Hi all,
I built a new ESXi 6.5 with RAID6 local storage and configured host cache. I migrated VMs from old hardware server to this new built. The ESXi was frozen and responded. I rebooted the ESXi host. Afterward, the datastore is missing. The Host cache - datastore was full. My vCenter is also running on this new ESXi host.
I also attached VMFS-Header-dump file.
Please help me to restore the VMs. It would be sincerely appreciated.
Missing datastore01-raid6
