AdvFS Filesystem question

Greetings all:

I have a fairly basic AdvFS question for all of you AdvFS experts. I am
looking doing a data migration from one EMC disk array to another one.
Because of various things, we are not going to use EMC's data migration
utilities. What I want to do is format some filesystems on an temporary
host, copy the data from one system to another, disconnect the temporary
host, and connect the other system up to the same drives.

Because I am switching hosts, I am guaranteed that my device names will
change. There is no way that I can match SCSI busses and ID's between the
two servers. I know that I can get away with this type of data transfer on
UFS, but I would like to format these disks AdvFS instead. Will I be able
to access my data once I switch from the temporary system to the system I
want the data on?

Thanks in advance,
