Yes, although you will probably need to reenter the client information for
each client into the Xsan Admin utility on your next access and may run into
some DNS issues if you're running DNS on your private network, which you are
not supposed to do (but I still see about 80% of the Xsan setups configured
to do).

If you are running an Open Directory master then yes.  As a general rule I
would use changeip any time you are changing the IP address of an OS X
Server.

Not at all.  The volume data is completely separate.

But here is the thing about changing the Ips of your private Xsan network.
Why?  Do they overlap with an existing range?  If not then I can't imagine
why it would matter enough to bother changing the ip addresses at all.
