Subject on this thread is : "migrate WHOLE cluster", so, I meant to migrate
THE WHOLE CLUSTER not only a part of it.

If my cluster is made by 100TB, I have to migrate 100TB of datas.

So, can I manually replace all mons and osds one per time?
For example: add 1 mon, remove 1 mon, add 1 mon, remove 1 mon and so
on until all mons are replace.
Then: add 1 osd, wait for rebalance, remove 1 osd, wait for rebalance
and so on ultil all OSD are migrated.

This should work with no downtime and no data loss.
