disk product and vendor name is not full when using scsi0:0.productID, scsi0:0.vendorID

  • 1.  disk product and vendor name is not full when using scsi0:0.productID, scsi0:0.vendorID

    Posted 2 days ago

    I use scsi0:0.productID = "Samsung SSD 870 EVO 2TB" to change the model name of my VM disk and scsi0:0.vendorID = "Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd" to change the vendor name but the model name (productID) cuts off after 15 characters and becomes "Samsung SSD 870" and vendor name (vendorID) cuts off after 8 characters being recognized "Samsung " even if what i type there was long. How can i fix that? Why doesn't it just be the full string? You can also see that at the output below. root@server:~# lsblk -s -o NAME,MODEL,VENDOR

    NAME MODEL VENDOR

    sda1

    └─sda Samsung SSD 870 Samsung

    sda2

    └─sda Samsung SSD 870 Samsung

    sdb SSDSCKKW512G8 Intel

    sdc Virtual Storage VMware

    sr0 SDRW-08D2S-U ASUS I cannot get them to be longer, even other disk tools show the cut off model and vendor names.
