Configure MSA 1050 SAS and 2 DL 380 Gen10 servers to VMWare vSphere 6.7 U2

Hello,
I write from Italy and I have a problem similar with MSA 1050 SAS and 2 DL 380 Gen10 servers and same cables but with VMWare vSphere 6.7 U2.
Configure MSA storage with Pool, Disk Group, Volume and Mapping.
I connect to the first ESX server and create the datastore by connecting it to the MSA volume and it works;
I connect to the second ESX server I try to create the datastore but I don't see the MSA volume.
It appears that the first server exclusively uses the volume.
The Firmware and BIOS are all updated.

Do you have any idea what to do?
Could you tell me how I had to configure MSA and Server?
Thank you and good day.

Mauro.

Hello,

Please refer SMU user guide below and make sure the volume mapping is configured appropriately 

Also, it could be a firmware/driver compatibility issue of adapter on second esx host. 

I would suggest, you capture vmsupport logs and MSA store.zip logs and contact HPE support for further assistance.
