If you try to boot from replicated san lun then you have a new wwid for this lun because it's not the same lun where you install rhel5. You need to hacketihack initrd with the new wwid from the repliacted lun i think inside the init script. Then you can make a new entry in grub.conf to boot from the replicated lun.
