I will have three servers with HP ESXi , then I will have to create 6 VM 's, how many volumes I create in storage and how to create ?

if you have enough disks create 2 disks groups each will have a different controller assigned and create a volume on the whole of the disk group.

And where I can see a help creating these two groups ?? I'll have to install 7 VM's , and as I have access to the VMware vSphere Storage of records?

The ESXi will call for fibre channel.
