Recently I have installed smartmontools. I have run the following command to determine the disk : # fdisk -l I have run the following command and it is showing the following error for all the disks [ hda, hda1, hda2, hda5 ] : # smartctl -l selftest /dev/hda === START OF READ SMART DATA SECTION === SMART Self-test log structure revision number 1 Num Test_Description Status Remaining LifeTime(hours) LBA_of_first_error # 1 Short offline Completed without error 00% 15730 - # 2 Extended offline Aborted by host 90% 11081 - # 3 Short offline Completed without error 00% 11080 - And when I run the following command nothing happens and I did check syslog for message. Do I have to look elsewhere ? # smartctl -t short /dev/hda and the output of the command : smartctl version 5.38 [i686-pc-linux-gnu] Copyright (C) 2002-8 Bruce Allen Home page is http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/ === START OF OFFLINE IMMEDIATE AND SELF-TEST SECTION === Sending command: "Execute SMART Short self-test routine immediately in off-line mode".
