You cannot use the IPv6 protocol to connect to the remote VDS on a Windows Vista Service Pack 1-based computer from a Windows Server 2008-based computer
Consider the following scenario:
In this scenario, the connection fails. Additionally, you receive the following error message in the Disk Management console:
Disk Management could not start Virtual Disk service (VDS) on 2001:4898:1000:412E:D7D1:DF52:9F83. This can happen if the remote computer does not support VDS, or if a connection cannot be established because it was blocked by Windows Firewall.
For additional information about diagnosing and correcting this problem, see Troubleshooting Disk Management in Disk Management Help.
You can connect to the remote VDS by using a NetBIOS name, a DNS name, or an IPv4 address.
This issue is specific to a domain that is managed by a Windows Server 2003 R2-based domain controller. If you have a Windows Vista SP1 computer and a Windows Server 2008 computer in a domain that is managed by a Windows Server 2008-based domain controller, you do not receive the error message that is mentioned in the "Symptoms" section.

didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each

edits), please consult a professional.
