Migration of VCenter from local datastore to vSAN

Hi,

A simple question (hopefully).

I'm looking to migrate a VCenter (5.5) from a local datastore to vSAN. I have licences installed for vmotion/storage vmotion on the cluster hosts. As the easiest way to migrate the VCenter VM is via itself, I'm just looking for clarification that I can do this without any outage and without impact on the VCenter.

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks.
