Default Moving Zimbra Files to a new SAN

We have a SAN with a defective Chasis, we have a replacement SAN and would like to move the data over to the new SAN.

I would like a step by step on how to point Zimbra to the new location. We plan on moving the data using rsync, please let me know if there's a preferred method.

I have been reading that we can use zmcontrol, here's the output from running zmcontrol --list :

Volume id: 1
name: message1
type: primaryMessage
path: /opt/zimbra/store
compressed: false
current: true

Volume id: 2
name: index1
type: index
path: /opt/zimbra/index
compressed: false
current: true

Volume id: 3
name: index2
type: index
path: /data/opt/zimbra/index2
compressed: false
current: false

Volume id: 4
name: message2
type: secondaryMessage
path: /data/opt/zimbra/store2
compressed: false
current: true

Volume id: 5
name: remote
type: secondaryMessage
path: /remote/opt/zimbra/store
compressed: true threshold: 2048 bytes
current: false

There is also an option to edit these volumes under Zimbra Admin.

If there is any documentation on the wiki page that explains this, a link to the documentation will be sufficient.

Any information will be helpful.

Thanks in advance.

Is /opt/zimbra on the San as well and require moving, or just the message store?
