    8: # signal

   10: # The file gives a list of devices to monitor using smartd, with one
   11: # device per line. Text after a hash (#) is ignored, and you may use
   12: # spaces and tabs for white space. You may use '\' to continue lines.
   13: 
   14: # You can usually identify which hard disks are on your system by
   15: # looking in /proc/ide and in /proc/scsi.
   16: 
   17: # The word DEVICESCAN will cause any remaining lines in this
   18: # configuration file to be ignored: it tells smartd to scan for all
   19: # ATA and SCSI devices.  DEVICESCAN may be followed by any of the
   20: # Directives listed below, which will be applied to all devices that
   21: # are found.  Most users should comment out DEVICESCAN and explicitly
   22: # list the devices that they wish to monitor.

  138: # Attribute ID is a decimal integer 1 <= ID <= 255
  139: # except for -C and -U, where ID = 0 turns them off.
  140: # All but -d, -m and -M Directives are only implemented for ATA devices
  141: #
  142: # If the test string DEVICESCAN is the first uncommented text
  143: # then smartd will scan for devices /dev/hd[a-l] and /dev/sd[a-z]
  144: # DEVICESCAN may be followed by any desired Directives.
