Storage Area Networks A storage area network (SAN) is a specialized high-speed network that connects computer systems, or ESXi hosts, to high-performance storage systems. ESXi can use Fibre Channel or iSCSI protocols to connect to storage systems. See Chapter 3 Overview of Using ESXi with a SAN.

Booting ESXi from Fibre Channel SAN When you set up your host to boot from a SAN, your host's boot image is stored on one or more LUNs in the SAN storage system. When the host starts, it boots from the LUN on the SAN rather than from its local disk.

Installing ESXi 6.7 or upgrading to ESXi 6.7 requires a boot device that is a minimum of 1 GB. When booting from a local disk, SAN or iSCSI LUN, a 5.2-GB disk is required to allow for the creation of the VMFS volume and a 4-GB scratch partition on the boot device.

This is the only support method for handling vSAN traces when booting an ESXi from a USB stick or SD card. If a power failure occurs, vSAN trace logs are not preserved. When you boot an ESXi 6.0 or later host from a SATADOM device, vSAN trace logs are written directly to the SATADOM device.
