Add virtual hard disk??

Hi all,

I already created Sysprepd Windows 2003 OS VHD (16GB and Drive C). With
Hyper-V, I am creating VM which links to this OS VHD which is Drive C. But,
this VM needs lots of drives (such as D, E, F, G). How should I create these
drives? (SAN storage). Create seperate empty virtual hard disk?

(Windows 2008 X64 Enterprise and Hyper-V)

Thank you!

Re: Add virtual hard disk??

Yes, just provision additional LUNs and present them to the Physical host(s)
and use the volume GUID of each disk to attach to additional SCSI
controllers in the VM.
