Network Misconfiguration Status in a vSAN Cluster

After you enable vSAN on a cluster, the datastore is not assembled correctly because of a detected network misconfiguration.

Problem

After you enable vSAN on a cluster, on the Summary tab for the cluster the Network Status for vSAN appears as Misconfiguration detected.

Cause

One or more members of the cluster cannot communicate because of either of the following reasons:

• A host in the cluster does not have a VMkernel adapter for vSAN.
• The hosts cannot connect each other in the network.

Solution

Join the members of the cluster to the same network. See vSAN Planning and Deployment.
