@DaanHoogland, the problem was an inconsistency in CloudStack 4.20: new VMware data volumes were created as First Class Disks (FCDs), while parts of the attach/detach lifecycle still expected file-based VMDKs. This caused path lookup, relocation, and controller/adapter handling to fail, especially during reattach. Our workaround creates new data volumes as classic VMDKs through a temporary worker VM. It also synchronizes legacy paths before attach and preserves the requested provisioning and adapter types. This works reliably in our environment, but it is not a general solution: it bypasses FCDs, does not convert existing FCD volumes, adds worker-VM overhead, and has not been validated with VVOLs, local storage, or all migration scenarios.
