Configures the virtual machine's (VM‘s) disk bus or controller.
| vm | Specifies VMs. |
| vm_name | Specifies the name of the VM. |
| disk | Specifies disk configuration. |
| bus-type | Specifies configuring the disk bus type. |
| bus_type | Specifies the disk bus type (default is VirtIO). |
The default is VirtIO.
This command allows you to configure the VM‘s disk bus or controller. The default bus type is VirtIO, but some operating systems are do not support this, and as a consequence, the VM will fail to boot. In this case, you can configure the bus type to IDE or SCSI.
The following example configures the VM "vm1" to the bus type to IDE:
# configure vm vm1 disk bus-type IDE
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 30.7.
