In the APIs, allowed root or data disk controller options are:
ide,
scsi,
osdefault,
lsilogic,
lsisas1068,
buslogic,
pvscsi
Test cases:
1. VMware disk controller options for both VMs and templates:
(a) Register an OVA template for VMware with a rootdisk controller selected
from the dropdown, and deploy a VM. Check in vCenter that in the VM's
properties the disk controller matches the one you had selected while
registering the template. Test updating and deploying a new VM using the update
template command, example:
> update template details[0].rootDiskController=lsilogicsas
id=some-uuid
(b) Deploy a Virtual Machine via cloudmonkey, passing rootDiskController
detail. And, after the VM is launched check if diskcontroller on vCenter side
matches the one being configured. For example:
> deploy virtualmachine details[0].rootDiskController=lsilogicsas
templateid=some-thing zoneid=so-me-uuid
(c) Stop a VM, and run update virtualmachine API to update its
rootDiskController detail. Start the VM, and check if the update disk
controller matches the disk controller property on the vCenter side.
CloudMonkey example:
> update virtualmachine id=some-uuid
details[0].rootDiskController=lsilogicsas
2. Recommended regression testing: Test disk lifecycles (create/allocated,
attach/detach, remove, take snapshot, use snapshot to create template, download
volume), Test VM lifecycles (deploy, start, stop, update, restart, destroy),
Test template lifecycles (register, download, update template, copy template
across zones).

> When adding an OVA template for a vSphere environment allow the selection of
> the scsi controller type.
> Currently the instances are deployed with the the LSI Parallel controller
> type. This results in a blue screen on boot when attempting to deploy
> templates that use the LSI SAS controller.
