How to move VM's to a new storage AND new hosts

$

Hi,

I'm having a hard time figuring out, how I am going to move all VM's from an NFS storage to a new iscsi storage (HP SAN). We are also introducing new hardware for the hosts, so all in all this will be a whole new vCenter environment (also going from vSphere 4.1 to 5.5). My first thought was to attach the new storage to the old hosts. Then do a storage migration one by one over a certain time (powered off machines), remove the VM from the old vCenter, and then add them to the new vCenter environment. But we have exhausted all the NICs on the old hosts, so I cannot attach the new storage, and I cannot share a vmkernel port for both iscsi and nfs.

 

Do you have any suggestions how I can approach this?
