.SH NAME
|
|
vdev_id.conf \- Configuration file for vdev_id
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.I vdev_id.conf
|
|
is the configuration file for
|
|
.BR vdev_id (8).
|
|
It controls the default behavior of
|
|
.BR vdev_id (8)
|
|
while it is mapping a disk device name to an alias.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The
|
|
.I vdev_id.conf
|
|
file uses a simple format consisting of a keyword followed by one or
|
|
more values on a single line. Any line not beginning with a recognized
|
|
keyword is ignored. Comments may optionally begin with a hash
|
|
character.
|
|
|
|
The following keywords and values are used.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fIalias\fR <name> <devlink>
|
|
Maps a device link in the /dev directory hierarchy to a new device
|
|
name. The udev rule defining the device link must have run prior to
|
|
.BR vdev_id (8).
|
|
A defined alias takes precedence over a topology-derived name, but the
|
|
two naming methods can otherwise coexist. For example, one might name
|
|
drives in a JBOD with the sas_direct topology while naming an internal
|
|
L2ARC device with an alias.
|
|
|
|
\fIname\fR - the name of the link to the device that will by created in
|
|
/dev/disk/by-vdev.
|
|
|
|
\fIdevlink\fR - the name of the device link that has already been
|
|
defined by udev. This may be an absolute path or the base filename.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fIchannel\fR [pci_slot] <port> <name>
|
|
Maps a physical path to a channel name (typically representing a single
|
|
disk enclosure).
|
|
|
|
\fIpci_slot\fR - specifies the PCI SLOT of the HBA
|
|
hosting the disk enclosure being mapped, as found in the output of
|
|
.BR lspci (8).
|
|
This argument is not used in sas_switch mode.
|
|
|
|
\fIport\fR - specifies the numeric identifier of the HBA or SAS switch port
|
|
connected to the disk enclosure being mapped.
|
|
|
|
\fIname\fR - specifies the name of the channel.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fIslot\fR <old> <new> [channel]
|
|
Maps a disk slot number as reported by the operating system to an
|
|
alternative slot number. If the \fIchannel\fR parameter is specified
|
|
then the mapping is only applied to slots in the named channel,
|
|
otherwise the mapping is applied to all channels. The first-specified
|
|
\fIslot\fR rule that can match a slot takes precedence. Therefore a
|
|
channel-specific mapping for a given slot should generally appear before
|
|
a generic mapping for the same slot. In this way a custom mapping may
|
|
be applied to a particular channel and a default mapping applied to the
|
|
others.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fImultipath\fR <yes|no>
|
|
Specifies whether
|
|
.BR vdev_id (8)
|
|
will handle only dm-multipath devices. If set to "yes" then
|
|
.BR vdev_id (8)
|
|
will examine the first running component disk of a dm-multipath
|
|
device as listed by the
|
|
.BR multipath (8)
|
|
command to determine the physical path.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fItopology\fR <sas_direct|sas_switch>
|
|
Identifies a physical topology that governs how physical paths are
|
|
mapped to channels.
|
|
|
|
\fIsas_direct\fR - in this mode a channel is uniquely identified by
|
|
a PCI slot and a HBA port number
|
|
|
|
\fIsas_switch\fR - in this mode a channel is uniquely identified by
|
|
a SAS switch port number
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fIphys_per_port\fR <num>
|
|
Specifies the number of PHY devices associated with a SAS HBA port or SAS
|
|
switch port.
|
|
.BR vdev_id (8)
|
|
internally uses this value to determine which HBA or switch port a
|
|
device is connected to. The default is 4.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fIslot\fR <bay|phy|port|id|lun>
|
|
Specifies from which element of a SAS identifier the slot number is
|
|
taken. The default is bay.
|
|
|
|
\fIbay\fR - read the slot number from the bay identifier.
|
|
|
|
\fIphy\fR - read the slot number from the phy identifier.
|
|
|
|
\fIport\fR - use the SAS port as the slot number.
|
|
|
|
\fIid\fR - use the scsi id as the slot number.
|
|
|
|
\fIlun\fR - use the scsi lun as the slot number.
|
|
