External virtual storage device configuration.

These sections are used for virtual machine configurations that support the external (although not necessarily physically) SCSI controller, such as the Sun Enterprise 450.  

...devices are named scsix_...

...numbered 0 - 15

...same options as scsi_n

...include and example with couple cdroms and a disk

...also mention that id 7 is off limits...

This section is used for virtual machine configurations where there are multiple Ethernet controllers.  The properties are the same as those described in the [ethernet] Section.  However, the section naming is slightly different in that the names are suffixed with an underscore and the controller number.

The configuration example below demonstrates the configuration of two virtual Ethernet adapters.
