newbie question

[sajeevv]

Under host name > disks I see 3 disks: sda, sdb and sdc.

When I go to create a vm and try to specify a datastore, I do not see the option to choose sdb or sdc.

How to I use sdb and sdc for my vm storage? I see the disks, but I am not able to use them. This is not as institutive as vmware .

You need to format/configure them.

NM. I see the problem. It was because the host use to be vmware and its only now I realized they show up as vmfs volumes. Formatted and configured.

How do I add this disk to a pool?

i went to datacenter > permissions > pools > selected a pool name, but i do not see an option to add a disk/storage to the pool
