Datastore Characteristics

  • Configured as a clustered file system

  • Configured per host, but multiple hosts can point to the same datastore

  • Managed at the host level and the data center level

  • Datastore path format:

    [<datastore>] <path>

    where <datastore> is the datastore name and <path> is a slash-delimited path from the root of the datastore.

    Example: [storage] win2k/testing/bue11dtesting.vmx
