To resolve this issue, follow below-provided steps, please do not skip
- Run ls -ltrh and identify the device UUID that is being used for /store.

rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 49 Nov 26 12:06 store -> /vmfs/volumes/534c2849-d9fc66a0-d87a-180373edc54c 2. Identify the disk device by using the below command:
vmkfstools -P /vmfs/volumes/vmfs/volumes/534c2849-d9fc66a0-d87a-180373edc54cExample:[root@hostname:~] vmkfstools -P /vmfs/volumes/572398ac-6202c2cb-7712-70106f55c5a0
vfat-0.04 file system spanning 1 partitions.

mpx.vmhba32:C0:T0:L0:8Is Native Snapshot Capable: NO
3. Re-format the device disk from above step with vfat filesystem (this will create a new UUID) vmkfstools -C vfat /dev/disks/
mpx.vmhba32:C0:T0:L0:8 [root@hostname:~] vmkfstools -C vfat /dev/disks/mpx.vmhba32:C0:T0:L0:8
create fs deviceName:'/dev/disks/mpx.vmhba32:C0:T0:L0:8', fsShortName:'vfat', fsName:'(null)'
deviceFullPath:/dev/disks/mpx.vmhba32:C0:T0:L0:8 deviceFile:mpx.vmhba32:C0:T0:L0:8
Checking if remote hosts are using this device as a valid file system. This may take a few seconds...

4. Re-create symlink with new UUID:[root@hostname:~] ln -snf /vmfs/volumes/<new-UUID from above step> store
5. Copy packages, var under locker directory from working host to non-working host. (Same version, build can be different)
6. Retry the scan/remediation.
