4. Attach the virtual disk to the VM as a SCSI device. Go into the VM settings, and add a
SCSI controller by clicking Add Hardware in the left pane of the Settings window for
your VM.

Creating a New VM Using Pass-through Disks Only
This section shows you how to create a VM using pass-through disks only. You can boot from a pass-
through device, but you need a regular virtual disk on which to store the configuration data for the VM.
In the example, three virtual disks were created on the MD32X0, MD32X0i, or MD36X0i storage array.
Figure 9 shows a boot disk for the operating system of the VM, a data disk, and a 1-GB disk for the VM's
configuration.

1. Map the BOOTVM3PASSTHROUGH, VMPASSTHROUGHDISK1, and the
VMPASSTHROUGH_CONFIG to the host.
2. Create a partition on the 1GB VM3PASSTHROUGH_CONFIG, and format it with a file
system.
The other two disks remain offline.
3. Using the New Virtual Machine Wizard, go to the Hyper-V configuration, and create a
new VM.
