How to find out in which pocket on the server a specific hard drive?

Question

linux

SUPERMICRO server. Proxmox is on the server. How to find out in which pocket the disk is physically located, for example / dev / sdf ???

Answer 1

Blink.
dd if=/dev/sdX of=/dev/null bs=100M count=10

Answer 2

In my opinion - without stopping the server - in any way.
Since the question does not provide information about the disk controller and enclosure, the universal answer is:
Run the command specifying the disk
udevadm info --query=all --name=/dev/sda | grep ID_SERIAL After turning
off the server, find the drive by its serial number.

Answer 3

No way, you can find out on which port, and since the server can be assembled by crooked hands, they can confuse the cable from the portal to the disk

Answer 4

Refer to the disk, it will blink the indicator

Answer 5

In the general case, the easiest way is to blink, but if there is a normal controller, you can get where the disk is in the backplane, and there is a one-to-one correspondence, the positions are signed right on the backplane.
