hi all, Can anyone give me a clue where the naming of disk devices is defined? For network interfaces you have: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules Is there an equivalent for sata-drives? On my file server, i had five drives, the original sda (where i boot from and contained the 11.3) and four others in softread-10. Unfortunately, two weeks ago, my sda "expired", so i bought a new one. As a precaution i disconnected the all data-drives during the installation of 12.2. After completion, i powered down the machine, connected the data drives, powered up and after a "vgchange -ay" the secondary volumegroup was detected and i could manually mount all LV's again, and i started recovering. Alas, after last nights reboot, the disks holding the OS now appears as "SDE" instead of "SDA", and my secondary volume-group remains invisible. I had the impression that suse was doing the mount by UUID by default. but obviously i'm mistaken? For any suggestions i'm more than welcome: As i was still recovering from previous "event", last changes were not on backup ;-( Hans -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
