upload to workstation server is not supported

Hi

From what I can understand from various articles about VMware Workstation 8 and from the manual you are supposed to be able to upload local virtual machines to both vCenter/vSphere clusters and VMware Workstation 8 servers?

But then I try to upload my local virtual machine to the registered vmware workstation 8 server I get the error:

"Uploading to Workstation Server is not supported"

The VMware workstation 8 manual says it is? or am I reading this wrong:


Upload a Virtual Machine to a Remote Server

When you upload a virtual machine to a remote server, Workstation copies the virtual machine to the remote host and datastore that you select. The original virtual machine remains on the host system.

Prerequisites


Verify that the remote   server is running Workstation 8.x or later or ESX, ESXi, or vCenter Server   4.1 or later.

Thanks for any help,

S
