This is a known issue caused when vSphere 7.0 Update 2 generates incorrect data regarding storage metrics. This data is then transmitted to Cloud Director and can result in the error 'Negative uncommittedCapacityMb'
being visible in Cloud Director during certain tasks. For additional information see vSphere KB 83990.
The issue is resolved in ESXi 7.0 Update 2c (build number 18426014) which is available for download here.
Note: Cloud Director 10.3.1 and above also resolves the issue whereby vCenter Server may disconnect as a result of this problem. However that the 'Negative uncommittedCapacityMb'
error can still be visible until the ESXi patch is applied.
Within vCenter Server, perform a full storage rescan from all ESXi clusters backing the Provider VDC in order to refresh the storage metrics. Allow a few minutes for this data to synchronize in Cloud Director.
