Nexenta VSA hot pluggin scsi controller

Added by Simon Bonello 9 months ago

Hi,

It is possible to hot plug a scsi controller to the nexanta box virtual machine ?

I need to attach more than 15 disks and I need to attach a new controller. It seems that you require a restart before SCSI controller is recognized by the box

Thanks

I haven't tried it. Should be easy to test with the VMware image of NexentaStor.

May have to run these commands via bash shell:

$ svcadm enable hotplug
$ cfgadm -a

Is this under ESXi? I've never seen hot plug of controllers like that work, but I could be wrong.
