There is are tools that can help you (no doubt for a fee) but are destructive, so be sure you have your DR procedures nailed down first.

One tool I have used is Storix which will allow you to backup and when you come to restore you can adjust the volume group and filesystem layout.

It would, of course, be safer to restore to a blank server rather than to overwrite the original but it depends what you have available. Your DR vendor may also be able to work through this with you.




Kind regards,
Robin
