Creating RDM associated with a LUN on the SAN

  • 1.  Creating RDM associated with a LUN on the SAN

    Posted Nov 26, 2013 04:34 PM

    Hi all,

    I'm asked to move machines from one ESXi to others without moving disks that reside on the NAS. The link between the virtual disk and the iSCSI target is a RDM file.

    I'd like to do this from the command line of the VMhost.

    I found this

    http://serverfault.com/questions/105652/assign-and-remove-multiple-luns-from-vms-on-esxi-4

    Is it still valid?

    Basically what I understand is that I have to use vmkfstools and once I have the filename I can refer to it in the vmx file, am I right?

    Thanks Alex
