I doubt SVMotion will handle it as VMware does not know what is inside an RDM LUN.

Subject: Snapmanager for Virtual Infrastructure, RDM to VMFS/NFS Migrations...

Has anyone migrated from RDM to a standard VMFS or NFS Datastore? I was hoping Svmotion would handle the move without powering down the virtual machine but it looks like that may not be supported.

I'd like to accomplish this without outages (or extremely limited downtime for the hosts), any ideas?
