Hi Xen users,
just a short info, perhaps this is relevant for you as well: I noticed
that smartmontools/smartd silently stopped working in my Debian Bookworm
setup a couple of months ago, presumably after an update (couldn't
pinpoint the specific, right now, I'm on version 7.3-1+b1). Contrary to
my expectation, I wouldn't have been notified via e-mail if there had
been errors in the SMART logs. The cause is that there is a new check in
the smartd.service file "ConditionVirtualization=no", which checks if
smartd is running in a vm. If it detects a vm, smart doesn't start.
There is a message in the logs if you look for it, but to look for it,
you first have to have a reason to do so.
Commenting out the line solves this issue.
There is a discussion on GitHub on this:

Best regards,
Paul
