MegaCli: Get the /dev/sd* device name for a logical drive

Solution 1:

You should be able to compare the disk serial number from -pdlist with the output from lshw.

# MegaCLI -pdlist -a0 | grep "Inquiry Data:"
Inquiry Data:       XXXXXXXXXXXXHitachi YYYYYYYY                 ZZZZZZ
...

Then search the output of lshw for the serial number. The device name will be in the logical name field.

I can't verify this because all of my disks are in a volume.

Identifying Logical Drives

Compare the Target Id from MegaCLI with the scsi bus target for the device. In lshw it is bus info.

# MegaCli -ldinfo -Lall -aall

I just added some support to my fork of megaclisas-status for matching the logical drive to an OS Native device. Here's an example output:

Solution 3:

For anyone stumbling on this question and using storcli (successor of MegaCLI), you can map a virtual drive to the disk seen by the operating system with the following:

$ /opt/MegaRAID/storcli/storcli64 /c0/v0 show all | grep NAA
SCSI NAA Id = 6001676001750006201086de0bd7f605
$ ls -al /dev/disk/by-id/ | grep wwn-0x6001676001750006201086de0bd7f605
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   9 Jan 23 10:55 wwn-0x6001676001750006201086de0bd7f605 -> ../../sdk

Tested with storcli-1.21.06 download at: https://docs.broadcom.com/docs/1.21.06_StorCLI

Solution 4:

Instead of using lshw, I think you can just use /dev/disk/by-path to get the relationship between the scsi target id and the logical device name(sdX).

targetId=0;dev=`ls -l /dev/disk/by-path/ | grep -E "scsi-[0-9]:[0-9]:${targetId}:[0-9] " | awk '{print($11)}'`; echo ${dev##*\/}

  deviceId=$1
  ldPdInfo=`$MegaCommand -LdPdInfo -aALL | grep -E 'Virtual Drive|Device Id'`
  if [ $ldPdInfo ]; then
    targetId=`echo $ldPdInfo | awk '{a[NR]=$0} END {while (NR) print a[NR--]}' | awk "/Device Id: ${deviceId}$/,/Virtual Drive/" | grep -Eo 'Target Id: [0-9]' | grep -Eo '[0-9]'`
    dev=`ls -l /dev/disk/by-path/ | grep -E "scsi-[0-9]:[0-9]:${targetId}:[0-9] " | awk '{print($11)}'`
  else
    wwn=`$MegaCommand -PdList -aALL | awk "/Device Id: ${deviceId}$/,/WWN/" | grep "WWN" | awk '{print($2)}'`
    # wwn=`echo "obase=16;ibase=16; $wwn-1" | bc`
    dev=`ls -l /dev/disk/by-id/ | grep -i -E "wwn-0x${wwn:0:-1}[0-9a-z] " | awk '{print($11)}'`
  fi
  devName=${dev##*\/}
  echo $devName

Solution 5:

I have been dealing with this across a number of new servers recently and I've come up with a solution! We are not using RAID on the "RAID" card, just using the SAS drives as JBOD. The /dev/disk/by-id mappings are off by one (or a few) from the SAS Address. This seems bizarre, but it works across dozens of servers I've tested it on. I have also received independent confirmation that this works for others.

megamap is a short Perl script that implements the discovery above. It produces a map of Linux drive sd* to MegaRaid drive ID and also displays the WWN from Linux. After using this in production for a while I also added megablink and megaunblink for controlling the "come fix me" blinking LED. That feature has saved me from pulling the wrong drive out of the server. Please submit bug reports on github.
