verify the /var/log/vmware/vpxd/vpxd.log and check any errors :

[Originator@6876 sub=HostPicker opID=sps-Main-407637-499-33] Couldn't find any candidate host that satisfies all constraints

error vpxd[47211 No hosts are compatible with provided version 6.7.2


Solution:

     1.Upgraded hardware version to 13 as your new esxi was 6.7.2.

     2.DNS issue resolved on host by changing hosts file on VCSA server.(make sure the IP and DNS names is mapped properly) after login to VCSA using root user.

     3.restarted Service on VCSA
