were there any requirements for RDM's in ESX 3.5? I have tried connecting an FC disk, and an iSCSI disk, but when you try to add the RDM to a VM the RDM box was grey'd out....
I'm struggling to remember having to do anything particular for this...
I'm not trying to do NPIV, I'm just trying to give an ESX 3.5 U2 server a new LUN, then want that LUN attached to a VM...
Did you scan the HBA adpators after adding the FC storage to esx host. If you have rescaned then verify whether lun is showing up in the storage adaptor?
Thanks
Pranab
Yeah, the lun is there ok.
