For the DB and LOG, I would create the files on the local drives, then
mirror the DB and LOG to them, then delete the copy on the SAN once the
mirroring completes.  For the disk pools, you can define the new disk
pools on the local drives, then make the SAN disk pools read only, and,
if you have some time, they will shrink by themselves, then you can
issue move data command to move whats left.
