If you have the issue that you are not able to (re-)attach a raw device/hard drive to a virtual machine, this might be due to an unsupported or internal controller. Internal controllers have this functionality disabled by default. "Local storage devices often do not support VPD page 0x83, and thus cannot be used for Raw Device Mappings (RDMs). The content of page 0x83 is used as a unique identifier for the device."

1. Identify the disk name (all from console).
# ls -l /vmfs/devices/disks | cat t10
Look for the hdd identifier like t10.F405E46494C4540046F4123456ABCDEFG41707D203F45765
2. Enable the disk.
# vmkfstools -z /vmfs/devices/disks/diskname /vmfs/volumes/datastorename/vmfolder/vmname.vmdk
Note that datastorename/vmfolder must be an existing datastore and VMWare.
Now you can add the disk as "Existing virtual disk".

Good Luck.
