+= Migrating CNS volumes between datastores for vSphere
+
+If you are running out of space in your current datastore, or want to move to a more performant datastore, you can migrate VMware vSphere Cloud Native Storage (CNS) volumes between datastores. This applies to both attached and detached volumes.
+
+.Limitations
+* Requires VMware vSphere 8.0.2 or later or vSphere 7.0 Update 3o or later.
+
+* Only one volume can be migrated at a time.
+
+* RWX volumes are not supported.
+
+* CNS volume should only be migrated to a datastore that is shared with all hosts that make up the {product-title} cluster.
+
+* Migrating volumes between different datastore in different datacenters is not supported.
