Anybody know if it is possible to configure the virutal disks to be on a different scsi bus?? I can change the ID but not the bus...

As I want Windows 2k to think the disk is external for setting up a cluster... (also could it be configured to share the disk?)

So if I follow this correctly..

You have a virtual disk configured from physical drives on a internal SCSI bus and you want to make W2K think that the Virtual drive is on the external bus..?

My immediate reaction is that your on a loser 'cos I can't see how you'd do it, but that doesn't mean that it can't be done.

I have windows 2000 as host os on my machine with 2 internal ata100 drives... i have two guest machines with windows 2000 configured with virtual disks (file based) and these pretend to by scsi in vmware (default) I can change the ID but the bus option is unavailable... as I want to set it to think these are external so that I can install ms cluster support..
