VAAI is a storage partner technology. So you would need to have support on your storage for this. If you do it may be able to offload the linked clone operations for better speed and also fix a major disk alignment issue that all linked clones currently have. I know NetApp has a plugin to support VAAI; but not sure of all the vendors that support it. (For NetApp you have to install a plugin on all your ESXi hosts)
