Hi, I  have a physical Raw Device Mapping  to one of our VM's which I  have  removed and deleted, I wish now to use this space on another VM  however  after I remove the disk from the VM the esx host nor any of the  VM can  see the lun. The  only thing it will allow me to do is "use an existing disk" and I  can  select the pointer_1.vmdx file and the disk with all the data  appears  which I thought I had deleted. Can  anyone advise what could be causing this issue? Basically I want  to  remove the Raw Device Mapping and be able to use this disk  somewhere  else such as ro add addtional storage to our esx hosts. Any help will be very much appreciated. Many thanks Nick
