You created the VM with Workstation-compatible VMDKs. ESXi needs a different VMDK-format.
Try to convert the vmdks with vmkfstools -i.
Syntax would look like this:
cd /vmfs/volumes/datastore-name/directory-of-p2v-vm/
vmkfstools -i current.vmdk new.vmdk
Anyway - attach your vmx-file to your next reply.
I would have expected that it first complains about an incompatible vmdk for scsi0:0

Do you need support with a VMFS recovery problem ? - send a message via skype "sanbarrow"
I do not support Workstation 16 at this time ...
