InvariantDisks ============== InvariantDisks is a small program maintaining a mapping from invariant labels to the potentially varying /dev/diskXsY entries. It is started like: `InvariantDisks -p $PREFIX` At the moment, three linker modules are available. The media path module creates links in $prefix/by-path based on the reported media path, based on the physical location of the device. Example: * `./by-path/PCI0@0-SATA@1F,2-PRT0@0-PMP@0-@0:0` The UUID module creates links in $prefix/by-id based on the volume and media UUID. Some volumes have both a volume and a media UUID, others only one of the two. This depends on the partitioning scheme and the filesystem. Example: * `./by-id/volume-AAFA3521-C1B4-3154-B16E-143D133FA21A` * `./by-id/media-9722675C-36BB-499D-8609-120D6BDF8609` The Serial number module creates links to whole drives based on the product type and product serial number. * `./by-serial/WDC_WD30EZRX-00MMMB-WD-WCAWZ12345` The Problem and some solutions on Linux are described on http://zfsonlinux.org/faq.html#WhatDevNamesShouldIUseWhenCreatingMyPool License ======= This program is copyrighted by me, because I wrote it.
