Hi Jlitnyc,

"I have a VM with an attached RDM that needs to be moved to a physical host.

Has anyone tried this?"

We tried this and it works but in order to acomplish this you have to follow few steps..

I assume it is windows VM..

Take a complete backup of that specific Lun

Set the drive offline from windows disk management

Remove the lun from the vm...

From the SAN end ---Remove the lun number from the ESXi host so that they can't see the lun any more.

                               Add the lun to physical machine

Assuming the physical server iscsi initiator is already configured.You can configure the rest on the physical machine

Thanks

SA
