Verification of FC Multipath Connectivity
To verify the FC connections being used by ESXi, Figure 4-45 shows how this can be done
from the VMware VSphere client. Once the client is connected to the newly installed ESXi
host, this information can be viewed from the Summary panel. Select the appropriate
Datastore and right click on it to display its properties.
Figure 4-45 VMware VSphere client: Summary panel
Figure 4-46 on page 233displays an example of a datastore that represents the SAN Boot
XIV volume that was used during the installation of ESXi 4.1. To display explicit information
