    Hello everyone.

    I am setting up a vsan laboratory with 2 nodes, and cannot move beyond step two of the wizard to configure VSAN,

    I can select capacity and cache disks, but the next button appears greyed,

    I'm forgetting some step?

    thank you very much for your help and sorry for my english.

    Hello llbazterrica

    Welcome to Communities.

    Are you perhaps using a vCenter version lower than the hosts? (e.g. vC on 6.7 GA/U1 and ESXi 6.7 U2/U3) I ask as this can cause a lot of Disk-Group creation issues as they are incompatible versions.

    Do you have sufficient vSAN licensing for the cluster?

    Have you tried in the other Client?

    You can rule out any vCenter side issues by validating Disk-Group creation via the CLI:

    # esxcli vSAN storage add -s <naa of Cache-Tier> -d <naa of Capacity-tier>

    HelloTheBobkin and Thanks!

    Right on the spot, vcenter was update 1 and the hosts update 3

    Vcenter appliance version      6.7.0.21000           6.7.0.11727113

    VMware ESXi,                                                      6.7.0.14320388

    Using VAMI, I take Vcenter to last Version and finally, could complete the assistant without inconvenience

    Actual vcenter Version           6.7.0.40000           6.7.0.14367737

    Thank you very much for pointing me in the right direction !

    Are you sure that disks are clear and does not contain for example another vsan information? Or was there vsan configured before?

    Hello KocPawel

    That was my first mistake, but in that case the disks did not appear in the assistant, so I proceeded to clean their contents
