I have a 5.0 upgrade installation (new) to 5.5 after configuration DirectPath I/O, VM using PCI devices (in version 5.0 DirectPath I/O is normal when available), cannot open has the following tips, but put the VM machine in 5.0 on a server configuration is also normal, I ask what reason is this?
Open virtual machine Windows 2003 Slave power, will receive from the ESX host error.
The virtual machine cannot be started.
Because of a hardware or software support is not available, therefore unable to 0:29. 2 pciPassthru0 registered devices
IBM server 3650 M3 in I saw in the BIOS of the CPU Intel VT is open.
Thank you very much!!
What is vm hardware version after upgrade??
Had doubts because hardware version also ask, VM hardware version in 7.0 also has an error, is also an error after upgrading to 8.0.
What kind of hardware are you trying to Pass-through?
You should update your virtual hardware to vmx10 unless you are using the free version of ESXi.
Is the bios updated to the latest version?
Could you post the vmx-file, the vmware.log-file and the vmkernel.log?
(Use the advanced editor and attach the logs, DO NOT post them in a reply window)

I put it down to 5.0 IBM is normal, and I in the DELL R710 installed on 5.5, there is no this problem, it seems I have to look for IBM website BIOS firmware upgrade, etc.
