Hi everyone,

Can someone provide some direction on how to migrate a 2 node Exchange 2007
SCC to a new SAN?

Thanks!

The least risky method of moving Exchange is to build a new server and
moving mailboxes, public folders, connectors, etc.

If you can mount LUNs from both SANs simultaneously, you could use the
native database and storage group move cmdlets.

Or, you could shut down the Exchange services, then move the database and
log files between the SANs, map the new LUNs with the same drive letters or
mount points as witht he old SAN, and then restart the services.
