Not being a arch expert, how would I install smart. I just had a disk fail and I think I might have got a warning if smarttools where installed. |

i installed smart tools a while ago. i dont have the specifics handy, but you will need to use pacman to install smartmontools, if not already installed: pacman -Ss smart extra/smartmontools 5.41-1 [installed] Control and monitor S.M.A.R.T. enabled ATA and SCSI Hard Drives. i found this article helpful when configuring: http://www.linuxjournal.com/magazine/mo ... isks-smart it is also useful to install postfix so the monitoring software can email you when something goes wrong |

G'day, Yeah, I think that was already installed. smartctl does nor seem to be though. I have sendmail installed, so I am good on that front. |

smartctl is part of the smartmon package: [root@mythtv ~]# pacman -Ql smartmontools smartmontools /etc/ smartmontools /etc/rc.d/ smartmontools /etc/rc.d/smartd smartmontools /etc/smartd.conf smartmontools /usr/ smartmontools /usr/sbin/ smartmontools /usr/sbin/smartctl smartmontools /usr/sbin/smartd smartmontools /usr/sbin/update-smart-drivedb smartmontools /usr/share/ smartmontools /usr/share/man/ smartmontools /usr/share/man/man5/ smartmontools /usr/share/man/man5/smartd.conf.5.gz smartmontools /usr/share/man/man8/ smartmontools /usr/share/man/man8/smartctl.8.gz smartmontools /usr/share/man/man8/smartd.8.gz smartmontools /usr/share/smartmontools/ smartmontools /usr/share/smartmontools/drivedb.h you can check to see if you have smartmon installed by doing: [root@mythtv ~]# pacman -Ss smartmontools extra/smartmontools 5.41-1 [installed] Control and monitor S.M.A.R.T. enabled ATA and SCSI Hard Drives. |

So to install, I would do pacman -S smartmontools Edit... And it did, smartmontools installed. Now I need to patch my disk firmware due to a bug and possibly some sort of log monitor. |
