Chapter 2 Installing and Configuring ESX Server

! SCSI Storage Controller – Allocate storage adapters to be used by the service

console and virtual machines on the server. The service console and the virtual

machines must have access to at least one device. A SCSI or RAID adapter

should be shared to use that adapter or array for both the service console and

virtual machines. When you are allocating SCSI or RAID devices, the unit of

device allocation is a PCI card device. You may connect multiple SCSI or RAID

disks, CD-ROM drives, tape drives, and other devices to the SCSI or RAID

adapter.

You should give as many SCSI or RAID devices to the virtual machines as

possible to ensure that the majority of your mass storage resources are used

by your virtual machines. If you do not have any SCSI disks, you may have to

allocate at least one IDE disk to the service console since the service console

needs to have a disk from which it and the ESX Server can boot.

! Ethernet Controller – Allocate network adapters to be used by the service

console and virtual machines on the server. Be sure that both the service

console and the virtual machines have access to at least one device. It is

generally good to give as many network adapters to the virtual machines as

possible. Doing so helps ensure that the majority of your network resources

are devoted to the virtual machines. Because the service console is intended

primarily as a management interface, you should minimize resources

allocated to the service console. You need to allocate at least one Ethernet

device to the service console in order to manage your ESX Server machine

remotely.

! Fibre Channel Device – Allocate fibre channel devices to be used by the

service console and virtual machines on the server. Be sure to set the fibre

channel devices to Shared with Service Console if installing on Storage Area

Networks (SANs). This is the default setting. If you plan to use raw disk

mapping with ESX Server, do not select the option to share the fibre channel

device with the service console. After you install ESX Server, you can change

this setting using VMware Management Interface.
