Lun Offset Question - NetApp Filers

$

Im familiar with how VM's are  aligned (or misaligned) in this case.... and how NetApp recommends to  get them aligned. (MBRalign or the VSC plugin), which brings me to my  question.

 

We  have roughly 900 or so VMDK's that are showing as NOT aligned (dont ask  me how, long story short, a W2K8 template had the offset wrong and a  ton of VM's were spun up with it)

 

So...  would it make sense and are there any cons against creating an offset  LUN and vmotioning all the VM's to that lun? Or in this case, LUNS.

 

Also,  I run a powercli script that does a get-wmi command against all VM's in  vCenter to output this data. Some VM's have multiple VMDK's and some of  the VM's VMDK's have different offsets. Would I need to separate the  VMDK's for each VM that has different offsets?

 

Thanks!
