Hyper-V data cannot be stored on a disk witness that is not already used by another virtual machine.

I'm trying to move a VM from local to shared storage to make it highly available. The shared storage (S:) was active on the server I moved the files from. I imported it into Hyper-V and selected it as a VM when configuring it as a HA virtual machine role in Failover Cluster Manager. It failed with the following:

There was a failure configuring the virtual machine role for 'TEST'.
The path 'S:\Hyper-V' for a virtual machine configuration is on the disk witness for the cluster. Hyper-V data cannot be stored on a disk witness that is not already used by another virtual machine.

This seems to suggest that there must always be at least one VM on the shared storage before you can import another? How do you get the first VM on there?
