| SSH to esxi host | |
| Run lspci|grep Wells | |
| Which should give two lines similar to: | |
| 0000:00:11.4 Mass storage controller: Intel Corporation Wellsburg AHCI Controller [vmhba0] | |
| 0000:00:1f.2 Mass storage controller: Intel Corporation Wellsburg AHCI Controller [vmhba1] | |
| Run lspci -n|grep vmhba | |
| Will give you two lines like: | |
| 0000:00:11.4 Class 0106: 8086:8d62 [vmhba0] | |
| 0000:00:1f.2 Class 0106: 8086:8d02 [vmhba1] | |
| Find out which of the two controllers you want to pass through | |
| Add a line to /etc/vmware/passthu.map | |
| # INTEL Wellsburg AHCI #vmhba0 | |
| 8086 8d62 d3d0 false | |
| or | |
| 8086 8d02 d3d0 false #vmhba1 | |
| Reboot the server and you should be able to enable passthough on the controller you added to the passthough.map |

You are correct :-) its my typical - its hard to spell stuff wrong gene.
Perfect - thanks. FWIW, this all seems to be fine with ESXi 6.7 U3 and suspect the 7.0 will be no issue as well.
