If the disk is not showing up, you'll probably need to find the correct driver and select "Load driver" on the windows UI above.
I find though the gParted has better support. Perhaps double check that you have the latest gParted version?

Re: is vsantrace logs are vsan component?
Hello Hadi,
vsantraces are extremely-detailed verbose logging that are typically written to a RAMdisk and a very small proportion saved to /locker (as they get rotated typically within minutes).
This logging is only really useful for troubleshooting issues when being intentionally reproduced or occurring presently.
My understanding of it is that vsantraces has two log outputs:
vsantraces - verbose output of cluster and object-level activity.
vsantracesUrgent - as the name suggests, verbose logging that is related to a problem occurring with cluster or objects/components, like in this case where components have changed state from 'active' to 'absent':
(" 'oldCompState: 'active, 'newCompState': 'absent' " e.g: old component state was 'active' component now marked as 'absent' , this type of event likely coincides with some other issue in the cluster such as a host losing connectivity to the rest of the cluster, a controller reset, a failed disk/disk-group, whether this event/status was transient or not can be determined by when/if you see the opposite logging for the same UUID e.g: " 'oldCompState: 'absent', 'newCompState': 'active' " ).
Are you using Log Insight configured for syslog?
If so then the following will make sense as to why vsantracesUrgent is being seen here as this is the default:

Vcenter server appliance won't power on, stuck at 80%
So here is my issue, I've been trying to get this app to turn on for what seems like ages. To the point where I started the arduous six hour task of starting back from square one on a new machine, only to be met with the same error (forgive my dramatics). Anyone know if there is a common issue or quick fix I could try for this sort of thing. The process to get here was lengthy and worked fine for my two classmates but if you need more information before you can supply me an answer let me know and I will do my best to explain the situation. I'm kind of a novice, this is my first virtualization class.

Re: Unable to connect to the remote server after certificate upgrade
We were able to resolve this issue internally. In case anyone else experiences this, our issue was due to a misconfigured irule on our F5 load balancer. I'm not a network engineer, so I don't know the details but apparently our irule was pointing at the api url and not the portal url. Once changed all starting working.

Re: Problems getting the IBM ServeRAID M1015 SAS/SATA Controller to work with a VM on ESXi 6.5
Just in case someone else ends up with this problem and wonders how to fix it, here is the solution.
Believe it or not, the solution for me was to downgrade to ESXi v5.1.
I downloaded the v5.1U3 installer disk, created a new USB key, set the root password, and rebooted.
I set the network up properly. Downloaded the v5.1 of vSphere since the new version doesn't work with ESXi 5.1.
Then I imported the VM into the inventory, Edited and deleted the PCI passthrough device. Saved. Then added the PCI ServeRAID device again and started the VM.
No problem. Took me all of 1 hour including downloading the ISO of ESXi.
Conclusion? ESXi v6.5 or the vSphere web client still doesn't play nice with PCI passthrough devices like the ServeRAID. I wasted a good 8 hours futzing around with ESXi v6.5. I think it will be easier to go into the cloud next time rather than screw around.
Thanks to everyone who read and helped. This has been a very frustrating experience.

[SOLVED] Problems getting the IBM ServeRAID M1015 SAS/SATA Controller to work with a VM on ESXi 6.5
I had the IBM ServeRAID M1015 running OK with ESXi 5.1 until an extended power failure that outlasted the UPS backup. The ESXi 5.1 on a USB got corrupted so I decided to install fresh using ESXi 6.5.
THe install went OK and I was able to get my other VMs going but the one that used the IBM ServeRAID M1015 is having the following error and won't start:
The systemId does not match the current system or the deviceId, and the vendorId does not match the device currently at 2:0.0.
I've read many posts and used Google but I don't seem to be able to figure out what is wrong. I think the deviceID and vendorID are OK.
From the VM settings:
lspci -v gives:
0000:02:00.0 Serial Attached SCSI controller Mass storage controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic LSI2008 [vmhba1]
Class 0107: 1000:0072
The esx.conf shows:
/device/00000:002:00.0/owner = "passthru"
/device/00000:002:00.0/device = "72"
/device/00000:002:00.0/vendor = "1000"
/device/00000:002:00.0/vmkname = "vmhba1"
The VM.vmx shows:
pciPassthru0.deviceId = "0072"
pciPassthru0.vendorId = "1000"
pciPassthru0.systemId = "508e907b-f95c-2f44-9df2-6470021053df"
pciPassthru0.id = "02:00.0"
pciPassthru0.pciSlotNumber = "160"
I think the system ID is from: /vmfs/volumes/50901e07-4bc606a0-29b7-6470021053df/
The esx.conf, VM.vmx now all show 0x72; 0x1000 but the VM won't start.
Yes, the IBM ServeRAID M1015 is certified to work on 6.5.
What have I missed? What should I be doing next?
Thank you in advance.

Re: web client Cut & Paste - like when we used with the thick client
Anyone solve this?
This makes the web client somewhat useless if you want to cut/paste anything.
The setting that works for the Think client do NOT work in the web client...
and when the Thick client is no longer working.....
This works without a problem in VirtualBox. Does not require any settings...
Update: 2 years later and it's still broken.

NIC failover if have drop package
Hi,
I have experienced a network failover which sereral VMs failover other active adapter. below is current vSwitch NIC Teaming config. we aslo just have two NICs both as active adapter.
so my question is below here ,thanks for your reply.
1, Is there have a log or method to observed VMs failover to other NIC ? ( I have checked vmkernel, hostd, vmksummary and vmware.log , both of them are not found relatied about VMs, just found about physical network adapter events, but we need a VM log as an eveidence)
2, there if have drop package or how many drops during the whole process? (when NIC failover and recover again (Failback set to Yes)). during my lab test . (when first failover , there is no drop package. but there have one drop package when recoverd)

Re: VSAN Stretched cluster for Tier one clinet
Greetings!
Upgrade to latest version is always recommended. If you are planning on use 6.0 then I would recommend using 6.0 U3.
Apart from this, network requirements are the major points to consider while deploying stretched cluster. Here is the official guide from VMware:
Hope this helpful.
