Coverage of vsphere6.7 installation, how to restore data?

[bloyok]

When I install vsphere6.7, there is no upgrade option installed directly. After that, the data of the hard disk is gone. Is it possible to recover? How to operate?

Thank you.

Hi,

Are you talking about a first time install on  server or you would want to upgrade an existing installation?

could you send screen shots?

Thank you.

It has been installed on the server and lost all data on one disk. Now I want to restore the data. Is there any way? Thank you

Previously installed vsphere6, this time I want to update to 6.7, and the result is covered and installed. I want to retrieve the virtual machine file. Thank you

What type of RAID do you have on the disks?

[bloyok]

No RAID

It might have overwritten the VMFS datastore with a new one in which case a recovery is unlikely. Your best bet is to restore from backup (which surely you have, right?).

备份是早期的，缺少一些数据。我试试吧，谢谢。

Backup is early and lacks some data. Let me try it. Thank you.
