Hi, I would like to make a change to the storage target map. Currently hard disks used by dm multipath or dm raid can contain partitions in the target map. I want to remove those partitions entries in from the target map: So currently: "/dev/mapper/isw_cfcdifeiii_test" : $[ "devices" : [ "/dev/sdc", "/dev/sdd" ], "partitions" : [ $[ "detected_fs" : `ext3, "device" : "/dev/mapper/isw_cfcdifeiii_test_part1", "fsid" : 253, ... "/dev/sdc" : $[ "partitions" : [ $[ "detected_fs" : `ext3, "device" : "/dev/sdc1", "fsid" : 253, ... "used_by" : "isw_cfcdifeiii_test", "used_by_device" : "/dev/mapper/isw_cfcdifeiii_test", "used_by_type" : `UB_DMRAID, ... will become: "/dev/mapper/isw_cfcdifeiii_test" : $[ "devices" : [ "/dev/sdc", "/dev/sdd" ], "partitions" : [ $[ "detected_fs" : `ext3, "device" : "/dev/mapper/isw_cfcdifeiii_test_part1", "fsid" : 253, ... "/dev/sdc" : $[ "partitions" : [ // HERE IS THE DIFFERENCE ] ... "used_by" : "isw_cfcdifeiii_test", "used_by_device" : "/dev/mapper/isw_cfcdifeiii_test", "used_by_type" : `UB_DMRAID, The change shouldn't affect any code. Those partitions entries are unreliable and cannot be used anyway. If you see a problem please say so now. The motivation behind this is simple: In the future libstorage can be changed to not even probe partitions on hard disks used by dm multipath or dm raid. That probing has caused bugs in the past.
