Not alot of information there. This is the best i got. This is written for windows server but it still applies...just accordingly for ESX.

No error messages in the VI Client / Virtual Center? I would check the Server Logs as well.

Look at this post.

I had this issue with a cluster earlier this year, one node would see the disks, but the other node would not. I needed to allow ESX to resignature the LUN so both nodes would recognize it. I think this may be your best bet.

Hello everyone,

I finally found my problem. The problem was that the server thathosted the esx 3.5 was reused for a Windows 2003 server thathas taken possession of the disc and changed the MBR disks ...vmware support team has corrected the problem.

thank you all
