SVMotion is a VI 2.5 client plugin (the FIRST released, third-party plugin in fact) that extends the client's functionality by providing an integrated, graphical tool that can be used to invoke storage VMotion (SVMotion) operations. This plugin is not supported by VMware. In fact, the plugin is not anywhere close to supported by VMware because it is the result of a two-week dive into the inner-workings of the VI client libraries with popular reflection tools (reverse-engineering). l o s t c r e a t i o n s is working on a white paper that describes how to build VI plugins.

I just released a new version of SVMotion. It is online at VIPlugins.com. The new version includes a client and server installer. The client installer can be installed on any machine with a VI 2.5 client, but the server installer requires a system with VC 2.5 installed on it. If you install the server extension, the SVMotion plugin will be available to all users who connect to that VC server.
