Re: Datastore missing after raid array rebuild

Hi ThompsG,

 

Yes, There were two data stores for the VM that were on the RAID array.  The VM itself was stored on a different data store that was not in the raid array.


I spent about 48 hours over the past week, including this morning, trying to coax ESXi into recognizing the volumes, with no luck.  Finally, I gave up and I removed the hard drives from the virtual machine that were on the corrupt data store.  Then, the virtual machine came up without issue.

 

Finally, since I have everything on those 2 volumes backed up to a cloud provider, I re-created the two data stores in the raid array and began the restore process. It is currently running and has an estimated 16 days left to go.
