If using Linux, smart runs as a daemon and watches all drives. What I've done is create a cron job that searches /var/log/messages for the word smart and emails me the result. If I get a blank message, no drive problems,

The following url has a sample of what /var/log/messages might show if smart has something to report: http://defindit.com/readme_files/smartd_smartctl.html

Thankyou Anne.

I just installed this and its seems to work. I am behind a RAID
controller so hopefully anyone with cciss drivers can shed some light.
I am able to see my logical devices but I have 6 drives per logical
device. I would like to see all 12 drive status if possible.

Welcome! This is the home page for the smartmontools package.

I use this, and it's worth noting that it can be run on windows boxes, too.
