  • 1.  Empty fields when adding an existing drive

    When I try to add an existing disk, I see the behavior as in the attached screenshot. All fields are disabled and there is nothing I can do. I tried completely different drives, the behavior is the same. ESXi 6.7 Update 3. What could be the reason?

    See https://williamlam.com/2022/12/heads-up-esxi-8-0-host-client-unable-to-attach-existing-virtual-disk-to-vm.html and it may be fixed in newer 6.7 releases but if not, you may need to apply the workaround but I do know that all newer versions will have the fix included by default

    Thanks, this guide helped. But I had version 1.43.10, and I changed it to 1.43.8
