A handy one liner in my case to use was (Copy and paste the three lines below):

# fdisk -sl 2>&1|awk 'BEGIN { pflg=0; } { if ( ( $0 ~ /sd[abcdefghijkl]/ || \
$0 ~ /Device/ ) ) pflg=1; if ( pflg == 1 && $0 !~ /mapper/ && $0 !~ /valid \
partition table/ ) print; if ( $0 ~ /^[ \r\t\n]*$/ ) pflg=0; }'

This would list all the disks up to sdl including sizes.  For a more brief look, the ls command is handy:

# ls -al /dev/sd*
brw-rw—-. 1 root disk 8,  0 Mar 31 23:29 /dev/sda
brw-rw—-. 1 root disk 8, 16 Mar 31 23:29 /dev/sdb
brw-rw—-. 1 root disk 8, 32 Mar 31 23:29 /dev/sdc
brw-rw—-. 1 root disk 8, 48 Mar 31 23:29 /dev/sdd
brw-rw—-. 1 root disk 8, 64 Mar 31 23:29 /dev/sde
brw-rw—-. 1 root disk 8, 80 Mar 31 23:29 /dev/sdf
brw-rw—-. 1 root disk 8, 96 Mar 31 23:29 /dev/sdg
brw-rw—-. 1 root disk 8, 97 Mar 31 23:29 /dev/sdg1
brw-rw—-. 1 root disk 8, 98 Mar 31 23:29 /dev/sdg2
brw-rw—-. 1 root disk 8, 99 Mar 31 23:29 /dev/sdg3

Our SDD details:

# udevadm info -a -p /sys/block/sda
# udevadm info –attribute-walk –path /block/sda  # (Same as above)
# hdparm -i /dev/sda
# hdparm -I /dev/sda
# udevadm info –query all -n /dev/sda

Sample output with the unique identifiers that can be used highlighted in bold green:

# udevadm info -a -p /sys/block/sda

Udevadm info starts with the device specified by the devpath and then
walks up the chain of parent devices. It prints for every device
found, all possible attributes in the udev rules key format.
A rule to match, can be composed by the attributes of the device
and the attributes from one single parent device.

The UDEV rules are relatively self intuitive and for the purpose of this article, one was simply copied and modified for our
purpose from the /lib/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage.rules file (The entries, ie SUBSYSTEM…, should be all unbroken
one line entries):

# cat /lib/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage.rules

#

Notice how the devices correspond to the actual output of the udevadm commands above.  Similarly, we can use the MD_UUID
to uniquely add a name for our RAID6 array like this:

# cat /lib/udev/rules.d/64-md-raid.rules
ENV{DEVTYPE}=="disk", ENV{MD_NAME}=="mbpc:0", ENV{MD_UUID}=="2f36ac48:5e3e4c54:72177c53:bea3e41e", SYMLINK+="raidmd0", OPTIONS+="string_escape=replace"
#

NOTE: The UUID for Multi Disk (mdXX) devices can be obtained using:

# mdadm –detail /dev/md0 |grep -i UUID
           UUID : 2f36ac48:5e3e4c54:72177c53:bea3e41e
#

UDEV rule files are typically added to the /etc/udev/rules.d/ and the /lib/udev/rules.d/ folders.  The rules in the /etc/udev/rules.d/ folder would overwrite the rules in the /lib/udev/rules.d/ folder. 

NOTE: For the excercise here, the rules under /etc/udev/rules.d/ failed to work since variables such as $tempnode were undefined by the time the system processed rules under /etc/udev/rules.d/.  For the next step, the rules were added to

/lib/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage.rules
/lib/udev/rules.d/64-md-raid.rules

instead.  However the typical practice would be to add them to the /etc/udev/rules.d however this did NOT work for this example using the current rule configuration.

WARNING: If this is set to anything higher then 0 or err, the system may log so much that it would never boot up.

# cat /etc/udev/udev.conf
# The initial syslog(3) priority: "err", "info", "debug" or its
# numerical equivalent. For runtime debugging, the daemons internal
# state can be changed with: "udevadm control –log-priority=<value>".
udev_log=0
#

A safer way to set the logging higher temporarily until on next reboot udev.conf is read again, is to issue this command:

# udevadm control –log-priority=3

for example. 

Issue the command.  Typically, it will return no results unless a log option is set to non 0 (see step 5 above):

# udevadm trigger 2>&1
#

Check the /var/log/messages files for messages from UDEV:

# tail -f /var/log/messages
Apr  1 21:54:45 mbpc kernel: AMD64 EDAC driver v3.4.0
Apr  1 21:54:45 mbpc kernel: EDAC amd64: DRAM ECC disabled.
Apr  1 21:54:45 mbpc kernel: EDAC amd64: ECC disabled in the BIOS or no ECC capability, module will not load.
Apr  1 21:54:45 mbpc kernel: Either enable ECC checking or force module loading by setting 'ecc_enable_override'.

Apr  1 21:54:45 mbpc kernel: microcode: AMD microcode update via /dev/cpu/microcode not supported

A more verbose output when using the –log-priority flag would look like this (filtered):

# tail -f /var/log/messages|egrep -i "error|warning|fatal|fail"
