Creating a list view of hosts with local storage vs shared storage

Hello,

I am trying to create a view of a list of hosts with local storage.  The closest I've been able to accomplish this is to select Datastore as the Subject with Data > Properties > Summary > Is Local.  This gives me the list of all Datastores names, but not the hosts names they are mounted to.

How do I add the hosts associated with the datastores to the list?

This is in version 6.6.1 Build 6163035

You cant

All you can get is a count of hosts not the name of the hosts. The only object you can get a relationship to datastores is the VM.

You could try and use vsphere tags and add the host name to the tags but i am not sure how that would look in a view as datastores will have multiple hosts
