Hi Team,
We are planning to move our OpenEdge 10.2A database files to new storage on the same server.
The database extents are currently located across /datos, /indices, /bimage, and /aimage.
Could you please provide the step-by-step procedure for this activity, including:

- Database and application shutdown steps
- Safe method to move the data, index, BI and AI extents
- Changes required if the mount-point names change
- Database and application startup steps
- Post-migration validation
- Rollback steps
- Expected downtime
Please also let us know what database and server details you need from us to prepare the procedure.

Multi-user session begin.
