As promised last year I having just completed a storage upgrade, I have sanitized my scripts and put them up on Github for other people to have a look at the methodology I use in these sorts of scenarios.
This time the upgrade involved pulling out all the existing disks and fitting large ones then restoring from backup, rather than synchronizing to a new system, but the principles are the same.
Bear in mind the code is written in Perl because it's history is ancient now and with few opportunities to test it in anger, rewriting it in the latest fashionable scripting language is unappealing.
