Hello marcelpan ,

If your license expired (or license with some needed features expired) then you can't use the functions provided by these - check your licensing for the cluster, if it is not expired then contact licensing team in support.

Hello marcelpan​

What licensing do/did you have applied to your vSAN cluster? e.g. did you purchase and apply a vSAN Enterprise license to the cluster or were you using a free trial license?

If you were using a trial license then these are limited and are an Enterprise Plus feature-set for 60 days after which the license expires.

Here is an overview of what features are licensed in which versions:
