Hi @lalajee ,
Agree with Andy, and here is a similar case that you could refer to:

Ensure internal DNS are valid and external DNS is updated as well as any firewall rules.
If the IPs of the servers are staying the same, then really no other changes are needed.
Please correct me if i'm wrong
On our domain hosting (e.g. godaddy) provider I need to update the MX record to point to new public ip address of the data centre
Open any firewall ports
We move the exchange server to new datacentre
Thats it or anything else is needed
If the external IPs are the same then you dont need to do this. Otherwise, yes, update the mx records if the external IPs change
External ip will be different
Ok, then update the mx records and PTR record of any sending mail server in external DNS.
Verify the SPF record as well
