The storage administrator registers the VVOL datastore in the VM host.
The vSphere Web Client operating procedure is as follows:
Select the VM host.
Click Storage > New Datastore... by right-clicking the mouse, or from Actions.
Operate according to the directions on the screen.
Specify "VVOL" for the datastore type. The VVOL datastore created by the storage administrator is displayed in the list for "Backing Storage Container". Select the VVOL datastore to register from this list.
Point
You can set the datastore name when registering the VVOL datastore. The default is the name when created by the storage administrator. Unless the registered datastore name is a duplicate, continue to use that name without changing it.
