Considerations for the Virtual Storage

You can assign physical storage to a VM in various ways. For an out-of-band PowerVault MD32X0,
MD32X0i, or MD36X0i storage array, you have these options:
•
Assign the virtual disk to the parent server, and create a file system and a virtual hard
drive (VHD) for the VM.
•
Assign an unformatted, pass-through physical disk directly to the VM.
With the MD32X0i and MD36X0i storage array, you also can assign a physical disk directly to the VM by
installing the iSCSI software initiator on the VM similarly as you would on a physical server.
