VMware虚拟机(Linux)中,我们的Linux服务器可能拥有多个磁盘(或者叫虚拟磁盘),如下所示,这个服务器的磁盘有硬盘1、硬盘2、…………硬盘10总共10块硬盘。
而Linux系统中,磁盘中对应的设备如下

那么我们如何找出/dev/sdj对应VMware中的哪个磁盘呢? 相信很多同学可能想通过磁盘大小来判断,但是呢,这个通过磁盘大小不好判断或者判断不精准,主要有下面一些因素:
1:两边计算磁盘大小的方式不一样。看到的磁盘大小有点出入。
2:可能存在相同大小的磁盘,此时你怎么判断呢?
那么有没有通过某个标识来判断呢?根据SCSI标准,每个SCSI磁盘都有一个WWID,类似于网卡的MAC地址,而且是独一无二。Linux系统上/dev/disk/by-id目录包含每个SCSI磁盘WWID访问路径。
[root@KerryDB ~]# ll /dev/disk/by-id/

但是当前环境下,VMware虚拟机(Linux)默认情况下没有开启这个选项。
# ll /dev/disk/by-id
ls: /dev/disk/by-id: No such file or directory
# cd /dev/disk
# ls -lrt

而且在VMware vSphere Client连上VMware控制台,你会发现这里没有提供硬盘的WWID信息,即使你在Linux中找到设备的WWID信息,但是在VMware控制台也看不到对应的WWID信息,我们还可以通过计算机的SCSI编号来判断,SCSI 可适用于许多设备(包括随机存取设备,比如磁盘和像磁带这样的顺序存储设备),如下截图所示,磁盘有个显示是通过SCSI控制器管理磁盘的,硬盘9对应的为SCSI(0:11)

如上所示,我们通过上面命令的输出信息就可以判断磁盘9对应Linux下的/dev/sdj这个设备。
