Confusion over export/import in Hyper-V 2008 moving VM to new SAN.

Hi there.  I need to move a bunch of VMs from one SAN to another, but to keep them on the same host.

I'm running Hyper-V on windows 2008 R2.  I reckon the best way to go about this is the old export/import method, but I'd got a few questions.

1. If I export, then import again, how do I change the location of the VM?  when I export and import again, the VM appears to have moved to the C drive of the host, even after I've move the exported files to the new SAN before importing!  Any ideas?

2. I then copied the files over to the new SAN and manually changed the file path of the VM and the VHDs in the properties of the VM, but I cannot delete the old VM as it's in use still. 

Any help would be appreciated.  thanks,

Jonny
