I'm running an esxi 6 host on my Dell poweredge 2950 G2 with perc5i raid controller. Running 4 2TB WD disks in raid5 (storage) and one singel disk as system disk and VM.
It's been running for several years with esxi 4-5-6 with no problems.
No suddenly I'm not able to boot up the system.
The boot stops on "nfs4client loaded successfully"
If i then his F1 I get a list of errors I dont realy understand:
StorageInfolmpl: Discovery failed (Retrying)
Not all luns may be visible
StorageInfo: Unabke to name LUN mpx.vmhba32:C0:TO:LO. Cannon set display name on this device. Unable to guarantee name will not change across reboots or media change.

If I hit F12 I get:

Is there any hope to get this up and running ?
If not, is there a way to extract some of the data without sending the disk to a spesial company.. ?
