Environment

VMware Cloud Foundation 4.x

Cause

This occurs when the prerequisites for enabling vSphere with Kubernetes is to have the "WCPReady" tag added on the NSX-T Manager 

Resolution

To resolve this issue, please add the tag "WCPReady" by going to System - Fabric - Nodes - Edge Cluster and adding a new tag. 
Note: This is case sensitive and needs to match "WCPReady"
