November 10, 201510 yr unRAID OS Version: 6.1.3 Description: SMART icon not showing failing drive How to reproduce: (requires failing drive - reallocated sector count) - check dashboard, click SMART status icon and see drive is failing, but icon shows pass. Expected results: dashboard SMART icon indicates fail Actual results: dashboard SMART icon indicates pass Other information: My parity drive is failing SMART, but the thumb up / down icon in 6.1.3 still indicates green / thumb up. Previous version of unRAID indicated red / thumb down. (yes, I am replacing the drive)
November 10, 201510 yr Reallocated sector count isn't a failing indicator unless it is increasing or already large. Drives are designed to reallocate sectors. I think the indicator remembers previous values for that attribute and only flags them if they increase.
November 10, 201510 yr No. The dashboard does not show a drive as failing when a smart attribute which is in FAILING NOW status EG: I have a drive with an END-TO-END error (which is not one of the standard monitored attributes, and for which a single error constitutes FAILING NOW [although I know exactly how and when it happened, so I choose to ignore it]), and the dashboard gives me a thumbs up. IMHO, ANY attribute (monitored or not) that is FAILING NOW should show on the dash board.
November 10, 201510 yr Maybe I misinterpreted the OP but it wasn't clear to me whether he thought reallocated count meant failing, or whether the SMART for that drive actually said FAILING NOW. I assume you know you can set custom attributes and get it to monitor END-TO-END if you wanted.
November 10, 201510 yr I assume you know you can set custom attributes and get it to monitor END-TO-END if you wanted. Of course... Any further change on it that I can't explain and the drive is in the garbage.
November 11, 201510 yr Author when I go into the SMART details page for that drive, right at the bottom it says "SMART overall-health: FAILED!", but I still get a green thumb up on the dashboard.

Clearly that should NOT be the case. I also think it should not show a "thumbs down" from the mere presence of reallocated sectors -- but it does (and it does NOT require a change in the count for this ... it's done it since I first installed v6 for a couple drives that have a few reallocated sectors for a long time -- with no change in the numbers).

What is interesting about my box is that it no longer is showing "thumbs down" on the drive with > 300 reallocated sectors and a failing SMART status.

VERY interesting => clearly the logic that drives that indicator needs a bit of modification
