Errors installing Azure HCI Stack VMware VMs

jpcapone 1,321

I am attempting to install the a 2 node Azure HCI Stack onto a ESX host using Vsphere. I found the hardware validation script to help assist with the deployment errors i was receiving on the portal. Any assistance with resolving these errors would be appreciated. I did add a virtual TPM module on each server.

I ran Invoke-AzStackHciHardwareValidation directly on the cluster nodes and received the input listed above.

Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

It seems that you're facing issues related to hardware requirements and configuration:

Review and ensure that your virtual machine configuration meets the Azure Stack HCI hardware requirements, including the number of disks, disk types, disk sizes, and TPM configuration .

Consult the VMware documentation and ensure that the virtual TPM module is properly configured and enabled on the virtual machines.

If the issues persist, you may need to contact Microsoft support or seek assistance from the VMware community for further guidance on deploying Azure Stack HCI on ESXi hosts.

I am thinking that the vm needs to be configured to present NVME or ssd drives to the OS and not scsi. but that won't help with the
