Newbie: no storage on install VMWare 5.0.0 (Hp version) on NAS
when I try to install VMware-ESXi-5.0.0-Update1-623860-HP-Blade (downloaded from Hp website) on c7000 enclosure and BL685c server (connected via a HP 4Gb Fibre Channel Pass-Thru Module c-Class [403626 -b21] one storagework hP AD542A) does not see any disk during installation
The problem is in storage? Bios configuration of the blade? or VMWare?
It 's my first installation of the Blade, bought used on eBay.
I'm trying to install VMWare on Blade, do you think I could do it directly on the HP 4Gb Fibre Channel Pass-Thru Module?

Hi,
The AD542A cannot be used as an independent enclosure, it is meant for EVA Storage expansion, for blade enclosure through FC-pass thru you need to have an controller connected and FC drive enclosure to those controller.
So basically you need to atleast have the mid range Storage solution connected.
Thanks,
Jagadish
