It does not contain info\nspecific to other platforms.]\n\nupdate-smart-drivedb updates /var/lib/smartmontools/drivedb/drivedb.h or DESTFILE from\nbranches/RELEASE72DRIVEDB of smartmontools SVN repository.\n\nThe tools used for downloading are either curl(1), wget(1), lynx(1), or svn(1).\n\nThe downloaded file is verified with OpenPGP/GPG key ID 721042C5. The public key block is\nincluded in the script.\n\nThe old file is kept if the downloaded file is identical (ignoring the differences in Id\nstring) otherwise it is moved to drivedb.h.old.\n\n### OPTIONS\n\n#### -s SMARTCTL\n\nUse the smartctl(8) executable at path SMARTCTL for drive database syntax check. The\nform '-s -' disables the syntax check. The default is /usr/sbin/smartctl.\n\n#### -t TOOL\n\nUse TOOL for download. TOOL is one of: curl wget lynx svn. The default is the first\none found in PATH.\n\n#### -u LOCATION\n\nUse URL of LOCATION for download. LOCATION is one of:\ngithub (GitHub mirror of SVN repository),\nsf (Sourceforge code browser),\nsvn (SVN repository),\nsvni (SVN repository via HTTP instead of HTTPS),\ntrac (Trac code browser).\nThe default is svn.\n\n#### --trunk\n\nDownload from SVN trunk. This requires '--no-verify' unless the trunk version is\nstill identical to branches/RELEASE72DRIVEDB.\n\n#### --branch X.Y\n\n[NEW EXPERIMENTAL UPDATE-SMART-DRIVEDB FEATURE] Download from branches/RE‐\nLEASEXYDRIVEDB. This also selects the OpenPGP/GPG key for older branches (5.40 to\n6.6: Key ID DFD22559).\n\n#### --cacert FILE\n\nUse CA certificates from FILE to verify the peer.\n\n#### --capath DIR\n\nUse CA certificate files from DIR to verify the peer.\n\n#### --insecure\n\nDon't abort download if certificate verification fails. This option is also required\nif a HTTP URL is selected with '-u' option.\n\n#### --no-verify\n\nDon't verify signature with GnuPG.\n\n#### --export-key\n\nPrint the OpenPGP/GPG public key block.\n\n#### --dryrun\n\nPrint download commands only.\n\n#### -v\n\n### EXAMPLES\n\n# update-smart-drivedb\n/var/lib/smartmontools/drivedb/drivedb.h updated from \\\nbranches/RELEASE72DRIVEDB\n\n### EXIT STATUS\n\nThe exit status is 0 if the database has been successfully updated. If an error occurs the\nexit status is 1.\n\n### FILES\n\n#### /usr/sbin/update-smart-drivedb\n\nfull path of this script.\n\n#### /usr/sbin/smartctl\n\nused to check syntax of new drive database.\n\n#### /var/lib/smartmontools/drivedb/drivedb.h\n\ncurrent drive database.\n\n#### /var/lib/smartmontools/drivedb/drivedb.h.raw\n\ncurrent drive database with unexpanded SVN Id string.\n\n#### /var/lib/smartmontools/drivedb/drivedb.h.raw.asc\n\nsignature file.\n\n/var/lib/smartmontools/drivedb/drivedb.h.*old*\nprevious files.\n\n/var/lib/smartmontools/drivedb/drivedb.h.*error*\nnew files if rejected due to errors.\n\n#### /var/lib/smartmontools/drivedb/drivedb.h.lastcheck\n\nempty file created if downloaded file was identical.\n\n### AUTHORS\n\nChristian Franke.\nThis manual page was originally written by Hannes von Haugwitz .\n\n### REPORTING BUGS\n\nTo submit a bug report, create a ticket in smartmontools wiki:\n.\nAlternatively send the info to the smartmontools support mailing list:\n.\n\n### SEE ALSO\n\nsmartctl(8), smartd(8).\n\n### PACKAGE VERSION\n\nsmartmontools-7.2 2020-12-30 r5155\n$Id: update-smart-drivedb.8.in 5112 2020-11-07 11:41:13Z chrfranke $\n\n\n\nsmartmontools-7.2 2020-12-30 UPDATE-SMART-DRIVEDB(8)\n\n" } ], "structuredContent": { "command": "update-smart-drivedb", "section": "8", "mode": "man", "summary": "update-smart-drivedb - update smartmontools drive database", "synopsis": "update-smart-drivedb [OPTIONS] [DESTFILE]", "flags": [ { "flag": "-s", "long": null, "arg": "SMARTCTL", "description": "Use the smartctl(8) executable at path SMARTCTL for drive database syntax check.
