Hello Alif,

I suggest you remove this virtual machine from inventory, browse to the datastore and open then folder where this machine is hosted and delete the XXXXMACHINENAME.vmx file.

Then, go to your Hosts and Cluster view and create a new machine, when you reach the Disk creation/allocation window, choose "Select existing disk" and point it to the 2 drives you already have in the folder.

Your issue is in the VMX configuration file.

I hope that this will help.
