pve - Disks : HDD Information / SN

[aViN187]

Hi folks,

i'm pretty new to proxmox and linux in general, therefore please don't be to harsh on me.

I got a quesiton: I'll purchased some HDD Drives in order to make a TrueNAS store for my homelab, and after some initial trouple i was able to passthrough the external USB-HDD Drives which are now inside TrueNAS in a proper ZFS pool.

When i take a look at the HDD details inside the pve node i'll the the drives which i add by using qm set 1xx -scsix /dev/disk/by-id/xxx


The question is: why do those information display so wired, i mean - oviously the serial number is not 0...02, etc.

hdparm, -I /dev/sdb shows the information i expect.

ATA device, with non-removable media Model Number: ST6000VN001-2BB186 Serial Number: ZR11BWXF Firmware Revision: SC60 Transport: Serial, ATA8-AST, SATA 1.0a, SATA II Extensions, SATA Rev 2.5, SATA Rev 2.6, SATA Rev 3.0 Standards: Used: unknown (minor revision code 0x006d) Supported: 10 9 8 7 6 5 Likely used: 10 Configuration: Logical max current cylinders 16383 16383 heads 16 16 sectors/track 63 63 -- CHS current addressable sectors: 16514064 LBA user addressable sectors: 268435455 LBA48 user addressable sectors: 11721045168 Logical Sector size: 512 bytes Physical Sector size: 4096 bytes Logical Sector-0 offset: 0 bytes device size with M = 1024*1024: 5723166 MBytes device size with M = 1000*1000: 6001175 MBytes (6001 GB) cache/buffer size = unknown Form Factor: 3.5 inch Nominal Media Rotation Rate: 5425 and so on ....

What do i need to to in order that pve shows the "correct" values?

Thanks!

it is probably due to external usb enclosure which overwrites some data over sata.
we collect the information from udev which gets its info from the sysfs (/sys/block/*) which is normally more reliable and faster than going through smartctl/hdparm
