There was proposed policy "Enable smartd by default" which caused enabling it on update. Therefore distribution upgrade forced starting of smartd. Maybe we can turn this policy off, since upgrade 10.2->11.3 and SLE10->SLE12 will not be supported and smartd was already activated for users using supported upgrade schemes. I guess it's possible to change "Force start" policy to "Enable on first install". Actually, what is your problem with smartd? It should be fixed as well. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I'd simply uninstall smartmontools, but I'd like to keep the option of running smartctl manually. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

In fact, SMART has never done anything useful for me. Disks it reported defective worked for years, disks that were definitely broken were reported as "okay". So I want to disable smartd without uninstalling it. Is this that unreasonable? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Accrding to the documentation, it should start on installation, but not start on upgrade if it was turned off manually. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
