STEPS TO REPRODUCE

- name: Adding disk to the machine
  vmware_guest_disk:
      hostname: "{{ vcenter_server }}"
      username: "{{ vcenter_user }}"
      password: "{{ vcenter_pass }}"
      datacenter: "{{datacenter_name}}"
      name: "{{outer_item.value.server_name}}"
      validate_certs: no
      disk:
        - size_gb: "{{ outer_item.value['disk' ~ item ~ '_size'] }}"
          type: thin

  with_sequence: start=1 end={{outer_item.value.tdisk}}

EXPECTED RESULTS

It should add disk on scsi controller 1 and controller 1:0
