Creating VI workload domain datastores

  • After you create the NFS- or vSAN-backed VI workload domain, present the FC storage service as ancillary storage.

    Present storage to vCenter

    Present the FC storage to the VI workload domain vCenter:

    1. Open a web browser and go to the vSphere Web Client at https://<vCenter Server Appliance FQDN or IP>/vsphere-client.
    1. Log in with an account that has administrator privileges.
    2. On the Home page, go to Hosts and Clusters.
    3. Under Navigator, right-click the VI workload domain cluster object, and select Storage > Rescan storage.
    4. Right-click the VI workload domain cluster object and select Storage > New Datastore.
    5. Complete the New Datastore wizard to create the datastore for the VI workload domain.
