------- Comment From mauri...@br.ibm.com 2015-03-11 12:50 EDT------- FYI.. Some distros change the multipath user_friendly_names wholedisks to be mpath[a-z]+ rather than mpath[0-9]+.
This seems intentional :) and takes away the disk-partition separator. [...] the name of a multipath device is of the form mpathn. For the [...] release, n is an alphabetic character, so that the name of a multipath device might be // mpatha or mpathb. // In previous releases, n was an integer. It's a distro design decision. It's an interesting conversation, but requires time, since it introduces some level of disruption on userspace. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1427859 Title: ISST-SAN:Need a common format for partition listing using kpartx,fdisk.distrib and ls -l To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1427859/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
