How is the Storage Migration Service extension installed for the orchestrator server?

The Storage Migration Service extension is installed for the orchestrator server through Windows Admin Center because this tool provides a centralized management interface for Windows Server workloads and services. Utilizing Windows Admin Center simplifies the installation process by allowing administrators to manage servers and services from a web-based interface without needing extensive command-line knowledge.

Windows Admin Center offers a user-friendly way to access various extensions and services, including those related to storage migration. When you use this tool, it streamlines the setup and effectively integrates the Storage Migration Service with other management tasks. This approach minimizes the potential for errors that could occur if installations were handled manually or via scripts, ensuring a smoother deployment of the storage migration functionalities.

While manual command line installations, automatic installations during server setup, and PowerShell scripts are valid methods for certain services, the choice of using Windows Admin Center specifically aligns with the intended ease of management and the orchestration capabilities provided.
