Hi,

1. Hope you have already got SAN LUN allocated along with WWPN details. please contact SAN team for this info.

2. Make sure HBA Card installed on Dell Server is configured for SAN bootable at BIOS level

3. Go to below URL to get the installation instruction for ESXi 5.1 document Name: vSphere Installation and Setup Guide http://www.vmware.com/support/pubs/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-pubs.html
