My server is as follows
Intel Xeon E3-1230V2
Asus P8BWS
2 120GB SSD (intended to run them in Raid 0 but ESXi isn't letting me)
EVGA 560 2GB
Intel Pro/1000 MT Dual Port
Highpoint Rocketraid 3560
I would like to use ESXi for the device pass through so that I can use the webgui in WHS2011 VM to monitor the raid controller.
I would also like to be able to pass through 1-2 USB devices and the EVGA 560 to Win7 Pro for gaming.
But ESXi doesn't see the raid controller with default install.
Am I going to have to use another Virtualization option? What about Linux and using virtualization in it?
I tried Hyper-V Server (not Windows server with the Hyper-V Role but the stand alone CLI Hyper-V server), but I could not get remote management to work nor could I find any decent documentation on it for creating and running VM's.
Any help is much appreciated.
