Udev rule question.

Hello,
  I have written a udev rule to change the name of the external hard disk to /dev/external.
SUBSYSTEM=="block", SUBSYSTEMS=="scsi", ATTRS{model}=="ST3120827AS", NAME="external"
The code is like the above. That works also. But the problem is that. without that rule my device creates 2 device nodes.
1. sdb for the drive
2. sdb1 for the one partition in it.
  The mount command without the rule will show that the device sdb1 is mounted on /media. But after adding that rule only one device node is created at /dev/external and there is no second device like I expected ( ie /dev/external1 ). Why it is like that ? Any idea ?
  Is there anything wrong in my udev rule ?

try this:
SUBSYSTEM=="block", SUBSYSTEMS=="scsi", ATTRS{model}=="ST3120827AS", KERNEL=="sd*", SYMLINK+="external%n"

  • Udev rules question

    I have a pl2303 converter which appears as /dev/ttyUSB0, owned by root,uucp. I do not want to run minicom as root nor do I want to add myself to the uucp group, as either of these approaches lend themselves to potential issues to the system. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I would need this udev rule:
    KERNEL=="ttyUSB[0-9]", MODE="0666"
    I have not written any custom rules before, and therefore my /etc/udev/rules.d dir only contains two 75-*.rules.optional files. Obviously I should create a new *.rules file with this rule, but I'm concerned that a custom rules file will inhibit the implicit default rules in /lib/udev/rules.d and I'm unsure which integer to precede the custom rules file (greater than the default?).

    You generally want your rules file to be first, so most people tend to do it at 10-....
    If you build your rule correctly, it should not affect the other rules - you should uniquely identify the device and make sure it doesn't accidentally pick up other devices. You should be able to find an attribute (eg vendor and/or model) that helps.
    This is useful, though a little out of date (the command to get the device information is wrong now, and some fields have changed).

    See also man udev and man udevadm  to update the information in there.

  • My /etc/udev/rules.d is empty? [SOLVED]

    The other week i installed a virtal inviroment in QEMU, i read a little bit about writing udev-rules, in order to work with USB. but for some reason.. the folder in mentioned in the topic happends to be empty.. and it just strikes me, because when gogling the problem it seems that the people it happend to before, it also ment that the system didnt work, or worked really bad, but my system works fine.. Now, as i allready mentioned, i bumped in to this problem the other week. i have been searching for some obvious noskillmistake, but.. i gave up and just turned to you guys instead.

    That folder is empty for me too, because I haven't put anything there.  Have you created files there that disappeared?  If not, what's the issue?  You say everything is working ... so what's the question?

  • [solved] /etc/udev/rules.d/10-network.rules ignored

    Hi.
    I have 4 nics (eth0, eth1, eth2, eth3) mapped to MAC addresses in  /etc/udev/rules.d/10-network.rules.
    Some months ago, I had to symlink /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-name-slot.rules to /dev/null in order to use these static names.
    Now it doesn't work anymore (again and again and again) after a full update (kernel and I assume systemd).  The "nic-names" are completely wrong.  You call this "predictable". I call this "unpredictable". The only thing which is predictable is that after a kernel update, the network will stop working. It has been that way for months and months ... fortunately I don't update other machines anymore.
    Was this non sense really necessary?
    Anyway, if you could tell me what to do now to get my network rules applied again, I would really appreciate.
    Right now all ethX/MAC are wrong and none of them gets an IP (had to set an IP manually to post here).
    * I know what "predictable Network Interface Names" is about. I don't want this bullshit. It's much worse as it used to be. Keep it simple, folks!

    But the rules were applied in this case!
    It solved the problem described originally.  I think I was hit by the race condition after upgrating to kernel 3.8.4-1. This was actually my first 3.8 kernel.
    With kernel 3.7, the rules were working even if the devices were named eth0, eth1, etc.
    Those names don't work anymore, at least in my case.

  • Using disk label on udev rules?

    Hello,
    Until just a few hours ago, when I plugged my external hard drive in I had to run a script to mount it with sudo, as I couldn't get it automounted. Then I saw a workaround in some thread over here, using the udev rules proposed at the bottom of the Udev wiki article.
    After a reboot, and after some hours I didn't remember I had created that rule, so I went to konsole and run my script, which returned "Disc not found". That's because it checks there is that device under /dev/disk/by-label/. As I checked afterwards, the disk was automounted on some directory under /media, but it there were no symlinks to it nor to my pendrive under /dev/disk. This is a problem as my script did something like "mount /dev/disk/by-label/$LABEL /mnt/$LABEL", and Amarok's collection is under there, so if I change the collection directory every time I reboot (or every time I plug the disk) it might be mounted on a different directory (current one is /media/usbhd-sdb1), depending on the order I plug the usb storage devices, or even random if more than one is plugged on boot (not sure about this).
    I suppose this is because when I plug the disk (or pendrive) udev applies the first rule it finds, so I think a possible workaround for my problem is to change the mount directory on the udev rule. And here is where my question comes: I see NAME="%k" and then %k used as the device name under /dev (in this case sdb1). Could I use some variable to keep the label of the disk and then mount it on /mnt/$LABEL, for example? I think this way I couldn't automount any device without label, but every pendrive I've seen is labeled by default so that wouldn't be a problem.
    Thank you for reading that bible, and thank you again if you answer
    Bye!

    I think what you were looking for may have been $env{ID_FS_LABEL}.  I've got the following as my udev rules for getting automatically mounted drives with the mountpoint set to the partition label instead of just a number.  Not particularly robust when there are two partitions with the same label, but I haven't gotten around to writing a fix for it yet.  If it works for you, maybe we should put it on the wiki.

    This seemed to be working very well unitl I tried to boot this morning and the boot process stopped at "processing UDev events" with the following message:
    iTCO_wdt: Unexpected close, not stopping watchdog!
    It pauses at this point for 10-15 seconds and then reboots.
    Having searched a bit, I found the following similar post on the forums:  http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=459375
    Which suggests that the problem might lie with this line:
    ACTION=="add", IMPORT{program}="/sbin/blkid -o udev -p %N"
    I have renamed the file so that it no longer has the udev .rules extension and now the system boots fine.  Does anyone have any suggestions as to why the above rules might be causing this behaviour and how I might go about fixing it?
    Thanks

    Hey falconindy
    That was the final kick up the logical a$$ that I needed to get some kind of grip on udev rules.  I now have a fully functional rule that applies only to /dev/sdxy and not to everything else as well, so no more boot trauma, THANK YOU.
    I will mark this thread as solved and post my new rule for the benefit of anyone who might read this.

  • [SOLVED] udev rule no longer working

    I have a udev rule set up to automatically mount an ext4 filesystem when I plug a certain thumb drive in.  It was working fine until yesterday (probably due to updates).  Here is the rule, in file /etc/udev/rules.d/99-gfk.rules:
    KERNEL=="sd?2", SUBSYSTEM=="block", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0930", ATTRS{idProduct}=="6545", ATTRS{serial}=="1C6F654E4041ED601910053F", SYMLINK+="gfshare"
    ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd?2", SUBSYSTEM=="block", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0930", ATTRS{idProduct}=="6545", ATTRS{serial}=="1C6F654E4041ED601910053F", RUN+="/bin/mkdir /media/gfshare"
    ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd?2", SUBSYSTEM=="block", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0930", ATTRS{idProduct}=="6545", ATTRS{serial}=="1C6F654E4041ED601910053F", RUN+="/bin/mount -t ext4 -o ro,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime /dev/gfshare /media/gfshare"
    The symlink and the mkdir command are both working fine, but the mount command is not being run for some reason.  If I manually run the mount command it works fine.  Some possibly helpful output:
    # pacman -Qo $(which udevadm)
    /usr/bin/udevadm is owned by systemd 212-1

    I see.  That is somewhat aggravating but I will find another way to achieve what I wanted I suppose.
    Thank you.  Should I mark this is solved or unsolvable or something?  Sorry, I'm new to posting on these forums.
    Edit:  I was able to achieve what I wanted with udevil as recommended by the wiki.

  • Configuring udev rules for Oracle 10g R2 Rac on OEL 5.5 U4 with Qnap

    1.) For some reason I cannot get the mappings to work correctly, I have rebooted the server and tried a number of different changes in the rules script. But for the life of me I cannot get it work.
    I noticed when I rebooted the server that it failed to execute the iscsidev. When I manually run the shell script with a parameter it produces output
    Can anyone help me to get this up and running?
    2.) My QNAP Nas doesnt seem to publish iSCSI targets to only one NIC. I think this is down to the firmware/feature not being available. When I discover targets I get the following

    It shows the same targets on both NIC's, I only need them on the private ip 192.168.2.196

    Hi,
    I'm facing the same issue.. If your issue is fixed..could you please let me know?
    I'm trying to configure 11g RAC with OPenfiler and got stuck here.

  • [SOLVED]Udevd fails to recognize rules in /lib/udev/rules.d

    These errors have appeared since the 24th of October (the last marked update day for the udev package).  I'm also slightly concerned about the first 4 lines, where udevd "starts" version 173 and then version 174.  According to pacman -Q udev, only version 174 is installed.
    Upon investigating the folder, I find that all the "missing" files are present:

    Can anyone confirm this?  If I get confirmation that this is indeed present for other users (and a bug, not a "feature"), I'll open a bug report for the udev package.
    Also, semi-related, in the post-install message from the udev package they refer you to the folder /etc/udev.d/rules, however, that directory structure doesn't exist on my system, and the old /etc/udev/rules.d is still present.
    I'd appreciate any information or input.  If any further information is required, I'll gladly supply it.

  • Udev rules file as an alternative to ASMLib

    Grid Version: 11.2.0.3
    OS: Oracle Enterprise Linux 6.3
    I always wanted to avoid ASMLib. Now we are exploring the use of udev rules file to maintain
    1. Ownership of shared LUNs
    2. Permissions of shared LUNs.
    But, as the below book suggests, udev only provides a way to maintain ownership and permission of LUNs (/dev entries)
    How can I make sure that the device names, say /dev/xvda remains same across node reboots ? We have had Linux machines booting up with different /dev names in the past .
    http://books.google.com.my/books?id=gbp5AAAAQBAJ&pg=PA144&lpg=PA144&dq=%22ASMLib+that+provides+an+alternative%22&source=bl&ots=6dcIeRfcU9&sig=V-xcAihZiS69LusLTBgEQpTJTOI&hl=en&sa=X&ei=U5ZNUofIBcHZrQeD7YGoCQ&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=%22ASMLib%20that%20provides%20an%20alternative%22&f=false

    I set ownership of LUNs via the udev multipath  rules file as described in Re: Can I use udev rules file for 11.2.0.3 RAC on Oracle Enterprise Linux 6 ?
    I use multipath configuration to configure the LUNs as described in Re: Install Oracle 11gr2 2Node RAC on ASM

  • Are /etc/udev/rules.d/86-hpmud* files obsolete?

    For a while now, I keep getting the following errors during boot:
    Sat Jan 21 14:25:13 2012: udevd[148]: unknown key 'SYSFS{idVendor}' in /etc/udev/rules.d/86-hpmud-hp_laserjet_professional_p1102w.rules:9
    Sat Jan 21 14:25:13 2012: udevd[148]: invalid rule '/etc/udev/rules.d/86-hpmud-hp_laserjet_professional_p1102w.rules:9'
    ... (repeat for every 86-hpmud-* file in that folder)
    I found an (ancient) bug report from 2009 with the subject "hplip: obsolete udev rules files are not removed on upgrades", so I assume they're obsolete, but I've only recently starting seeing this problem, which wouldn't jive with a 3-year old issue.
    Can I safely delete these files, assuming that their contents has been replaced with entries in the /lib/udev/rules.d tree? I am not that well-versed in udev, unfortunately....

    OK - I backed them up and moved them out of /etc/udev/rules.d.
    Confirming nothing broke is a bit of a problem right now. Printing is hit & miss from my laptop to my wireless HP P1102w printer at the best of times. I haven't figured out what the real issue is there, but since printing to other HPs works fine, I'll probably have to blame the printer or HPLIP. I wish HP would simplify their software and made simple drivers. I just need to print, I don't need all that hp-toolbox junk. I'll confirm this when I have a chance to print to a different HP printer.

  • [Solved] Auto-open a file manager after mounting with udev rules

    Hellooooo,
    I followed the udev Wiki for auto mounting USBs and it now works great.
    The only problem is: how can I automatically open a file manager of the mounted directory? I tried putting this at the end of the "ACTION=="add"," section in "/etc/udev/rules.d/11-media-by-label-auto-mount.rules" but for some reason nothing happens:
    , RUN+="/usr/bin/dolphin /media/%E{dir_name}"
    Even if I just try to open dolphin with the "ACTION=="add"," section nothing happens either way.
    So what am I doing wrong?

    In that case, the best choice in my opinion is to use Automounting UDisks Wrappers :
    devmon is a script developed by IgnorantGuru. He left Arch Linux, but the package in AUR is still there and is the last version. For a future new release, it should be available at his blog site. The script is distro independent.
    My udisksvm script, in its default state, doesn't launch a file manager after automounting, but it is not a big thing to let the automounting be done and then manually open a file manager (a new entry in the traydevice right-click menu can also be added for that).
    If you can do without automounting, there is also the bashmount script from jnguyen.
    All these scripts don't require writing any udev rules, they use udisks instead.
    I hope you could find something you like and which will suit your wishes.

  • Writing udev rules [SOLVED]

    Hi guys.
    I'm on a mission to run win7 on QEMU, and I also want to be able to use my USB-ports. Now, archwiki tells me to do this:
    $ qemu-system-i386 -usbdevice host:vendor_id:product_id disk_image
    You can find vendor_id and product_id of your device with lsusb command.
    Note: If you encounter permission errors when running QEMU, see Udev#Writing udev rules for information on how to set permissions of the device.
    I then made a file called 10-adm.rules both in, /etc/udev/rules.d and /usr/lib/udev/rules.d
    In it I wrote:
    KERNEL=="sdc[0-9]*",  GROUP="storage"
    My user with wich i lauch QEMU is in the group storage, and my usb always turns out as sdc*.
    But it still gives me the permission erros.

    now I renamed the files to 99 instead of 10, and I even overkilled it with the GROUP:= instead of GROUP=
    tried:
    udevadm control --reload-rules
    udevadm trigger
    But it still doesnt work

  • [SOLVED] udev rules: cannot run command

    I want to run a scipt everytime I plug in my external harddrive. I read the documentation and create a file called /etc/udev/rules.d/extern_hd.rules:
    SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", SYSFS{serial}=="33504D315647585A", SYMLINK+="ExternHD", RUN+="/root/scripts/test.sh"
    The symlink "ExternHD" gets created. The permissions of test.sh are rwxr-xr-x root root, but it never gets executed. What am I doing wrong?
