Resolution

Validate if the multizone setup steps are correctly followed:

1. Login to TCA-Manager:
   
   
   1. In TCA-UI:
      Infrastructure > CaaS Infrastructure > <Cluster-Name> > Add-Ons
   2. Edit the vsphere-csi Add-on
   3. Ensure that you have the proper tags in Zone and Region
2. Now Login to vCenter:
   
   
   1. In vCenter-UI:
      Tags & Custom Attributes
   2. Ensure that you have the correct Tags and the name matches with what you have in TCA-UI (Step-2). Also ensure that the category select for those tags are correct.

 

If the tags are good on both sides the PVC should get created successfully.
