Not sure Datanodes can work like that, I thought there was some magic that determined which data went where. As for the Ariel DB copy there is is:
To copy the data from the old hardware to the new appliance (targetserver), type the following command:
Example 1: rsync -avz /store/ariel/ root@targetserver:/store/ariel
Example 2: scp -pr /store/ariel root@targetserver:/store/However you want to do it in a screen session and probably want to do it in smaller batches depending on the size.

Best of luck to you. This is a manual process of copying the ariel files from one to the other via scp or something similar. If you reach out to support I believe they have a script that will help.
