VMware ESXi 5.1.0 Maximum VMFS5 Datastore Size

$

0

Hello Everyone,

 

I have been reading white papers on VMFS and I am getting conflicting answers on the maximum size of a VMFS5 Datastore.

 

We are using a Dell EqualLogic PS6100 and connecting the LUNs via iSCSI to the host servers.

 

I need to create a 4TB Datastore for my file servers to reside on.

 

A) Is this possible?

B) Are there any performance issues with larger datastores such as the one I am looking to do.

C) Do block sizes need to be changed to mount a datastore of this size and how do you do that.

 

Any insight or links to articles would be greatly appreciated.

 

Keith
