Determining SCSI Target IDs
In order to assign SCSI drives to a virtual machine, you need to know which controller
the drive is on and what the SCSI target ID of the controller is. This section can help
you determine these values without opening your computer and physically looking at
the SCSI target ID settings on the drives.
On a standard Linux system, or for a VMware Console Operating System that has SCSI
controllers assigned to the console operating system rather than the VMkernel,
information on attached SCSI devices, including SCSI target IDs is available in the boot
log (usually /var/log/messages), or from examining /proc/scsi/scsi.
Information about the SCSI controllers assigned to the VMkernel and about the
devices attached to these controllers is available in the /proc/vmware/scsi
directory once the VMkernel and the VMkernel device module(s) for the SCSI
controller(s) have been loaded.
Each entry in the /proc/vmware/scsi directory corresponds to a SCSI controller
assigned to the VMkernel. For example, assume you issued a vmkload_mod
command with the base name vmhba and a single SCSI controller was found. To
identify the controller, type this command:
ls -l /proc/vmware/scsi
The output of the ls command is:
total 0
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jun 22 12:44 vmhba0
Each SCSI controller's subdirectory contains entries for the SCSI devices on that
controller, numbered by SCSI target ID and LUN (logical unit number). Run cat on
each target ID:LUN pair to get information about the device with that target ID and
LUN. For example, type this command:
cat /proc/vmware/scsi/vmhba0/1:0
