375+
This issue can occur if disks are mounted to a directory using the device name (e.g., /dev/sdc1) instead of UUID. When the VM reboots or when it is recovered as a new VM, the device names are assigned in a random order. To ensure that the right drive is mounted to your directory, always mount drives using UUID obtained from the `blkid` utility. [Learn more](../virtual-machines/linux/attach-disk-portal.yml).
