There are several ways to get HBA WWNs on VMware vSphere ESX/ESXi host:

An unknown device will feature a small warning triangle overlaying the device-type icon. If Windows thinks a device is broken or non-responsive, you'll see a red icon overlay, instead. If you discover a warning, install the correct driver before updating by right-clicking the unknown device. Drivers Catalog ⇒ Port Devices ⇒ INRO Elektrotechnik ⇒ Incado Virtual COM Port (COM7) Drivers Installer for Incado Virtual COM Port (COM7) If you don’t want to waste time on hunting after the needed driver for your PC, feel free to use a dedicated self-acting installer. The lights don't come on to indicate it is charging, Motioninjoy can't see it, and Windows doesn't have any indication that it is plugged in. Changing USB ports or cords doesn't help. Using a different controller doesn't help. The USB port works fine with other USB items. The controller works fine when plugged into a different computer.
