Description

You cannot specify root disk controller when creating a vm because it throws in this section of code starting here:

https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/blob/250c47eb62f51357a68394bc2f73e5d66af49f77/server/src/com/cloud/vm/UserVmManagerImpl.java#L3623

                for (String key : customParameters.keySet()) {
                    //handle double byte strings.
                    vm.setDetail(key, Integer.toString(Integer.parseInt(customParameters.get(key))));
                }

Since the value "scsi" is non-numeric, this throws an exception when passed.
