[Bug 1558264] Re: Usability Partitioner menu does not display the real 4 digit device number
lvm tooling uses kernel device names, until upstream supports alternative (display) mappings, this is non-trivial to fix and/or will be buggy. This request is equivalent of asking $ vgs to magically change display names. Closing this bug report, until there is upstream support in lvm for by-path device names by default. ** Changed in: debian-installer (Ubuntu) Assignee: Dimitri John Ledkov (xnox) => (unassigned) ** Changed in: debian-installer (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Opinion ** Changed in: ubuntu-z-systems Status: Confirmed => Opinion -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1558264 Title: Usability Partitioner menu does not display the real 4 digit device number To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-z-systems/+bug/1558264/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1558264] Re: Usability Partitioner menu does not display the real 4 digit device number
@hws This is not a bug per-se, as LVM itself uses kernel drive names in the metadata, and the output shown in the LVM partitioner menu is the same as shown by LVM2 utils, $ sudo pvs Please remove any target for this issue (e.g. targetmilestone-inin--), because there is no immediate way to resolve this. If you wish to improve LVM2 tooling, please contact LVM2 upstream to make all utilities (vgs, pvs, vgchange, etc.) to use alternative symlink names, instead of real kernel device names. I do not believe it makes any sense for installer code to post-process output of $ sudo pvs, trying to mangle it and reconcile it with ids. Especially since installed systems will not have any tooling (e.g. pvs) that will also show output with ids. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1558264 Title: Usability Partitioner menu does not display the real 4 digit device number To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-z-systems/+bug/1558264/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1558264] Re: Usability Partitioner menu does not display the real 4 digit device number
Indeed that would be nice, however currently d-i / partman operate entirely in linux device names. However the lvm summary output is ultimately driven by what `pvs` outputs from lvm tooling. Looking into pvdisplay(8) manpage it seems there is no way for that to resolve and/or output more descriptive (udev symlinked) names for devices. Also given that d-i typically uses partitions as physical volumes one would end up with: /dev/disk/by-path/ccw-0.0.0200-part1 as a label. Not sure if that's better or worse than /dev/dasda1 for example. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1558264 Title: Usability Partitioner menu does not display the real 4 digit device number To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1558264/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
