HOW TO: Add a Synology NAS providing NFS Storge to VMware vSphere Hypervisor ESXi 7.0

The Synology Storage Console for VMware vSphere is a free software appliance to use in conjunction with the Synology NAS product, which is designed to ease the deployment of NFS and iSCSI LUNs to VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi) hosts.

The Synology Storage Console for VMware vSphere can be downloaded from https://www.synology.com/en-us/support/download.
