Migrate SOFS Role between 2012 R2 Clusters

$

I have a sofs role configured on a 2012R2 3 node cluster, and I need it moved to a different cluster so that the nodes on the current cluster can be rebuilt. Both clusters use a CSV. The share that is used by the sofs sits on a CSV (connected by iscsi on each node)

Im trying to understand the advice here:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn659431.aspx

Method 1 is confusing because it discusses migrating virtual machine storage with VMM but I dont see how this relates to a SOFS.

Method 2 seems most applicable, however when I use the 'Copy Cluster Roles Wizard, and I select the source cluster, it brings up a list of role available to be migrated, and I cannot select the single SOFS I want to move. If I check one box, it automatically checks the box for every role on the cluster, and I dont want to move everything.

Also, im confused about the process of the migration and what exactly migrates once I get past the first issue above.

Should I be running this wizard to migrate the role to the new cluster, then connecting the iscsi for the lun to the 3 destination nodes and mounting as a csv ? and then disconnecting the csv from the source cluster ? or vice versa ? or?

cant find a good guide for this. Any advice or pointers in the right direction much appreciated.

tks
