Data provider fails when data gateway is running locally on the Hyper-V machine with following message in the log:
ERROR Error during processing HyperV env.: <machine-name> - The term 'DetectCluster' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
This is a product issue and will be fixed in one of the next releases. To avoid this issue, deploy the data gateway on another machine.
