Re: Adding new SCSI controller: "Fault string: Invalid operation for device '0'."

I finally found a solution.

It seems it fails if you give some parameter marked as mandatory (scsiCtlrUnitNumber, hotAddRemove)... Theses parameters seem to be automatically defined, a dump of the device will show that.

Here is the code used:

my $controller_spec =

                VirtualDeviceConfigSpec->new(   device => VirtualLsiLogicController->new(       key => 0,

                                        device => [0],

                                        busNumber => $scsi_controller,

                                        sharedBus => VirtualSCSISharing->new('noSharing')),

                                operation => VirtualDeviceConfigSpecOperation->new( 'add' ) );

        my $vmspec = VirtualMachineConfigSpec->new(deviceChange => [$controller_spec] );

        eval {

                $vm_view->ReconfigVM( spec => $vmspec );

        };
