Most standard Linux utilities that refer to block devices, allow you to specify by uuid as well (mount, cryptsetup are two examples).
The documentation for qvm-block is sparse, but probably because it's a striaght-forward utility. There's no support in qvm-block to assign a device to a VM by UUID, is there? Could be handy for some of the automation I'd like to put in place on firing up the system. One can always lsblk|grep|sed|cut|whatever in a sh script, and then use the resulting block device for qvm-block, but it'd be a lot cleaner and less error-prone if one could say "qvm-block -a Florp UUID=kasdjflaksjdfaklsdf" or "qvm-block -a FLorp --uid asdfkasjdlfkajsd" Just a suggestion. (And for any other qvm-* that refer to block devices, perhaps.) Cheers. JJ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
