VMWare released a feature that allows vSphere users to move CSI volumes between datastores via the vSphere client UI

vsphere 7: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.storage.doc/GUID-536DEB75-84F5-48DC-A425-3BF703B8F54E.html

vSphere 8: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/8.0/vsphere-storage/GUID-536DEB75-84F5-48DC-A425-3BF703B8F54E.html

We want to avoid customers to use this feature until we fully test it and provide a tool that performs all the required pre-flight checks in order to ensure that the volume can be safely migrated.

We need to update the vsphere CSI documentation and mention that migrating persistent container volumes between datastores with the vsphere UI is not supported with OCP.
