I'm afraid the only method on how to team your NICs  is to give them pass-through to the guest OS and then install their own driver from vendor (Intel, Broadcom, HP), and create a team that way.

Stop by my blog if you'd like 🙂 I dabble in vSphere troubleshooting, PowerCLI scripting and NetApp storage - and I share my journeys at http://vmxp.wordpress.com/

for what do you wan't to team your vmnics?

normally you team the nics on the vswitch and you don't need no more to team them on the OS...
