Need to change lun path on SAN for vmotion but have 1 VM on there

Issue:  The Lun path for one of my ESX hosts is different than all the others so I can't use Vmotion on it.  Good thing is there is only 1 host on it.  The one host is using one LUN in which im going to be changing the path on.  My question is this OS has a 2 other data drives connecting to it coming from another SAN.  I am not changing those paths.

 

 

What is the best way to do this?  This is what I was thinking ... please chime in as I have f*kd up **** thinking that its the best way to do things.  Thanks in advance

 

 

Shut down the VM .. edit the VM and remove the 2 disks.

 

 

Clone or backup the VM ( I have esx ranger)

 

 

Change the paths

 

 

Restore the VM and add the 2 data drives again.

 

 

My questions are

 

 

1.  WIll this work and if not whats a better way

 

 

2.  Will this way destory my other 2 data drives when I try to reconnect them?
