Changing Active/Standby VDS Uplinks on VSAN network

I need to move the active VSAN switch on our cluster.  I've been told the best way to do this is switch the active uplink to standby and the stanby uplink to active for the port group is the most graceful way of doing it.  Has anyone done it this way?

Thanks

Yes, if your network is properly set up, you can change the Teaming policy without downtime or traffic interruptions.

Just move the standby adapter to active and the active adapter to standby for the vsan traffic portgroup and save the configuration.
