Datastore is in multiple datacenters

Hello

I just added two new ESXI hosts to my Vcenter

Created a new Datacenter

and new Cluster

Placed both new hosts in the new Cluster.

My Vcenter is 6.7

My new ESXI hosts are 6.0

I am getting this error on my Data stores

Datastore is in multiple datacenters

I have  6 NSF datastores that I share with my first Datacenter  and Cluster which I have 8 ESXI Hosts.

Any one know why I am getting this error?

Can I share Datastores of my DatastoreCluster  from my DataCenter 1 with my DataCenter 2 cluster hosts?

They are accessing the datastores fine it is vcenter who has an issue with this setup  am I missing a settings or setup ?

Thank you

Tom

Hi,

The datastore is shared across multiple data centers. Storage DRS is not supported on datastores that are shared across multiple data centers. This configuration can occur when a host in one data center mounts a datastore in another data center, or when a host using the datastore is moved to a different data center.. refer

Storage DRS Cannot Operate on a Datastore

NKS Please Mark Helpful/correct if my answer resolve your query.
