What are we supposed to check? You already looked at the HCL and marked the supported versions. Do you see any support for vSAN 6.5 or 6.7? No. So you answered your question yourself...

Also, it is the OEM that decides whether they want to support their hardware on newer versions or not. Could be that they decided to no longer certify this equipment for versions higher then 6.0

well there is a vcenter 6.0 u2 in the environment. 7 esxi cluster and 5 vsan cluster. they work under a single vcenter 6.0u2 . if I now only upgrades the vcenter and esxi' in the cluster to 6.7 without upgrade vsan cluster, I will not  do anything to the esxi in vsan? it would be a problem for vsan cluster ?

1 vcenter

7 esxi host cluster

5 vsan cluster

If you have multiple clusters and only some are configured for vSAN, you can omit the vSAN clusters and upgrade only vCenter and the remaining clusters to 6.7. This is possible if the hardware of the non-vSAN hosts is supported for vSphere 6.7. Because vCenter 6.7 can also manage 6.0 and 6.5 ESXi hosts.
