I have 8200 with currently ISCSI 10GB connection to 4 node HyperV 2012 R2 cluster via switch.
I want to migrate from ISCSI to FC, and have bought 4 port FC adapters for direct connect to FC cards in servers.
Can I just put one host to "maintenance" mode and change their connectivity from ISCSI to FC?
Will CSV from HyperV work in that "mixed" mode during migration?
Is it possible and does have someone experience with that?

If my memory and understanding is correct, a VV can/should(is only supported) only be presented using one protocol, so what you probably needs to do is put servers in maintenace mode to add FC adapters. When all hosts have both iSCSI and FC connectivity you need to create new volumes to present using FC and live migrate them to the new volumes before deleting the old ones.
