I came across this article as I was trying to validate if VAAI really works on Freenas with ISCSI. I got really exited and for the last 2 days I've been playing around trying to figure out how to get it to work on my setup.
Unfortunately I cannot get windows 2012R2 or 2016 to detect that it is on a thin provisioned disk no matter what I did.
Has anyone try this and get it to work ?? I wonder if it requires a specific storage backends to make it work.
I was able to find a different blog that shows it's working with pure storage backend, but no matter what I did I cant get it to work on freenas storage backend.
