How long is your downtime going to be to move Exchange and Unity?  Unless it
is extraodinarily long, I would not bother reconfiguring Unity just for a
small migration window.

Perhaps you can setup an IVR script with a maintenance message and
temporarily point the Unity pilot to the IVR.  You do have the five free
ports.....

Moving the Pub is a good idea to maintain dialtone.
