This issue occurs if a datastore path violates the expected format.
The expected format is [dsName] path. For example, [storage1] folder/Vm1.vmdk.
This issue may also occur:
- If a datastore corresponding to the given datastore path is not found.
- If the file corresponding to the path does not exist on the filesystem.
- When a media store and its NFS datastore have the same NFS path root.
- When registering a virtual machine in the vCenter Server Datastore browser with the virtual machine path containing non-Basic Latin characters. For example, when the .vmx file name contains Japanese characters, such as westあ表薔薇/west-ja.vmx.
