I had the IBM ServeRAID M1015 running OK with ESXi 5.1 until an extended power failure that outlasted the UPS backup. The ESXi 5.1 on a USB got corrupted so I decided to install fresh using ESXi 6.5.
THe install went OK and I was able to get my other VMs going but the one that used the IBM ServeRAID M1015 is having the following error and won't start:
The systemId does not match the current system or the deviceId, and the vendorId does not match the device currently at 2:0.0.
I've read many posts and used Google but I don't seem to be able to figure out what is wrong. I think the deviceID and vendorID are OK.

Clik here to view.
From the VM settings:
lspci -v gives:
0000:02:00.0 Serial Attached SCSI controller Mass storage controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic LSI2008 [vmhba1]
Class 0107: 1000:0072
The esx.conf shows:
/device/00000:002:00.0/owner = "passthru"
/device/00000:002:00.0/device = "72"
/device/00000:002:00.0/vendor = "1000"
/device/00000:002:00.0/vmkname = "vmhba1"
The VM.vmx shows:
pciPassthru0.deviceId = "0072"
pciPassthru0.vendorId = "1000"
pciPassthru0.systemId = "508e907b-f95c-2f44-9df2-6470021053df"
pciPassthru0.id = "02:00.0"
pciPassthru0.pciSlotNumber = "160"
I think the system ID is from: /vmfs/volumes/50901e07-4bc606a0-29b7-6470021053df/
The esx.conf, VM.vmx now all show 0x72; 0x1000 but the VM won't start.
Yes, the IBM ServeRAID M1015 is certified to work on 6.5.
What have I missed? What should I be doing next?
Thank you in advance.
