A technique provides mobility to VSPs. The technique involves receiving, by processing circuitry, a VSP move command from a user. The VSP move command specifies a source VSP and a destination. The technique further involves identifying, by the processing circuitry and in response to the VSP move command, multiple source data objects which are configured to store data from the context of the source VSP. The multiple source data objects reside in a source storage pool. The technique further involves, after the multiple source data objects are identified, transforming the multiple source data objects into multiple destination data objects which are configured to store data from the context of a destination VSP at the destination. The multiple destination data objects reside in a destination storage pool which is different from the source storage pool. Such operation effectively provides VSP migration from source to destination.
