一、Linux磁盘分区UUID的获取方法
1、[san@localhost ~]$ ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/
total 0

VS:

2、通过blkid命令
[san@localhost ~]$ blkid /dev/sdb1
/dev/sdb1: LABEL="SAN " UUID="f535fef8-f392-4c84-8e7a-85915d9179fb " TYPE="ext3 "
[san@localhost ~]$ blkid /dev/sda6
/dev/sda6: LABEL="/" UUID="ae6dcc02-3f7f-47cc-8a6e-e29218b4d345 " TYPE="ext3" SEC_TYPE="ext2 "
二、Linux UUID的作用及意义
原因1:它是真正的唯一标志符
UUID为系统中的存储设备提供唯一的标识字符串,不管这个设备是什么类型的。如果你在系统中添加了新的存储设备如硬盘,很可能会造成一些麻烦,比如说启动的时候因为找不到设备而失败,而使用UUID则不会有这样的问题。
原因2:设备名并非总是不变的
自动分配的设备名称并非总是一致的,它们依赖于启动时内核加载模块的顺序。如果你在插入了USB盘时启动了系统,而下次启动时又把它拔掉了,就有可能导致设备名分配不一致。
使用UUID对于挂载移动设备也非常有好处──例如我有一个24合一的读卡器,它支持各种各样的卡,而使用UUID总可以使同一块卡挂载在同一个地方。
原因3:ubuntu中的许多关键功能现在开始依赖于UUID
例如grub──系统引导程序,现在可以识别UUID,打开你的/boot/grub/menu.lst,你可以看到类似如下的语句:
title Ubuntu hardy (development branch), kernel 2.6.24-16-generic
root (hd2,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-16-generic root=UUID=c73a37c8-ef7f-40e4-b9de-8b2f81038441 ro quiet splash
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-16-generic
quiet
