以pci-0000:02:00.0-scsi-0:2:9:0 -> ../../sdj为例进行分析:
0:2:9:0分别表示:
PCI identifier of the host bus adapter (HBA)
channel number on that HBA
the remote SCSI target address(Target Id)
the Logical Unit Number (LUN)
This path-based address is not persistent. It may change any time the system is reconfigured (either by on-line reconfiguration, as described in this manual, or when the system is shutdown, reconfigured, and rebooted). It is even possible for the path identifiers to change when no physical reconfiguration has been done, as a result of timing variations during the discovery process when the system boots, or when a bus is re-scanned.
The operating system provides several non-persistent names to represent these access paths to storage devices. One is the /dev/sd name; another is the major:minor number. A third is a symlink maintained in the /dev/disk/by-path/ directory. This symlink maps from the path identifier to the current /dev/sd name.
