After investigation by the IBM team, XCOPY (offloaded copy) does not work with IBM FlashSystem on ESXi 7. The issue does not reproduce on ESXi 8.
Since ESXi 7 is end-of-life, no bug will be opened with VMware on this topic.
This is a known limitation: copy-offload will always fall back to the non-offloaded (slow) copy path for IBM FlashSystem on ESXi 7. No fix is planned.
