    Thanks for the reply

    When you say easier to store with the VM, do you mean the same LUN that the .vmdk file is stored on

    OR

    Do you mean store with the VM when adding raw disks to the virtual machine

    Sorry, missed this one.

    I mean store the RAW disk mapping file in the same datastore you selected during the VM creation.

    Since VMWARE recommends that the mapping file be stored on the SAN, Im guessing it would be the first option

    The datastore where your VM files reside is likely to be a SAN presented LUN anyway.
