@sarasoltan, There are many many possible causes for this issue - it would be advisable for you to create a new thread on the vSAN forum with actual details and specifics of your issue instead of just replying to a 4 year old thread that has basically no information.

 

Start with checking Skyline Health - maybe you have nodes isolated from the cluster or disk failures and you don't have sufficient data or cluster health to expand the vmdk - vSAN won't allow expansion of objects unless they are in a healthy, storage-policy compliant state so start with validating that your cluster and data are healthy (and that you have enough space 😉).
