Just wanted to mention here that Don said in the video that a filter like
config.vpxd.filter.vmfsFilter if set to true will hide the vmfs datastore and has no value in it. Actually, if you set to true it will stop you from overwriting a VMFS with VMFS. Setting it to false it will enable you to overwrite which could be bad if you never intended to do so.
Also, I think Don is very good instructor and I like his style and understanding of the technology.
I'll let Don know. This is on the schedule to be updated this year. We have VMWare expert Adam Gordon who will be taking the lead on this updated course!
Cordially,

Satish,
I hope all is well. There are actually 4 different storage filters that can be set to either "TRUE" or "FALSE" depending on what you are looking to accomplish:
VMFS Filter - config.vpxd.filter.vmfsFilter
RDM Filter - config.vpxd.filter.rdmFilter
Same Hosts and Transports Filter - config.vpxd.filter.sameHostsAndTransportsFilter
Host Rescan Filter - config.vpxd.filter.hostRescanFilter
Note:
If you turn off this filter, your hosts continue to perform a rescan each time you present a new LUN to a host or a cluster.
