VMware vSAN
Issue/Introduction
Symptoms: In vCenter user may see false inaccessible vSAN objects in cluster -> Monitor -> Virtual Object View, yet vSAN health reports all objects are healthy. All inaccessible objects are a secondary VM Home folder
Environment
VMware vSAN 6.7.x
Cause
This is because ESXi didn't handle special cases well during parsing VMDK paths extracting the wrong vSAN UUID resulting in a duplicate VM home folder triggering the false alarm for inaccessible objects.
