• 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.

• creating a virtual xp which uses a scsi lsi logic controller machine

  Can someone tell me where I can get the drivers needed to allow a xp operating system to see the logic lsi controller during startup?

  I need to create a computer virtual xp which uses a scsi controller.  I was hoping to add drivers during the generation of the process but don't know where I can get them.

  Here is the LSI driver we use for XP.  Just make sure that you create a VM "customized" and press F6 during your build, and then mount the image.

• 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

  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.

• How do I change the logic LSI Logic SCSI's BUS controller in a prompt Windows 2003 running on ESX 3.5 U4

  I'm unable to find clear instructions on how to change the logic LSI Logic SCSI's BUS controller in a Windows 2003 running on ESX 3.5 U4 prompt.

  If someone could help me I really appreciate.

  Thank you

  Cannot not just off VM, go to the settings on the Hardware tab, Type of SCSI controller, click on modify the type and change of LSI Logic.

• Change a Bus Type of controller SCSI VMs of BusLogic at LSI Logic

  I'm creating a new virtual machine with "New - VM", but the scsi controller that is created by default is a BusLogic, I need a controller LSI Logic.

  What is the best way to achieve this?

  Kind regards

  Roman

  Take a look at the Configuration Type of SCSI controller.

  This filter must be able to do the trick.

• Get a card VM SCSI - Bus logic or LSI Logic adapter by using Get - VM

  Hello, I tried to find a quick way to determine which virtual machines in our ESX 3.5 / 2.5 VC use the logical Bus for scsi card driver.  I had a lot of luck.  Anyone know of a way?  Thank you.

  This one-liner should do the trick

  Get-View -ViewType VirtualMachine | Select Name,
       @{N="SCSI Controller";
         E={($_.Config.Hardware.Device | where{$_.DeviceInfo.Label -match "SCSI"}).DeviceInfo.Summary}}
  

• LSI Logic SCSI Ultra320 RAID Firmware and the BIOS utility. Cannot make the diskettes.

  I downloaded the pack sp29637 for Firmware LSI Logic Ultra320 SCSI RAID and the BIOS utility to my Workstation xw 8200. I'm doing a disk from the downloaded file. I runs the file, but when it tells me to put a floppy disk in the A: drive and I confirm, the window closes and the diskette is not made. Looks like the copy in the file program is corrupted.
  Does anyone have this already developed package files so I can copy them to a floppy disk?
  The files are supposed to be the following:

  Hi Sasi,

  Yes you are right. Then, I realized that I could open these files using Winzip or Winrar. I thank very you much for responding to my post.

• LSI Logic SCSI controller, how will I know if I use it?

  I read in the 4.5 Administrator's guide view that they suggest that you use the LSI Logic SCSI so adapter when configuring the virtual machine, I chose "Custom" and LSI Logic parallel for the SCSI controller and the installation of XP, I did the steps "F6" then "S" and made him a floppy image, I created on the site of LSI and the driver appeared as "LSI Logic PCI Fusion-MPT Driver (XP 32 - bit).  Everything went very well with the installation but I don't see a SCSI adapter that is listed in the Windows Device Manager and in the virtual machine's .vmx file, I open in Wordpad does not from there. I also checked the settings of the virtual machine when he was running down and do not see a SCSI card that there are listed be?

  But in the virtual machine settings, I do not see a SCSI LSI controller.

  You must use SCSI drives instead of IDE disks.

• Add disk Workflow fails when you use the LSI Logic SAS SCSI controller

  I'm in vCenter Orchestrator 4.0.1

  When you try to run the workflow work add drive on a virtual machine that uses the LSI Logic SAS SCSI controller I get an error no controller found.

  This workflow is under: library-> VIM 3-> Virtual Machine Management-> device management

  The workflow add disk supports the LSI Logic SAS controller?  If this is not the case, no idea of how to create my own custom adds workflow to disk that would work with this controller?

  Thank you!

  Which plugin you have configured to talk to your Virtual Center? the plugin 3.5 or 4.0 plugin? If you have used the plugin 4.0, you must use the library-> VC-> * workflow so that the correct objects get used.

• New hard drive fails on Windows Server 2008 VM with LSI Logic SAS SCSI controller

  When I try to add a new hard disk to a virtual computer with the cmdlet New-disk hard of a Windows Server 2008 virtual computer, I get the following error:

  New-hard drive: 18/01/2010-14:59:48 New-B8EDFDDF-ACF6-43AC-B111-51D332290FC7 hard drive for the entity vm-315 failed with the following message: "Number of virtual devices exceeds the maximum for a given controller."

  When assigning a different virtual machine, for example the parallel LSI Logic Controller, it is not a problem at all. When I add additional disks using the VI Client, there also no problem, regardless of the SCSI controller I use.

  Someone had this problem as well? Y at - it a known solution?

  Hi rengelen,

  I admit that I was pretty murky about when the fix will be available. The thing is that VMware has a policy that employees should not mention liberation time unless we are certain that we can keep his promise of 100%. Hence statemens as 'will be available in a future release.

• LSI Logic or BusLogic SCSI controller

  Hello

  We have ESX3.5 Update2.

  All WIN2000 / NT VM machines have BusLogic, but WIN2003 and linux Debian have de LSI Logic SCSI controller.

  Is this correct?

  When you use BusLogic and LSI Logic SCSI controller?

  What are the differences?

  There is a great doc that explains the differences between virtual SCSI adapters. Hope this helps.

• New-VM creates a false for WINXP (Buslogic instead of LSI Logic) SCSI controller

  Hello

  I m using VI Toolskit 1.5 to create a few VM´s

  the pretty run´s script, but using '-ID winXPProGuest "creates a virtual machine with surprised I m, 0 Buslogic SCSI controller EXPECTED that result should be LSI Logic

  CODE:

  new-vm-host $VMHost - name $VMName - diskmb $DiskSize - memorymb $Memory - Networkname $Networkname - data $Datastore store - ID winXPProGuest - runasync

  Some ideas?

  Greetings JB01

  You should be able to create it as a guest of Vista, which will give you an LSI controller. If you need you can come back later and change the ID invited with Set - VM - ID. This will not change the type of controller.

• LSI Logic LSI SAS vs parallel?

  What is the difference between these two SCSI controllers available for VMS?

  Should be chosen according to the what is the real underlying disk system (if there is real or not SAS disks) or has to do with the guest operating system?

  Are there differences in performance between them?

  no gain.  SAS controller is required for MSCS 2008 and will be available only if vHardware is 7, but it's really the only time wherever you will use it.  LSI Logic P is the controller of choice

• Parallel to LSI Logic SAS LSI logic change

  Hi guys

  We found a pretty slow Windows 2008 R2 VM, and we found the used SCSI controller is LSI Logic parallel how can change us at LSI Logic SAS and have Windows 2008 Startup OK?

  Thank you very much

  I wrote an article on how to do it here: http://wahlnetwork.com/2011/12/20/how-to-change-scsi-controller-type-on-a-vmware-vm/

  In your case, it's the opposite, but the instructions work the same (just go parallel to SAS instead).
