Hi,

We have running Oracle Linux 6.4 on HP 3PAR SAN LUN. Existing SAN LUN to be decommissioned, and new SAN LUN desired to become boot device. Is there anyway we can utilize Clonezilla Live to clone LUN to LUN and boot the server from new LUN.

Appreciate your suggestions.

Thanks,

This really depends on the LUN device name on GNU/Linux.
If it's supported by Clonezilla, like /dev/sd[a-z], /dev/cciss/*, then you could boot Clonezilla live then configure your LUN then save it.

  Thank you, Steven for your inputs. I will give a try on it this week in one of the non-prod server.
