ # long test every Monday between 10pm-2am \ # (Long test takes a lot of time \ # and it should be finished before \ # daily short test starts. \ # At 3am every day this disk will be \ # utilized heavily as a backup storage) -m root \ # To whom we should send mails. -M exec /usr/share/smartmontools/smartd-runner # standard debian script
