We've started using Ansible to automate some VM builds within some of our 
environments.  For one of our builds, we have a VM which has about 20 
disks.  When using vmware_guest, if we add all 20 disks, the task bombs 
with:

fatal: [127.0.0.1]: FAILED! => {"changed": true, "failed": true, "msg": "A 
specified parameter was not correct: unitNumber"}

If we comment out 5 of the disks (VM would have 15), the task will succeed. 
 

This leads me to believe that the vmware_guest module will not 
automatically add another scsi controller (1:0) and start adding disks to 
that once the limit for the first controller has been reached.

We've also tried using vsphere_guest, with something like:

    vm_extra_config:
      scsi1.present: true
      scsi1.sharedBus: none
      scsi1.virtualDev: pvscsi

To try and add that second device to the VMX file.  The VM builds, but it 
doesn't have the extra controller.

Has anyone come across this before?
