Problem:
When you add a hard disk to ESXi, you are prompted with the following error: "On ESXi" xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx "called the object" Ha-datastoresystem " Hostdatastoresystem.queryvmfsdatastorecreateoptions "Failed".
Problem Analysis:
This disk is preceded by a boot disk on another virtual host, which may be related to this. There are other reasons for this:
The size of the LUN exceeds 2tb-512 bytes, and the largest LUN in VSphere 4 is the 2tb-512 byte.
The LUN is provided by the previous RDM.
The LUN contains a GPT partition and cannot be deleted.
Workaround:
1, need to open Esxi5 SSH login. Log in to Esxi5 via sshd. (There are many ways to open ssh online)
2. ls/dev/disks/determine which of the newly added disks is. For example, the new disk I inserted here is: NAA.5000C500502215C5
3, Partedutil mklabel/dev/disks/naa.5000c500502215c5 msdos ( by changing the volume label of the disk, you can destroy all partitions of the disk.) So here's the Partedutil mklabel command to change the disk label to Msdos)
4. The normal addition of disks through Vsphere is successful. (Configuration-add storage, disk partition format select VMFS5)
