NUMBER, BUS="scsi", ID=C:B:T:L, NAME="c0b0t6l0" The controller number is not unique for a particular HBA. Hence persistency is not retained. To overcome this problem for iSCSI devices, I would like to introduce another field in the following rule for udev. NUMBER, BUS="scsi", id=C:B:T:L, device_type="iscsi", NAME="iscsi-b0t6l0" With this approach the naming for iSCSI devices will be persistent regardless of controller id. Please let me know your comments. thanks, surekha ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: ApacheCon 2003, 16-19 November in Las Vegas.
