Comment 2 Niyaz Akhtar Ansari 2018-08-09 09:02:23 UTC
The issue is only with Powered on Vms. 
It works fine with powered off VMs

Comment 3 Sudhir Mallamprabhakara 2018-08-09 13:43:52 UTC
Nijaz, Is this regression??

Comment 4 Greg Blomquist 2018-08-09 13:46:19 UTC
Adam, we think this is a limitation in vmware.  Can you verify that?

Comment 6 Adam Grare 2018-08-09 16:11:44 UTC
This is correct, you cannot extend an independent - nonpersistent disk while the VM is powered on (called hot-extend).  If you try with the vSphere client you get the same error message.
