After adding the harddrive in ESXi for the VM ran ls /dev/sd* but it did not show the new hard drive.
I found THIS site where I used the following commands to add the hard drive without rebooting.
echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/scan fdisk -l
This showed:
[root@centos-teste ~]# fdisk -l Disk /dev/sda: 42.9 GB, 42949672960 bytes, 83886080 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk label type: dos Disk identifier: 0x0001b288 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 2048 1026047 512000 83 Linux /dev/sda2 1026048 83886079 41430016 8e Linux LVM Disk /dev/mapper/centos-root: 40.2 GB, 40227569664 bytes, 78569472 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk /dev/mapper/centos-swap: 2147 MB, 2147483648 bytes, 4194304 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk /dev/sdb: 21.5 GB, 21474836480 bytes, 41943040 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I then ran ls /dev/sd* again and it showed the new drive as sdb.
***EDIT***
On one of my servers the new disk wasnt showing up.
I ran the command below which I got from THIS site:

ls /sys/class/scsi_host/ | while read host ; do echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/$host/scan ; done
This found the hard drive.
