How Can I Obtain the Mapping Between Disk Partitions and Disk Devices on a Linux ECS?

For a Linux ECS, its disk partitions correspond to disk devices. This section uses a Linux ECS running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 as an example to describe how to obtain the mapping between disk partitions and disk devices.

  1. Log in to the Linux ECS as user root.

  2. Right-click in the blank area of the desktop and choose Open Terminal from the shortcut menu.
