Disk Array

So I have 2 solaris sun servers one with a disk array with 14 drives which I need to move to the other server. How do I move the disk array configured as a Raid 5 to another server without losing data? So far I know I'll connect the drive, run devfsadm, use format to verify the server see's them. but then what?

thanks.

The answer to your question is not a simple one. I suggest you read the User's or Administrator's manual for the array and then pose a question based on that information.
