VM's storage device count exceeds the supported maximum.

VM's storage device count exceeds the supported maximum.

We are getting these errors, but the cmd seems to work anyway. Can we change the storage device count? What is the maximum amount supported?

+ hpvmmodify -P ######## -a disk:scsi::disk:/dev/rdsk/c6t0d0
HPVM guest ######## configuration problems:

Re: VM's storage device count exceeds the supported maximum.

How many device to you think you specified?

Check out:

http://docs.hp.com/en/T2767-90067/ch07s02.html#guest_storage_spec

It suggests:

"A virtual machine can have up to 30 devices total (number of virtual and attached devices)."

It also mentions a max PCI bus 0 - 6


Hope this helps some,
