Switching SAN storage
Hi,
I have an existing SUN server that has a SAN storage installed on it. It also has softwares like Appwrox(scheduler), Taradata (database client), Samba Share and a few more installed on it.
Now suppose that I have a new unix server server and i switch the same SAN store from the old unix box and attach it to the new unix box. Will all the software installed work as is or will I have to reinstall all of them?
Thanks.
