ESXi 5.1 host physically removed before unmapping SAN storage
Greetings,
An ESXi 5.1 host was physically removed before iSCSI SAN storage was unmounted/detached/unmappe
I still see the host on the EMC and the HP SANs. Can I remove the host from the SANs without causing the SANs or other hosts to freeze up (all paths down or some other issue)? Is it better to just leave the removed host on the SANs? There are only 2 hosts here managed by vCenter and in a cluster so it's not a big cluster with several hosts.
Thanks for any help
