SolutionIf you cannot shutdown the server, the only way to copy the data is from within the operating system (kind of 'online' backup). If you're very lucky, the system is running with LVM setup and even has space left to do snapshots.

Re: Clone RAID 5 machine
1) build RAID5 on the new box using RAID utility you get with your server or RAID BIOS interface.
In fact, I guess, you have a few RAID volumes.
2) create linux partitions and clone your data from old machine. You can do it in a few ways - using plain tar, dd, ... or some Ghost-like software, for example http://www.mondorescue.org

Lots of options.
A good pay for option is acronis

It can even deal with different hardware where mondo sometimes gets stuck.

Re: Clone RAID 5 machine
You can use this to capture the image of your source server and deploy on to the target server. I guess its worth checking out as well. It would be better for larger scale deployments too.
