I couldn't find any information on the web about Vaai support on the NetApp Ontap simulators.
In my vLab i have singel node installed with a NFS export to a vSphere 6.0 farm. All the ESXi servers have de NFS VaaI plugin installed, but on the datastore "Hardware Acceleration" is still not supported. 
Does anyone know if Vaai is support/availible on a 8.3 simulator?

This will list all the vservers and tell you which ones have it disabled:

 

vserver nfs show -fields vstorage

 

Then turn it on where appropriate:

 

vserver nfs mod -vstorage enabled -vserver <vserver name>

It works, but you have to enable it on the SVM.  Then remount the datastore or bounce the host.
