VDDK - Preflight check failing for SAN restore

VMware  (7.0.3) Release build-18705163

dmidecode -t system output confirms that backup host is physical

And the disks are thick eager-zeroed, so a SAN based restore should work

The problem:

The snapshot is in fact being created on restore - but has anyone seen this with this version of VDDK?  Why it is failing the preflight check for SAN?
