“Alert Only” – it will trigger alert when there happens a SMART
fail drive.
3.7.6.2 Smart Polling Interval
Besides the scheduled volume check, user can define the Smart
Pulling Interval to pull the SMART status of each disk. The de-
fault is “on demand”.
User can schedule every certain period of time interval to pull
the SMART status of each disk. When SMART pulling is executed,
disk activity will be temporally halted until the SMART parameter
reading is finished. That is why you don’t want to set the Inter -
val too frequent. What to use is up to the users to decide based
on their applications and experiment results.
