 Posted: Sat Nov 25, 2017 6:08 pm Post subject: In which SATA port my hard drive is connected (eudev)? |
 |
|
I'd need a simple way to determine which sata port a hard drive is using. This is because I have 6 2.5" hard drive hotswap slots. I tend to swap out the drives to new ones when the prices drop. When I remove a drive (or when one fails) I need to be able to deternime the SATA port assosciated with the drive so that I don't eject wrong drive. I had this done by systemd's udev earlier (see here for the udev rule), but eudev doesn't export PATH_ID from which I was able to determine the port. My current setup is quite simple in the way that all the SATA connectors are handled by the same SATA chip. So I don't need to create several rules for different busses.
The sysfs device path isn't realiable, I've found. For example /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:11.0/ata2/ does not always point to second SATA port.
Any tips?

| /dev/disk/by-path or /dev/disk/by-id should work... |

The /dev/disk/by-id has links to disks (and partitions) based on the information gathered from the disk itself, so there's nothing I can utilize.
/dev/disk/by-path on the other hand could be the answer, but for some reason there are only usb entries from my USB card reader and USB DVD drive: | shellcmd: ls -lF /dev/disk/by-path/ : | total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Nov 25 19:40 pci-0000:00:13.2-usb-0:2.3:1.0-scsi-0:0:0:0 -> ../../sr0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Nov 26 15:11 pci-0000:00:16.2-usb-0:2:1.0-scsi-0:0:0:0 -> ../../sdg
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Nov 25 19:40 pci-0000:00:16.2-usb-0:2:1.0-scsi-0:0:0:1 -> ../../sdh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Nov 25 19:40 pci-0000:00:16.2-usb-0:2:1.0-scsi-0:0:0:2 -> ../../sdi
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Nov 25 19:40 pci-0000:00:16.2-usb-0:2:1.0-scsi-0:0:0:3 -> ../../sdj |
So none of my actual hard drives have symlinks there.
Earlier udev rule worked flawlessly. It (somewhat) simply created links based on which port the hard drive was attached.

You don't have a problem with ID_PATH and eudev, you have a problem elsewhere:
- first because you have no symlink to your other drives, while you should
- second, because ID_PATH is handle.

Thanks for the reply.
I seem to have my SATA in ATA mode for some reason...

I must have flipped some setting accidentaly. Now to wonder how to get it back...
