Well - all depends.. you may have gotten lucky and the previous admin may have installed all software on the san storage - with no device files etc on local disk...
But... Chances are... not everything is on the san and 50% are on the local disk..
If you are still connected to the old server.. you are best to remove those packages and then re-install when on new server.. Thats my thought anyway unless anyone has any better idea's

SYNOPSIS
smbta-util
smbta-util [COMMANDS...]
DESCRIPTION
This tool is part of the samba(1) suite.
smbta-util is a tool to ease the configuration of the vfs_smb_traffic_analyzer module regarding data encryption.
The user can generate a key, install a key (activating encryption), or uninstall a key (deactivating encryption). Any operation that
installs a key will create a File containing the key. This file can be used by smbta-tool on other machines to install the same key from
the file.
COMMANDS
-h
Show a short help text on the command line.
-f KEYFILE
Open an existing keyfile, read the key from the file, and install the key, activating encryption.
-g KEYFILE
Generate a new random key, install the key, activate encryption, and store the key into the file KEYFILE.
-u
Uninstall the key, deactivating encryption.
-s
Check if a key is installed.
-c KEYFILE
Create a KEYFILE from an installed key.
VERSION
This man page is correct for version 3.4 of the Samba suite.
AUTHOR
The original version of smbta-util was created by Holger Hetterich.
The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open
Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
