Viewing SMART Data About a Drive
You can view SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting
Technology) data about a drive to help troubleshoot problems that occur.
SMART data is available on all disk drives (unit members, Single Disks, and
Hot Spares).
You can also set self-tests that will check the SMART attributes and post
messages to the Alarms page when they are exceeded. For more information,
see “Selecting Self-tests to be Performed” on page 80.
To view SMART data
1 Choose Information > Drive Information from the menu bar.
2 On the Drive Information page, click the port number for the drive you
are interested in.
A window showing details of the SMART data opens. The data is shown
as hex values.
