After this discussion I am still not sure if all features of vmware are supported if we use NFS instead of ISCSI. If a vm is provisioned on NFS will VMotion and H-A still function for that vm ?
james
Yes, all are still supported.

Obviously this is something you may want to take up with VMware support but I think it does not matter which type of datastore you are using. In my environment, at least, we run only nfs datastores and using vmotion and HA effectively.

Yes HA & VMotion work and are supported over NFS.
