My CHR VM is now booting in full SCSI paravirtual mode on ESXI 5.5u2Ĭode: Select all > sy resource pci printĠ 00:03.0 Cirrus Logic GD 5446 (rev: 0) 0ġ 00:02.0 XenSource, Inc.

Vmkfstools -i /vmfs/volumes/Datastore_local_x3300/CHR2/chr-6.31.vmdk /vmfs/volumes/Datastore_local_x3300/CHR2/ I created a new virtual machine with the template "Other Linux 3.x 64bit" and the machine is now created with VMware paravirtual controller and VMXnet3 network adapters.īut I was still unable to boot the VM with disk in SCSI mode (works fine with IDE), I had to "import" the vmdk with the following command executed on the ESXi console : Scsi0.sasWWID = "50 05 05 6e f4 ee b7 a0"Īlso, add scsi drives in order (starting with 0) jumping over may yield strange results.įor my first attempt, I used the template "Other Linux 64bit" and it defaulted with LSI Logic SCSI controller and E1000 network adapter.

Code: Select all scsi0.virtualDev = "pvscsi"
