Hi folks, I'm struggling to make ReaR works for me because not raw disks nor partitions are included into disklayout.conf file. My machines are running SUSE SLES 11/12 most common 4.12.14-122.57-default version. I'll put here some outputs but not sure if they'll be enough for full investigation: /etc/rear/local.conf
df -h
fdisk -l
The boot disk is coming from SAN, not locally and we are talking about VMs if that makes sense. I'm attaching here current disklayout conf file, as well as partition_layout & create_layout scripts. I'll highly appreciate if someone could refer me to the right point of investigation 200_partition_layout.txt |

in our current GitHub master code via

which is not needed on systems with a few disks
but may somewhat speed up things on systems with many disks (hundreds)
