So I can't justify running a DL360 G7 just for FreeNAS or SCALE I was playing around with so I exported my pool from SCALE.
Installed ESXi 6.0 U3 and after a bit of head scratching managed to RDM the three drives I had in the pool. And add them to FreeNAS 11.3 U5 VM.
It did however not find the pool. I just made a new one no big deal since it's just for test with no data on it but my question is if it's something with RDM that didn't "transfer" or if pool from SCALE was incompatible? (SCALE was made with nightly a while ago if it matters).
Question two would be if someone have any experience, anecdotes or advice with RDM to share.
And to add disclamer, don't do this at work. And maybe not at home ether :P
I trust the RDM drives as much as I trust the VMFS5 drive ESXi is installed to. So about 3 on a scale of 1-10.
