Re: [Users] info on virtio-scsi

For pre-existing VMs you have to enable it in the VM-Edit dialog first. Edit VM - Show Adv. Options - Resource Alloc. - Virtio-SCSI Enabled After that step you can change your disk from IDE/Virtio to Virtio-SCSI -----Original message-----

Actually I don't think so. I have tried creating a new rh el 6.x x86_64 vm and at disk creation I do see virtio-scsi as an option. But for this preexisting VM I don't see it when I try to add. Tried both in powered on state and in powered off.

daniel - maybe the disk edit dialog should hint about this action needed?

The described scenario indeed exposes a confusing situation that affects upgrading oVirt 3.3.0 to 3.3.1 - as the new flag has been added into 3.3.1 and is true by default. So either a hint in the disk dialog or the VM dialog when upgrading cluster version.
