How to attach more than 7 virtio-scsi disks to a single kvm scsi-controller
Issue
- libvirt limits 7 disks per scsi-controller and if 8th disk is attached, It creates new scsi controller and attach it to the guest
which severely limits the number of disks that can be attached to the guest because of the limited number of pci slots. 7*24=168 disks only.
Environment
