"sar -d 5" is my favorite way to get disk latency numbers, but the device names it reports are just major, minor numbers. This isn't how I think about filesystems, so I need to map to a human-readable filesystem name to understand the latency numbers that are reported.

the output of sar -d 5 looks like this for me

I get major/minor device numbers with "ls -lL /dev/" and read through looking for a match
I happen to already know the general range of devices that have traffic, so I've narrowed down my list, but the first time I did this, I went through all of /dev. In this example, I'm looking for the dev8-0 and dev252-2 since they are busy writing at the moment.
root@weasel:~# ls -lL /dev/sda* brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 0 Mar 23 08:06 /dev/sda brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 1 Mar 23 08:06 /dev/sda1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 2 Mar 23 08:06 /dev/sda2 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 5 Mar 23 08:06 /dev/sda5 root@weasel:~# ls -lL /dev/dm* brw-rw---- 1 root disk 252, 0 Mar 23 08:06 /dev/dm-0 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 252, 1 Mar 23 08:06 /dev/dm-1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 252, 2 Mar 23 08:06 /dev/dm-2 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 252, 3 Mar 23 08:06 /dev/dm-3 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 252, 4 Mar 23 08:06 /dev/dm-4
Here I see the device names of interest are /dev/sda and /dev/dm-2. Looking in /dev/mapper, I can see the friendly name for dm-2 is Ubuntu-root.
root@weasel:~# ls -l /dev/mapper total 0 crw------- 1 root root 10, 236 Mar 23 08:06 control lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Mar 23 08:06 netstore-netstore -> ../dm-0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Mar 23 08:06 netstore-store -> ../dm-1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Mar 23 08:06 rootback-rootback -> ../dm-4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Mar 23 08:06 Ubuntu-root -> ../dm-2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Mar 23 08:06 Ubuntu-swap_1 -> ../dm-3
dmsetup ls
Another way to map major/minor numbers and names.
root@weasel:~# dmsetup ls Ubuntu-swap_1 (252, 3) netstore-netstore (252, 0) Ubuntu-root (252, 2) netstore-store (252, 1) rootback-rootback (252, 4)
