Subject: Re: [osol-discuss] Moving hard drive to new machine

I'd expect HBA driver changes, disk numbering (cXtXdX) and stuff like that.
For this you should add packages with drivers relevant to the new hardware,
before moving the disk - if you don't have a huge End-User cluster, that is.

You'd probably have to "touch /reconfigure" in order to recreate the /dev
directory
upon new boot.

If you have a ZFS root you might be on the safe side - if it can be imported
and read
at all, it is mounted regardless of /etc/vfstab and cXtXdX issues.

You can also make a snapshot before movement :)

HTH,
