This should be possible, but I'd highly recommend to use the Dell SAS controllers for the connectivity. Also; be sure to stay with vSphere 4.1 as 5.x is not supported with the MD3000 (it may or may not work, but a full production environment should probably be a setup that is considered 'validated').
Hi  I am upgrading to a new server system. I would like to move my MD3000 box from an old Dell server to Fujitsu system that will have VMware installed. If I create storage VM and attach my MD3000 box to the new system will I be able to connect to my data ok? Any advice on the move would be appreciated. Thanks
