  • Subject: Disk upgrade and IOP compatibility - followup

Thanks to all who offered advice.

I found no help for this and I'm now back to my original drives.

I installed the latest CUM & DB group ptfs.

I called for an IBM service call (at hi$), talked to the CE (or whatever
they're called now) on the phone, hopefully before I get a huge bill, and he
recommended a new ptf package - MF23265 (v4r4) or MF23266 (v4r5) - which
just came out and specifically addresses the new bigger 10K drives.  And,
plundering around pretty deep in SST, I did find that the reported 675A is
really a 2745 IOP.  This is pretty new, I believe, and is reportedly a
really good controller.  Must've got it when I upgraded my CPU a couple
months ago...they are on the same backplane now.

Looks like another weekend shot all to ___ in the next couple weeks, when I
try this again.

Thanks again.....
