  Problem Description:
  =============
  - I setup my Boston LC system to run with Ubuntu 18.04

  - I tried to test out Samsung PM1725a NVMe 1.6TB and .8 TB disk drives
  on Boston LC system.

  - The disk drive plugged good into the system. However, after boot the
  system did not see the disk.

  - I tried with both Samsung PM1725a NVMe 1.6TB and with .8TB disk
  drives and none of them show up.

  - This disk type plan to supporte in Boston LC system so if the system
  does not recognize it then it is an issue.

  - I checked with Joe W. my team lead and he told me to open github
  issue for further investigation.

  - If the disk is recognized then it will be
  pci-0003:01:00.0-scsi-0:2:3:0 -> ../../sdd but it's not.

  You need to install NMVE HBA in your machine

  == Comment: #3 - Application Cdeadmin 
  ------- Comment From nguyenp1 2018-01-26 15:35:40 EDT -------
  - I have NVME HBA adapter installed in the system and 2 Samsung PM1725a NVMe 
1.6TB and .8 TB disk drives  in the system.  The adapter and nvme drives show 
correctly.

  - However, the "ls -l /dev/disk/by-path" command did not show any nvme 
drives.  So it's new issue with 
  Ubuntu 18.04.  Without the PCI path the nvme disks can not be assigned to KVM 
guest.

  I checked with Dac Nguyen and he told me his system also has this problem. 
The "ls -l /dev/disk/by-path" does not display any NVME drives.  Without the 
PCI path the nvme disks can not be assigned to KVM guest. So this problem need 
to be further investigate.

  - I'm gathering sosreport and attach it to the bugzilla.

  == Comment: #5 - Paul Nguyen 
  Attached sosreport in bugzilla for Linux team to look at the problem.
