We were unable to test it. I don't remember if it was disabled for VMware (doesn't look like it), as Brian Angus did most of the coding and testing to get it into 4.1. There is no hypervisor-specific code, we wrote it against KVM and it just worked when we tested against Xen. It uses the same calls used to add nics to routers. There's no reason to think it wouldn't work with VMware, again we just couldn't test it and nobody with VMware was noticing to help.
