Error When creating a new NAS Datastore Call "HostDatastoreSystem.CreateNasDatastore" for object "ha-datastoresystem" on ESXi "192.168.100.50" failed. Operation failed, diagnostics report: Unable to get share name for volume, volumes. Does it exist?
Hi just to warn you I am novice with VMware , I'm in the process of setting up backups for the VMmachines which backup automaticly onto a NAS using NFS. I got everything working with regards with the ghettoVCB script, however I deleted the backup volume folder using WinSCP which then caused the backup scripts to not work. I couldn't just re-add the folder I deleted so i unmounted the NAS Datastore and attempted to re-add it however i now get this error.
Call "HostDatastoreSystem.CreateNasDatastore" for object "ha-datastoresystem" on ESXi "192.168.100.50" failed.

I'm pretty sure all the settings are right as I print screened it before I deleted it.
I tryed restarting from the beginning and adding a new NFS to the NAS however I get the same error for that.
I also managed to delete the other backup datastore of the server(fail I know) and I can't re-add that datastore either. I'm not quite sure what else I can do, anyone have any ideas.
Oh I can still ping the NAS aswell so it shouldn't be a firewall issue considering both datastores worked before with the same setting.
I have also tryed using services.sh restart which didn't change anything
Thanks for your help
