all the VMs become orphan after reboot ESXi 6.5

[kho1979]

Hi, I have discovered all the VMs (previously registered) to my host suddenly disappeared after I had rebooted the machine with the host. Is there any ways i can recovered back these VMs?

Thank you

Orphan means that the VM's in the inventory have no access to the VM's files/folders.
Please check whether the backing datastore is available to the host, and the VM's files/folders are accessible.
Is it a local datastore, or one on shared storage? please provide some more details that may help identifying what's causing the issue.
