1196+ **Recommendations for UEFI-based instances on KVM (volumes and NICs) **
1197+
1198+ UEFI-based instances on KVM may encounter PCI slot exhaustion when attaching additional
1199+ volumes or network interfaces, due to high PCI device usage from the default
1200+ disk bus and NIC adapter selections. To avoid these issues:
1201+
1202+ - **Disk bus **: For Linux-based UEFI guests, it is recommended to use **SCSI ** as
1203+ the guest disk bus instead of VIRTIO. This reduces PCI device usage and improves
1204+ support for attaching additional volumes.
1205+ - **NIC adapter **: Set the NIC adapter type to **e1000 ** for UEFI instances to avoid
1206+ NIC attachment issues caused by PCI slot exhaustion.
1207+
1208+ Both of these settings can be configured in the **VM Settings ** for an instance.
