I've inherited an ESXI host with a NFS datastore that's currently mounted and in use. Unfortunately, the ESXI host doesn't have an IP that's in the same subnet as the datastore so all that storage traffic is going through our router.
I want to add a new IP to the ESXI host that's on the right subnet and just have the traffic going through our switches.
My question is, am I able to do that while everything is up and running? Just add the new IP and everything should just reconnect without issue. Or do i have to unmount the datastore first and then configure the networking the remount and import the disks?
