As mike said .. when we deploy a vm ,root disk will be created with instance id(root-3) id and this the number is increases sequentially when we deploy more instances .
Like first system vm s get instance id as 1,2 for cpvm and ssvm with root disks tagged with instanced id like root-1 for cpvm,root-2 for ssvm and later router and guest vms gets next incremental ids . Data disks will be created with the whatever name we provided.

I imagine the instance ID of this root volume will be that of the VM.
