Jumbo frame for vmxnet3 was introduced in commit 

commit 2fdd835f992c2cdf55fc528fea9312c73313103c
Author: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>
Date:   Fri Mar 4 10:08:00 2016 -0800

This is in release 16.04 and later.  Either you need to upgrade to a version 16.04 or onwards or you need to backport that change to your release.
