Cannot see VMFS storage from Virtual Center

[dmogan]

Hello,

We recently added several new LUNs to our ESX servers.

Using esxcfg-rescan successfully picked up the new LUNs and they are now formatted VMFS and visible/accessible from all of the ESX servers.

The problem is that I cannot see the new storage in Virtual Center. I can only see the previously exsiting storage.

Is there anyway to force VC to refresh host information so that I can select this new storage when deploying VMs.

Thanks for your help.

You can go into the VC server, select a host and go to Configuration, Storage Adapters and do a Rescan for LUNs and VMFS volumes. You can also go to Configuration, Storage and click Refresh. If that dopes not work you can try restarting the VC server service.
