Relocating AS/400's - any gotchas I haven't thought of?

I am planning on relocating two AS/400's from a remote location to my
location.  They each have three Token Ring cards.  IBM 5x94 remote
controllers connect to the first system.

When the machines arrive at the local site we know we will have to change
the IP address of the TR cards (and change the DNS server entries
accordingly), but since everyone should be accessing the AS/400's by
hostname (Client Access Express, FTP, ODBC, etc), this should not be a
problem.

Am I correct that the 5x94 controllers connect via the MAC address of the
TR card, so this should be no problem?

Are there any other potential 'gotchas' I may have missed here?  (We will
be all set with power, etc).

Any thoughts/suggestions/etc are welcome.
