PHP - Smart: G-sense_error_rate Goes Through The Roof

hello dear php-freaks     at the moment i am installing and investigating.   i have several notebooks here.     i install linux and  besides these tasks - i test several notebooks.     i need to test harddrives.   question:  how to run smartmonttools on opensuse

i found out that this package is one of the best ones http://www.smartmontools.org/

is the package allready installed on opensuse 13.2?


i need to run it to check the healthy of the hdd   btw: is smart - allready included in the gparted-Live-DvD

hello dear php-experts good day     well at the moment i try to figure out how to test the healthy of my harddrive.
How do I use SMART tools to check on my notebooks  hard drive? That is the question of the day for me. i want to run a SMART-Test on my notebook to test the harddrive.

i have opensuse 13.1 on the machine: and the SMART-Tools are installed.


SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) is a technology included in most hard drives today.


Short test: According to the documentation, this command can be given during normal system operation (unless run in captive mode).


i can run the test: 

smartctl --test=short /dev/sda1

see here what happens:  

martin@linux-70ce:~> su
	Passwort:
	linux-70ce:/home/martin # smartctl --test=short /dev/sda1
	smartctl 6.2 2013-07-26 r3841 [i686-linux-3.11.10-25-desktop] (SUSE RPM)
	Copyright (C) 2002-13, Bruce Allen, Christian Franke, www.smartmontools.org
	
	=== START OF OFFLINE IMMEDIATE AND SELF-TEST SECTION ===
	Sending command: "Execute SMART Short self-test routine immediately in off-line mode".
	Drive command "Execute SMART Short self-test routine immediately in off-line mode" successful.
	Testing has begun.
	Please wait 2 minutes for test to complete.
	Test will complete after Tue Jan 20 00:29:16 2015
	
	Use smartctl -X to abort test.
	linux-70ce:/home/martin #

hmm - this seems to be a short (quick ) test. But i have to wait to see the results. Question: do they come to the terminal - are they are shown in the terminal?



btw: i also can run the Long Test:

The long test can also be run on a live system, and will do a lot deeper testing on the device, however it will take significantly longer to finish.
smartctl --test=long /dev/sda smartctl



well - how can i run tests on all the partitions:  is this possible to do this with only one single step?

but what can i do if i want to Get it all:


there are options to do that - getting it all:

The next and last command will output all the information the drive can possibly give. In the response below I have selectively removed a lot of output because there is a lot information to go through. My main point is the command and something I will get to in just a second.

smartctl -a /dev/sda Device Mode

since the harddrive has differnet partitions - the question arises: how to test all at once?

question: which way to get the drive  tested in one single step
are there options to do that - getting it all in a single command.



look forward to any and all hints and help

greetings
