How do I Turn Off SecondaryStorageVM Creation
I'm using S3 Object store, and no NFS caching.
So why is CloudStack trying to create an SecondaryStorageVM, and how to I make it stop?

If that's the case, then you'd better create a SSVM template from HyperV, then upload to somewhere.
If you don't want to start a SSVM at all, try to set "secondary.storage.vm" = false.

SSVM starts, but the image doesn't appear to be Hyper-V compatible. Runs at 12% CPU, and I never see the console :(

SecondaryStorageVM is independent from NFS. The secondary storage vm is used to download template/ISO, backup snapshot from primary storage to S3 etc.
Do you have a problem to start ssvm? AFAIK, system vm template is stored in S3 automatically after mgt server is up, then during ssvm startcommand, mgt server will send a copycommand to hypervisor, to copy the system vm template from S3 into primary storage, if you implement this command properly, then ssvm should be started?
