How to move templates to different Org vDC

For some reason, I cannot figure out how to move a VM or template from one Org vDC to another Org vDC in the same vCloud Organization.  I'm running vCD 5.5.. I want to move my VMs and templates to a newly created Org vDC that I attached to an existing Org.  But I do not see how to move the VMs/templates from the old Org vDC to the new one.

Is this even possible?

Do the two Org vDCs use different storage profiles?  If so, it's easy ... set the default profile on the catalog to the new one and then copy objects into the catalog again.  this will do the migration.

Otherwise, the catalog will use "any available" profile to the organization and just dump the vApp/Media into any datastore.

If they use the same storage profile, you can consolidate and then storage vmotion them to any other datastore in the same storage profile.
