The Windows Event log service does not have a message file registered when the smartd service is installed. This results in Event log messages similar to:

The description for Event ID ( 2 ) in Source ( smartd ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: smartd, 3648, Info, Device:
.\scsi1: [areca_disk#08_enc#01], SMART Usage Attribute: 190 Airflow_Temperature_Cel changed from 69 to 68, Device:
.\scsi1: [areca_disk#08_enc#01], SMART Usage Attribute: 194 Temperature_Celsius changed from 31 to 32.

Registry entry keys can be added to fix this issue at

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog\Application\smartd

For my system:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog\Application\smartd]

Every time I use smartctl I get these on /var/messages:

Still, smartctl works ok.

Why would smartctl show the SMART Health status as 'ok' when the device does not support SMART ? Below is output of the commands.

smartctl -H /dev/sda
