   7 # smartd will re-read the configuration file if it receives a HUP
   8 # signal

  10 # The file gives a list of devices to monitor using smartd, with one
  11 # device per line. Text after a hash (#) is ignored, and you may use
  12 # spaces and tabs for white space. You may use '\' to continue lines.
  13
  14 # You can usually identify which hard disks are on your system by
  15 # looking in /proc/ide and in /proc/scsi.
  16
  17 # The word DEVICESCAN will cause any remaining lines in this
  18 # configuration file to be ignored: it tells smartd to scan for all
  19 # ATA and SCSI devices.  DEVICESCAN may be followed by any of the
  20 # Directives listed below, which will be applied to all devices that
  21 # are found.  Most users should comment out DEVICESCAN and explicitly
  22 # list the devices that they wish to monitor.

 132 #   -W D,I,C Monitor Temperature D)ifference, I)nformal limit, C)ritical limit
 133 #   -v N,ST Modifies labeling of Attribute N (see man page)

 138 #    \      Line continuation character
 139 # Attribute ID is a decimal integer 1 <= ID <= 255
 140 # except for -C and -U, where ID = 0 turns them off.
 141 # All but -d, -m and -M Directives are only implemented for ATA devices
 142 #
 143 # If the test string DEVICESCAN is the first uncommented text
 144 # then smartd will scan for devices.
 145 # DEVICESCAN may be followed by any desired Directives.
