Disks and Devices Description : SMARTmontools controls and monitors storage devices using the Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology System (S.M.A.R.T.) built into ATA, SATA and SCSI Hard Drives. This is used to check the hard drive reliability and to predict drive failures. The suite contains two utilities. The first, smartctl, is a command line utility designed to perform simple S.M.A.R.T. tasks. The second, smartd, is a daemon that periodically monitors the smart status and reports errors to syslog. The package is compatible with the ATA/ATAPI-3 to -7 specification. The package is intended to incorporate as much "vendor specific" and "reserved" information as possible about disk drives. The commands man smartctl and man smartd will provide more information. Authors: -------- Bruce Allen <smartmontools-support@lists.sourceforge.net> Distribution: Base:System / openSUSE_11.3 ----------------- This seems to be a common problem with Intel SSDs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/smartmontools/+bug/597518 http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/smartmontools/browser/tags/RELEASE_5_40/smartmontools/NEWS http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-6496792.html?sid=868568d3e5153dabe659c0ac9bafe848 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=560701 Should I report this upstream?
Ping...
Since Base:System / openSUSE_11.3 seems to be gone, I downgraded to the version in 11.3 (5.39.1-3.1); I can reproduce the problem there. I've also reported the bug upstream: https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/smartmontools/ticket/137
Since using 5.39.1-3.1 with the latest kernel the problem seems to be gone; I'll keep watching for problems.
As I commented in the opensuse factory mailing list, this is a bug in the SSD firware, it has been fixed by Intel "8 January 2011 Firmware version : 2CV102M3 This firmware revision fixes enumeration and slow-boot issues on SATA 6Gb/s controllers, adds improvements to S.M.A.R.T. attributes for more accurate reporting of drive health, improves NCQ capability, and fixes possible drive hangs when reading S.M.A.R.T. self-test log."
