Error "Failed to run vdcpromo" while install new VCSA 7 to join existing VCSA 7 domain

I am installing new VCSA 7 appliance 2 and after stage 1 successfully completed, in stage 2 I select joining new VCSA to deployed VCSA 7.0.3 appliance 1.

then the installation stopped at message "Failed to run vdcpromo"

The Error log shows "No file found matching /etc/vmware-vpx/vc-extn-cisreg.prop"

The new VCSA appliance 2 is installed in the same host, same storage pool with existing VCSA appliance 1

Both VCSA NTP setting is synchronize with host server.

Welcome to any suggestion of solution.

Do you have proper dns configured and it resolves with VC IP and FQDN.

I am getting the exact same error - the only thing I'm seeing in the logs are missing files!? How?
I have this install pointing to ESXi host for time sync.
I'm trying to figure out how to restart Stage 2...
