Well, I don't even have '/etc/default/smartmontools', it appears to be
an addition of your distribution. On a previous email, Christian Franke
said (9 Dec 2016 07:44:44 +0100, Re: '#start_smartd=3Dyes' in
/etc/default/smartmontools is ignored):

=ABPlease note that /etc/default/smartmontools and its evaluation in the
/etc/init.d/smartmontools is specific to the Ubuntu (and Debian)
packages. It is not part of upstream smartmontools code.=BB

=ABThe settings in this file may no longer be effective for distributions=

using systemd.=BB


Thus I don't know what does settings do, my documentation does not apply
to your setup.

If you trigger a test I expect the disk to spin up immediately.
