Datastore creating problem.

[shyfur]

Hello friends,

Can anyone please help me out from this problem. I can not create datastore from visible LUN. ESXi version is 5.1 The error I am getting is
“Call "HostDatastoreSystem.CreateVmfsDatastore" for object "ha-datastoresystem" on ESXi "XxXxx" failed.

Operation failed, diagnostics report:  Unable to create Filesystem, please see VMkernel log for more details: Function not implemented”

I have tried with several procedure but still getting the same error. Listed below my procedure

1. dd to clear partition tables on the san disks from ESXi console
2. partedutil to remove and clear disk partition tables (GPT to MS-DOS) on the san disks from ESXi console.
3. disable VT-d from server BIOS
4. disable storage hardware acceleration from advance settings
5. Install customized ESXi for HP
6. Apply ESXi latest Patch on the System (1881737)
7. To test SAN storage, we install Redhat Linux test basis and visible LUNs and able to create ext4 file systems.

Waiting for your help.

The ways you tried for wiping out the volume should have worked for you but it seems it did not.
