![]() Sas Controller What Is
VMware Paravirtual SCSI controllers are best suited for environments, especially SAN environments, running I/O-intensive applications.
See About VMware Paravirtual SCSI Controllers. To access boot disk devices attached to a PVSCSI controller, verify that the virtual machine has a Windows 2003 or Windows 2008 guest operating system. In some operating systems, before you change the controller type you need to create a virtual machine with an LSI Logic controller, install VMware. By default for Windows Server 2008 and above, the default virtual SCSI controller is the LSI Logic SAS disk controller. It’s there for compatibility purposes, and piggybacks the existing driver that is built into the operating system. It works great because it always ‘just works’.
