@Scott, already created websites will be transferred to the specified folder too and they will be down until the process ends. Thus, it's recommended to change the default vhost directory during maintenance timeframe when the server isn't loaded.
What effect will changing the vhosts location have on active sites? Will they be slow or become unavailable?
