I was using DSM on my ESXI server for about a half year but last week i migrated everything to my new server and stupid that i was i already delete the old datastore.
When i now start up the moved VM of DSM i need to reinstall it again, the problem with this is that when i do that my 4TB drive will be erased and all data on it will be lost.
The drives was mapped as RDM to the VM and the only thing i can see is the RDM file on the drive.
Does anybody know if it's possible to access the drive so i can restore the data in the RDM file, i hope someone tell it's possible but i don't think so.
I already tried mapping it to a linux and windows VM but that don't give anything.
