Is there a VDS hardware provider for Starwind? I'm doing some testing (2 Hyper-V 2008 R2 hosts, Starwind SAN & NAS Free V6 and SCVMM 2008 R2) and ran into an issue with SAN migration.
When I attempt a SAN migration I get an error that it's disabled because the VMM server has no VDS provider installed.
I was under the impression that I could do SAN migration with Starwind without using a Hyper-V cluster.

1) You have to have a VDS provider to do a "SAN migration" with Hyper-V.

2) StarWind does not have VDS as future of the whole VDS thing is a bit questionable (MS is deprecating it). So I don't think there would be any ever...
