Hi I have a western digital mybook 1TB that I have formatted as VMFS3. I would like to use this as another datastore in ESXi 4.0. When I run the following command:
vmkfstools -C vmfs3 -S edatastore1 /dev/disks/mpx.vmhba38\:C0\:T0\:L0\:1
It fails and says:
Creating vmfs3 file system on "mpx.vmhba38:C0:T0:L0:1" with blockSize 1048576 and volume label "edatastore1".
Usage: vmkfstools -C vmfs3 /vmfs/devices/disks/vml... or,
vmkfstools -C vmfs3 /vmfs/devices/disks/naa... or,
vmkfstools -C vmfs3 /vmfs/devices/disks/mpx.vmhbaA:T:L:P
Error: vmkfstools failed: vmkernel is not loaded or call not implemented.
Can anyone help?
thanks
