Whoa! Don't do that. Upgrade to CentOS 7, or go back to the other machine. You didn't mention switching machines, btw. That would explain the different drive names vs. roles. You need to document the device names vs. drive serial numbers on the current setup before moving or upgrading. Then adjust the names worked out above based on the serial numbers in the new environment. In general, device names cannot be considered reliable -- that's why labels and uuids are the preferred way to identify things in today's systems. And why mdadm has superblocks to keep track of what's what. And when you have your system fully running again, document the entire layout with lsdrv [1].
