If there is a safe way to do this, it usually involves Stop-A'ing the
kernel so there won't be any activity on the SCSI bus _while_ you're
changing the connectors around, and then continuing it when you're done.
(It's also a good idea to let the machine get quiet and sync it first.)

I used to do this all the time with SunOS back in the mid-90's and it
worked great. Then solaris came along and introduced "boot -r" (aiee!!)
and suddenly it became a royal pain in the ass to share our scarce Sun
CD-ROMs and tape drives...
