Failed to register the device pciPassthru0 for 10:0.0 due to unavailable hardware or software support

[Tonyv1981]

Hi,

I have updatet my HP Proliant DL380 G8 to ESXI 5.5, after rebooting the Esxi Guest was unable to use our PCI Passthrough device (HP LTO Tape)

in our previous version of ESXI 5.1 it worked perfect. After the update its not possible anymore to bring our tape drive online.

The controller that is used by our LTO is an LSI1068E

We add the PCI passthrough again, but not ok.

Does anyone have a golden tip to activate our device in our VM?

Kind Regards,

Tony
