Hi,
I've created a FreeNAS iSCSi mirrored storage for my ESXi host, following this tutorial Step by Step Configuration FreeNAS 8.3.1 as iSCSI Target External Storage by Nathan Gusti Ryan - YouTube but unfortunately I can see the path in ESXI configuration but not the actual device. Can you tell me what the problem might be? I have exactly the same configuration on another server DL360 and it is working properly but it doesn't have Intel network cards. The new one's got them and I've been thinking if that might be the problem. Can you help me out?
Hi kozikr,
If you or other colleagues who are still having problems with the NAS and vSphere, please contact me via email. I'll help you via remote with TeamViewer.

1) in freenas make sure you have given right iP in initiator. even you can give as "ALL" 2) check the storage filtering in your hosts.
If you rescan vmhba, what messages coming in /var/log/vmkernel?
-A
Had the same problem, turned out to be an iqn base name collision. Rename the base name under "target global config" in freenas iscsi, resacn the iSCSI HBA and you should be good to proceed with datastore configuration.
