Home assistant addon : Scrutiny (SMART dashboard)

Installation Home Assistant OS

Sorry for the probably stupid question, but I’m unable to add the repo. I went to Settings > Add-ons > Store > Top-right menu > Repositories > added this URL https://github.com/alexbelgium/hassio-addons… Then it spinned, spinned, and nothing happened. Going for “check for updates” eventually causes a popup telling me to check logs. There, I found two error logs:

Logger: homeassistant.components.hassio
Source: components/hassio/websocket_api.py:124
Integration: Home Assistant Supervisor (documentation, issues)
First occurred: 23:08:49 (3 occurrences)

Failed to to call /addons/reload -
------------------------------------------
Logger: homeassistant.components.hassio.handler
Source: components/hassio/handler.py:476
[same]
Timeout on /addons/reload request

This doesn’t happen if I remove the repository or add the example repository from the HA docs…

Running Home Assistant 2023.2.5, Supervisor 2023.01.1, Operating System 9.5.

Any help is appreciated!

Dear all,
i hope you can help with an issue I have with Scrutiny. The Add-on is great and shows me all the necessary data in the dashboard. But I would like to setup a sensor for warning purpose for specific data points, such as LBA written , power-on-hours or endurance remaining.
Unfortunately I can’t get it working to show me the data. HA logs shows me a warning:
JSON result was not a dictionary or list with 0th element a dictionary.
Which seems that the json attribute path is incorrect. The sensor only shows “OK” and no value at all.
I used the below example and updated IP and ADDONPORT accordingly. Clicking the link gives me a list of datapoints. So looks like the information is available.
Thank you in advance and greeting

Issue has been resolved. I used JSON Path Finder to find the correct path and attributes. Readout with

        value_template: "Healthy"

          - smart

      - name: "HDD_Model"

        value_template: "{{ state_attr('sensor.hdd_disk_ha','device').model_name }}"

Thanks, I’ll adapt the readme

Is the readme updated?

Any hints on how to fix this would be great.

Tried uninstall but warning continues after every reboot.

I deleted its repository from the add-on store and the warnings stopped.

It’s corrected thanks, I’ve removed the source of the message

Running HassOS on a 2012 Mac mini booting from an external OWC USB RAID box. I can see the smart status of this drive in Ubuntu on another Mac mini server but Scrutiny doesn’t seem to pull in the details. Any settings that I can change? I have tried both versions and turned on and off the protection mode.

I tried to set up scrutiny using the latest available addon version https://github.com/alexbelgium/hassio-addons/tree/master/scrutiny. Unfortunately, this version v0.7.2-3 is based on smartmontools 7.2 which do not support my Samsung T7 SSD. Support was added in smartmontools 7.3 https://www.smartmontools.org/changeset/5169 together with the ‘-d sntasmedia’ device type for ASMedia ASM2362.
The addon by @alexbelgium is based on a linuxserver dockerfile, which is no longer supported https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-scrutiny#deprecation-notice

Any chance to provide an updated addon based on the official docker file? https://github.com/AnalogJ/scrutiny?tab=readme-ov-file#docker

Is the Scrutiny config for configuring notifications accessible in this add-on? I see that the collector.yaml is exposed, but can’t find the scrutiny.yaml.

Hello
Despite my settings, my dashboard is empty:

Hi, it’s on v0.8.0 I’ve switched to the official dockerfile since :slight_smile:

97

Hi, you could use portainer or the console to add the scrutiny.yaml file in /data/config ; it would be picked up directly by scrutiny. In a future version I’ll put those files in /config which will allow accessing there more easily using the Filebrowser addon (as for my other addons)

Wrong post. Sorry.

I’ve got a HDD which is failing and it shows in Scrutiny as Failed:

However, the rest sensor in HA still says OK? I’m assuming there’s something wrong with the template in the example from the readme? Any template gurus help would be much appreciated!

  - verify_ssl: false
    scan_interval: 60
    resource: http://db21ed7f-scrutiny-fa:8086/api/device/0x5000c5000daedee6/details
    binary_sensor:
      - name: "HDD - NAS4 SMART Status"
        value_template: "{{ bool(value_json.data.smart_results[0].Status) }}"
        device_class: problem
        unique_id: HDD NAS4 SMART Status

Also, a slightly less important request, how do we change the name of the instance from “HOME_ASSISTANT” ?

EDIT:
Looking at the api json it seems to be reading the status from smart_results, Status which is indeed 0 for some reason. The device_status in device reads 2 so I’ve tried changing the json to no effect:
value_template: "{{ bool(value_json.data.device[0].device_status) }}"

Hi, that’s because Scrutiny evaluates status in two manners : the actual SMART pass/fail (which is read by the API and is pass), and the probability that it might fail based on an algorithm that I forgot, which is the fail status that you see. In the Scrutiny settings you can configure which of the two methods you want to use. I had to select the “Smart” one as my “Scrunity” one thought my disk was failing nearly out of the box.

You then probably need to adapt the value. According to my device details, my device which is PASS for SMART & Scrutiny has a "device_status": 0 while my device which is FAIL for Scrutiny and PASS for Smart has "device_status": 2

This could be relevant as discordance between reality and status : [BUG] Disk showing as failed while no properties or operation hints at actual failure · Issue #480 · AnalogJ/scrutiny (github.com)

So in the end, perhaps the upstream repo (linked above) can also help you in the best possible setting

Thanks for the info. Interesting that it could report false positives. I know this one is on it’s way out though!

I’ve set the “Device Status - Thresholds” to Scrutiny and it’s still saying OK?
I’ve checked the api json and the smart results the template uses is still 0

You then probably need to adapt the value. According to my device details, my device which is PASS for SMART & Scrutiny has a "device_status": 0 while my device which is FAIL for Scrutiny and PASS for Smart has "device_status": 2

Sorry, I’m not sure what you mean by adapt the value? If you mean change the template, then I agree, but that’s what I need help with!

This is the start of the api:

{
  "data": {
    "device": {
      "CreatedAt": "2024-07-11T21:54:54.025602638+01:00",

      "DeletedAt": null,
      "wwn": "0x5000c5000daedee6",
      "device_name": "sdf",
      "device_uuid": "",
      "device_serial_id": "ata-ST31000340AS_9QJ1X0NR",
      "device_label": "",
      "manufacturer": "",
      "model_name": "ST31000340AS",

      "interface_speed": "",
      "serial_number": "9QJ1X0NR",
      "firmware": "SD15",
      "rotational_speed": 7200,
      "capacity": 1000204886016,
      "form_factor": "",
      "smart_support": false,
      "device_protocol": "ATA",
      "device_type": "sat",
      "label": "",
      "host_id": "home_assistant",
      "device_status": 2
    },
    "smart_results": [
      {

The "device_status": 2 is what needs to be read by the sensor?

102

Also, any idea on this?

103

This could work :

    binary_sensor:
      - name: "HDD - SMART Status"
        value_template: "{{ 1 if value_json.data.smart_results[0].Status in [1, 2] else 0 }}"
        device_class: problem
