I have guest DC that crashed sometime in March, but I recovered the guest OS using backup. However, huge VMDK files(RAID 5 of which 2 of 4 drives failed) were not being backup. We sent all 4 drives to a recovery company and it was recovery. I created a datastore to host the 2TB flat VMDK file, uploaded the flat VMDK file successfully. The guest OS is runing and I need to attach the VMDK file to access data. I went to the settings, add hard drive, select datastore2, and no VMDK file present. I was reading some stuff online that I may need to recreate the VMDK descriptor file. Any ideas? -Thanks.
