    How To Set Device Name Using UDEV on Oracle Linux 7.X

    edited Jun 30, 2022 1:56PM in Linux

    Custom disk names can be used to make it easier to identify specific storage and how it is being used, such as for ASM storage. A udev rule needs to be created to set a custom name for a disk.

    In order to create custom name (/dev/DISKNAME) for /dev/sdb set udev rules as below:

    1. Find UUID of device

    # /usr/lib/udev/scsi_id -g -u /dev/sdb

    1IET_00020002

    Save this UUID, as this ID will be used later.

    2. Create new udev rule

    Create new udev rule file in appropriate location as below:

    # vi /etc/udev/rules.d/99-my-asmdevices.rules
