Hi André I see what, seems to have happened I originally name these DataStores HDD_DISK_VOL and SSD_DISK_VOL and were able to mount them. I then changed their names to DataSore_SSD and DataStore_HDD... See more...
Hi André I see what, seems to have happened I originally name these DataStores HDD_DISK_VOL and SSD_DISK_VOL and were able to mount them. I then changed their names to DataSore_SSD and DataStore_HDD to conform to our other Server Naming Convention. As these data stored no longer exist (With their name change) I assume I need to remove these Snapshots and mount the new Disk Names?

Thanks André The ESXI was preinstalled with the system These are the DataStore_SSD and DataStore_HDD respectively. No sure why there are two files for each DataStore and why there are slightly different in size. What does the :1 mean at the end of the LUN?

Hello, I have recently received two Lenovo SR650 servers both with M.2 discs and ESXi 7.0. I am having difficulty seeing the two data stores defined below in XClarity when trying to add them in ESXi 7.0 and they do not seem to be available as shown in the following screen shot. I have tried deleting them in XCLARITY and recreated them with different named but have had no joy     I have even tried navigating in the CLI and seen that the two DataStores seem available so I am not sure why the “New  DataStore” wizard cannot see them or what I need to do to try to access and configure them in ESXi 7.0     SERVER ONE         SERVER TWO     Any assistance would be most grateful.
