VMware VSAN Host Maintenance mode with full data evacuation fails

Hi,

I am facing an issue where ESXi host maintenance mode with full data evacuation in VSAN is failing. Have tried, rebooting all hosts but no luck.

I ran command "cmmds-tool find -t NODE_DECOM_STATE -f json"  and found that it shows me 6 entries where by VSAN cluster is made of 5 nodes. So, out of 6 entries one entry shows below output with ""decomState": 6" Thing is uuid mentioned in below output does not match with any of the uuids of the nodes in the cluster. I see some commands "cmmds-tool delete -u UUID" but I am not sure what impact it can have on the cluster. Any help would be appreciated.
