Hi!

I'd like to uniquely identify USB-disks according to their GTP disk UUID
and assign a corresponding systemd device unit in order to be able to
start/stop services based on them.

However, whenever a USB device is unplugged and replugged again soon
(within a few seconds), there seems to be a small amount of time, where
the old block device node is still there:

Dez 08 21:14:35 apu systemd[1]: Device
sys-block-by\x2duuid-d28e3352\x2d7ce6\x2d4aab\x2d802a\x2d59270088604e.device
appeared twice with different sysfs paths
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/0000:03:00.0/usb4/4-1/4-1:1.0/host5/target5:0:0/5:0:0:0/block/sdc
and
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/0000:03:00.0/usb4/4-1/4-1:1.0/host6/target6:0:0/6:0:0:0/block/sdg

In those cases, the new SYSTEMD_ALIAS device is not created. (The alias
pointing to the old sysfs path is also removed some moments later.)

Is there a way to override this behavior so that the new device alias
will override the old one?

Thanks,
--leo

I am using systemd-219-19.el7_2.13.x86_64.
