Change the type of scsi controller / windows7Server64Guest and LSI Logic SAS

Hello

I would like the parallel to sas LSI Logic scsi LSI logic controller type.

the reason is this colleague has created an image of windows 2008 R2 and I want to install the machine in script.

He used LSI Logic SAS.

When I used PowerCLi for create a new virtual machine with the existing drive, he created with the LSI Logic parallel...

(of course I change it manually, but I would like to completely automate the installation)

could someone help me on this?

Thank you very much in advance

Fred

Have you ever watched the SCSI adapater to paravirtual with PowerCLI change ?

Instead of the VMware.Vim.ParaVirtualSCSIController you select the VMware.Vim.VirtualLsiLogicSASController object.

Let me know that make you it work if I can post a sample.

  • Create the virtual machine with the type of controller SCSI LSI logic SAS with PowerCLi

    Hey guys,.

    IM the difficulty to create a virtual machine with the type of controller SCSI to "LSI Logic SAS". The cmdlet New - VM im struggling to find where to create the type of controller?

    If you create a virtual machine without specifying a disk it will create a 4 GB SCSI type thick (0:0) hard drive 1 with 0 Parrall default BusLogic SCSI controller.

    What im wanting to do is to create a disk hard which is thin Prov. and create SCSI LSI logic SAS controller is set to.

    New-VM -name VMSTORE23 -$vmhost $esxhost MemoryMB- 4096 NumCpu- 2 -NetworkName "Vlan 6 Machine Virtual Network" | Get-NetworkAdapter | Set-NetworkAdapter -Type Vmxnet3 -MacAddress '00:50:56:00:00:21' -confirm:$false

    I have recived of aid by some LucD who helped direct the value of the network card in the New - VM cmdlet as follows. But I'm not able to add a hose for hard disk also like:

    | Get-hard drive | Together-hard drive - Datastore $datastore - slim StorageFormat

    And I have no idea how change the type of SCSI conroller or create it with the correct configuration?

    Any help would be great,

    Thanks in advance

    Greetings, steddyeddie-

    You should be able to use Set - hard drive and SCSI controller Set cmdlets to set the storage format of your hard drive and the SCSI controller type, respectively.  You were close to on the part of game - hard drive .  Try something like:

    ## get the VM object $vmVMSTORE23 = Get-VM VMSTORE23 ## set the harddisk storageformat to thin$vmVMSTORE23 | Get-HardDisk | Set-HardDisk -StorageFormat Thin ## set the SCSI controller type$vmVMSTORE23 | Get-ScsiController | Set-ScsiController -Type VirtualLsiLogicSAS
    

    It could pack in to your existing order to keep it as a good word, but for readability.

  • How to: install Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit) in ESXi 4.1 - 260247 with controller 'LSI Logic SAS'?

    Hello

    I have a newly installed ESXi 4.1 - 260247 on a Fujitsu - Siemens GROUND RX300 S4 with 2 x Intel Xeon E5420 @ 2.5 GHz with 36 GB of RAM.

    Storage controller is a LSI MegaRAID SAS 1078 6 x 750 GB SATA - drives configured with 3xRAID-1 logical drives. BIOS Version 4.06 Rev 1.04.2519

    Now, I'm trying to install "Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit" in a virtual machine, but fail because the virtual hard disk cannot be found.

    I tried with all Types of SCSI controller, but when running of the "Create Virtual Machine"-magician, he suggests 'LSI Logic SAS'. "." I tried 'LSI Logic parallel' and "VMware Paravirtual" but it did not work. However, I have not tried "Parallel BusLogic", since it clearly says no "recommended for this guest operating system".

    I was unable to find documentation on how and where I can find the "LSI Logic SAS" - pilot to be able to continue the installation. The

    Windows Server 2008 R2 installation is an ISO obtained directly from Microsoft eLicensing.

    I also downloaded the drivers floppy 'pvscsi - Windows2008.flp' and 'vmscsi.flp' from the ESXi server, but the program finds no driver validates the installation of Windows on them.

    I also extracted files "windows.iso' of the ESXi machine, but not drivers there as well.

    So my question is, what model is the "LSI Logic SAS", I guess I can download these LSI directly, I need to know what model?

    Any help appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Kind regards

    chrkad,

    I think you have the same problem I had.   Trying to install 2008 R2 and asked for drivers?

    The issue wound up being an ISO corrupt Ms.

    Try to download the ISO using the java-based download manager.  This will tell you if your download is getting disturbed, as mine was.  It will also be the image once completed to ensure you've got the whole thing of checksum.  Just download via HTTP does not.

    I found myself in download the image of the House and burn a DVD and realize that the back of the office,

  • Can you change the type of device to 'USB Raw resource' to GPIB controller?

    I'm trying to configure a GPIB FL Contec GP - IB (USB) controller in MAX.  I could so he can register through the creation of a pilot of the Assistant driver VISA, but it fits as a "gross resource USB" rather than as a GPIB controller.  I can send and receive information from the controller, but it does give me an option to search for connected devices of GPIB communicate with them.  Is it possible to change the type of the device, maybe by manually changing the driver created by the wizard of the NI-VISA driver?  Thank you for your time.

    N ° do not use MAX at all. You can just create a GPIB-USB controller on your own. You should contact the seller.

  • Hardware certification - Question of Type of SCSI controller

    Controller SCSI of VM types are defined in the Certification Guide of compulsory storage?

    I installed Windows 2008 Server on a virtual machine with the type of LSI Logic SAS controller (that I see, I can't change it prior to installation) and after that the installation has been completed and VM booted ok I put off and then changed the type of controller for VMware Paravirtual. VM could not start. I changed the type of controller to LSI Logic parallel and got the same result - VM could not start Windows.

    Can I use LSI Logic SAS on all virtual machines where I can not change the type of controller or it will not pass the verification test?

    Thank you in advance.

    The reason why it cannot start, it is that there is no driver installed for it.

    To work around this, add another controller of the new type, start windows and install the driver, then stop switch the premiera autour and you should be fine.

  • Question about changing the type of adapter during cloning with vmkfstools

    Hello world

    It seems to me have found stuck trying to use vmkfstools-i to clone a machine, in fact the command seems to work fine except that I would like to change the screen to type hard "ide" to "buslogic" drive adapter at the same time and this is where I am stuck. That's what I tried...

    vmkfstools-i < /path/to/oldmachine.vmdk > < /path/to/newmachine.vmdk > - a buslogic

    This command is cloning my machine but when I go to the newly created vmdk file ddb.adapter type is always set to "ide" not "buslogic". It seems that the '-a buslogic "directive is ignored, or I do not understand what it is supposed to do.

    Anyone know what I could do wrong?

    Thanks in advance.

    for a disc of data-rewrite of the line ddb.adapterType = in the vmdk descriptor is sufficient.

    For a boot disk, I would also rewrite the geometry of the disk.

    I took a few notes on this subject - see http://sanbarrow.com/vmdk-basics.html#changeadapter

    How to change the type of adapter to an existing vmdk

    A vmdk can be connected to different controllers
    -IDE
    Bus-controller-
    LSI-controller-
    -SAS-controller LSI-logic
    -new paravirtualised SCSI controller

    In the description of vmdk is affected in the parameter

    ddb.adapterType =

    The description of vmdk includes only three values: "ide", "buslogic", "free".
    For all the latest as the LSI controllers - SAS use 'free '.
    If you need to change the type of adapter of a disk that is used to start a prompt, it is recommended
    for also change the geometry of the disk-.
    If the disk is used only for data alignment is not necessary.
    Remember that the type of adapter to a virtual machine is also set up in the vmx file.
    So if you rewrite an IDE-SCSI-disk do not also forget to change / check the vmx file

    ide0:0. FileName = ' ide - disk.vmdk.

    TO

    scsi0. Present = 'true '.
    scsi0.virtualDev = "free".
    scsi0:0. Present = 'true '.
    scsi0:0. FileName = "changed - disk.vmdk."

    How to calculate the geometry of the disk

    There are several reasons why you want to manually calculate the geometry of the disk:
    -change the type of an existing vmdk adapter
    -create a vmdk to a dd-file description
    -create a description of vmdk to an img file as used by Starwind
    -create a vmdk to a description *-flat.vmdk when the original description is lost

    In all cases, we must firstly the nominal size of the disk in sectors.
    Find the size of the image file in bytes.

    / 512 =

    Then decide what type of geometry: IDE or SCSI

    For disks SCSI is the typical geometry * cylinders x 255 heads x 63 sectors

    DDB. Geometry.Cylinders = *.
    DDB. Geometry.Heads = "255".
    DDB. Geometry.sectors = "63".

    To calculate the number of cylinders
    / 16065 =
    When the vmdk using adapertype buslogic or free this formula is valid for all disks greater than 1 GB capacity

    For the typical geometry IDE drives is * cylinders x 16 heads x 63 sectors

    DDB. Geometry.Cylinders = *.
    DDB. Geometry.Heads = "16".
    DDB. Geometry.sectors = "63".

    To calculate the number of cylinders
    / = 1008
    When the vmdk using adapertype ide the maximum value for is 16383.
    For all over - 8 GB - capacity discs so you can use this geometry

    DDB. Geometry.Cylinders = "16383.
    DDB. Geometry.Heads = "16".
    DDB. Geometry.sectors = "63".

  • Change the type of sensor pressure strain for SCXI-1314

    Hello!

    I would like to ask how to change the type of strain sensor.

    I use SCXI-1314 and one of my pressure sensor is a type of 4-wire. (Output 100mV, excitement: 10vdc)

    , but I want to replace the sensor by another type of current output type. (Output 4 ~ 20mV, excitement: 12-30Vdc)

    I checked the output voltage cable 4. (Defined as full-bridge OR max)

    Power + = Ex +.

    Food - = Ex-

    CH+        =  S+

    CH-         =  S-

    However, I don't know how to connect the type 2-wire with SCXI-1314.

    In addition, I don't have enough experience on the types of bridge (bridges and whole, quarter half)

    Can you explain what I need to do?

    One thing you migth try is to put a 5 Ohm resistor in the current loop. causing a drop in voltage 100mV on resistance, however check the soil conditions.  Since you will need a new calculation of sensitivty sensor anyway you can use a resistor 4.7 Ohm or 2 10 ohms in parallel... just find a good match between your 1314 input voltage range and the 4-20mA.

    And you will have an external power supply for the sensor.

  • Is there a setting I need to change the windows Defender because my laptop and an iphone4 work together properly on the internet, and they seem to take turns?

    I contacted my internet provider several times in recent weeks and they haven't a clue what's wrong, so they want to send a technician for £180, but a friend had the same problem and contacted PCWorld and they said that it is to do with the security setting so he then contacted McAffee and they changed the type of security on the router WPA2-Personal wireless to another and apparently it works fine now so do you think that's what I have to do? Sorry if this is real confusing :) kind regards D

    Isn't it clear what your problem is, but if you use McAfee (based on what I read on other forums) you should probably uninstall or disable Windows Defender on your laptop.  Windows Defender and McAfee may not work well together as MSE and McAfee should not be used on the same computer.

    Some older portable computers (such as my Dell Inspiron 5100 with XP Pro 2004) does not connect to a WPA-2 wireless router - mine only works with WEP and WPA.  Maybe it's the cause of your problem, but of course if your laptop is new, it should work fine with WPA-2.

    Given that your problems are not associated with MSE, why not ask your advice in the Microsoft Windows Forum at http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us or on the website of the manufacturer of your router and maybe they can help.

    Good luck...

  • How can I change the type of chassis in an existing CompactRIO project?

    Hello

    I have a built in LabView 8.2 for a chassis 9101 cRIO. Now, I want to bring to LabView 2009 and use it on a chassis of 9104. I would have thought this should be simple, but there is a VI on the FPGA itself. When you compile, I get the error "the device type that has been set up in this function does not match the actual type of the device. I don't want to have to remove the frame of the project & add it back (losing all the settings it can have) - is there a way just to change the type of target, but keeping the relevant parameters?

    Thanks for any help!

    Dave

    Hi Dave,.

    Once you've practiced it several times it is actually a piece of cake.

    Right click on the project select new target or device

    Rember just to specify rather than the current goal.

    Otherwise, you will have a conflict.

    The new target is initialized to the Ip (0,0,0,0) then re address assignment standard.

    Copy (drag) all the components for the new device (RT & FPGA if included)

    Note it's manual labor rather than you have to 'say' labview what material he must understand!
