Explanation

When a virtual machine is deployed on a vSAN datastore, it must be assigned at least one storage policy. If the administrator did not explicitly assign a storage policy when provisioning the new VM, vSAN will apply the vSAN Default Storage Policy to the virtual machine. The vSAN Default Storage Policy is a pre-configured storage policy that is automatically applied to virtual machines when no other storage policy is assigned. According to VMware's official guide, "If a storage policy is not explicitly assigned to a virtual machine when it is provisioned, the virtual machine objects will be protected based on the vSAN Default Storage Policy configurations." This means that the vSAN Default Storage Policy will apply to the VM objects even if the administrator did not explicitly assign a storage policy when provisioning the new VM.
