ERROR on SMART/DEVICES section

I have about 20 drives. I have activated SMART for many drives.

When I open the SMART/DEVICES section the system returns a "COMMUNICATION FAILURE" after about 20/25 seconds.

I guess that having too many drives to interrogate we reach a TIMEOUT situation.

Otherwhise, feel free to give me your opinion on how to resolve the situation.

Hi;

After a re-installation; I have the same error.

my 1st installation
I made the RAID, LUKS, LVM, and formatted all drive via the debian-install
and the SMART/DEVICE was showing my 4 devices.

on the second installation
I just reformat the partition
and the SMART/DEVICE give me a COMMUNICATION FAILURE
but smartd and smartctl work on CLI

@GiuseppeChillemi did you're drives was already formated or you did it with OMV ?

doh! I forgot to mention I use OMV4

I have just formatted them in OMV3.x
Also I do no use SMART monitoring anymore as with 20+ DRIVES it seems that multiple long error/timeouts cause MDADM to kick the drive.
(It is just a theory, must be confirmed)
