Templates lost in transition

We just moved our VC from one physical box to another one. One thing I noticed I'm not seeing our templates that we had, but they are still on the LUN's

From Virtual Centre, browse the datastore that contains the template.

Open the driectory containing the template files and right click on the .vmtx file. Select add to inventory from the menu.

Sorry didn't realize my question got cut off somehow. When we moved and brought the VC back online on a new box, added in the hosts and all the VM's came over to that VC, the templates are no where to be found. Is there a way to add these manually back into the VC or a way to re-scan for the VC to see them?

Add them back like you would add an orphaned system.
