I'v uploaded a folder named scripts with some scripts in the root of my vSphere 5.0 server like this:

/scripts

When I reboot the server, this folder is not there anymore. Its like if vSphere restores all it's default folders at each reboot.

How can I manage to keep my scripts folder even after a reboot?

is /scripts on the local datastore? or did you enable ssh and create it in ESXi's own filesystem? – Graeme Donaldson Dec 8 '11 at 19:47

Sounds like a diskless or stateless deployment, this may shed some light on what you're experiencing. Ideally your scripts should reside in a datastore, not on the root.
