Since you have a spare server to use just in case . . . do a trial run. Recover to that server and bring it up to see if what you did works. You could recover to it, disconnect it from the network, and boot it up. That way you could test without interfering with the running server. I did this with a similar situation I have, and it helped me uncover some complications that I would have to deal with. Your combination is probably somewhat different than mine, so your complications may differ.
