diskvisible
Diskvisible is a term used in computer storage management to describe whether a disk device is exposed to a given layer of the computing stack, such as the host operating system, a virtual machine, or a container. It covers both physical visibility (the device is detectable by drivers) and logical visibility (the device is presented to a specific OS instance or workload through virtualization or container runtimes). Because it is not a universally standardized term, its exact meaning can vary between platforms.
In virtualization environments, disk visibility is controlled by the hypervisor or orchestration layer. Administrators can attach
Practical considerations include how diskvisibility interacts with device naming (such as /dev entries or mounted paths),
