Well, 4 paths to LUN is pretty common with enterprise SAN storage (2 x host HBAs to 2 storage controllers, each HBA sees both controllers), so it takes "just" 170 LUNs to exceed two letters namespace ...
I was about to say something similar - we carve out LVs for virtual machines, and hand those out via iSCSI. Exceeding 26*26 = 676 is not that far away.

Top points! for being on-topic, Greg - I almost spilled my beer :-)
TBH, actual device names are rarely used for anything. On the xen host, it's more like this: /dev/mapper/srv002181r - root /dev/mapper/srv002181u - user /dev/mapper/srv002181s - swap It's only with 'lsscsi' that the display becomes really impressive :-) -- Per Jessen, Zürich (2.5°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - your free DNS host, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
