Microsoft Hypervisor: Can we map LUNs directly to VM like VMWare RDM using HyperV's Virtual Fibre Channel Feature?

Solution 1:

You should be able to do that. Good guide here:

I'd still leave all the storage mgmt to hypervisor and deal with VHDX only. With shared VHDX, and major improvements around it in WS2016 you don't need raw access to FC anymore. IMHO.

Solution 2:

That's exactly what Virtual FC Ports do. You give the VM some World Wide Names. You unmask the LUNs to those WWNs. Then they show up in the VM. They do not show up in the host, which has different WWNs.
