Anyone here an VMware ESXi master?
Just got a new (productions old) server for our development team. Unfortunately our IT Manager is swamped and has no idea how to override the 2tb storage capacity. Is there anyway around this? We are trying to get 1 vm with 3tb of storage to hold our SQLServer databases. Figured I would check here before going to stackoverflow.
Version of VMware is: ESXI, 4.1.0, 800380
Thanks guys.

It's a limitation on VMFS.
Run VMFS5 and you don't have the 2tb restriction.

Hard cap, so you can grow UP TO 2tb.
Extents would have worked fine if you were 1tb+1tb
