Also you can visit www.open-e.com and type in the search box "Hyper" and you can get many result for that.

Thanks, but these are threads related to using Open-E DSS as a storage target for Hyper-V hosts, which is obviously very common and I can do this fine.

I am trying to install Open-E DSS as a Hyper-V Guest for a lab test, I guess it can't be done due to Open-E DSS not supporting the Virtual NIC hardware supplied by Hyper-V

Try Virtual box http://www.virtualbox.org/ it could help you.
And try to connect a Hyper-V machine to a virtual box machine, I did not test it but it should works some how.

With ESX 4.0 / 4.1 you can use OpenE as guest.
But no vmware tools.
