Move VCenter from local datastore to SAN without SVmotion

Question:

I have 2 different VMWare environments; 1 production, 1 development.

Production has a Essentials Plus license (3 hosts&vcenter, host vmotion), Vcenter is a Linux appliance, located on a local drive of one of the hosts. Want to move it to our SAN (with or without shutting it down).

Development has a Essentials license (3 hosts&vcenter without vmotion), Windows VCenter. Located on local&nas, but need to move it to a SAN (and, with or without shutting down).

 

What is the best way to accomplish these tasks? Thought (in case of Linux appliance) something with shutting down > copy folder from datastore > local drive > san..

But maybe there are better ways to run this task.

 

Thanks in advance.
