Juggling high-explosives went well this weekend. The HP techs were able to get the new SAN enclosures in, get everything with updated firmware, and upgraded the management appliance into a non-broken state. No data loss! Though the extreme care exhibited by the techs, and having to rebuild the management appliance, ment we didn't get everything up until 40 minutes after our announced outage window. But it all got done! Yay!

Sadly, due to the time overrun, we were unable to check out the exchange bad-cluster thing.
