I think, you mean to mount additional LUN to ESXi box so that you can add these LUNs as datastore on ESXi.

Once the Storage(NFS/ISCSI/FC) is presented to your ESXi from the Storage level, you could follow the below steps in the KB to add the SAN to your esxi.

VMware vSphere 5.1

If still you are looking for something else, please elaborate your requirement.
