------------------------------------------+---------------------------------
 smartd, a component of smartmontools can save SMART attribute data and
 state information to files so that this data is available the next time
 smartd runs. The location of these files is controlled by the
 --attributelog/-A and  --savestates/-s command line parameters
 [http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/man/smartd.8.html smartd.8 man
 page].

 By default, neither param is set when smartmontools is installed. Both
 have default values that store files in the directory
 /opt/local/var/lib/smartmontools/. But this directory isn't created at
 install time, so nothing gets written.

 Creating the directory /opt/local/var/lib/smartmontools/ fixes this
 problem.
