Can not disable vsanvp firewall rule...

I'm trying to tighten a little bit security of my solo ESXi 6.0 server by disabling unnecessary services/rules, so I want to disable firewall rule for vsanvp. But when I try it (using native client), all I get is the message:

Call "HostFirewallSystem.DisableRuleset" for object "firewallSystem" on ESXi "<my_esxi_IP>" failed.

And Security Profile still shows I have allowed incomming/outgoing connections for vsanvp.

vSphere 6.0 docu says:

VSAN VASA Vendor Provider. Used by the Storage Management Service (SMS) that is part of vCenter to access information about Virtual SAN storage profiles, capabilities, and compliance. If disabled, Virtual SAN Storage Profile Based Management (SPBM) does not work.

But I'm using neither vCenter nor virtual san-storage. So why I still can not disable firewall rule for vsanvp?
