  • Subject: install DASD a C.E.-only job?

  • Thread-Topic: install DASD a C.E.-only job?

Is it within the realm of possibility for me to install DASD and a 6501
card and get the AS/400 (9406, model 510, V3R7) to actually use it?  The
EMC DASD subsystem was actually installed into the expansion box (but
was never connected to the system) over a year ago, but we made a bad
assumption that we could attach it to another 6501 card which already
had the 3590 tape subsystem attached.  Now that we've got a spare 6501
card, and we're getting a little tight on disk space, we're itching to
get this installed.

Or is this C.E.-only territory?  IBM wants $200 per hour to do this,
which we would easily shell out for, but if this is a relatively simple
install without an *easy* opportunity to hose the system, then I'd like
to give it a go myself.
