Issue

After successfully discovering a cluster in VSC, one or more SVMs in the cluster are missing from the VSC Storage Systems menu. In vSphere's Recent Tasks, the discovery tasks may report unknown errors.

In the VSC logs, you see some combination of these errors:

VSC vsc.log file:

time [Hostesxia] INFO (viapi) - getMo: moRef.type = Datastore, moRef.Value = Datastore-12
time [Hostesxia] ERROR (HostDiscoverer) - [ipaddress] Discovery completed with error: null

VSC vsc.log file:
