How to make disks 0 rotational (SSD)

[Fatih Fatih]

When run lsblk in my vm

NAME TYPE ROTA

sda disk 1

sdb1 part 1

└─sdb disk 1

sdb2 part 1

└─sdb disk 1

sr0 rom 1

ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv lvm 1

└─sdb3 part 1

  └─sdb disk 1

root@serv:~# every disk is  rotational there, how can i make them not rotational and say ROTA 0? vmware treats every disk as rotational (hdd)

It should work to add 

scsiX:Y.virtualSSD = "1"

for the virtual disk that you want to present as an SSD to the guest OS in the VM's configuration (.vmx) file.

Make sure that VMware Workstation, or at least the VM's tab is closed while editing the .vmx file.

That does not work, lsblk -s -o ROTA still shows all disks rotational (1)
