GCP Display Device Names on OS
In GCP console you can see the VM’s Device Names. In this case, it’s boot and persistent-disk-1.
Name Device name
server-boot boot
server-data persistent-disk-1 |
To display the volume names on the OS, run this command.
$ ls -l /dev/disk/by-id total 0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 9 Aug 2 01:12 google-boot -> ../../sda lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 10 Aug 2 01:12 google-boot-part1 -> ../../sda1 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 9 Aug 18 18:48 google-persistent-disk-1 -> ../../sdb lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 9 Aug 2 01:12 scsi-0Google_PersistentDisk_boot -> ../../sda lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 10 Aug 2 01:12 scsi-0Google_PersistentDisk_boot-part1 -> ../../sda1 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 9 Aug 18 18:48 scsi-0Google_PersistentDisk_persistent-disk-1 -> ../../sdb |
As you can see, boot and persistent-disk-1 are displayed along with its device names /dev/sda and /dev/sdb.
