CentOS - Jun 2017 - CentOS 6 and crypttab

Folks,

   I have an issue: I've gotten that drive that I posted about the other
day encrypted, and things were looking good... until there was a
problem with another RAID attached to the box, and I wound up having to
reboot.

   What had been /dev/sdb came up as /dev/sdc. So... is there any way
other than using /dev/disk/by-uuid/<uUUID> as the second field in
/etc/crypttab to deal with this possibility?

Use UUID=xxx

cryptsetup luksUUID /dev/sdcx shows the corresponding ID
