[smartmontools-support] Question about smartd on Windows

[Piotr Kapelański]

Hello, I'm using small batch file http://pastebin.com/Cn3qG83g on
Windows to dump smart info and copy it to another computer. It's run
from Task Scheduler once a week. I was wondering if I could get same
effect using smartd service, but I can't find any examples and from
what I could find I can only schedule self tests.

Smartd could do much more, e.g. checking smart status, logging attribute
changes, logging attributes in a .csv file, sending mail on errors, ...
See smartd.conf man page for details.

But if you want a full smartctl report each day or week, the Task
Scheduler is the method of choice.

Thanks,

What's the point in doing so?
