You can use dd (Linux) to copy the D3 partition data.

I definitely works. I usually have Pick in a logical volume first.
Then use dd to copy it to a regular file, ftp that file to a new
machine and use dd to copy
it back to a logical volume. Of course, you still need to install pick
the standard way and copy over the pick0 file before you boot.

The only issue was that the licenses got wiped out and I had to
reactivate.

dd if=/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-Pick00 of=/tmp/Pick00 bs=32M

sftp /tmp/Pick00 to another Linux server

dd if=/tmp/Pick00 of=/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-Pick00 bs=32M
