Migrate existing datastore to new ESXi host

$

Hi there,

 

I am confused with all materials that I found. What I want to achieve is:

I have one physical disk on top of which datastore is created (VMFS 6). I want to remove that disk, move to another server (different ESXi installation), mount it and be able to see and access all files on this datastore in new ESXi (same version - 6.7).

 

Is this possible? What are the correct steps to properly umnount the datastore and then mount it again in new installation?

 

In regards to the last question, in the "New datastore" wizard I cannot see good option to achieve this. I can only create new VMFS datastore which basically erase all existing content on this disk (attachment) and this is not what I am looking for as I want to preserve it's content.
