Bingo. Guessed so. SMART is IDE... smartd terminates itself if it doesn't find any SMART-capable IDE drive. So just turn it off.
Then again, it shouldn't terminate _abnormally_ so that the PID file is left over. Can you please file this in Bugzilla?
Not true. SCSI drives can be monitored with smartd as well:
--------------------- Smartd Begin ------------------------
/dev/sda :
2 Time(s): Temperature changed -2 Celsius to 33 Celsius since last report 2 Time(s): Temperature changed 2 Celsius to 35 Celsius since last report
---------------------- Smartd End -------------------------
By default, smartd is setup to monitor IDE drives. Edit your /etc/smartd.conf file and comment out any reference to IDE drives, and add entries for your SCSI drives. Something like this should work:
/dev/sda -H -m root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx /dev/sdb -H -m root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
You might want to get the latest copy of smartmontools, since the one that ships with fedora is getting old.
