Below is a patch which makes the ceph-rbdnamer script more robust and fixes a problem with the rbd udev rules. On our setup we encountered a symlink which was linked to the wrong rbd: /dev/rbd/mypool/myrbd -> /dev/rbd1 While that link should have gone to /dev/rbd3 (on which a partition /dev/rbd3p1 was present). Now the old udev rule passes %n to the ceph-rbdnamer script, the problem with %n is that %n results in a value of 3 (for rbd3), but in a value of 1 (for rbd3p1), so it seems it can't be depended upon for rbdnaming. In the patch below the ceph-rbdnamer script is made more robust and it now it can be called in various ways: /usr/bin/ceph-rbdnamer /dev/rbd3 /usr/bin/ceph-rbdnamer /dev/rbd3p1 /usr/bin/ceph-rbdnamer rbd3 /usr/bin/ceph-rbdnamer rbd3p1 /usr/bin/ceph-rbdnamer 3 Even with all these different styles of calling the modified script, it should now return the same rbdname. This change "has" to be combined with calling it from udev with %k though. With that fixed, we hit the second problem. We ended up with: /dev/rbd/mypool/myrbd -> /dev/rbd3p1 So the rbdname was symlinked to the partition on the rbd instead of the rbd itself. So what probably went wrong is udev discovering the disk and running ceph-rbdnamer which resolved it to myrbd so the following symlink was created: /dev/rbd/mypool/myrbd -> /dev/rbd3 However partitions would be discovered next and ceph-rbdnamer would be run with rbd3p1 (%k) as parameter, resulting in the name myrbd too, with the previous correct symlink being overwritten with a faulty one: /dev/rbd/mypool/myrbd -> /dev/rbd3p1 The solution to the problem is in differentiating between disks and partitions in udev and handling them slightly differently. So with the patch below partitions now get their own symlinks in the following style (which is fairly consistent with other udev rules): /dev/rbd/mypool/myrbd-part1 -> /dev/rbd3p1 Please let me know any feedback you have on this patch or the approach used.
