New in Version 3.15
This script will perform five main functions:
- Generate a report and send an email on your drive(s) status.
- Create a copy of your TrueNAS Config File and attach to the same email.
- Create a statistical database and attach to the same email.
- Test the drives on a routine basis.
- Check drives for being SMR or Seagate Drive Flood SCAM by China.
In version 3.1 I have removed drive testing from the Multi-Report script and move testing into it's own script. This makes it easy to remove when TrueNAS fully supports NVMe SMART testing, and makes it easier for me up modify/update.
The new drive testing script is called "Drive-Selftest". It was designed to schedule both Short and Long drive test scheduling without much effort form the end user. This will prove to be very valuable if you have a large quantity of drives in your system.
Other functions include Updates Notification and is highly customizable. A User Guide exists (needs a bit of updating).
Drive Self-test is a new script specifically to perform the SMART testing. The SMART testing was removed from Multi-Report placed in this script. This script has many benefits being a seperate script:
- Easier to maintain.
- Run standalone without Multi-Report.
- Schedules both Short and Long tests to be accomplished Daily, Weekly, and/or Monthly.
- Can schedule over 1000 drives to be tested.
- Can test ONLY Nvme while TrueNAS is not able to schedule NVMe SMART tests in the GUI.
