Creating VMFS on multiple internal SCSI disks

[jerryz]

Running ESX 3.5 inside WS 6.5 on Vista 64. I'm trying to create data stores on multiple internal drives (drive 😧 and G:) but I can't seem to figure out how to tell ESX which drive or path to use. How do I get ESX to create a datastore on a particular drive?

Thanks.

A simple way is create two vmdk (SCSI based) disks and add to your ESX.

Andrethegiant,

Thanks.

The issue was that I couldn't figure out where in the vmdk creation process I set the path. I just figured out that I do this in the "Specifiy Disk File" screen.

Just edit VM properties, add new disk, and browse in a different folder.

Yep. Done.

Thanks again.
