VMware VAAI for QNAP NFS not working

Good Day
Have a VMWare 6.7U3h Host. Qnap is a TS-873U-RP with FW 4.4.1.1146.
QNAP-QVAAI_NFS3-3.0-2.vib is installed on VMWare host, host is rebootet
If i add a NFS Datastore from the Qnap NAS, Hardware Acceleration still has the status "not supported". It does not matter if i add the NFS Store with Version 3 or Version 4.1.
Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks

I would update to the latest qts first (4.4.1 is out of date)
if it still does not work..contact qnap via ticket

just had the remote session with qnap r&d. they will do some more research on their site to figure it out. vaai registration failed for the nas share
vmkfstools -Ph /vmfs/volumes/SHARENAME -v 20
Output we have this error
QVAAIv3: register failed with magic number
NAS VAAI Supported: NO
i should get an update once qnap has figured it out...

Hi, in my case the problem was about enble NFSv2/3 too, because the vaai community only talks via this version, in the next update will be resolved, said by support.

Have a new remote session next week. seems to be a problem of the acutall vaai plugin.
