+
+## Overview
+
+This collector monitors HDD/SSD S.M.A.R.T. metrics about drive health and performance.
+
+
+It reads `smartd` log files to collect the metrics.
+
+
+This collector is supported on all platforms.
+
+This collector only supports collecting metrics from a single instance of this integration.
+
+
+### Default Behavior
+
+#### Auto-Detection
+
+Upon satisfying the prerequisites, the collector will auto-detect metrics if written in either `/var/log/smartd/` or `/var/lib/smartmontools/`.
+
+#### Limits
+
+The default configuration for this integration does not impose any limits on data collection.
+
+#### Performance Impact
+
+The default configuration for this integration is not expected to impose a significant performance impact on the system.
+
+
+## Metrics
+
+Metrics grouped by *scope*.
+
+The scope defines the instance that the metric belongs to. An instance is uniquely identified by a set of labels.
+
+The metrics listed below are split in terms of availability on device type, SCSI or ATA.
+
+### Per S.M.A.R.T. instance
+
+These metrics refer to the entire monitored application.
+
+This scope has no labels.
+
+Metrics:

+## Alerts
+
+There are no alerts configured by default for this integration.
+
+
+## Setup
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+#### Configure `smartd` to write attribute information to files.
+
+`smartd` must be running with `-A` option to write `smartd` attribute information to files.
+
+For this you need to set `smartd_opts` (or `SMARTD_ARGS`, check _smartd.service_ content) in `/etc/default/smartmontools`:
+
+```
+# dump smartd attrs info every 600 seconds
+smartd_opts="-A /var/log/smartd/ -i 600"
+```
+
+You may need to create the smartd directory before smartd will write to it: 
+
+```sh
+mkdir -p /var/log/smartd
+```
+
+Otherwise, all the smartd `.csv` files may get written to `/var/lib/smartmontools` (default location). See also <https://linux.die.net/man/8/smartd> for more info on the `-A --attributelog=PREFIX` command.
+
+`smartd` appends logs at every run. It's strongly recommended to use `logrotate` for smartd files.
+
+
+
+### Configuration
+
+#### File
+
+The configuration file name for this integration is `python.d/smartd_log.conf`.
+
+
+You can edit the configuration file using the `edit-config` script from the
+Netdata [config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/netdata-agent/configuration.md#the-netdata-config-directory).
+
+```bash
+cd /etc/netdata 2>/dev/null || cd /opt/netdata/etc/netdata
+sudo ./edit-config python.d/smartd_log.conf
+```
+#### Options
+
+This particular collector does not need further configuration to work if permissions are satisfied, but you can always customize it's data collection behavior.
+
+There are 2 sections:
+
+* Global variables
+* One or more JOBS that can define multiple different instances to monitor.
+
+The following options can be defined globally: priority, penalty, autodetection_retry, update_every, but can also be defined per JOB to override the global values.
+
+Additionally, the following collapsed table contains all the options that can be configured inside a JOB definition.
+
+Every configuration JOB starts with a `job_name` value which will appear in the dashboard, unless a `name` parameter is specified.
+
+
+<details><summary>Config options</summary>
+
+| Name | Description | Default | Required |
+|:----|:-----------|:-------|:--------:|
+| log_path | path to smartd log files. | /var/log/smartd | yes |
+| exclude_disks | Space-separated patterns. If the pattern is in the drive name, the module will not collect data for it. |  | no |
+| age | Time in minutes since the last dump to file. | 30 | no |
+| update_every | Sets the default data collection frequency. | 1 | no |
+| priority | Controls the order of charts at the netdata dashboard. | 60000 | no |
+| autodetection_retry | Sets the job re-check interval in seconds. | 0 | no |
+| penalty | Indicates whether to apply penalty to update_every in case of failures. | yes | no |
+| name | Job name. This value will overwrite the `job_name` value. JOBS with the same name are mutually exclusive. Only one of them will be allowed running at any time. This allows autodetection to try several alternatives and pick the one that works. |  | no |
+
+</details>
+
+#### Examples
+
+##### Basic
+
+A basic configuration example.
+
+```yaml
+custom:
+  name: smartd_log
+  log_path: '/var/log/smartd/'
+
+```
+
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Debug Mode
+
+To troubleshoot issues with the `smartd_log` collector, run the `python.d.plugin` with the debug option enabled. The output
+should give you clues as to why the collector isn't working.
+
+- Navigate to the `plugins.d` directory, usually at `/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/`. If that's not the case on
+  your system, open `netdata.conf` and look for the `plugins` setting under `[directories]`.
+
+  ```bash
+  cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
+  ```
+
+- Switch to the `netdata` user.
+
+  ```bash
+  sudo -u netdata -s
+  ```
+
+- Run the `python.d.plugin` to debug the collector:
+
+  ```bash
+  ./python.d.plugin smartd_log debug trace
+  ```

+# netdata python.d.plugin configuration for smartd log
+#
+# This file is in YaML format. Generally the format is:
+#
+# name: value
+#
+# There are 2 sections:
+#  - global variables
+#  - one or more JOBS
+#
+# JOBS allow you to collect values from multiple sources.
+# Each source will have its own set of charts.
+#
+# JOB parameters have to be indented (using spaces only, example below).
+
+# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+# Global Variables
+# These variables set the defaults for all JOBs, however each JOB
+# may define its own, overriding the defaults.
+
+# update_every sets the default data collection frequency.
+# If unset, the python.d.plugin default is used.
+# update_every: 1
+
+# priority controls the order of charts at the netdata dashboard.
+# Lower numbers move the charts towards the top of the page.
+# If unset, the default for python.d.plugin is used.
+# priority: 60000
+
+# penalty indicates whether to apply penalty to update_every in case of failures.
+# Penalty will increase every 5 failed updates in a row. Maximum penalty is 10 minutes.
+# penalty: yes
+
+# autodetection_retry sets the job re-check interval in seconds.
+# The job is not deleted if check fails.
+# Attempts to start the job are made once every autodetection_retry.
+# This feature is disabled by default.
+# autodetection_retry: 0
+
+# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+# JOBS (data collection sources)
+#
+# The default JOBS share the same *name*. JOBS with the same name
+# are mutually exclusive. Only one of them will be allowed running at
+# any time. This allows autodetection to try several alternatives and
+# pick the one that works.
+#
+# Any number of jobs is supported.
+#
+# All python.d.plugin JOBS (for all its modules) support a set of
+# predefined parameters. These are:
+#
+# job_name:
+#     name: myname            # the JOB's name as it will appear at the
+#                             # dashboard (by default is the job_name)
+#                             # JOBs sharing a name are mutually exclusive
+#     update_every: 1         # the JOB's data collection frequency
+#     priority: 60000         # the JOB's order on the dashboard
+#     penalty: yes            # the JOB's penalty
+#     autodetection_retry: 0  # the JOB's re-check interval in seconds
+#
+# Additionally to the above, smartd_log also supports the following:
+#
+#    log_path: '/path/to/smartd_logs'    # path to smartd log files. Default is /var/log/smartd
+#    exclude_disks: 'PATTERN1 PATTERN2'  # space separated patterns. If the pattern is in the drive name, the module will not collect data for it.
+#    age: 30                             # time in minutes since the last dump to file. If smartd has not dumped data within this time the job exits.
