I might be able to do the VM move ahead of time. Disk/partition layout is such that I can convert a whole disk to LVM.

are you talking some sort of in place conversion or lift and shift?

This thing has two disks/arrays. I should be able to completely free one with minimal (~5min) downtime.

Then LVM it, create VM volume, tar/rsync rootfs into that, boot it and restore databases, ensure it works

sounds like a good plan, except if you don't have access to the machine and it doesn't boot or want to reboot

I'm not planning on rebooting the host until I get to the datacenter. And then I'll see if I can set up iLO.

Surprisingly none. It seems it was just used for spam via PHP last month.
