Datacenter and cluster created with ESXi hosts B.3.4 Configure storage on ESXi hosts The example LUN created on the storage array is used to create a datastore on an ESXi host. The datastore is used to create a virtual disk on a virtual machine (VM) residing on the ESXi host. This process may be repeated as needed for additional LUNs, hosts, and VMs. B.3.5 Rescan storage 1. In the vSphere Web Client, go to Home > Hosts and Clusters. 2. In the Navigator pane, select an ESXi host with LUN access configured on the FC storage array. 3. In the center pane, select Configure > Storage Adapters. 4. Select host's first FC adapter, vmhba4 in this example, and click the icon to rescan storage. 5. The LUN on the storage array mapped to this host appears under Adapter Details on the Devices tab as shown in Figure 17.
