Quite a few questions!
I won't be able to answer them in the full detail you need but I can help. Highly recommend reaching out to your VMware account manager or contact VMware Sales directly.
1) what is the license mechanism in VMware VDI for Microsoft OS (win10).
Licensing in Horizon is based on named user or concurrent users. Very similar to how Microsoft RDS licensing works. OS Type does not matter and licensing for OS is up to customer.
2) Do we need RDS license in VMWare Horizon Linked Clone for 30.
No, RDS licenses are only needed for RDSH Apps published through Horizon. Because RDSH Apps do not require a VDI desktop, they can be presented on any device. Linked Clones are currently deprecated and will be removed in the next Horizon release, please see Instant Clone documentation from VMware for details.

3) VDI will be on Primary and DR site and are replicated from Primary site to DR site , incase Primary site down user will connect to DR site VDI , what is the best practices for VMware VDI Linked clone VMs to replicate at DR site . does replication work in VDI linked clone VM , what components do i need to replicate at DR site .
This is a significant conversation, I recommend reading through Cloud Pod Architecture and Multi-Site Horizon Implementation at this Techzone link.

4) if Primary VDI site down , then how User will connect to DR site VDI desktops, how thin client automatically connect to DR VDI environment .(Users are on different location )
See above reply on question three.
