Move LUN from one storage group to another keeping data intact
I have a LUN that is currently in use by one server, and I want to take that LUN and attach it to another server, leaving the data intact.
Is there a way to do this?
If so, what would be the procedure?

If it's an AX-series system, does it run Navisphere Express or Navisphere Manager?
On a CX or an AX with Navisphere Manager, shut down the server that's using the LUN (or if it's linux/unix you can probably get away with unmounting the LUN). Then you remove the LUN from the server's storage group. After this you add the LUN to the storage group that contains the server that you want to add the LUN to. If you're running Windows you rescan in device manager for new devices and then under disk management you should be able to see the disk. You may have to assign a drive letter. If it's Linux or Unix you will have to rescan your storage adapter.
