Cause

RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines 5.x versions are only supported for vSphere 8.0.U2 (Refer to the Dell VxRail Simple Support Matrix for a VxRail release that can be used). LCM precheck was configured to block upgrades to unsupported 8.x versions when RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines 5.x is present.
