When i delete datastore on ESXi, space is not freed on Mac, only on host. Runnig VMWare Fusion 11.0.2 | ESXi 6.7
I can understand when you delete VMFS the data still remains in the datastore, which would be why you need to run VMFS command tool..
But in my case the entire datastore is deleted.. I thought it would be best to eliminate the "container". as surly any deletion of a datastore would be guaranteed to free up space no ?
Esxi reports 0% used and 0% free and no datastores.. but on Mac the ESXi bundle is showing 14Gig still
I get round this, being in a test environment, deleting Esxi, and installing fresh, which only shows 5Gig instead... But there would have to be a better way. i would have thought,
Did i have to use command tool to delete space BEFORE removing datastore ?
