Can we use local datastore for volume provisioning with vsphere-csi-driver

[brathina-spectro]

Environment:

• vsphere-csi-driver v3.2.0 / v3.3.0 (with topology based placement enabled)
• k8s version 1.29.x
• vcenter version is v7.0.x

Here is our typical vcenter view looks like. Only specific top-level entities are tagged with labels as shown below

• Datacenter [ k8s-region: dc ]
  • Cluster1 [ k8s-zone: cluster1 ]
    • ESX host1
      • Local Datastore1
    • ESX host2
      • Local Datastore2
  • Cluster2
    • ESX host3
      • Local Datastore3
    • ESX host4
      • Local Datastore4
    • ESX host5
      • Local Datastore5

For the topology above, trying to provision a volume for a node residing under Cluster1 results in an error that says,

No compatible datastores found for accessibility requirements [map[failure-domain.beta.kubernetes.io/region:dc failure-domain.beta.kubernetes.io/zone:cluster1]] pertaining to vCenter \"vcenter.example.com\"

Is a shared datastore mandatory for volume provisioning? Can't we provision volumes with local datastores alone ?
