Hi,
With vCloud Director 1.5 when I created a new Provider vDC I was shown all available datastores presented to my vCenter and could pick exactly which ones I'd like to include in the pVDC.
I've now deployed vCloud Director 5.1 although my ESXi hosts are still 5.0 and the option seems to have changed. Know you're just given the *(Any) choice for storage profiles and every datastore is dragged into the pVDC.
This is an issue for me because all of my boot LUNs are being included wihin the pVDC as available storage and clearly that's not what they are.
I know I can go into the manage and monitor tab, select datastores & clusters from the left and then manually disable each of my boot LUNs, but it doesn't seem right that I have to include a LUN inside a pVDC and then disable it.
Am I doing this the only way possible?
Oh, by the way I forgot to mention that we don't use storage profiles and don't have any storage providers configured in vCenter. This is because I've not loaded any array plug-ins to determine the disk types.
