[cisco-voip] CM4.1.3-move publisher

[Ed Leatherman]

would it be possible to pull a RAID drive and ship it to the new site?
I'm thinking maybe if you have another server of the same type you
could ship that over with the pulled hard drive, rebuild the RAID, and
then engineer some kinda cutover. never done it before myself but i've
pulled drives out occaisionally for backup purposes before an upgrade.
