I have gigs of images on ext3 file system and I want to move them to Mogilefs on a live running site. In your opinion what would be the best approach?

I would test and document this in my lab first but the gist would be
- Schedule some downtime and ahead of that
- create my Mogilefs and mount it.
- copy the data onto it. and repeat as required to keep it up to date.
- During the downtime (in single user mode)
- unmount the current filesystem and the Mogilefs
- mount the Mogilefs where the original fs was
- bring the system back on line.
- Verify system was working
