How to Move FSA from Physical Server to CIFS Share

I am aware of Article# 000039615 - How to move File System Archiving (FSA) to a new server with the same name - but this does not apply to a CIFS share. We want to shut down a physical file server and move the data over to a CIFS share. The share name has to remain the same as the physical server due to app's that need the share name. What would be the best way to get the data over to the CISFS share?

    Details about your physical file server - Its a 2008 Physical Server with the data drive a Snapdrive lun mapped to the server.
