Add SCSI Controllers in the VMware Host Client
You can add SCSI controllers to an existing virtual machine by adding hard disks on unused SCSI Bus
numbers.
Adding a new hard disk on an unused SCSI Bus number creates a new SCSI controller.
Prerequisites
Power o the virtual machine.
Procedure
1 Click Virtual Machines in the VMware Host Client inventory.
2 Right-click a virtual machine in the list and select Edit  from the pop-up menu.
3 On the Virtual Hardware tab, select Add hard disk and select New hard disk from the drop-down
menu.
4 Expand the hard disk to view all options.
5 In the Virtual Device Node section, select an unused SCSI Bus number from the drop-down menu.
For example, bus and device numbers 0:0 - 0:15 are used by the initial SCSI controller. The second SCSI
controller uses bus and device numbers 1:0 - 1:15.
6 Click Save.
The new hard disk and new SCSI controller are simultaneously created.
Change the SCSI Bus Sharing Configuration in the VMware Host Client
You can set the type of SCSI bus sharing for a virtual machine and indicate whether to share the SCSI bus.
Depending on the type of sharing, virtual machines can access the same virtual disk simultaneously on the
same server or on any server.
You can change the SCSI controller conguration for a virtual machine only if the virtual machine is on an
ESXi host.
