Subject: getting rid of chassis_id
Date: Thu, 08 Sep 2005 11:00:33 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050908110033.GA27984@vrfy.org> (raw)
Does anybody have ever used extras/chassis_id? It calls scsi_id, then
looks up 3 numbers in a text file. These 3 numbers are returned
to udev and can be used to form some kind of "chassis mapping" for a
disk.
A horrible hack, pretty useless, unmaintained and broken. I really
don't think that it is ever was useful for anything. A task like this
is efficiently done with udev rules instead of maintaining an
external mapping in a file hardcoded to /usr/local/bin/provision.tbl.
If nobody wants to fix it, it will only be available in the older
releases. :)
Thanks,
Kay
