VMFS datastore creating one same LUN not listing in all the shared ESXi hosts

 

Issue:

Create a Storage LUN/Volume.

Share or export this to multiple ESXi hosts.

Create Datastore from one of the ESXi host.

When you rescan the storage from other ESXi hosts, the existing VMFS datastore is not listed.


Solution:


Log in to the ESXi host and list the volumes:

 >>esxcfg-volume -l

Mount the volume in the ESXi host:

>>esxcfg-volume -m "DatastoreName"
