For example I do have (among others) a rule in my ignore.d.server/local-smartd on one box that ignores changes of the Hardware_ECC_Recovered SMART usage attribute in the range 46 to 48 for a specific drive that did change that value in that range back and forth regularly. But at some point a few months ago the value did shoot up to about 70 and I was alarmed of this by logcheck and thus was able to take action about 2 weeks before smartd started to report a failing self test for the first time and finally unrecoverable errors. So I do think that it is a good thing to receive these. elmar -- .'"`. /"\ | :' : Elmar Hoffmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ASCII Ribbon Campaign \ / `. `' GPG key available via pgp.net against HTML email X `- & vCards / \
