I recently upgraded hardware from plain box to Dell T600 RDM's.
So I have no option but to reconfigure this RDM's because device paths are different in new hardware but it's strange that I am not able to add RDM with disk size larger than 2TB.
[:~] vmkfstools -r /vmfs/devices/disks/naa.5000c5007c63caf9 /vmfs/volumes/folder/rdm-filename.vmdk
Failed to create virtual disk: The destination file system does not support large files (12).
I am not VMWare expert and using this as home lab and remember it worked using either of option -r or -z
vmkfstools -r /vmfs/devices/disks/t10.ATA_____ST3000DM0012D1ER166__________________________________W500AZ0J /vmfs/volumes/folder/rdm-filename.vmdk
I have another 1 TB hard drive but it worked with -z as it's less than 2TB.
I am using this RDM virtual disk for FREENAS and attached screen shots for what drive looks like in ESXi devices.
I hope it shouldn't be a problem adding existing FREENAS drive as RDM?
Any help will be much appreciated and thanks a lot in advance...
