I have 2 img files on a Starwind Server. The ESXi 4.0 server has no problems attaching to the Starwind Server's datastore (img files). But, when I reboot the ESXi 3.5 U4 server,
the datastores are not available. I have to add the storage again. ESXi want's to either use the free space or the existing space (vmfs partition) but wants to format the partition(s)
I have existing VM's on that server and can't format it.
Resolution.
Thanks,

Glad the issue is resolved.
Yes, this happens because Vmware cannot actually find the correct signature for the mounted device. That's why changing the LVM resignature to 1 solves this problem.
Thanks.
