Hello Team,
Need your help on this issue.
Issue Description : When we initiate cloning of any VM on datastore which support VAAI ( hardware acceleraion ), we see, it is slow.
Findings :
VAAI ( XCOPY ) does not get initiated, I checked from esxtop , Parameter like CLONE_RD CLONE_WR , does not show any activity.
VAAI is enabled on ESXi host.
No command failure messages in vmkernel or vmkwarning logs.
ESXi 5.5 U2 version.
In another similar setup, but with version esxi 5.1 , it work fine.
Do we need to VAAI filter attached to device ?
Any thoughts on this ?
Regards
Mohammed Emaad
