Repair Path Not Working with ESRI DEM in Mosaic Dataset

I've got ~200 mosaic datasets (>7TB raw data) containing DEM that cover a very large area that were provided to us with paths that aren't appropriate now the data has been moved.

Interesting enough if I open one of those mosaic datasets they work, but if try to create a mosaic dataset of a bunch of those mosaic datasets the overviews and raw data don't appear.

It's like mosaic datasets are now smart enough to recognise the data is nearby and find them, but when you mosaic the mosaics you lose that capability.

I tried repairing paths and only the overviews are being remapped.   All the raw data is sitting as File Geodatabase Raster Datasets.  Those paths can't be fixed.

I've done this repairing before quite successfully in 10.1 with geotiffs and overviews.  

How come the mosaic datasets work initially?   I'm working with UNC addresses for all of this.
