Feature Request: Change Path of Devices

Open benengele opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Problem: It's not possible to recover plots if device path has changed, e.g. because:

  • Connection changed resulting in change of /dev/sdX
  • Failing disk has been cloned to a new disk resulting in change of /dev/disk/by-id/...
  • Disk has been added using /dev/sdX path accidentally

Suggested solution: Add device will check UUIDs of files existing in geometry and change the path of the device instead of only supporting re-formatting the disk.

Would also address the problem mentioned in last comment of #17
