SIMPLE SMART REPORTING SCRIPT 2006-02-08 (C) 2006, Daniel Rozsnyo Requirements ------------ - cron which sends the stdout as mail - smartctl (smartmontools) - hddtemp - sed,cut,grep - bash Instalation ----------- 1. Put the files into /root/smart/ directory (by default, if you plan to place the scripts elsewhere, update the path in check.sh) 2. Edit the status.sh script and explicitly note which drives you want to monitor 3. Put a line to /etc/crontab, e.g.: 4 5 * * * root /root/smart/check.sh 4. The script will generate a report on it's first run, because the status changed from "none" to "some"
