existing storage passthrough hyper-v

Hi

I have an existing storage pool on a windows 10 computer. I'm going to set up a vm of server essentials 2016 hosted on a hyper-v server 2016. At the moment I'm still testing on my win 10 computer with hyper-v installed. I would like my vm of server essentials
to manage my existing storage pool. I have taken the pool offline and used disk passthrough so my vm can access it. The disk shows up in the vm but it is not recognized as a storage pool just as a disk. this is strange as it is actually 2 disks pooled. Can
I get the server essentails vm to take control of the existing pool? Is this because my host (win 10) has storage spaces and being the host automatically claims it.?

Thanks!
