For every volume you want the host to access you must add an access record or Access Policy Group to the volumes.
For this reason I prefer to use CHAP for access control. So simply add the CHAP credentials to the ESXi host and it will access all the volumes without having to modify access records every time you add or remove a host.
I set up CHAP accounts for the different clusters. So the servers only access the proper volumes. But later if need be I can add in the other CHAP account so the clusters could access the other volumes.
