Hello all,
I am having a heck of a time getting smartd to work reliably.
For some unknown, stupid, reason the smartd service in FreeNAS is not generating a smartd.conf file, thus when I start the service from the gui /var/log/messages shows:
$ root: /usr/local/etc/rc/d/smartd-daemon WARNING: /usr/local/etc/smard.conf is not readable
When I navigate to that directory, smartd.conf isn't even there.
So I manually created one and got the service to work, until a reboot wiped away the file and the service is in a failed state again.
What can I do to permanently fix this and get FreeNAS to properly generate a smartd.conf file?
