I would do:
Make a backup : image ( as Alson Said) or copy important files to a healthy
filesystem

for smartmon:
I made  a baclground program to call smarctl tool in a duration of time and
parse the info, and send notification to the Web interface via socket ( this
was for the retail project, complicated due on user friendlyt)

for using smartd:
smartd always create log file as my understanding or sending an email (
based on your configuration)


can you run smartctl on the command line to check you Harddisk?
it should show you the  errors.

as I know, smartctl sometimes fails to probe  some harddrives.
Like on my linux box. smartctl  can not probe my  SATA  harddisk  ( could be
my problem)

Cheers,

Yes, I have smartmontools installed but I didn't get any notifications
in weeks or months from smartd.

The desktop is a Debian etch/testing box, and I had etch's latest
package installed.

The smartd.conf for hda (which is the only hard drive) is

/dev/hda -a -o on -S on -s (S/../.././02|L/../../6/03) -m

The box was always running, so the box would be running when the 2 a.m.
short self-test and Saturday
3 a.m. were scheduled.

/var/ was on a different partition.  I've run fsck.reiserfs on that
partition, and mounted it, and found no smartd logfile.  Does smartd
write a logfile?

If --rebuild-tree is the last option for you, what ther options are
there before --rebuild-tree?

Thanks in advance.
