NAME
Disk::SMART - Provides an interface to smartctl
SYNOPSIS
Disk::SMART is an object ooriented module that provides an interface to get SMART disk info from a device as well as initiate testing. use Disk::SMART;
my $smart = Disk::SMART->new('/dev/sda');CONSTRUCTOR
new(DEVICE)
Instantiates the Disk::SMART object
DEVICE - Device identifier of SSD / Hard Drive. The constructor takes either a single device name, or an array of device names.
my $smart = Disk::SMART->new( 'dev/sda', '/dev/sdb' );Returns Disk::SMART object if smartctl is available and can poll the given device(s).
USER METHODS
get_disk_attributes(DEVICE)
Returns hash of the SMART disk attributes and values
DEVICE - Device identifier of SSD/ Hard Drive
my %disk_attributes = $smart->get_disk_attributes('/dev/sda');get_disk_errors(DEVICE)
Returns scalar of any listed errors
DEVICE - Device identifier of SSD/ Hard Drive
my $disk_errors = $smart->get_disk_errors('/dev/sda');get_disk_health(DEVICE)
Returns the health of the disk. Output is "PASSED", "FAILED", or "N/A".
DEVICE - Device identifier of SSD / Hard Drive
my $disk_health = $smart->get_disk_health('/dev/sda');get_disk_model(DEVICE)
Returns the model of the device. eg. "ST3250410AS".
DEVICE - Device identifier of SSD / Hard Drive
my $disk_model = $smart->get_disk_model('/dev/sda');get_disk_temp(DEVICE)
Returns an array with the temperature of the device in Celsius and Farenheit, or N/A.
DEVICE - Device identifier of SSD / Hard Drive
my ($temp_c, $temp_f) = $smart->get_disk_temp('/dev/sda');update_data
Updates the SMART output and attributes of a device. Returns undef.
DEVICE - Device identifier of SSD/ Hard Drive
$smart->update_data('/dev/sda');run_short_test
Runs the SMART short self test and returns the result.
DEVICE - Device identifier of SSD/ Hard Drive
$smart->run_short_test('/dev/sda');AUTHOR
