I'm not sure if the templates are automatically transferred , but it's worth checking before detaching the storage.

It often happens to me using the same export domain to share resources between 3 different environments. Not tried with heterogeneous env yet (eg activated on 4.3 and trying to activate in 4.4, or vice versa) but I think it should give the same error message.

Keep the export domain attached only to 1 environment at a time... it's way more safer. Usually each engine updates some metafiles on the storage domain and when both try to do it ... you got a bad situation there. Attach to 4.3 , move VMs, power off them , detach the storage domain - so you can attach it to 4.4 and migrate those VMs. And don't forget the templates the VMs were created from.
