Rotten mud: Add a local hard disk to esxi through vsphere

This article is first published in the dark world.

The hard disk space of the company's esxi server is insufficient. A new hard disk is added to the esxi server. After adding a hard disk to the server, you cannot see the newly added hard disk on vsphere.

Next we will use a virtual machine to simulate this situation, first add a hard disk. For example:

650) This. width = 650; "Title =" clip_image001 "style =" border-right-width: 0px; Background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-Right: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; "Border =" 0 "alt =" clip_image001 "src =" http://img1.51cto.com/attachment/201407/19/526870_14057594313Ejm.png "width =" 781 "Height =" 398 "/>

After the hard disk is added to esxi, you can use vsphere to set esxi. Connect to esxi through vsphere and select "configuration"-"Storage"-"add storage", as shown in:

650) This. width = 650; "Title =" clip_image002 "style =" border-right-width: 0px; Background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-Right: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; "Border =" 0 "alt =" clip_image002 "src =" http://img1.51cto.com/attachment/201407/19/526870_14057594328Dus.png "width =" 1200 "Height =" 416 "/>

Select "Disk/Lum" as the storage type, for example:

650) This. width = 650; "Title =" clip_image003 "style =" border-right-width: 0px; Background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-Right: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; "Border =" 0 "alt =" clip_image003 "src =" http://img1.51cto.com/attachment/201407/19/526870_1405759432vGkh.png "width =" 749 "Height =" 580 "/>

You can see the newly added hard disk, such:

650) This. width = 650; "Title =" clip_image004 "style =" border-right-width: 0px; Background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-Right: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; "Border =" 0 "alt =" clip_image004 "src =" http://img1.51cto.com/attachment/201407/19/526870_1405759432ZSv1.png "width =" 748 "Height =" 148 "/>

Select VMFS-5 for file type versions, such:

650) This. width = 650; "Title =" clip_image005 "style =" border-right-width: 0px; Background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-Right: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; "Border =" 0 "alt =" clip_image005 "src =" http://img1.51cto.com/attachment/201407/19/526870_1405759433HME6.png "width =" 752 "Height =" 589 "/>

650) This. width = 650; "Title =" clip_image006 "style =" border-right-width: 0px; Background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-Right: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; "Border =" 0 "alt =" clip_image006 "src =" http://img1.51cto.com/attachment/201407/19/526870_1405759433uYMe.png "width =" 751 "Height =" 585 "/>

Enter the name of the Newly Added Disk, for example:

650) This. width = 650; "Title =" clip_image007 "style =" border-right-width: 0px; Background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-Right: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; "Border =" 0 "alt =" clip_image007 "src =" http://img1.51cto.com/attachment/201407/19/526870_1405759434vTml.png "width =" 754 "Height =" 590 "/>

Add disk capacity, for example:

650) This. width = 650; "Title =" clip_image008 "style =" border-right-width: 0px; Background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-Right: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; "Border =" 0 "alt =" clip_image008 "src =" http://img1.51cto.com/attachment/201407/19/526870_1405759434NzAq.png "width =" 754 "Height =" 591 "/>

650) This. width = 650; "Title =" clip_image009 "style =" border-right-width: 0px; Background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-Right: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; "Border =" 0 "alt =" clip_image009 "src =" http://img1.51cto.com/attachment/201407/19/526870_1405759435gWBj.png "width =" 751 "Height =" 589 "/>

After adding the image, we can see the following results:

650) This. width = 650; "Title =" clip_image010 "style =" border-right-width: 0px; Background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-Right: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; "Border =" 0 "alt =" clip_image010 "src =" http://img1.51cto.com/attachment/201407/19/526870_14057594353bbc.png "width =" 828 "Height =" 189 "/>
