so it is referring to the UUID of the filesystem and not necessarily the
device. Some are single partitions, some md devices, and some sit on
top of LVM.
What does :
mdadm --detail /dev/md0 | grep UUID
show?
I think it will give you the UUID of the md device, not the fs on the md device
(which as you have seen is also the UUID of the fs visible on the md components)
That does return a UUID, but it is a slightly different format
mdadm --detail /dev/md0 | grep UUID
UUID : 3531a48d:1180bdf3:bfcd9e76:5b7e5957
versus something like:
6e22c5b0-2874-4826-a871-ed733f8da643
I tried adding it to /etc/fstab as well as just using mount -U <uuid>
and both fail complaining that:
mount -U 3531a48d:1180bdf3:bfcd9e76:5b7e5957 /mnt
mount: no such partition found
I tried replacing the : with - to match the format in /etc/fstab with no
success.
mount -U 3531a48d-1180bdf3-bfcd9e76-5b7e5957 /mnt
mount: no such partition found
I also tried formatting it the same in terms of the - location
mount -U 3531a48d-1180-bdf3-bfcd-9e765b7e5957 /mnt
mount: no such partition found
Is anyone mounting a mirrored /boot using UUID's?
