Same issue here. got it working with some tweaks: added an extra line to $VsanClusterInfo 'vSAN ESA Enabled' = Switch ($VsanCluster.VsanEsaEnabled) {
$true { 'Yes' }
$false { 'No' }
}in the vsanclusters loop I excluded the OSA disk details if (!($VsanCluster.VsanEsaEnabled -eq $true)){
$VsanDiskGroup = Get-VsanDiskGroup -Cluster $VsanCluster.Cluster
$NumVsanDiskGroup = $VsanDiskGroup.Count
$VsanDisk = Get-VsanDisk -VsanDiskGroup $VsanDiskGroup
$VsanDiskFormat = $VsanDisk.DiskFormatVersion | Select-Object -First 1 -Unique
$NumVsanSsd = ($VsanDisk | Where-Object { $_.IsSsd -eq $true }).Count
$NumVsanHdd = ($VsanDisk | Where-Object { $_.IsSsd -eq $false }).Count
if ($NumVsanHdd -gt 0) {
$VsanClusterType = "Hybrid"
} else {
$VsanClusterType = "All Flash"
}
} else {
$VsanClusterType = "All Flash (NVMe)"
}I removed these 3 lines from the clusterdetail object and added them only if there is no ESA if (!($VsanCluster.VsanEsaEnabled -eq $true)){
$VsanClusterDetail | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -name 'Disk Format Version' -value $VsanDiskFormat
$VsanClusterDetail | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -name 'Total Number of Disks' -value $NumVsanSsd + $NumVsanHdd
$VsanClusterDetail | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -name 'Total Number of Disk Groups' -value $NumVsanDiskGroup
}lastly I excluded the whole section disk groups and disks. These are depended on the diskgroup which do no exist anymore if (!($VsanCluster.VsanEsaEnabled -eq $true)){
.....
}for the exclusion. the result is that the report is created only the ESA lines are not included in the report yet. |

I have this coded already, however I got distracted while testing it in a few environments. I'll aim to push this up to the repo over the Easter weekend and you can test it further. |

Are you sure that it is fixed? DETAILED: [ 14:41:03:404 ] [ Document ] - Processing paragraph 'The following sections detail the co[..]'.
I have to mention that i installed a prerelease version while we tested in the last month: Version Name Repository Description 1.4.0 AsBuiltReport.Core PSGallery A PowerShell module which provides the core framework for generating As-Built documentation ... The update with the --force gives no errors but am not sure if the correct module is active now WARNUNG: [ 14:52:25:303 ] [ Module ] - AsBuiltReport.VMware.vSphere 1.3.4.1 is currently installed. To be sure i need to uninstall the prerelease and install from scratch but i get this error: PackageManagement\Uninstall-Package : The module 'AsBuiltReport.VMware.vSphere' of version '1.3.4-rc1' in module base folder 'C:\Program

Update: ModuleType Version Name ExportedCommands Script 1.3.4.1 AsBuiltReport.VMware.vSphere Invoke-AsBuiltReport.VMware.vSphere The error remains: New-AsBuiltReport : The argument for the VsanDiskGroup parameter cannot be verified. The argument is NULL or empty. Provide an argument that is not NULL or empty and run the command again. |

@mpacholke Can you please provide a verbose output or screenshot of where it is failing? |
|
It is a german windows jump host |
|
What vSphere & VSAN version are you using? What is the VSAN InfoLevel configured for within the report configuration JSON? |
|
Here the versions and info's: ESXi vCenter : 8.0.2 23319993 "InfoLevel": { I varied the setting for vSAN to 1 and 0 but the error remains |

Can you please provide further information about your VSAN cluster? Is it ESA or OSA? Hybrid or SSD? Try and run this and share the output file. $VcenterServer = "Your vCenter Server name"
$VsanCluster = "Your VSAN cluster name"

Hi sorry for the delay. I only have access to the customer site at dedicated time frames. This is a vSAN ESA (all-nvme) cluster.
I have to anonymize some data: cat .\Output.log Start der Windows PowerShell-Aufzeichnung Die Aufzeichnung wurde gestartet. Die Ausgabedatei ist ".\Output.log". Ende der Windows PowerShell-Aufzeichnung |
|
i run the script again and after some errors i got this tail . I removed all personal information: nStart der Windows PowerShell-Aufzeichnung Konfigurationsname: https://aka.ms/vscode-powershell Die Aufzeichnung wurde gestartet. Die Ausgabedatei ist ".\Output.log".

Hi, |
I have run the script a week ago in a ESA environment. And that ran succesfully. you could try my earlier suggestion to bypass the diskgroup check. |
|
Lets simplify this check, could you please report the output of the following. Could you also provide the output of the following?
|
Hi ,the result is true. PS C:\Users\Administrator> $VsanCluster.VsanEsaEnabled Name Version AsBuiltReport.Core 1.4.0 |
Yes, i tested it last week and it works. I have a nearly complete report - thanks for your advice. |
|
General enhancement: |
Please raise this as a separate feature request |
Did you successfully test this using v1.3.4.1, or did you use your modified script? |
|
I used the modified script |
|
You might be in luck. I will be working on a customer project in January deploying multiple vSAN ESA clusters so I will have an opportunity to look at this properly then. |
vSAN 8 ESA has no disk groups anymore. The argument is NULL or empty
Perhaps you can skip the vSAN disk group information in the script ?
Update:
Test with the RC run into the same error:
ModuleType Version Name ExportedCommands
Script 1.3.4 AsBuiltReport.VMware.vSphere Invoke-AsBuiltReport.VMware.vSphere
New-AsBuiltReport : The argument for the VsanDiskGroup parameter cannot be verified. The argument is NULL or empty. Provide an argument that is not NULL or empty, and
run the command again.
