This warning (not error) appears in journalctl log:
smartmontools.service: Referenced but unset environment variable
evaluates to an empty string: smartd_opts
Fix:
Add one line to /etc/default/smartmontools setting smartd_opts to an empty
string
Existing file /etc/default/smartmontools:
# Defaults for smartmontools initscript (/etc/init.d/smartmontools)
# This is a POSIX shell fragment
# List of devices you want to explicitly enable S.M.A.R.T. for
# Not needed (and not recommended) if the device is monitored by smartd
#enable_smart="/dev/hda /dev/hdb"
# uncomment to pass additional options to smartd on startup
#smartd_opts="--interval=1800"
File with fix (additional line) added:
