How to rename MD device (e.g. md3 -> md2)?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello list!

Does anybody know what would be the fastest way to rename MD device
(without recreating/resyncing)? I have md0, md1 and md3 in system (don't
ask :)), and obviously it would look slightly nicer if that md3 was
called md2 instead, like I have on other machines (with all the same
setup, except this small difference). Is it possible?

Thanks for any reply (and please Cc:, I'm not subscribed).

I'll also use this opportunity to thank everybody involved in the
development of RAID subsystem in Linux, cause it's a real data
saver. You saved my ass too many times to even count...

Keep up the good work, guys!
