pySMART is a simple Python wrapper for the `smartctl` component of
`smartmontools`. It works under Linux and Windows, as long as smartctl is on
the system path. Running with administrative (root) privilege is strongly
recommended, as smartctl cannot accurately detect all device types or parse
all SMART information without full permissions.
With only a device's name (ie: /dev/sda, pd0), the API will create a
`Device` object, populated with all relevant information about
that device. The documented API can then be used to query this object for
information, initiate device self-tests, and perform other functions.
Usage
-----
The most common way to use pySMART is to create a logical representation of the
physical storage device that you would like to work with, as shown:
#!bash
>>> from pySMART import Device
>>> sda = Device('/dev/sda')
>>> sda
<SATA device on /dev/sda mod:WDC WD5000AAKS-60Z1A0 sn:WD-WCAWFxxxxxxx>
`Device` class members can be accessed directly, and a number of helper methods
are provided to retrieve information in bulk. Some examples are shown below:
#!bash
>>> sda.assessment # Query the SMART self-assessment
'PASS'
>>> sda.attributes[9] # Query a single SMART attribute
<SMART Attribute 'Power_On_Hours' 068/000 raw:23644>
>>> sda.all_attributes() # Print the entire SMART attribute table
ID# ATTRIBUTE_NAME CUR WST THR TYPE UPDATED WHEN_FAIL RAW
1 Raw_Read_Error_Rate 200 200 051 Pre-fail Always - 0
3 Spin_Up_Time 141 140 021 Pre-fail Always - 3908
4 Start_Stop_Count 098 098 000 Old_age Always - 2690
5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct 200 200 140 Pre-fail Always - 0
... # Edited for brevity
199 UDMA_CRC_Error_Count 200 200 000 Old_age Always - 0
200 Multi_Zone_Error_Rate 200 200 000 Old_age Offline - 0
>>> sda.tests[0] # Query the most recent self-test result
<SMART Self-test [Short offline|Completed without error] hrs:23734 lba:->
>>> sda.all_selftests() # Print the entire self-test log
ID Test_Description Status Left Hours 1st_Error@lba
1 Short offline Completed without error 00% 23734 -
2 Short offline Completed without error 00% 23734 -
... # Edited for brevity
7 Short offline Completed without error 00% 23726 -
8 Short offline Completed without error 00% 1 -
Alternatively, the package provides a `DeviceList` class. When instantiated,
this will auto-detect all local storage devices and create a list containing
one `Device` object for each detected storage device.
#!bash
>>> from pySMART import DeviceList
>>> devlist = DeviceList()
>>> devlist
<DeviceList contents:
<SAT device on /dev/sdb mod:WDC WD20EADS-00R6B0 sn:WD-WCAVYxxxxxxx>
<SAT device on /dev/sdc mod:WDC WD20EADS-00S2B0 sn:WD-WCAVYxxxxxxx>
<CSMI device on /dev/csmi0,0 mod:WDC WD5000AAKS-60Z1A0 sn:WD-WCAWFxxxxxxx>
>
>>> devlist.devices[0].attributes[5] # Access Device data as above
<SMART Attribute 'Reallocated_Sector_Ct' 173/140 raw:214>
In the above cases if a new DeviceList is empty or a specific Device reports an
"UNKNOWN INTERFACE", you are likely running without administrative privileges.
On POSIX systems, you can request smartctl is run as a superuser by setting the
sudo attribute of the global SMARTCTL object to True. Note this may cause you
to be prompted for a password.
#!bash
>>> from pySMART import DeviceList
>>> from pySMART import Device
>>> sda = Device('/dev/sda')
>>> sda
<UNKNOWN INTERFACE device on /dev/sda mod:None sn:None>
>>> devlist = DeviceList()
>>> devlist
<DeviceList contents:
>
>>> from pySMART import SMARTCTL
>>> SMARTCTL.sudo = True
>>> sda = Device('/dev/sda')
>>> sda
[sudo] password for user:
<SAT device on /dev/sda mod:ST10000DM0004-1ZC101 sn:ZA20VNPT>
>>> devlist = DeviceList()
>>> devlist
<DeviceList contents:
<NVME device on /dev/nvme0 mod:Sabrent Rocket 4.0 1TB sn:03850709185D88300410>
<NVME device on /dev/nvme1 mod:Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 2TB sn:S59CNM0RB05028D>
<NVME device on /dev/nvme2 mod:Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 2TB sn:S59CNM0RB05113H>
<SAT device on /dev/sda mod:ST10000DM0004-1ZC101 sn:ZA20VNPT>
<SAT device on /dev/sdb mod:ST10000DM0004-1ZC101 sn:ZA22W366>
<SAT device on /dev/sdc mod:ST10000DM0004-1ZC101 sn:ZA22SPLG>
<SAT device on /dev/sdd mod:ST10000DM0004-1ZC101 sn:ZA2215HL>
>
In general, it is recommended to run the base script with enough privileges to
execute smartctl, but this is not possible in all cases, so this workaround is
provided as a convenience. However, note that using sudo inside other
non-terminal projects may cause dev-bugs/issues.
Using the pySMART wrapper, Python applications be be rapidly developed to take
advantage of the powerful features of smartmontools.
Acknowledgements
----------------
I would like to thank the entire team behind smartmontools for creating and
maintaining such a fantastic product.
In particular I want to thank Christian Franke, who maintains the Windows port
of the software. For several years I have written Windows batch files that
rely on smartctl.exe to automate evaluation and testing of large pools of
storage devices under Windows. Without his work, my job would have been
significantly more miserable. :)
Having recently migrated my development from Batch to Python for Linux
portability, I thought a simple wrapper for smartctl would save time in the
development of future automated test tools.
