I am not very familiar with cephfs and would like someone else
recommend you how to migrate cephfs data from one pool to another.
But if I had to do this I think I would try this way: add the new pool
to the existing cephfs, create a new dir on this fs, using file layout
[1] set the new pool for this dir and move the files here.
