Hello @NFI_in_VM ,

Please share the screenshot of the LUN status on the Esxi. If only the datastore is unmounted but LUN is connected then we can right click on Datastore and mount it back. 

For LUN in disconnected/ Offline state we can try rescanning all HBAs 1-2 times and if the LUN does not shows connected still then I suspect that the LUN has gone into inaccessible state and requires a reboot. 

For the orphaned VM issue, Is the VM on same Esxi host and same Datastore which is inaccessible? If yes then its expected behaviour. 

For fixing both issues we need to get on zoom call and fix it. It will take 30 mins to fix both the issue.

First check why host is not pingable , from vcenter server

try to restart management agent from DCUI

then try to connect host if it not work only way to reboot the host.
