CIM_DiskDrive should be used only for physical disks, like ATA or SCSI. HW provider shows CIM_DiskDrive also from iSCSI drives, which are purely virtual. Simple lsblk won't help here. Current blivet uses something like this: # info is dictionary with udev attributes path_components = info["ID_PATH"].split("-") if info["ID_BUS"] == "scsi" and path_components[0] == "ip" and path_components[2] == "iscsi": # the device is iscsi There is similar heuristics for FCoE.
lsblk provides TRAN attribute - device transport type; it looks like it could be used to detect iscsi, what do you think? $ lsblk -dPpo NAME,TYPE,MODEL,TRAN NAME="/dev/sda" TYPE="disk" MODEL="HGST HTS725050A7" TRAN="sata" NAME="/dev/sdb" TYPE="disk" MODEL="S1 Mini " TRAN="usb" NAME="/dev/sdc" TYPE="disk" MODEL="VIRTUAL-DISK " TRAN="iscsi" NAME="/dev/sr0" TYPE="rom" MODEL="DVD-RW DS8A8SH " TRAN="sata"
(In reply to Peter Schiffer from comment #1) > NAME="/dev/sdc" TYPE="disk" MODEL="VIRTUAL-DISK " TRAN="iscsi" That looks promising.
