pySMART

Copyright (C) 2014 Marc Herndon

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.

    • conveyance - Brief test used to identify damage incurred in shipping. Generally takes 5 minutes or less. This test is not supported by SAS or SCSI devices.
    • offline - Runs SMART Immediate Offline Test. The effects of this test are visible only in that it updates the SMART Attribute values, and if errors are found they will appear in the SMART error log, visible with the '-l error' option to smartctl. This test is not supported by SAS or SCSI devices in pySMART use cli smartctl for running 'offline' selftest (runs in foreground) on scsi devices.
  • output (str, optional): If set to 'str', the string representation of the most recent test result will be returned, instead of a Test_Entry object.
  • polling (int, default=5): The time duration to sleep for between checking for test_results and progress.
  • progress_handler (function, optional): This if provided is called with self._test_progress as the supplied argument everytime a poll to check the status of the selftest is done.

    Returns:

  • (int): Return status code. One of the following:

    • 0 - Self-test executed and finished successfully
    • 1 - Previous self-test running. Must wait for it to finish.
    • 2 - Unknown or illegal test type requested.
    • 3 - The Self-test was Aborted by host
    • 4 - Unspecified smartctl error. Self-test not initiated.
  • (Test_Entry or str): Most recent Test_Entry object (or optionally it's string representation) if new data exists. Status message string on failure.
