Vmware_guest_disk fails to add nvme disk for vmware host

Hello,
I am trying to add an nvme disk using vmware_guest_disk
My code is:

  • hosts: localhost
    gather_facts: no
    tasks:
    • include_vars: ./vars/secrets.yml

    • include_vars: ./vars/lab_dc_vars.yml

    • name: Add Disk to vm host
      vmware_guest_disk:
      hostname: “{{ vcenter_server }}”
      username: “{{ devtstuser }}”
      password: “{{ passwddev }}”
      datacenter: “{{ datacenter_name }}”
      validate_certs: false
      name: “{{ vmname }}”
      disk:
      - size_gb: “{{ secondDisk }}”
      state: present
      autoselect_datastore: true
      controller_type: “nvme”
      controller_number: 0
      unit_number: 3
      disk_mode: ‘independent_persistent’
      delegate_to: localhost
      register: vminfo


Fails with error

Thanks in advance

Does it work if you specify a scsi_controller?

When I set it it creates a scsi disk not an nvme .

What version of the community.vmware are you using? I don’t find this exact error message in the source code.
