And now I want to go ahead and create a new data store on that storage array.

And what I want to do now is I want to add a new storage adapter. So what I'm adding here is basically a way for this ESXI host to connect to a storage device. You can see we've already got some VMHBAs created here, our host bus adapters, these are ways that my ESXI host can connect to its local physical disks. And so if we take a look at VMHBA 1 which is already there, there's some local disks that that VMHBA can connect to.…
