Post Readding hosts from datastore after clean install of ESXi 5
Hi all,

My upgrade to ESXi 5 went bad and the machine was freezing on boot. I decided to do a clean install of ESXi 5 while leaving the datastore intact. The machine is up and running now, however I do not know how to readd the hosts. Any ideas on how I can do this?


Cheers,
Daniel

Browse the datastore, open the folder containing the vm, right click the .vmx file, then "add to inventory" or something like that.
