Am I missing something here. Its not so much that you cant install esx, its that rhel wont see any storage right?
If you had hcl issues ESX would complain about not being able to finish its install. Fwiw I have 3 2550's in my test esx lab and they work fine. So if you open the vi client does the vmfs volume for your local storage show up under the configuration/storage area? How big is it? -----Original Message----- From: Benjamin Zachary - Lists [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 29, 2008 11:51 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: VMware ESXi 3.5 On Dell 2550 Okay, maybe perc4 is as far back as it goes.

Only gets as far as partitioning the disks. When it can find any, the installation aborts. -----Original Message----- From: Benjamin Zachary - Lists [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday October 2008 12:10 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Bayesian Filter detected spam - RE: VMware ESXi 3.5 On Dell 2550 When the install completes do you have available storage? Im surprised you get through the installation but then get a message like that. IIRC all PERC controllers are listed in the HCL. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ************************************************************************ The information in this internet E-mail is confidential and is intended solely for the addressee.
