  • 1.  Unable to re-add iSCSi Datastore without Formatting

    Posted Dec 14, 2018 07:06 AM

    Hi,

    Recently, I migrated my HDDs from Old Synology NAS to New Synology and reconfigured the Software iSCSI adapter with new IQNs.

    After rescanning the adapter, I can see the device but not Datastore. If I try to add new Datastore it shows "No devices with free space".

    I checked the status using the command line and got this:

    [root@localhost:~] esxcli storage vmfs extent list

    Volume Name         VMFS UUID                            Extent Number  Device Name                                                                 Partition

    How far are you getting in the new datastore wizard. I think there is a re signature option you need to use if the vmfs file system was connected using a different adapter.

    Resignature a VMFS Datastore Copy
