virt-install rejects device type "lun"

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

Goal is to create KVM guest with scsi pass-through, so that the storage devices show up with the vendor string and raw SCSI commands are passed to storage devices . KVM documentation lists a combination of "bus=scsi" and "device=lun" to achieve this.

virt-install accepts the "bus=scsi" specification but rejects "device=lun".
