I am having a problem where I can not add more than 1 physical disk per scsi controller on a Gen2 2012R2 guest. Unfortunately I need to add 14 drives for the pool. The machine start gets to 10% and just stops. It retry s 2-3 times and quits. Probably would not be a problem to me if they were not the pool drives. I have tried googling this issue and found nothing (Not that I seen anyways). Any suggestions would be great.
edit
On a side note, if I create a gen1 machine and create an IDE drive for the os and attach all the physical drives as SCSI everything seems to work. I can do this and will if I cant figure it out as I dont think there is any performance hit gen1 to gen2 with what I am doing...it is just driving me crazy not figuring out why it is failing like this. Another fun bit, if I add the drives while the VM is running they are all recognized and DP begins checking. As soon as the VM is reset back to the same problem.
