The admin can use udevinfo to query this information, but is there any way to MODIFY it? If not, how hard would adding a tool be that can arbitrarily modify values in the udevdb? I ask because I am trying to fix the system to perform autodetection and mounting on synthetic devices from device-mapper and md, but they need to not mess with certain devices, such as snapshot devices, and other internal devices. I was hoping to do this using a udevdb attribute that can be set on devices that are meant for export, and only automount devices marked as such. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
