I have a customer with a 3 server FOG that was running Sun VDI 3.0.  They have 
decided to move to VMware view and want to keep using their sunrays.  They are 
expanding and need to add another server for sunrays as well as upgrade from 
the old Sunray software that came in VDI 3 and move to 5.2.5.
Currently the servers are configured with a dedicated primary and 2 secondary 
servers.  I have run the utpreserve command on each of them and have the 
resulting files.  It was my hope to keep the old servers up and running while I 
implemented the new servers and simply migrate sunrays from one FOG to the 
other by changing DHCP settings.  So, my plan is this:
Build new servers with new hostnames and IP addresses on an isolated subnet.
Copy the utpreserve tar file from the old primary to the new primary server
Run UTSETUP on the new primary.
Copy the utpreserve tar files from the old secondary servers to the new ones
Run UTSETUP on the new secondary servers
Use UTGROUPSIG to change the group signature on each server (primary first)
Move the servers to the production IP subnet.
Add my new server to the FOG by running UTSETUP on it and following the prompts 
to make it a secondary server.
Then if I have done everything right  I should be able to begin migrating users 
to the new FOG.
Is this a valid plan?  Have I left out any steps?  Thanks for your help.
