Sun X7-2 Raid seen as ATA during ESXi installation

  • 1.  Sun X7-2 Raid seen as ATA during ESXi installation

    Good morniing,

    I'm currently trying to install ESXi 6.7 on a Sun X7-2.

    The server has 2 SSD disks, on a controller, and 4 HDD disks on another.

    From the BIOS I've configured the RAID1 for the SSD disks, following Oracle's guide (https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E72463_01/html/E72440/grobi.html)

    I've also configured a RAID5 on the 4 HDDs

    When I start VMware hypervisor's installation, the RAID is seen as 2 ATA drives (yes, I'm sure to have set SATA as RAID), the RAID5 is correctly seen...

    I've tried with 6.5, same issue.

    Does anyone has an idea to fix it ?
