But I can't get any stats out of the SAS drives?  Log attached.

Presume its a failing seagate, worried all of these are about to pop now.  I've just spent the last week copying data back and fourth and rebuilding parity ready for a case upgrade. Potentially stress tested them all rather more than they are used to.... =/

It's a known issue with smartmontools on latest release and some SAS devices, it will work if you downgrade to v6.8.2.

This server maintainance has sure been a faff these last two weeks  Made up for years of plain sailing mind.

So I rolled back to Version: 6.8.0-rc7 (that was my option), and I can only upgrade to 6.8.3 when I select stable branch, is there a way to choose 6.8.2?

 

6.8.0 is not happy about the forms vunerability, but the plugin doesnt appear on CA looking for sysdream and limtech, i need to look into that if i can't upgrade forward enough.

 

You can go to the 6.8.2 release by downloading the zip file from the Limetech site and extracting all the bz* type files to the root of the flash drive.

 

It is a good idea to have first backed up the flash drive.

Thanks, i'll add that to 'my list'

Is it still the case, it seems to be unless its another issue, that smartmontools and the unraid front end GUI still dont play nice with SAS drives? 

 

I downgraded last time, but i've bitten the bullet and moved forward to 6.9 so I can use cache pools.  Now I'm SMART-less.  Unless I manually run everything, which isn't ideal i'm sure i'm not the only person missing SMART on the webgui? Although it might be my fault, i might have set something else somewhere.

It must still be the case. I cant get smart data from SAS drives either. Maybe for 6.9.2 @limetech could be upgraded to a version with bug fixed or downgraded to the version from 6.8.2 that worked. I do get probably 99% of unraid users don't use SAS drives.

What information are you missing, I get smart info for my SAS drives under 6.9.1

 

Which drives are you using?

I am using Seagate ST2000NM0023 drives. They are older and I have a couple newer drives in my test server. I ordered on the way for testing. The drive identity says Available - device has SMART capability. I included a screenshot of the self-test section along with the smart report.

GUI SMART tests don't work with SAS devices, but you should see the attributes, tests for SAS devices need to be done manually.
