I just got an external USB drive that I want to use for disk-based backups. It is important that this drive be useable on different FreeBSD servers that we have.
I got it working on a test server ok, but I noticed that the sysinstall utility labeled the device as: /dev/da0s1d Since the test server only has an IDE drive, that's fine, but this external USB drive needs to be able to work on productions servers that already have SCSI and SAS devices, one of which already uses that label for its active "/usr" partition. Is there an easy way to force the device to work as something like: /dev/da1s1d on all of the servers, including ones that do not already have a SCSI disk subsystem and existing /dev/da0 devices?
