The hosts have status "on" etc.  However, the datastores appear empty and VMs will not instantiate.  I guess I do not really understand why these datastores are set to /vmfs/volumes and are also mounted.  Perhaps I am mixing methods.  I would like to use the esx datastores only and the front end just for staging.
