How do I identify the different disks such as boot, temp and data in Azure VMs with Linux.

Each Linux VM in Azure initially has an OS disk from which it is booted and further data disks that are attached in SAP.
The disk overview in the Azure portal provides an overview of which LUN is linked to which disk.

This cannot be easily recognized at the OS level.
The tree tool provides support here and you can find the right disk directly.
If all additional disks have the same size, you can recognize the coupling at a glance and selectively expand the desired disk.

tree is not supplied as standard and must be installed later
