Datastore not showing in device list 6.5 U3

[hillbilly1900]

The associated LUN is listed when viewing at the storage adapter level, however, when I try to increase the Datastore, the LUN is not listed in the device list.

Welcome to the Community,

please explain as detailed as possible how your current storage/datastore configuration looks like, and what exactly you are trying to do. Maybe some screenshots will help.

Are you trying to add a new LUN as an extent to an existing datastore? That's something I'd really not recommend anymore. This was the way to increase the size of a datatore in the old times, when ~2TB was the maximum supported LUN size.
