How to change view vm's from using one lun to an other

I'm trying to change my view vm storage from iscsi attached storage to fusionio cards.

Instead of telling what I have done, could somebody tell what I should do to change the pool datastorage from the existing to the faster disk?

Is it a pool with full or linked clones? Floating or Dedicated desktops?

How many ESX hosts do you have in the cluster?

Are you using "Tiered Storage"? (This is when the replica and the linked clones are not on the same lun:s).

Hi,

Follow these steps,

Present the new LUNs to esx cluster (to all hosts) hosting view vms.

Edit each view pool, go to  provisioning settings, change datastores to new LUNs

Perform a pool level rebalance
