我问关于VMFS数据存储版本的ESXi hypervisor在Nutanix集群。我试图创建一个磁盘大于2tb的新虚拟机没有成功的运气，在一些谷歌搜索似乎这个问题可能是由于VMFS3。

That is the VMware\u00a0bug in the ESXi 7 versions. The vCenter is showing 2Tb maximum virtual disk size in some situations whereas it should be in fact 62Tb. All the details about when that situation happens is unknown to us and probably VMware can provide more information about it.<\/p>

That is purely a VMware bug and has absolutely nothing to do with Nutanix. There is a workaround - you can log in to the host\u2019s ESXi UI (not the vCenter, but the ESXi host client)\u00a0by typing the host\u2019s IP address in the browser and create the larger than 2Tb disk from there and it will work.<\/p>

在带有ESXi hypervisor的Nutanix上，所有的数据存储都是NFSv3。只有一个例外:每台主机上存在一个VMFS5数据存储，但该数据存储为ESXi安装使用的本地设备(SATADOM/M2)，不支持在本地数据存储上创建虚拟机。所以，基本上，所有虚拟机可以使用的数据存储都是NFSv3协议。ESXi上NFS数据存储的最大磁盘容量为62Tb。

当您尝试创建一个大于2Tb的磁盘时，您会收到什么样的错误?您创建的数据存储的总容量是多少?

On Nutanix with\u00a0ESXi hypervisor all the datastores are NFSv3. With only one exception -\u00a0there is one datastore on each host which is VMFS5, but it is a local device used for the ESXi installation (SATADOM\/M2) and it is not supported to create VMs on the local datastore. So, basically, all the datastores that can be used for VMs are NFSv3 protocol. The maximum disk size on ESXi for NFS datastores is 62Tb.<\/p>

What kind of error do you receive when you try to create a disk bigger than 2Tb? What is the total capacity of the datastore that you created?<\/p>","quoteUsername":"Sergei Ivanov","translations":{"Common":{"like":"Like","unlike":"Unlike"},"Forum":{"Quote":"Quote","Share":"Share"}}}">

我也得到了这个，我不知道为什么。全新的Nutanix设置与vSphere 7u1。

NFS v3数据存储，当然是从Prism创建的。没有大小限制，30TB免费。

然而，当我编辑虚拟机的设置并输入“新硬盘”时，它拒绝给我2tb或更多。如果我展开细节，它说“最大支持的大小:2 TB”。
我以前在扩展到超过2tb的驱动器时就遇到过这个问题，而且必须从PowerCLI完成。

但为什么它不能直接在vCenter 7上工作呢?这次我不是扩展，而是创建一个新的。

谢谢!

I\u2019m getting this as well, and I don\u2019t know why. Brand new Nutanix setup with vSphere 7u1.<\/p>

NFS v3 Datastore of course, created from Prism. No limit in size and 30TB free.<\/p>

Still, when I edit the settings for the VM and enter \u201cNew harddisk\u201d, it refuses to give me 2 TB or more. If I expand the details it says \u201cMaximum supported size: 2 TB\u201d.
I\u2019ve had this issue before with extending drives to over 2 TB, and had to do it from PowerCLI.<\/p>

But why wouldn\u2019t it work from vCenter 7 straight away? This time I\u2019m not extending, I\u2019m creating a new one.<\/p>

Thanks!<\/p>

如果您登录Prism并查看“首页-存储摘要”，那么它显示了多少空闲逻辑空间?

此外，如果您单击vcenter上的数据存储- configure - general。上面写了什么?

大量的空闲空间。

还有，这里说最大2tb。我想62TB应该是可能的，或者别的什么?

Also, here it says max 2 TB. I think 62TB should be possible, or something?<\/figcaption><\/figure>

这是ESXi 7版本中的VMware bug。在某些情况下，vCenter显示的最大虚拟磁盘大小为2Tb，而实际上应该是62Tb。关于这种情况何时发生的所有细节我们都不知道，也许VMware可以提供更多的信息。

这纯粹是一个VMware漏洞，与Nutanix毫无关系。有一个解决方案——你可以通过在浏览器中输入主机的IP地址登录到主机的ESXi界面(不是vCenter，而是ESXi主机客户端)，并在那里创建大于2Tb的磁盘，它就可以工作。

谢谢 @Sergei伊万诺夫，我可以直接在ESXi主机上创建>2Tb的磁盘。是的，这似乎是VMware 7版本的一个bug。

感谢你的回应,

Thanks @Sergei Ivanov<\/user-mention>, I could create >2Tb disk from ESXi host directly. and yes, it seems a bug in VMware 7 versions.

Appreciate your response,\u00a0
