I observed the following message during Ubuntu installation. What is the meaning of SCSI3 (0,0,0) in Partition disks during Ubuntu installation?



I assume SCSI3 is the Small Computer System Interface 3 based on information from https://www.techopedia.com/definition/17302/scsi-3




Small Computer System Interface 3 (SCSI-3) is an ongoing
standardization effort for extending the features of SCSI-2.




What about (0,0,0)? Any idea what are these numbers for?



I've attached the screenshot for your reference.

It means:



  • Controller 0

  • Disk 0

  • Partition 0

So it is the 1st disk controller, the 1st disk and the 1st partition on that disk.




ls -1d /sys/class/scsi_device/*/device/block/*


will list them all and also show the device name used for it.Example:



$ ls -1d /sys/class/scsi_device/*/device/block/*
/sys/class/scsi_device/2:0:0:0/device/block/sr0
/sys/class/scsi_device/4:0:0:0/device/block/sda
/sys/class/scsi_device/5:0:0:0/device/block/sdb


  • Linux device naming
