I am trying to add this volume to ESX pool. I have ESX server and got connected to it. When I listed the pool the data store of ESX server was getting listed down. So I was adding this volume to that.
I want to create a domain but for that Matthias replied that I have to add volume which will put my .vmdk fole there.

What type of pool are you trying to add this volume to? This may be a
case of no one having implemented the volume creation for your
particular pool backend yet.
