Adding multiple NFS storage and migrate volumes to other

Hello All, We are using NFS shared storage between hosts,and have running vms. Now we are planning to remove existing disks and replace it with with different disks. Is there any way we can add one more NFS say NFS2 and migrate all volumes to NFS2 while we upgrade primary NFS,is it supported?

just add another NFS storage domain in the same DC, then --^. (notice live storage migration causes a snapshot to be created. live merge is just around the corner with 3.5 pending el7.1 release (and sanity testing)

Sure, create and activate a second NFS based storage domain. Move the VMs over (right-click VM, -> Move). To deactivate the first SD, when it's empty, first put it in maintenance, in the DC>Storage tab On Sun, Feb 1, 2015 at 10:27 AM, mad Engineer <themadengin33r@gmail.com> wrote:

Thank you all for your quick response, i have one more query,if i pause all vms and put hosts to maintenance and then in the NAS after adding disks can i copy data from share1{with older disks} to share2{new disks} and later remove share1 and rename share2 to share1.Finally resume hosts and vms,can this method work? There is no change in the NFS ip address nor in sharename,only change is in hard disk type. This is our backup approach if we can not find one more NAS. Do you find any issue with this approach.
