Hey there!
I have an ESXi host where a few of my Windows 2016 w/ SQL Server 2016 are getting a lot of the errors like this in the Windows System Event Log:
" Reset to device, \Device\RaidPort0, was issued"
I found the main article on this here:
"Reset to device, \Device\RaidPort0, was issued" error in the Windows event log (2063346)
VMware Knowledge Base
but found that the site mentioned does not have the LSI_SAS drivers for Windows 2016, or anything since Windows 2008 R2, So I decided to try the route mentioned in this article:
Configuring disks to use VMware Paravirtual SCSI (PVSCSI) adapters (1010398)
VMware Knowledge Base
But here they keep mentioning using VSphere, but I can't connect to this ESXi 6.5 host with VSphere. So I tried to work my way through the step by step instructions in this article using the Web Based ESXi configuration tools. The part I'm having a problem with is on Step 2 under "To configure an existing Windows boot disk to use a PVSCSI adapter. When I create a new disk, it doesn't give me an option on what SCSI controller to which I can connect it. Has anyone else had success doing this in the ESXi 6.5 guest settings tool?
Please help, thanks.
