Re: esxi host unable to access other host's datastore vCenter.

Hi,

Local disk of one ESXI host will not be able to access by other ESXI host.

I alos use similar setup , Here is my setup in workstation.

1. Two ESXI host in VMware Workstation virtual machine

2. One windows 2008 machine for vCenter server

3. One Open filer applaince (  free ) , using this I creat LUN and map it to ESXi host.

Note : I have enabled software iscsi on ESXI host with vmkernel port group.

Here is KB article to enable software iscsi on ESXI
