i created, over a SSH connection to my ESXi (HP Custom 6.0 update 1), a RDM .vmdk file to a 4TB Harddrive Since i did that ,the folder in which i created the vmdk file, won't open anymore it displays "searching datastore" and it won't go any further than that but i created 3* 2TB RDM .vmdk files in the same Folder and these worked fine when i connected them to a vm then i created the other one and i cant go into the folder anymore... i hope somebody can help me
