Migrating the mount points to another server

Hi,

I have implemented starwind in my env to create cluster lun's.Basically I have installed the software on a Physical box with a lot of free space of around 1.5TB. I have created luns and mapped them to different Clustered applications through iSCSI initiator.Now the server is out of space to extend the size of the luns further.Now I m planning to move the mount points to some other physical server with more HDD space. Basically we are using the starwind with Hyper-v machines.

So, someone can help to let me know, whether it is possible to move the mount points to some other server or not ?
If yes just briefly how the process will be.'
Even I m planning to install starwind on different server and from there mount the pre-existing .img files.

Absolutely. You just move .img files to the new data store and re-install StarWind there exporting existing .imgs as iSCSI targets. That's pretty much all.
