Hyper-V: SMB3 ODX; UNMAP/TRIM
Details
The Cisco HX platform is fully qualified for all VMware vSphere VAAI-NAS capabilities that include: Native SS for LC, Space Reserve, File Cloning and Extended Stats.
The Cisco HX platform does not support cross volume/snapshot operations as it is a Software Defined NAS array.
VAAI = VMware APIs for Array Integration
ODX = Offloaded Data Transfers
UNMAP/TRIM support allows the Windows operating system to communicate the inactive block IDs to the storage system. The storage system can wipe these unused blocks internally.
