Done either of what?

I was there when they moved from a 270 with IxA attached servers to a
520 with iSCSI attached 1U PCs yes.

It was just two PC servers.

And as I said, they rebuilt them manually rather than trying to migrate them.

That's what a former employer did with IxA servers. They did it the
hard way, by rebuilding the Win2K3 servers. IBM does offer a
migration service:

IXS/IXA to iSCSI migration utility:
IBM Lab Services is offering a migration utility that can take an
IXS/IXA based Windows 2003 Server image to an iSCSI based image. The
migration utility saves you from having to do a new operating system
install, reinstalling your applications and reconfiguring your server
back to its previous state. If you are interesting in taking advantage
of this utility, send an e-mail to intwin@xxxxxxxxxxx
