Hello everyone, and sorry for my poor english

 

I've a big problem with a RAID 10 server where it is installed ESXi 4.0.0, which starts but fails to start VMs. I had shell access to the server and these are the relevant information related to the disks:

 

~ # fdisk -l

 

Disk /dev/disks/t10.ATA_____GB0250EAFJF_____________________________9SF1Q6G5____________: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes

64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 238475 cylinders

Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes

Partition table entries are not in disk order

Partition table entries are not in disk order

 

Maybe the problem is caused by the different contents of the disks. Using the vSphere Client, in fact, you can see the device but datasore is not detected.

Would you care to give me a hand to get out of this mess?
