<h4>SCSI controller models</h4>

+ <dd>
+ This isn't a actual controller model. If specified the ESX driver
+ tries to detect the SCSI controller model referenced in the
+ <code>.vmdk</code> file and use it. Autodetection fails when a
+ SCSI controller has multiple disks attached and the SCSI controller
+ models referenced in the <code>.vmdk</code> files are inconsistent.
