Thanks for the hint Simone, I may try the shortcut.
Alternatively would it be possible to use LVM tools VGExtent - PVMove and then 
remove to old LUN?
Do you see any problem when using LVM? This could even be done on a running 
system...

regards,
Arsene

Hi,
the proper way is trough backup/restore following 
https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/self-hosted/chap-Backing_up_and_Restoring_an_EL-Based_Self-Hosted_Environment/

If you want to try a shortcut, I'm pretty confident that if both the source FC 
LUN and the target one are correctly mapped on the relevant hosts, you could 
simply:

- set global maintenance mode
- shutdown the engine VM
- stop ovirt-ha-agent and ovirt-ha-broker on all the involved hosts
- copy the source LUN content over the target LUN with dd
- filter out the source LUN at multipath level
- restart the relevant services

Hi,

We are running HE on a separate FC LUN on a storage system which needs to be 
replaced, what would be the best method to move / copy that LUN to another FC 
LUN?
Do we need to redeploy HE with backup/restore DB?

Thanks for any hint.
regards,
Arsène
