Sample run of the stressant program with a regular user. Note the errors that are correctly flagged by stressant as the user cannot open the disk to run hdparm or smartctl tests. Missing from the screencast are the --email and --logfile options that allow sending reports over email or saving them to a logfile.

Stressant is here ran with shorter timeouts for the needs of a short demonstration, but the default settings (100M files and 10m CPU run) should put some more stress on the system. Obviously, it is recommended to tweak those settings according to your needs and requirements…
