local datastore accidentally deleted

Hello

After installing a fresh ESX 5 hosts with empty local datastores, i have accidentally deleted the wrong local datastore (vmfs5).

the host is configure to use this local datastore to host VM vswap.

this disk is still listed in the host peripherals (local dell disk naa.6a4badb00abd9d0016b521a70bfd8c24), but i can't add the disk as a datastore.

error message : either the disk has already a vmfs datastore, either the host can't do a partition table conversion

do i need to reinstall my host ?

Thanks
