SCSI addresses under VMware are not consistent and sometimes change when a RHEL guest is rebooted
Issue
- The Host:Channel:Target:Lun numbers do not align and behave as I would expect when I add a new disk to a VMware guest.
- After rebooting my RHEL guest, the SCSI addressing is not persistent, sometimes it changes
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 as a VMware guest
- VMware server
