All these 20 disks are qcow2 formatted .. I have created these qcow2 format disks on the nfs mounted directory.
So different issue exists with parted -l also ..

  disks available

  Classification the type of defect:
  ==================================

    DEFECT :distro
    TYPE OF DEFECT:Ubuntu 14.04

  Description of the defect: [[ Guest VM does not list all  scsi disks
  in "fdisk -l" .

  1. Installed the Ubuntu Guest with 20 scsi disks ( qcow2 formatted ,
  5G each , These disks are present on the nfs mount )

  # uname -a
  Linux ubuntu 3.13.0-23-generic #45-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 4 06:58:01 UTC 2014 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux
  # ppc64_cpu --smt
  SMT is on

  2.  fdisk -l doesnt list all the disks .. It lists from sda till sdh (
  8 disks) . whereas sdi till sdu arent listed. All the disks are
  created on the nfs mount point.

  root at ubuntu:/dev# fdisk -l
  The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 20480.
  This is larger than 1024, and may cause problems with:
  1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., LILO)
  2) booting and partitioning software form other OSs
     (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
