G.1.5 Enabling and Disabling SMART Changes
You can enable or disable the ability to change the Self-Monitoring,
Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART) settings for all drives
connected to the EF2800. This can be set to ENABLE, DISABLE, or
DON’T MODIFY (which means the EF2800 should not change any
drive’s SMART settings). The default setting is DON’T MODIFY.
When you enable SMART, the SMART events are recorded in the event
log, which lets you monitor your disk drives or analyze why a drive
failed. For more information, see section E.2, "Displaying the Event
Log" on page 260. On most drives, SMART is disabled by default by the
manufacturer.
A change to this setting on either SM module is automatically updated
on the other SM module.
To enable or disable SMART changes:
1. From the System Menu, select Configuration Menu and press
<Enter>. The Configuration Menu displays.
2. Select Disk Configuration and press <Enter>. The Disk
Configuration screen displays.
3. Select SMART and press <Enter>. The SMART screen displays
(Figure 155). The current setting is marked with an * next to it.
4. Select the option you want and press <Enter>.
5. Restart or rescan to have your changes take effect.
See section H.1.1, "Shutting Down and Restarting the Current SM
Module" on page 298 or section H.10, "Rescanning All Channels" on
page 314.
