B.3.7 Create a virtual disk
In this example, the ESXi host with the datastore configured in the previous section contains a VM named
VM1 that is running a Windows Server guest OS.
Note: Virtual machine guest operating system deployment steps are not included in this document. For
instructions, see the VMware vSphere 6.7 Documentation. Guest operating systems can be any supported by
ESXi 6.7. VMs should be deployed before proceeding with this section.
To create a virtual disk on VM1 using the datastore:
1. Go to Home > Hosts and Clusters.
2. In the Navigator pane, right click on VM1 and select Edit Settings.
3. Next to New Device, select New Hard Disk and click Add.
4. Click the icon next to New Hard Disk to view the configuration options.
5. Next to Location, select Browse. Select the previously configured datastore, e.g., Unity 80GB LUN,
and click OK. The screen looks similar to Figure 21.
