Disabled service still starts at boot

Was trying to chase down a possible disk issue and as part of this I disabled the smartd service. Or at least I thought I did.

I set the service disabled in the configuration db:

[root@NethServer ~]# config show smartd
smartd=service
    status=disabled
[root@NethServer ~]#

But following a boot of the server, smartd was started. From the services page:

[root@NethServer ~]# ps -ef | grep smartd
root      4313     1  0 13:41 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/smartd -q never
root     14828  5140  0 18:42 pts/1    00:00:00 grep smartd
[root@NethServer ~]#

This is on 6.8.

EDIT: Is this because I didn’t run a “signal-event runlevel-adjust”.

Cheers.
