I'm having a couple issues getting smartd running.
The first issue appears in the server messages when smartd attempts to start:
/dev/da7 is a hardware RAID disk on a PERC H710.
If I try to disable SMART tests for any hardware RAID disks through the GUI, the serial number reported for these disks is greater than 30 characters. Now this shows an error when trying to make changes:
Not much I can do, since this field cannot be edited, so now I can't change disk settings (power/SMART).
To get smartd to start, I had to manually remove the offending lines in /usr/local/etc/smartd.conf.

Ensure this value has at most 30 characters (it has 32).
