MSA 2040 reorganisation of disks

Hi all,

We have an MSA2040 with 2 additional shelves. It's populated with 300GB SAS disks.

I need to install SSD drives to improve performance on our VMware clones, and the reseller tells me I need to install these onto the MSA itself which I have no doubt is correct. However, I have 3 vdisks that use disks on the MSA as well as on other shelves (so the vdisk uses disks spread across shelves). Is there a way to move these around natively without having to build new vdisks and migrating data on the VMware side? Can any of this be done on the SMU side?

Thanks

Anthony
