Fair enough. I was trying to avoid wipe-and-restore, but I guess I
could end up doing that anyway if something goes bad, plus the added
time expense of a failed upgrade.
Obviously having a backup is crucial no matter what you do. However,
I can say that I have had good luck upgrading two separate instances
of Xsan that originally date back to version 1.0/1.2. The upgrades
happened as new patches and 2.0 became available, and have gone
smoothly.

It can take hours. Depends on your file set.
As a datapoint, I have/had volumes that are filled with 25TB worth of
small to mid-size files (text/html files to hi-res tiffs) that took
what was probably near 24 hours to upgrade the filesystem.
Good luck,
