Moving Scalix data from local disk to SAN

Not sure this fits here, but it seems "install-ish".

I've got a moderately functional Scalix system running on a JBOD. I need to reconfigure it to run on the network SAN.

Anyone have any pointers or thoughts on doing this?

Use rsync with -avHS (at least), change the mountpoints, thats all.
As rsync can resume at any time and also knows a --delete switch one can manage to reduce the effective downtime to a couple of minutes
