Driver needed for ATTO ExpressSAS H644

[bishopit]

I am trying to find the VMWare driver for ESXi 6.7 to support an ATTO ExpressSAS H644 SAS controller.

ATTO directs me to the VMWare compatible site where I find the following driver recommended:

If you select the link it just takes you to the Download VSphere where I can select Drivers and tools

but I cannot find the above listed driver.   I have performed a Google search for this but only get a

hit on and ISO for ESXi 6.0.

Can anyone tell me where I can find the vib for the above driver?

Hi,

It should be found at this address:

VMware Compatibility Guide - I/O Device Search

Which then refers to this address:

VMware vSphere 5: Private Cloud Computing, Server and Data Center Virtualization

But that hijacks to version 5.5

If you download the Notes, it says that it is compatible only for Esxi 5.5 and 6.0

Even if you initially selected Esxi 6.7

Release notes for ATTO esas2hba driver version 1.70

1. Driver name: esas4hba, Driver version: 1.70

2. Compatible ESX Versions: 5.5, 6.0

3. Dependencies: None

4. Bugs Fixed:

   - Added support for ESXi 5.5 and 6.0.

5. New hardware supported: None

6. Known Issues and Workarounds: None

7. Additional configuration options supported by the driver: None

Seems like a problem with the download, I immediately report it to vmware. (LucD) scott28tt true

Hi,

as I said in the previous answer, I wrote to ask for confirmation and it seems that something is wrong. A verification will be opened. It will take some time. However, I suggest you try to download the version that I have indicated before, because there could be an error only in the file of the Notes that have not also included Esxi 6.7

If so, the driver should work.

Sorry for the late reply on this.

I worked with ATTO support and for what I was trying to do I was able to download the Windows drivers and using

PCI Passthrough to attach the drive to a VM  guest I got the drive working.  I did not need to load the VM driver

to use the device in passthrough mode.

Have it up and working with ATTO support help.

Thanks for the assistance.
