You would need to create a new pool and migrate the data to that new pool. Replicated pool fronting an EC pool for RBD is a known-bad workload: http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/rados/operations/cache-tiering/#a-word-of-caution but others mileage may vary I suppose.
In order to migrate you could do an RBD at a time, I would probably take a snapshot and than do an `rbd cp` operation from the poolA/snap to poolB/image If you are okay with the VMs being powered down you could do an `rbd mv` which doesnt support renames across pools, though I would prefer the cp method. You could also do a wholesale pool copy using `rados cppool` see http://ceph.com/geen-categorie/ceph-pool-migration/ best of luck.
