Description Flags
add /dev/changer rule to udev none

Description Avi Kivity 2006-02-17 18:25:24 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.5; Linux; X11; i686) KHTML/3.5.0 (like Gecko)

Description of problem:
udev now creates media changer /dev nodes as /dev/sg*. finding the changer 
among the disks, tapes, and other stuff is no fun. 
 
attached patch creates media changer nodes as /dev/changer*. /dev/changer is 
the mtx default, so one media changer will work out of the box. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
udev-084-1.1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. mtx inquiry  
    

Actual Results:  cannot open SCSI device '/dev/changer' - No such file or directory 
 

Expected Results:  Product Type: Medium Changer 
Vendor ID: 'HP      ' 
Product ID: 'DAT72X6         ' 
Revision: 'B409' 
Attached Changer: No

add /dev/changer rule to udev

Please add this to RHEL4 as well. For info, mtx is one of the tools that look
for /dev/changer by default. Could GROUP="disk" be added to the rule as well?
Otherwise MODE="0660" is not so useful.



Comment 3 Charles Lopes 2006-03-01 10:21:16 UTC
Sorry I forgot to mention that FC3 and RHEL4 would only need:

KERNEL="sg[0-9]*", BUS="scsi", SYSFS{type}="8", SYMLINK="changer%e"

while FC4 and FC5 would need:

KERNEL="sg[0-9]*", BUS="scsi", SYSFS{type}="8", SYMLINK="changer%e",
GROUP="disk", MODE="0660"
