I am testing hard disks with SmartMonTools under Ubuntu 20.04.
Tests for some hard disks are not working - they disappear without
leaving any warnings or errors.
Hard drive status before the test (note the time Sun Mar 13 16:25:12
2022 UTC):

How can I find out why those tests get cancelled - any logs
available???
