Have 2 esx3.5 u3 (or whatever the last update was for 3.5) and 2 new esxi 4.1 (yes, I know - but it is only temporary - will be upgraded to 5.1 this fall).
The 3.5 hosts connect to storage on the old NetApp using iSCSI. The 4.1 hosts have NFS datastores on the new NetApp but also have access to the iSCSI datastores.
In order to storage vmotion, do the 3.5 hosts have to be able to "see" the NFS datastores? Or, can the fact that the destination can see both of them, sufficient?
Also - if I have to create the NFS datastores on the 3.5 hosts - any tips for me?
