scsi0.present = "FALSE"
scsi1.present = "FALSE"
scsi2.present = "FALSE"
scsi3.present = "FALSE"
this four lines disable all virtual SCSI-hardware
scsi0.present = "TRUE"
scsi0.virtualDev = "buslogic"
this two lines add a BUSLOGIC-SCSI-controller to the VM.
Don NOT specify the PCI-slot
scsi0.present = "TRUE"
scsi0.virtualDev = "lsilogic"
this
two lines add a LSI LOGIC-SCSI-controller to the VM.
Do NOT specify the PCI-slot
scsi0.present = "TRUE"
scsi0.virtualDev = "lsisas1068"
this
two lines add a LSI LOGIC-SAS SCSI-controller to the VM.
Do NOT specify the PCI-slot
scsi0.present = "TRUE"
scsi0.virtualDev = "pvscsi"
this
two lines add the paravirtual -SCSI-controller to the VM.
Do NOT specify the PCI-slot
SCSI-devices
To add a scsi-device you also need one of the snippets for the SCSI-Controller
scsi0:0.present = "TRUE"
scsi0:0.fileName = "scsi.vmdk"
this two lines add a regular virtual disk to the VM .
Adjust SCSI-ID as needed
scsi0:0.present
= "TRUE"
scsi0:0.deviceType = "cdrom-image"
scsi0:0.fileName = "install.iso"
scsi0:0.startConnected = "TRUE"
this lines add a an ISO-file as a CD-device to the VM.
Adjust SCSI-ID as
needed
scsi0:0.present = "TRUE"
scsi0:0.startConnected = "TRUE"
scsi0:0.deviceType = "cdrom-raw"
scsi0:0.filename = "E:"
scsi0:0.startConnected = "TRUE"
on a Windows-host this lines add a CD-writer connected to driveletter E: to the VM.
The VM can NOT boot from it but it can be used for writing from the VM.
Adjust SCSI-ID as
needed
scsi0:0.present = "TRUE"
scsi0:0.startConnected = "TRUE"
scsi0:0.deviceType = "cdrom-raw"
scsi0:0.filename = "/dev/hdc"
scsi0:0.startConnected = "TRUE"
on a Linux-host this lines add a CD-writer to the VM.
The VM can NOT boot from it but it can be used for writing from the VM.
Adjust SCSI-ID as
needed
