HI,

 

does anyone have already ESXi 7.0 up and running and can approve that VAAI is working?

In our Setup we get this not running.

Aha! This worked:

esxcli software vib install -n NetAppNasPlugin -d file:////vmfs/volumes/b3c3f044-abc1234/ova/NetAppNasPlugin.zip

I found a way to activate the "Snapshot Offload":

 

1. Shutdown the VM.

2. Set this advanced option to TRUE: snapshot.alwaysAllowNative

3. Start the VM.

 

Then a snapshot of the VM is doing a file clone:

The question is now, how to enable that for all VM's...
