Old datastore

[stray_guru]

hello

I have old datastore which I wanted to mount in new hypervisor installation. Unfortunately I can see disk and partition but cant mount it. Any idea?

it's also strange that now I can't use datastore under old hypervisor too ;(

ls /dev/disks -lh

mm.. seems that you are confusing some things.

Check the volumes first with: esxcli storage filesystem list

Then try to mount it with the volume's label: esxcli storage filesystem mount--volume-label=<label>
