apt-file search smartctl
shows this is in package smartmontools (in Jessie, I assume same in

Also it is installed in /usr/sbin which a non-root user doesn't usually
have on their path, which implies it may have to be executed as root.
The # in the sample command line also implies that, but just in case it
wasn't obvious...
