Need Help On Solaris Cluster Steps For San Migration

I am going to do a SAN Array migration and need the sequence of steps required on the Solaris cluster before moving the old array luns to new array luns.

Here are the steps and I need info on the bold pointsSmilie I might even be wrong on the sequence of steps please correct me if I am wrong)

1. need to move all the cluster services to a single node
2. perform host remediations on the node 2
3. reboot node 2 and move the cluster services to node 2
4. perform host remediations on node 1
5. reboot node 1 and move the cluster services to node 1, shutdown node 2
6. perform the cleanup steps to remove old array luns
7. make sure that the applications dont come back automatically on reboot
8. make necessary changes so that when we reboot the node 1 will be able to use new array luns( because after this step we will remove the old array luns and present new array luns)
9. shutdown node 1

10. start Array migration procedure from old array to new array
11. once we are comfortable with the percentage completed we can turn on node 1
12. turn on node 1 and mount the new volumes from new array
13. turn on node 2 and failover to node 2 to check cluster services are running properly
14 once everything looks fine( this finishes the migration)

NAME
clinfo - display cluster information SYNOPSIS
clinfo [-nh] DESCRIPTION
The clinfo command displays cluster configuration information about the node from which the command is executed. Without arguments, clinfo returns an exit status of 0 if the node is configured and booted as part of a cluster. Otherwise, clinfo returns an exit status of 1. OPTIONS
The following options are supported: -h Displays the highest node number allowed to be configured. This is different from the maximum number of nodes supported in a given cluster. The current highest configured node number can change immediately after the command returns since new nodes can be dynami- cally added to a running cluster. For example, clinfo -h might return 64, meaning that the highest number you can use to identify a node is 64. See the Sun Cluster 3.0 System Administration Guide for a description of utilities you can use to determine the number of nodes in a cluster. -n Prints the number of the node from which clinfo is executed. EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned: 0 Successful completion. 1 An error occurred. This is usually because the node is not configured or booted as part of a cluster. ATTRIBUTES
