I'm trying to mount a vSphere volume in a pod but I keep getting:
vsphere_volume_util.go:123] Cloud provider not initialized properly
/etc/kubernetes/environment/vsphere.conf

In the "vmWare vSphere Web Client" I see:
<mltdfrd01.xx.com>
<Frankfurt>
<dfrclupoc01-001>
And under that store I have a folder "dockvols" with a subdirectory "11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111".

I tried different volume paths but I think the problem is earlier in the process.
Log of the node starting at the moment I create the pod:

Thanks for any help, Milo
Seems I missed a lot of details:
