Description

I'm having trouble finding examples or references to methods that could possibly allow me to move/migrate a datastore into a datastore cluster. I've found a reference to vim.storagepod and can get various configuration/settings from it. However I'm not sure how to take a datastore object and add/remove it from the datastore cluster.
