  1. Thanks for the replies. I'd tried reformatting that temp disk to FAT in OS X but still the same error, did the same with my 1TB drive and vSphere doesn't seem to see that at all. Think I'll just go with a bare metal install for now to get up and running and then see about virtualising later (to be honest I've no pressing reason to use ESXi, was mostly out of curiosity and to get familiar with it). Cheers.
  2. Hi all I'm familiar with DSM and some virtualisation such as Fusion, but I've got myself an HP Microserver G1610 and I'm trying to get it set up with ESXi 6 and Xpenology. I'm hitting a bit of a wall with the datastore though. I've a 32GB SanDisk Ultra Fit I'm using for ESXi and I'd also hoped to use to boot DSM, however this isn't available as a datastore using the ESXi Windows client, and I'm also having bother getting a SATA drive up and running with a datastore. I've stuck a 160GB drive in initially while I backup and format the larger drive from my old NAS, and I'm getting a 'cannot change the host configuration' error when trying to create a datastore with it (previously had a W8.1 install on it, and I think it was re-formatted by HP Intelligent Provisioning when I tried that). Any tips for getting this formatted and available to ESXI? I have shell access set up for ESXi, but I'm also running into permission problems when I try and execute any commands (sudo not found, tried creating a new admin user instead of using root but not working with that either). Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
