[ale] Suse 9.3 and fiber storage

I have a bunch of Suse 9.3 servers with various apps that need to be
migrated to RHEL 5 or 6.
I have back end SANs attached via QLogic hbas.
How do I verify how the attached storage is mounted (ie, this mount is
remote via the hba).
There is no /etc/mulitpath.conf
What I am looking for is a way I can get info and make a "map" that I
can duplicate on the new OS. The new storage will be entirely new
partitions/luns on completely different LUNs, but the "structure" might
need to be the same, ie: /somemount is 17G /somemount2 is 15G etc.
/dev/disk/by-* has by-id and by-uuid and by-path.
I know this is both rather simple and broad, but I have zero fiber/HBA
experience and it would appear I don't know the proper search terms to
google.
If it matters the back end is (old) is a Hitachi and I don't know the
front end. I will not be tasked with slicing up the LUNs, but reporting
what sizes I need them to be, then mounting the partitions with the
proper mount points on the new OS.
