  Question: How do I move host ESX1 and datastore data1/ lun1 to new storage group
"Production", without lost of data, or VM's
.  Ideally I would like to do this hot, but I can schedule an outage.

 

From VMware: ESX5i  hosts ESX1 and ESX2 share datastores Data1, Data2 & Data3.

On the EMC CX3: Both hosts are in storage group "Test.Dev" and the luns are Lun1, Lun2 & Lun3 respectively.

ESX1's VM's only reside on datastore Data1 /Lun1, ESX2's VM's only reside on datastore Data2 / Lun2.  Datastore data3 /Lun3 has no VM's or
data on it.

 

Extra info: There are 4 other luns not in use and not
assigned to storage groups. The storage abric is all ISCSI, no FC fabric, CX3-40C,
All datastores are VMFS5, there are no clusters present , or snapshots taken.
