Read NVMe SMART/Health Information failed: NVMe Status 0x6002

[Sider]

Hello,

There is a problem with reading SMART data from NVMe drive Toshiba RC100. Is there a workaround? Web search didn't bring any result, even didn't description of the error code.
Here is full output:

Read NVMe SMART/Health Information failed: NVMe Status 0x6002

[Christian Franke]

Please test: smartctl -x /dev/nvme0

[Sider]

Aha, much better, thanks. The problem now remains only in WEBMIN, which recognizes this drive as /dev/nvme0n1 and therefore doesnt show it's SMART data.

Please test smartctl -d nvme,0xffffffff -x /dev/nvme0n1.

If this works, the problem is that this drive requires that the broadcast namespace is specified if SMART/Health and Error Information logs are requested. This issue was unspecified in early revisions of the NVMe standard.

Option -d nvme,0xffffffff should no longer be necessary with smartctl >= r4671.

[Sider]

It works, thanks. I thought I have the latest version :)
How do I upgrade to smartctl >= r4671?
The changes in the link are for source code, as far as I understand. Is there a compiled version for Ubuntu 18.04 server?

[Sider]

One more thing:
these strings are missing in all outputs:

SMART support is: Available - device has SMART capability.
SMART support is: Enabled

What might be the reason?

[Christian Franke]

How do I upgrade to smartctl >= r4671?

Build from source or use a recent ​CircleCI build.

Is there a compiled version for Ubuntu 18.04 server?

No, the ​official repository still provides only this post-6.5 r4324 snapshot release. The real 6.6 release (r4594) is only available for 19.04. The Ubuntu package follows the ​Debian package.

[Christian Franke]

Already fixed in r4671.

[Christian Franke]

these strings are missing in all outputs:

SMART support is: Available - device has SMART capability.
SMART support is: Enabled

What might be the reason?

Unlike ATA/SATA, NVMe drives have no optional SMART support which could be unavailable or disabled. The NVMe SMART/Health Information log is mandatory.

In general, diagnostic info from ATA/SATA, SCSI/SAS and NVMe differ considerably and so do smartctl outputs.
