Can EVS Disks Be Attached to BMSs? How Many Data Disks Can Be Attached to a BMS?

Yes. Ultra-high I/O, general purpose SSD, high I/O, and common I/O (previous generation) EVS disks can be attached to BMSs. However, some BMSs support only local disks and EVS disks cannot be attached to them. In this case, you are not allowed to add an EVS disk when creating a BMS.

A maximum of 60 data disks can be attached to a BMS.

If you need to attach an EVS disk to an existing BMS, Device Type of the EVS disk must be SCSI. If you need to create an EVS disk and attach it to the BMS, you must select SCSI in Advanced Settings when you create the EVS disk.
